Suppose that X is a vertical segment that lies on the y-axis with its beginning at origin and ending at the point (0,4). Then the length of this segment is 4 units.
If you vertically compress this segment by factor of 1/4 with the centre of compression at the origin, you recieve a segment that also lies on the y-axis with its beginning at origin and ending at the point (0,1) (the length of this image segment is 1 unit).
So, the question is: if a segment that lies on the y-axis with its beginning at origin and ending at the point (0,4) is vertically compressed <span>by factor of 1/4 with the centre of compression at the origin, what is the image of this transformation?

Because 28 is divisible by 4 ( because 28÷4=7), we have 4/9 = 28/63;
The correct answer is 28.
3(2y + 4) = 4(2y - 1/2)
Distributive property on both sides.
5y + 12 = 8y - 2
+2
5y + 14 = 8y
-5y
14 = 3y
/3
y = 4.66
the area of the tile is 24 in^2
