Remark
The easiest way to do this is just to find the x and y intercepts when the center of dilation is 0,0 and the scale factor is 1/2
Solution
On the x axis, the value of x is 8 before the dilation takes place. When you dilate by 1/2 x becomes 8*1/2 = 4
On the y axis, the value of y is -6 before the dilation takes place. When you dilate by 1/2, y becomes -6*1/2 = -3
Now join the points (4,0) and (0,-3) That is your new triangle with a dilation of 1/2.
Hey!
We could rewrite the problem as:

Since we have a negative number, we could rewrite the fraction like this.

Let's simplify it...

Our answer would be:

<span>The correct
answer is 3.24 grams per cubic centimetre. As a matter of fact, the
lunar soil’s mean density may range from 2.90 to 3.24 g cm-3 which highly
depends on the type of ingredients present in its resource materials.</span>
Answer:
Cristal is correct because 7 x 600 is less than 6 x 7,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Because they are just switching the numbers 7 and 6 and 7 x 6 = 6 x 7, you have to look at the number of zeros. As you can see, 7,000 has 1 more zero than 600, so Cristal is correct. Just like I said 7 x 6 and 6 x 7 is interchangeable, so is 7 x 600 and 6 x 700, they both equal 4,200. However, 6 x 7,000 is 42,000.
Hope this helps! If you have any additional questions please don't hesitate to ask me or your teacher to be sure you master the subject. Stay safe and please mark brainliest! :)
