For this case, what we must do is find the scale factor.
We have then that the scale factor is given by:

Where,
L1: side length of polygon ABCD
L2: side length of polygon PQRS
Note: both sides belong to the same side of each polygon
Substituting the values we have:

Rewriting we have:
Answer:
The scale factor of dilation is given by:
Solution
For this case we can do the following:
11y - 3x = 18
16y -3x = 33
We can multiply the first equation by -1 and we got:
-11y +3x =-18
16y -3x = 33
_______________
16y -11y = 33-18
5y = 15
y= 15/5 = 3
And then solving for x we got
x = -(18 -11*3)/ 3= -15/3 = 5
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying 5x + -7 = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 2x + 8 Reorder the terms: -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving -7 + 5x = 8 + 2x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2x' to each side of the equation. -7 + 5x + -2x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x -7 + 3x = 8 + 2x + -2x Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0 -7 + 3x = 8 + 0 -7 + 3x = 8 Add '7' to each side of the equation. -7 + 7 + 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0 0 + 3x = 8 + 7 3x = 8 + 7 Combine like terms: 8 + 7 = 15 3x = 15 Divide each side by '3'. x = 5 Simplifying x = 5
Answer:
AD~CB or ABD~BCD OR AB~CD
Using the given endpoint R (8,0)and the midpoint M (4,-5) , the other endpoint S is (0,-10)
Explanation :
Use the given endpoint R and the midpoint M of segment RS
R (8, 0 ) and M (4, -5 )
Let 'S' be (x2,y2)
Apply the midpoint formula

Endpoint R is (x1,y1) that is (8,0)
Substitute the values and make it equal to M(4,-5)

So other endpoint S is (0,-10)
