Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

dilation often means multiplying. it says "dilation of the larger triangle"

the larger triangle has a side of 6 units.

the smaller triangle has a side of 3 units.

if you multiply 6 by 0.5, you get 3.

even though the number gets smaller, you are still multiplying.

now, if it said "dilation of the smaller triangle," we'd have a different answer. in that case, we would have to divide 6 by 3 to get 2.

the answer is 1/2

Answer:

$n \geq -\frac{-29}{28}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-3(1 - 7n) \geq -32 - 8n\\-3 + 21n \geq -32 -8n\\$

+8n +8n

$-3 + 28n \geq -32\\+3 +3\\28n \geq -29\\/28 /28\\n \geq \frac{-29}{28}$

Which function has x-intercepts of 3 and 8 and contains the point (–1, –2)?

mojhsa [17]

This is how you do it.

y = a(x - 3)(x - 8)
-2 = a(-1 - 3)(-1 - 8) 
-2 = 36a 
- 1 / 18 = a 
y = ( - 1 / 18)(x^2 - 11x + 24) 
y = (- 1 / 18)x^2 + (11 / 18)x - (3 / 2)

If this doesn't explain it enough, please, ask questions.

Which of the following is a complex number? (Look at picture)

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a complex number is a number that can be expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers, and i is a symbol, called the imaginary unit, that satisfies the equation i² = −1. Because no real number satisfies this equation, i was called an imaginary number by René Descartes.

sandy has several pichters.2 pitchers hold 64 ounces each and 4 pichers hold 48 ounces each.how mant ounces can sandys pitcher h

vfiekz [6]

To answer this question you you start by writing the equation. (2*64)+(4*48)= Next, you answer the first parenthesis: 2 times 64... this is 128....now you have 128+(4*48)=... now you answer the next set of parenthesis.... 4 times 48....this is 192...now you have 128+192=.....this is 320...............So the answer to your question is sandys pitcher can hold 320 ounces alltogether.
