I beleive the answer is D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B. The student incorrectly calculated the scale factor to be –2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
After a dilation with a center of (0, 0), a point was mapped as (4, –6) → (12, y).
The student determined y to be -2
If a figure dilated with a center of (0, 0) and scale factor k, then
(x , y) → (kx , ky)
(4, -6) → (12, y)


k = 3
Thus; the scale factor is 3
Now; the y-coordinate can now be calculated as;
ky = (3 × -6)
ky = -18
Therefore; the value of y = -18 and the student incorrectly calculated the scale factor to be -2.
Let the two required numbers be x and 100 - x, then
Sum of its squares is given by S = x^2 + (100 - x)^2
For the sum of the squares to be minimum, dS/dx = 0
dS/dx = 2x - 2(100 - x) = 0
2x - 200 + 2x = 0
4x = 200
x = 50.
The two numbers is 50 and 50.
