Answer:

12 fish

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to work this problem backwards. If he caught 30 fish, which was six more than twice the number he caught last year, you would start by subtracting six, leaving you with 24. Then you'd have to divide by 2, because it was twice plus six as many fish, which would give you 12 fish.

\frac{30-6}{2} = x

\frac{24}{2} = x

12 = x

Answer:

g(-1)=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Put value of x, which is - 1

g(x) = 3 - 2x \\ g( - 1) = 3 - 2( - 1) \\ g( - 1) = 3 + 2 \\ g( - 1) = 5

Need help with dilation with a scale factor of 1/2 centered at (−1, 3)
Studentka2010 [4]

A scale factor of 1/2 makes the triangle half the size of the original.


The original is 4 units tall, so 1/2 scale makes the new one 2 units tall.

It is 6 units long, so 1/2 would be 3 units long.


Now since the scale factor is centered at (-1,3) fine the midpoint between The top left corner of the triangle and the center point:


Midpoint ( -1-5/2 , 3+7/2)

Midpoint = (-6/2 , 10/2)

Midpoint = -3,5


This is where the top left corner of the scaled triangle would be.
