Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

3(x - 2) + 8 = 2(x + 5)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. (Parenthesis) Distribute:                                                                               3x - 6 + 8 = 2x + 10
  2. Combine like terms:                                                                                     3x + 2 = 2x + 10
  3. {Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides:                    x + 2 = 10
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides:                      x = 8

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                                                                               3(8 - 2) + 8 = 2(8 + 5)
  2. (Parenthesis) Subtract/Add:                                                                         3(6) + 8 = 2(13)
  3. Multiply:                                                                                                         18 + 8 = 26
  4. Add:                                                                                                               26 = 26

Here we see that 26 does indeed equal 26.

∴ x = 8 is the solution to the equation.

4) The first and second terms for both ratios need to be in the same order.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio is:

16:36

In order to find any ratio equivalent to given ratio, the ratio can be divided by a number or multiplied to a number.

The equivalent ratio that is given: 72:32

If we multiply the given ratio by 2: We get 32:72

So,

Looking at the options we can conclude that the right answer is

4) The first and second terms for both ratios need to be in the same order.

Select all the statements that are true
masya89 [10]

Answer:

Options 2, 4 and 6 are True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle MNO is dilated by a scale factor of \frac{3}{2} centered at M(0, 6).

Rule to be followed to dilate the vertices of the given triangle,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

Here, k = scale factor

By this rule vertices of the new triangle M'N'O' will be,

M(0, 6) → M'(0, 6) [Coordinates of M' will remain same as M because center of dilation is point M]

N(-4, -4) → N'(-6, -6)

O(6, -2) → O'(9, -3)

Option 1

M'N' is shorter than MN

Distance between M and N = \sqrt{(0+4)^2+(6+4)^2}

                                              = 10.77

Distance between M' and N' = \sqrt{(0+6)^2+(6+6)^2}

                                                = 13.42

Therefore M'N' > MN

Therefore, Option A is False.

Option 2

ON is shorter than O'N'

True.

Option 3

OM is longer than O'M'

False

Option 4

ON is parallel to O'N'

Since OM and MN are dilated with the same scale factor, O'N' will be parallel to ON.

True.

Option 5

OM is parallel than O'M'

Since, O'M' is the dilated form of OM,

Therefore, all the points (O, M and M') will be in a straight line.

False

Option 6

M'N' coincide with MN

True.

Therefore, Options 2, 4 and 6 are True.
