Answer:

2) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, translation, rotation and dilation.

Dilation is the enlargement or reduction of the size of an object. If a figure with point A(x, y) is dilated by a scale factor of k about the center of the origin, the new point would be at (kx, ky). If k < 1 it is a reduction and if k > 1 it is an enlargement.

The octagon ABCDEFGH has vertices at A(3, 1), B(3, -1), C(1, -3), D(1, -3), E(-3, -1), F(-3, 1), G(-1,3) and H(1, 3)

Octagon ABCDEFGH is then dilated about the origin to form octagon A'B'C'D'E'F'G'H' with vertices at A'(6, 2), B'(6, -2), C'(2, -6), D'(2, -6), E'(-6, -2), F'(-6, 2), G'(-2,6) and H'(2, 6)

A = (3, 1) and A' = (6, 2) = [2(3), 2(1)]

Therefore octagon ABCDEFGH was dilated by a scale factor of 2 to form octagon A'B'C'D'E'F'G'H'

the numbers of girls in the choir is 4 times the number of boys in the choir .the total number of students is 60..how many girls

Inessa05 [86]

First, make up some variables to represent the number of Girls and Boys in the choir.

B = number of boys
G = number of girls

You know that there are 4 times as many girls in the choir as boys. Therefore, the equation you can write is:
$\frac{B}{G} = \frac{1}{4}$

If you cross-multiply, then you get the simplified equation:
G = 4B

Intuitively this makes sense since if you multiplied the number of boys in the class by 4, that would be equal to the number of girls you have.

Now, we know that the total class size is 60. So girls plus boys equals 60:
G+B = 60

To solve the equation, replace the G in this equation with the replacement you found before, 4B.
G + B = 60 -->
4B + B = 60 -->
5B = 60 -->
B = 12

However, you are trying to find the number of girls, so plug the answer back into your equation.
G + B = 60 -->
G + 12 = 60 -->
G + 12 -12 = 60 - 12 -->
G = 48

The number of girls you have is 48.
