Transformation that changes the size of a shape is referred to as dilation.

  • The scale factor that moves the large triangle to the small one is 1/5
  • The center of dilation is: (-1,1)

<u>The center of dilation</u>

From the diagram (see attachment), the triangles share a common vertex at (-1,1)

This means that, the center of dilation is (-1,1)

<u>The scale factor of dilation</u>

To do this, we divide the side length of the small triangle with the corresponding side of the large triangle.

From the attached image:

\mathbf{Base\ of\ small\ triangle = 1}

\mathbf{Base\ of\ large\ triangle = 5}

So, the scale factor (k) from large to small is:

\mathbf{k = \frac{Base\ of\ small\ triangle}{Base\ of\ large\ triangle} }

\mathbf{k = \frac{1}{5} }

Heidi has 6 pounds of tomatoes from her garden. She used 3/4 of all the tomatoes to make sauce and gave 2/3 of the rest of the t
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor

Step-by-step explanation:

How much did you use to make sauce

6 * 3/4 = 18/4 =9/2 = 4.5  lbs

That leaves 6-4.5 = 1.5 lbs

She give 2/3 of this to her neighbor

1.5 * 2/3

Changing the decimal to a fraction

3/2 * 2/3 = 1

She gives 1  pound to her neighbor, but we want it in ounces

16 ounces equals 1 pound

She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor

This graph shows the rate of a scuba diver's ascent to the surface. What does the y-intercept of the graph represent?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

D. The scuba diver was 35 meters below the surface of water at the start of the ascent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of the graph representing the scuba's driver ascent to the surface is -35.

This represents the starting level below the surface of the water.

✅-35, means that the driver was 35 meters below the surface of water at the start of the scuba's ascent to the surface.

Jan spent the day at the mall. She came home with $9.50. She spent $5.25 on earrings and 3 times that amount on a shirt. How muc
ki77a [65]

Answer:

She took $30.50 to the mall originally

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the problem step by step

∵ She spent $5.25 on earrings

∵ The price of the shirt is 3 times the price of the earrings

∴ The price of the shirt = 3 × 5.25 = 15.75

∴ She spent $15.75 on the shirt

Find her total spending in the mall by adding the prices of earrings and the shirt

∴ She spent = 5.25 + 15.75 = 21

∴ She spent $21 on the mall

∵ She came home with $9.50

∵ She spent $21 on the mall

- Add them to find her original amount of money

∴ She took = 21 + 9.50 = 30.50

∴ She took $30.50 to the mall originally
