Answer:

(2x + 16)/3x = 2/1

2x + 16 = 6x

4x = 16

x = 4

Aaliyah's pens = 2x = 2 × 4 = 8

the number of Maria's pen = 3x = 3 × 4 = 12 -----Part A

New ratio = (8 + 16)/6

24/6 = 4/1 = 4 : 1 --------- Part B Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle MNP is dilated according to the rule DO,1.5 (x,y)Right arrow(1.5x, 1.5y) to create the image triangle M'N'P, which is n
Vikki [24]

Given:

The vertex of a triangle MNP are M(-4, 6), N(2, 6), and P(-1, 1).

The rule of dilation is:

(x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)

The image of triangle MNP after dilation is M'N'P'.

To find:

The coordinates of the endpoints of segment M'N'.

Solution:

The end points of MN are M(-4, 6) and N(2, 6).

The rule of dilation is:

(x,y)\to (1.5x,1.5y)

Using this rule, we get

M(-4,6)\to M'(1.5(-4),1.5(6))

M(-4,6)\to M'(-6,9)

And,

N(2,6)\to N'(1.5(2),1.5(6))

N(2,6)\to N'(3,9)

The endpoints of M'N' are M'(-6, 9) and N'(3, 9).

Therefore, the correct option is B.

x = 0.2

0.2 means 20%.

The discount is 20% off.
