Answer:

  • x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The line with points (1,2) and (-1,-8). Work out its equation.</u>

  • y = mx + b

<u>The slope is:</u>

  • m = (-8 - 2)/(-1 - 1) = -10/-2 = 5

<u>To find the y intercept, substitute x and y-xoordinates of point (1,2):</u>

  • 2 = 5(1) + b
  • b = 2 - 5
  • b = -3

<u>The line is:</u>

  • y = 5x - 3

<u>Point (x, 17), substitute y-coordinate and solve for x</u>

  • 17 = 5x - 3
  • 5x = 17 + 3
  • 5x = 20
  • x = 20/5
  • x = 4

What would be the coordinates of triangle A'B'C' if triangle ABC was dilated by a factor of
notsponge [240]

Answer:

A(0,0)\rightarrow A'(0,0) \\ B(2,0)\rightarrow B'(\frac{2}{3},0) \\ C(0,2)\rightarrow C'(0,\frac{2}{3})

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following:

The verticies of a triangle on the coordinate plane are

A(0, 0), B(2, 0) and C(0, 2).

What would be the coordinates of triangle A'B'C' if triangle ABC was dilated by a factor of 1/3 ?

=============================================

Given: the vertices of a triangle ABC are A(0, 0), B(2, 0) and C(0, 2).

IF the triangle is dilated by a factor of k about the origin, then

(x,y) → (kx , ky)

that triangle ABC was dilated by a factor of 1/3 to create the triangle A'B'C'.

It is given that triangle ABC was dilated by a factor of 1/3 to create the triangle A'B'C'.

If a figure dilated by a factor of 1/3 about the origin

So, (x,y)\rightarrow (\frac{1}{3}x,\frac{1}{3}y)

<u>So, The coordinates of the triangle A'B'C' are:</u>

A(0,0)\rightarrow A'(0,0) \\ B(2,0)\rightarrow B'(\frac{2}{3},0) \\ C(0,2)\rightarrow C'(0,\frac{2}{3})

Ell it could be any of these to be perfectly honest but none of these are the answer I believe because none of them give you a 3/4 proportion. So it could be none of the above if thats an answer.
