44=p+p+6
1. 44=2p+6 combine like terms
2.38=2p subtract 6 from both sides
3. 19=p
4. the longer piece is 19+6=25 so 25inches
the other piece is 19 inches

Which describes how triangle FGH could be transformed to triangle F prime G prime H prime in two steps? On a coordinate plane, t
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

  • <u><em>A dilation by a scale factor of 4 and then a reflection across the x-axis </em></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Vertices of triangle FGH:</u>

  • F: (-2,1)
  • G: (-3,3)
  • H: (0,1)

<u>2. Vertices of triangle F'G'H':</u>

  • F': (-8,-4)
  • G': (-12,-12)
  • H': (0, -4)

<u>3. Solution:</u>

Look at the coordinates of the point H and H': to transform (0,1) to (0,-4) you can muliply each coordinate by 4 and then change the y-coordinate from 4 to -4. That is<em> a dilation by a scale factor of 4 and a reflection across the x-axis.</em> This is the proof:

  • Rule for a dilation by a scale factor of 4: (x,y) → 4(x,y)

       (0,1) → 4(0,1) = (0,4)

  • Rule for a reflection across the x-axis:{ (x,y) → (x, -y)

        (0,4) → (0,-4)

Verfiy the transformations of the other vertices with the same rule:

  • Dilation by a scale factor of 4: multiply each coordinate by 4

       4(-2,1) → (-8,4)

       4(-3,3) → (-12,12)

  • Relfection across the x-axis: keep the x-coordinate and negate the y-coordinate

        (-8,4) → (-8,-4) ⇒ F'

        (-12,12) → (-12,-12) ⇒ G'

Therefore, the three points follow the rules for <em>a dilation by a scale factor of 4 and then a reflection across the x-axis.</em>
