Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

If a point is dilated by a scale factor of 'k' about the origin,

Rule for the dilation,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

By this rule, if ΔABC is dilated to form image triangle as ΔA'B'C',

A(-2, -2) → A'[2×(-2), 2×(-2)]

B(-1, 2) → B'[2×(-1), 2×(2)]

C(2, 1) → C'[2×(2), 2×(1)]

Therefore, scale factor of the dilation of the dilation will be k = 2

Option (C) will be the answer.

wel
You always start by simplifying.
6b-49=2<span>(</span>b-3) becomes 6b-49=2b-6
From there you can group the b's together by subtracting 2b from both sides, leaving you with 4b-49=-6
Now you can get the b's alone by adding 49 (to cancel out -49) to both sides, giving you 4b=43, You're still trying to get b by itself, so what you'll do is divide both sides by 4, giving you b=10.75

Mandarinka [93]
It went from 10 to -2, so you need to find the difference. The way you'd do this is: 10 - (-2). Do you know how to subtract a negative number from a positive number?

When 8 is subtracted from Ollie’s age, the result is the same as subtracting 16 from 3 times his age.
Scilla [17]
X - Ollie's age

8 is subtracted from Ollie's age = x-8
the result is the same as
subtracting 16 from 3 times his age = 3x-16

x-8=3x-16 \\&#10;x-3x=-16+8 \\&#10;-2x=-8 \\&#10;x=4

Ollie is 4 years old.

Use differentials to estimate the amount of metal in a closed cylindrical can that is 26 cm high and 10 cm in diameter if the me
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The estimated amount of metal in the can is 87.96 cubic cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the differential of volume from the volume of a cylinder equation given by

V= \pi r^2 h

Thus that way we will find the amount of metal that makes up the can.

Finding the differential.

A small change in volume is given by:

dV =\cfrac{\partial V}{\partial h} dh + \cfrac{\partial V}{\partial r} dr

So finding the partial derivatives we get

dV =\pi r^2 dh + \pi 2r h dr

dV =\pi r^2 dh + 2\pi r h dr

Evaluating the differential at the given information.

The height of the can is h = 26 cm, the diameter is 10 cm, which means the radius is half of it, that is r = 5 cm.

On the other hand the thickness of the side is 0.05 cm that represents dr = 0.05 cm, and the thickness on both top and bottom is 0.3 cm, thus dh = 0.3 cm +0.3 cm which give us 0.6 cm.

Replacing all those values on the differential we get

dV =\pi 5^2 (0.6) + 2\pi (5) (26) (0.05)

That give us

V= 28 \pi  \, cm^3

Or in decimal value

\boxed{dV= 87.96 \, cm^3}

Thus the volume of metal in the can is 87.96 cubic cm.
