Step-by-step explanation & answer:
When a dilation in the coordinate plane has the origin as the center of dilation, we can find points on the dilated image by multiplying the x and y coordinates of the original figure by the scale factor.
For example, if the scale factor is "k", the algebraic representation of the dilation is
(x, y) → (kx, ky)
For enlargements, k > 1 and for reductions, k < 1.

The answer is -11/2, 9/2
Explanation
You have to rewrite the absolute value equation as two separate equations.
2x+1=10
2x+1=-10
Then you solve for X in each equation.
2x+1=10 would give you 9/2
2x+1=-10 would give you -11/2
So your final solutions would be x1= -11/2 x2= 9/2
This is false because 20-8 is 12 and 12 times 5 isnt 17
USING PYTHAGORAS THEORAM,
x²+3²= 5²
x²+9= 25
x²= 25-9 = 16
x= √16
x= 4
