Best to find the equation of the parabola first:
Its equation is y+12.5 = (x+1.5)^2, or y = -12.5 + (x+1.5)^2
Check the first possible x-intercept:  let x = -2.  Does y come out to 0?
y = -12.5 + (-0.5)^2  =  -12.5 + 0.25.  This is not equal to 0, so (-2,0) is not an x-intercept of this parabola.  Continue checking each possible x-intercept until you find the right one (or ones).
        
             
        
        
        
Metallic ribbon: 16$ for 4ft
Dividing both sides by four, we get:
1 feet -- 4 dollars
White ribbon 3$ for 1 feet
1 feet -- 3 dollars
<h2><u><em>
Therefore, the Metallic ribbon costs more per feet.</em></u></h2>

Answer:
On a coordinate plane, triangle A B C has points (4, 4), (7, 8), (10, 4). ... Hence, the scale factor is 2 and one-half( ).
Step-by-step explanation:
The center of dilation is a fixed point in the plane. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement (a stretch). If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction (a shrink). If the scale factor is 1, the figure and the image are congruent.
