The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (–5, –1) and (10, –7) is y + 7 = (x – 10). What is the stan

Crank

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given coordinates of the line passed through (–5, –1) and (10, –7) .

Applying slope formula,

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-5,\:-1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(10,\:-7\right)$

Therefore,

$m=\frac{-7-\left(-1\right)}{10-\left(-5\right)}$

$m=-\frac{2}{5}$

Therefore, slope is $m=-\frac{2}{5}$ .

Applying point-slope form $y-y_1=m(x-x_1),$ we get

$y+7 = -\frac{2}{5}(x-10)$

$y+7=-\frac{2}{5}(x-10)$

On multiplying both sides by 5, we get

$5(y+7)=5\times-\frac{2}{5}(x+1)$

5y+35=-2(x-10)

5y+35=-2x+20

Adding 2x on both sides, we get

5y+25+2x=-2x+20+2x

2x+5y+35=20

Subtracting 35 from both sides, we get

2x+5y+35-35=20-35

2x+5y=-15.

Therefore, required equation is :

Which statement about a dilation with a scale factor of 3 is true?

Valentin [98]

Given : dilation with a scale factor of 3

To find : Which statement is true

Solution:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size

if Dilation factor N then image Size is multiplied by N

if Scale factor < 1 then image get reduced

if scale factor > 1 then image get enlarged

scale factor = 1 lead to Same size image

Here is given that Scale factor of 3

=> image will be enlarged to 3 times the original image

Hence correct option is :

C)Each side in the pre-image is multiplied by three to find the corresponding side length in the image
