The problem asked you to calculate the slope of the dilated polygon which is dilated by a scale factor of 3. So, the slope of BC is 5/2 or -5/-2 and the dilated polygon has a the same slope of the original polygon.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
about 2 pounds
1 pound is 453.6 grams
18×50=900
900/453.6=1.98
which we would round up to 2
Conrad should defrost about 2 pound of veggie burger mix
9,471 divided by 8 is 1183.875. The image I've provided pretty much shows you the place values. The rest is self-explanatory.
The vertices for the dilated image can be found by multiplying the coordinates of the original image by the scale factor. In this problem, the scale factor is 1/3.
(0,0) ⇒ 0 x 1/3 = 0 ; 0 x 1/3 = 0 ⇒ (0,0)
(27,0) ⇒ 27 x 1/3 = 9 ; 0 x 1/3 = 0 ⇒ (9,0)
(36,30) ⇒36 x 1/3 = 12 ; 30 x 1/3 = 10 ⇒ (12,10)
(9,30) ⇒ 9 x 1/3 = 3 ; 30 x 1/3 = 10 ⇒ (3,10)
Answer is choice D. (3,10)
x = 4
because it is perpendicular, the new equation has to be a vertical since the original was horizontal. We know that it passes through (4,-2) so it has to be x=4
