Tasya [4]

Answer:

x = 17 and y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a parallelogram

So AB = CD and AD = BC

3x - 9 = 42

3x = 51

x = 17

and

4y - 3 = 37

4y = 40

y = 10

Answer

x = 17 and y = 10

A rectangle has vertices E(-4, 8), F(2, 8), G(2, -2) and H(-4, -2). The rectangle is dilated with the origin as the center of di

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The dilation on any point of the rectangle is $P'(x,y) = \frac{5}{2}\cdot P(x,y)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From Linear Algebra, we define the dilation of a point by means of the following definition:

$G'(x,y) = O(x,y) +k\cdot [G(x,y)-O(x,y)]$ (1)

Where:

$G(x,y)$ - Coordinates of the point G, dimensionless.

$O(x,y)$ - Center of dilation, dimensionless.

$k$ - Scale factor, dimensionless.

$G'(x,y)$ - Coordinates of the point G', dimensionless.

If we know that $O(x,y) = (0,0)$ , $G(x,y) =(2,-2)$ and $G'(x,y) =(5,-5)$ , then scale factor is:

$(5,-5) = (0,0) +k\cdot [(2,-2)-(0,0)]$

$(5,-5) = (2\cdot k, -2\cdot k)$

$k = \frac{5}{2}$

The dilation on any point of the rectangle is:

$P'(x,y) = (0,0) + \frac{5}{2}\cdot [P(x,y)-(0,0)]$

$P'(x,y) = \frac{5}{2}\cdot P(x,y)$ (2)

The dilation on any point of the rectangle is $P'(x,y) = \frac{5}{2}\cdot P(x,y)$ .

Which is an x-intercept of the continuous function in the

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

(-1, 0), (2, 0), (3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept of a line is defined by a point where y = 0.

So the point in the form of (x, 0) will be the x-intercept of the given continuous function.

From the table attached,

For x = -1, f(-1) = 0

For x = 2, f(2) = 0

For x = 3, f(3) = 0

Points (-1, 0), (2, 0) and (3, 0) are the x-intercepts of the continuous function f(x).
