Answer:
B)
Step-by-step explanation:
Y intercept:
Simply substitute all the x values with 0:
When x = 0:
3(0) - 2y = 18
Move the - 2y over to the other side making it a +2y:
0 = 18 + 2y
Move the +18 over to the other side making it a -18:
-18 = 2y
Divide both sides by 2:
-9 = y
So y intercept is:
<h3> (0 , -9)</h3>X - intercept:
Simply substitute all the Y's with 0:
3x - 3(0) = 18
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3:
x = 6
So the X intercept is:
<h3>(6 , 0)</h3>This means that your guess of B is correct.

Answer: No, your friend is not correct. You cannot use a similarity transformation to turn a square into a rectangle. Here's why:
1) If you used a similarity transformation, the size and position of the shape would change, but the shape itself remains the same.
2) Squares and rectangles are NOT similar.* Referring to the first point I listed, if the shapes are not similar, then a similarity transformation cannot be used to turn one shape into another.
<em>*Similar means that the edges are proportional to one another, such as a square with sides of 4 meters vs a square with sides of 2 meters: the sides are different lengths, but the shape is the same.</em>
I hope this helps! Please feel free to comment below if you need any clarification. Have a good day, and good luck on your assignment. :)
