Answer:

x = -84

y = -21

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - y = 17

4y = x

Use the first equation to solve for y

4 - y = 17

y = 4 - 17

y = -21

In the second equation, get y on its own.

4y = x

y = x/4

Substitute the new second equation into the new first equation

-21 = x/4

-21 * 4 = x

x = -84

A triangle has coordinates A (1, 5), B (-2, 1) and C (0, -4). What are the new coordinates if the triangle is dilated with a sca

Brilliant_brown [7]

IF you are dilating about the origin, which you didn't exactly state, the new coordinates are A' (1/5, 1), B' (2/5, 1/5), C' (0, 4/5). Dilation is all about distance, so you have to move the new coordinates to whatever the scale factor is times the x and y distance. For example, A is at (1, 5), so 1/5 of 1 is 1/5, and 1/5 of 5 is 1, hence your new coordinate for A. It is a fifth of the distance from the origin as its preimage is.
