Answer:

D. x = -2y + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 8y = 16

Solve for x

Our objective here is to isolate x ( in other words we want to get x by itself ) using inverse operations.

So let's begin

4x + 8y = 16

First we want to get rid of 8y

Notice how 8y is being added to 4x

Well we can get rid of it by applying it's inverse operation. The opposite of addition is subtraction. So to get rid of 8y we would simply subtract 8y.

Important note! Whatever we do to one side we must do to the other

So we would subtract 8y from both sides

4x + 8y - 8y = 16 - 8y

The 8y on the left hand side cancels out and the 8y on the right side stays as it is as you can't subtract 8y from 16

We then have 4x = 16 - 8y

Next we want to get rid of 4 from 4x.

4x is the same as 4*x which is multiplication

The inverse of multiplication is division so to get rid of the 4 we divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = (16-8y)/4

4x/4 = x

16-8y/4 ( simply divide 16 by 4 and -8y by 4 )

16-8y/4 = 4 - 2y

We're left with x = 4 - 2y which can also be written as x = -2y + 4

Draw the image of the figure with the given vertices under a dilation with the given scale factor centered at the origin j(-2,2)

Elenna [48]

Answer:

See Attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

To create the new figure, we must multiply each coordinate by the scale factor, which is 1/2 in this case.

So j(-2,2) becomes j'(-1,1)

K(4,2) becomes K'(2,1)

L(4,-2) becomes L'(2,-1)

and M (-2,-2) becomes M'(-1,-1)

The scale factor is between 1 and 0 which means that this dilation is a reduction that will shrink the original figure to a smaller one.
