Answer:
The scale factor is not 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for the dilated triangles
Triangle ABC is dilated through center point O to form triangle A'B'C'.
From the attachment, we have:
i.e. the distance from the center point to C
and
i.e. the distance from the center point to C'
The length of OC' is calculated using:
The scale factor (k) is then calculated by dividing OC' by OC
Hence, Tiffany's claim is incorrect.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The division problem given to us is .
To perform the synthetic division, we write out the coefficient of the polynomial. We set the linear factor to zero and solve for x, this becomes our divisor. That is .
We carry out the synthetic division as shown in the attachment.
The result of the synthetic division is 4 -27 167 -996
The first three terms are the coefficients of the quotient and the last term is the remainder.
Therefore the quotient is and the remainder is
.
The dividend, the quotient and the divisor are written as
The correct answer is A
