Given:

The preimage and image of a triangle in the given figure.

To find:

The dilation scale factor.

Solution:

From the given figure it is clear that the vertices of the triangle ABC are A(-2,-2), B(-1,2) and C(2,1).

The vertices of the triangle A'B'C' are A'(-4,-4), B'(-2,4) and C'(4,2).

If a figure is dilated by factor K with (0,0) as the center of dilation, then

(x,y)\to (kx,ky)

Let the scale factor be K, then the image of point A is:

A(-2,-2)\to A'(k(-2),k(-2))

A(-2,-2)\to A'(-2k,-2k)

From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is A'(-4,-4).

A'(-2k,-2k)=A'(-4,-4)

On comparing both sides, we get

-2k=-4

k=\dfrac{-4}{-2}

k=2

Therefore, the dilation scale factor is 2.

Anyone knows the answer
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:C

Step-by-step explanation:

3.1 x 10^(-4) x 8.5 x 10^(-2)

3.1 x 8.5 x 10^(-4) x 10^(-2)

26.35 x 10^(-4-2)

26.35 x 10^(-6)

2.635 x 10^1 x 10^(-6)

2.635 x 10^(1-6)

2.635 x 10^(-5)

Is Frieda’s work correct? Explain how she can check her solution.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Frieda's work is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

z+22= 64 can also be z= 64-22

64-22= 42

Meaning, z= 42

42+22-22= 64-22

42= 42
