Answer:
Attached diagram A'B'C'D'
Step-by-step explanation:
Given is a quadrilateral ABCD. It says to draw a dilated version with a scale factor 2/3.
We see that scale factor is less than 1 which means it shrinks the image to a smaller one.
To draw a scaled copy, we need to find the lengths of its sides.
To do so, we can draw the diagonals AC & BD, and they intersect at origin O(0,0) such that OA= -2, OB= 2, OC= 4, OD= -4.
Applying a scale factor of 2/3, we get OA' = -4/3, OB' = 4/3, OC' = 8/3, OD' = -8/3.
So we have attached a scaled copy A'B'C'D' of quadrilateral ABCD with a scale factor 2/3.
Answer:
I think it is B, AB or CD and AB || CD
Step-by-step explanation:
The rule for reflecting over the X axis is to negate the value of the y-coordinate of each point, but leave the x-value the same. For example, when point P with coordinates (5,4) is reflecting across the X axis and mapped onto point P', the coordinates of P' are (5,-4).
Answer:
c. 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Eliminate parentheses using the distributive property.
3(b+4) -2(2b+3) = -4 . . . . given
3b +12 -4b -6 = -4 . . . . . parentheses eliminated
-b +6 = -4 . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
-b = -10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 6
b = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by -1
_____
The rules of equality require that any operation you perform on one side of the equal sign must also be done on the other side. So when we say "subtract 6", we assume you know that means "subtract 6 from both sides of the equation", for example.
