Answer:

\displaystyle =\frac{0.5\text{ ft}}{\text{day}}

The weed grows at a rate of 0.5 feet per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weed grows at a rate of 0.25 inches per hour.

And we want to convert this rate into feet per day.

We have that:

\displaystyle \frac{0.25\text{ in}}{\text{hr}}

We knowt that there are 12 inches in one foot.

And since we want to cancel the inches, we can write our conversion factor as ft / 12 in.

We also know that there are 24 hours in one day.

And since we want to cancel the hours, we can write our conversion factor as 24 hr / day.

Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{0.25\text{ in}}{\text{hr}}\cdot\frac{\text{ft}}{12\text{ in}}\cdot \frac{24\text{ hr}}{\text{day}}

Multiply and cancel common terms. So:

\displaystyle =\frac{0.5\text{ ft}}{\text{day}}

The weed grows at a rate of 0.5 feet per day.

Polygon ABCD, shown in the figure, is dilated by a scale factor of 8 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the
saveliy_v [14]
C = (5,4)

D = (4,2)

Dilation with factor 8 => for the same x, y increase by a factor of 8

=> C' = (5, 8*4) = (5, 32)

=> D' = (4, 8*2) = (4, 16)

slope of C'D' = [32 - 16] / [5 -4 ] =16

You can also see that the slope of CD = [4 - 2] / [5 - 4] = 2

Then, the new slope is 8 times the old slope, this is it was multiplied by the same factor, 8.
