Find the scale factor of the dilation. Then tell whether it is enlargement or reduction.​

Mathematics
1 answer:
mariarad [96]3 years ago

Answer:

  a) 1/2; reduction

  b) 5/4; enlargement

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case, the scale factor is CP'/CP. When it is more than 1, the dilation is an enlargement.

Even before you run the numbers, you can tell if it is an enlargement or not. If the dilated figure is larger, P is closer to C than is P'. If P' is closer to C, then it is a reduction.

a) CP'/CP = (4-2)/4 = 2/4 = 1/2 . . . . a reduction

__

b) CP'/CP = 25/20 = 5/4 . . . . an enlargement

Determine the sum of the first 9 terms in the geometric series where r= -0.25 and a1= 256.
Damm [24]

\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence} \\\\ S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad  \begin{cases} n=n^{th}\ term\\ a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ r=\textit{common ratio}\\ ----------\\ r=-0.25\\ a_1=256\\ n=9 \end{cases}

\bf S_9=256\left(\cfrac{1-(-0.25)^9}{1-(-0.25)}  \right)\implies S_9=256\left( \cfrac{1+0.25^9}{1+0.25} \right) \\\\\\ S_9=256\left(  \cfrac{52429}{65536}\right)\implies S_9=\cfrac{52429}{256}\implies S_9=204.80078125

Calculate the annual return percentage
const2013 [10]
The annual returns will be calculated as follows:
a] Here we use the formula:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
A=future amount
p=principle
r=returns
n=time
We are given:
A=500, p=400, t=1
Plugging the values in the formula we obtain:
500=400(1+r)^1
simplifying and solving for r:
1.25=1+r
thus
r=1.25-1
r=0.25~25%

b] Using the formula above:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
A=2500+100=2600, p=2000, n=1 year
plugging the values in the equation we obtain:
2600=2000(1+r)^1
simplifying and solving for r we obtain:
2600/2000=1+r
1.3=1+r
hence
r=1.3-1
r=0.3~30%

<em>Step 1: Identify the similar triangles</em>

Triangle DQC and triangle DBR are similar

<em>Step 2: Identify the parallel lines</em>

QC is parallel to BR

<em>Step 3: Find x</em>

DQ/QB = DC/CR

40/24 = x/15

x = 25
