Answer:

  • scale factor: 3
  • rule: (x, y) ⇒ (3x +15, 3y -24)
  • center: (-7.5, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor can be found by comparing the length of CB to the length of RQ.

  B-C = (-2, 8) -(-4, 9) = (2, -1)

  Q-R = (9, 0) -(3, 3) = (6, -3)

The length of RQ is clearly 3 times the length of CB, so the scale factor (k) is ...

  ratio of corresponding differences = 6/2 = -3/-1 = 3 . . . . . scale factor

__

We know that for dilation about a point O, the distance from O is multiplied by the scale factor. For dilation of point B to point Q, this means ...

  k(B -O) = (Q -O)

Solving for Q, we get ...

  Q = kB -kO +O . . . . this is what our dilation rule will look like.

The quantity O-kO can be found by subtracting kB:

  Q -kB = O -kO = O(1 -k)

This is what we need for our dilation rule.

  Q -kB = (9, 0) -3(-2, 8) = (9+6, 0-24) = (15, -24)

So, our dilation rule is ...

  (x, y) ⇒ k(x, y) +(15, -24)

  (x, y) ⇒ (3x +15, 3y -24) . . . . . dilation rule

__

The center of dilation can be found from ...

  (Q -kB)/(1 -k) = O

  O = (15, -24)/(1 -3) = (-7.5, 12)

The center of dilation is (-7.5, 12).

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

On the graph, the center of dilation can be found by drawing a line through a point and its image. (Points are always dilated along a line through the center of dilation.) The intersection of two such lines is the center of dilation.

On this graph, the center is just above the top edge of the chart, at point (-7.5, 12). You can see this if you carefully draw lines BQ and AP.

You usually have coordinates for two original points and two image points, so finding the scale factor the way we did is not difficult. If you just have one point on the original and the image, the scale factor is found by finding their distances from the center of dilation. Each image point is k times as far as each original point from that center.

Curtis paid $80 on the vet bill for his dog. Then the vet charged him $40 more for his dog's medicine. If he now owes the vet $1
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

He paid 80 at the start, so his starting must have been 80

Step-by-step explanation:

80+40=120...

so either 0, or 80 because he owed nothing, or he owed the 80, then the 40 for medication

I hope this helps!

Y = f(x) = 2^x
Virty [35]

Answer:

The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5

Therefore f(-1)=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y=f(x)=2^x

to find the f(x) when x=-1 :

That is to find f(-1)

Put x=-1 in the given function f(x)=2^x

f(-1)=2^{-1}

=\frac{1}{2}

=0.5

Therefore f(-1)=0.5

The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5
