Answer:
False, the dilation factor is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice how each measure of the segments for the red quadrilateral is 2x the amount of the segments for the blue triangle? That right there is the dilation factor.
Distribute
-12 -6a = -48
Add 12 to isolate -6a
-6a = -36
Divide by -6 on both sides to isolate a
a = 6
In order to answer this question let's suppose,
Joe is x miles from the beginning and y miles from the end. These assumptions are necessary to answer further:
Now,
x=2y
x+y=30
plugging in x=2y in the above equation
2y+y=30
3y=30
y=10
Hence, according to our calculations, Joe has to hike 10 miles further
Answer:
C) 40
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid
So <B = <C
x+10 = 2x - 30
-x = -40
x = 40
