Step-by-step explanation:
Check the value of the discriminant
Δ = b² - 4ac
• If b² - 4ac > 0 then roots are real
• If b² - 4ac = 0 roots are real and equal
• If b² - 4ac < 0 then roots are not real
given (x - a)(x - b) = k² ( expand factors )
x² - bx - ax - k² = 0 ( in standard form )
x² + x(- a - b) - k² = 0
with a = 1, b = (- a - b), c = -k²
b² - 4ac = (- a - b)² + 4k²
For a, b, k ∈ R then (- a - b)² ≥ 0 and 4k² ≥ 0
Hence roots of the equation are always real for a, b, k ∈ R
I believe the correct answers would be A & C
Alright, so we have the difference = 4500-2800=1700. To find the percent increase, we do 1700/2800=around 0.61 = around 61% percent
Answer:
D) (x, y) → (1/3x , 1/3 y)
Step-by-step explanation:
A dilation is a change of size, if the dilation factor is greater than 1, then the figure is enlarged. If the dilation factor is smaller than 1, the figure is shrinked. In both cases, the coordinates are MULTIPLIED by the dilation factor.
Among the 4 choices, only 2 are dilations. One is with a dilation factor of 3 (A), which means the shape was enlarged. And the other is with dilation factor of 1/3, meaning the shape was shrinked.
Since we went from MNOP (LARGE one) to M'N'O'P' (small one), the dilation factor was < 1... so 1/3 is the answer.
Answers B and C show a translation/movement of the shape, not a dilation.
