Given:

The scale factor is s=\dfrac{1}{3} and the center of dilation is at the point (4,2).

Red is original figure and green is dilated figure.

To find:

The coordinates of point C' and point A.

Solution:

Rule of dilation: If a figure is dilated with a scale factor k and the center of dilation is at the point (a,b), then

(x,y)\to (k(x-a)+a,k(y-b)+b)

According to the given information, the scale factor is \dfrac{1}{3} and the center of dilation is at (4,2).

(x,y)\to (\dfrac{1}{3}(x-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(y-2)+2)            ...(i)

Let us assume the vertices of red triangle are A(m,n), B(10,14) and C(-2,11).

Using (i), we get

C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-2-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(11-2)+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-6)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(9)+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(-2+4,3+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(2,5)

Therefore, the coordinates of Point C' are C'(2,5).

We assumed that point A is A(m,n).

Using (i), we get

A(m,n)\to A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)

From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is (8,4).

A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)=A'(8,4)

On comparing both sides, we get

\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4=8

\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)=8-4

(m-4)=3(4)

m=12+4

m=16

And,

\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2=4

\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)=4-2

(n-2)=3(2)

n=6+2

n=8

Therefore, the coordinates of point A are (16,8).

6k ÷ 7 = -3<br> Solve for k
fomenos

Answer:

k = -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6k ÷ 7 = -3

Multiply 7 to both sides

6k = -21

Divide both sides by 6

6k/6 = -21/6

k = -3.5

To check if the answer is correct or not, you can always plug in -3.5 for k in the equation.

6(-3.5) ÷ 7 = -3

-21 ÷ 7 = -3

-3 = -3

-3 equals -3 so it is correct that k = -3.5

The median and mean of these numbers:
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Mean : ≈ 12.7

Median: ≈ 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean you must add all the numbers and divide by the # of numbers in the set.

8+12+13+14+14+15 = 76

76/6 ≈ 12.7

To find the median you have to order the numbers from least to greatest, the middle number should be the median, but in this case two numbers are in the middle.

8, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15

So you have to add 14 and 13, which is 27.

Then divide by 2 which is ≈ 13.5
