Triangle ABC is graphed on a coordinate grid with vertices at A (-2, -4), B (2, -4) and C (0, 2). Triangle ABC is dilated by a s

cale factor of x with the origin as the center of dilation to create triangle A’B’C with the vertices A’ (-1, -2), B’(1, -2), C’ (0, 1).
Which rule best represents the dilation that was applied to Triangle ABC to create A’B’C’?

(x, y) (2x, 2y)

(x, y) (0.2x, 0.2y)

(x, y) (12x, 12y)

(x, y) (14x, 14y)

Answer:

The rule which best represents the dilation that was applied to Triangle ABC to create A’B’C’ will be:

(x, y) → (1/2x, 1/2y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertices of a triangle

  • A(-2, -4)
  • B(2, -4)
  • C(0, 2)

After the dilation, the vertices of an image triangle be

  • A' (-1, -2)
  • B '(1, -2)
  • C' (0, 1)

If we closely observe, we can notice that the image triangle vertices A'B'C' are half of the original triangle ABC.

i.e. (x, y) → (1/2x, 1/2y)

verification

A(-2, -4) → A'(-2/2, -4/2) = A'(-1, -2)

B(2, -4) → B'(2/2, -4/2) = B'(1, -2)

C(0, 2) → C'(0/2, 2/2) = C'(0, 1)

Thus, it is verified and we conclude that the rule which best represents the dilation that was applied to Triangle ABC to create A’B’C’ will be:

  • (x, y) → (1/2x, 1/2y)

Find the surface area of the cylinder in terms of pi.<br><br> Height = 8 in<br> Diameter = 4in
irga5000 [103]
1) the area of the "side" of the cylinder is A1= pi (4 in).
2) the total area of the circular ends of the cyl. is A2 = 2 pi (2 in)^2 (since the radius of the cyl. is 2 in).

The desired total surface area is A = A1 + A2.  Keep "pi;" do not substitute a numerical value for "pi."

Write quadratic equation whose roots are 1 and -3 and whose leading coefficient is 4
Mila [183]

Answer:

4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first write it in factor form.

4(x - 1)(x + 3) = 0

4(x^2 + 2x - 3) = 0

4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0 (answer).

Malachi bought a new fishing rod. The regular price of the fishing rod was $125.99. He bought it on sale with a 15% discount. Sa
Volgvan

If the discount is 15 percent, he still pays (100-15) or 85%

125.99 * 85%

125.99 * .85 = 107.09  is the price he pays for the rod

107.09 * .03 =3.21 is the sales tax

107.09+3.21=110.30 is the price of the rod with the discount and the tax

Tennessee Whisky contains 40% alcohol; how many ml of whiskey can be produced with 80ml of alcohol?
anygoal [31]

well we know that we have 80mL and we also know that those 80mL will represent the "solute" or the 40% of the Tennessee whiskey total which we can say is 100%, so if 80 is the 40%, how much will it be for the 100% in mL?

\begin{array}{ccll}mL&\%\\\cline{1-2}80&40\\x&100\end{array}\implies \cfrac{80}{x}=\cfrac{40}{100}\implies \cfrac{80}{x}=\cfrac{2}{5}\implies 400=2x\\\\\\ \cfrac{400}{2}=x\implies \underset{mL}{200}=x
