Answer:
- A. segment A double prime B double prime = segment AB over 2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Triangle ABC with coordinates of:</u>
- A = (-3, 3), B = (1, -3), C = (-3, -3)
<u>Translation (x + 2, y + 0), coordinates will be:</u>
- A' = (-1, 3), B = ( 3, -3), C = (-1, -3)
<u>Dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 from the origin, coordinates will be:</u>
- A'' = (-0.5, 1.5), B'' = (1.5, -1.5), C= (-0.5, -1.5)
<u>Let's find the length of AB and A''B'' using distance formula</u>
- d = √(x2-x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
- AB = √(1-(-3))² + (-3 -3)² = √4²+6² = √16+36 = √52 = 2√13
- A''B'' = √(1.5 - (-0.5)) + (-1.5 - 1.5)² = √2²+3² = √13
<u>We see that </u>
<u>Now the answer options:</u>
A. segment A double prime B double prime = segment AB over 2
B. segment AB = segment A double prime B double prime over 2
- Incorrect. Should be AB = A''B''*2
C. segment AB over segment A double prime B double prime = one half
- Incorrect. Should be AB/A''B'' = 2
D. segment A double prime B double prime over segment AB = 2
- Incorrect. Should be A''B''/AB = 1/2
You would obviously only be able to create two sandwiches with the given information.
Answer:
4 boys, 3 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
brothers of John ⇒ x
sisters of John ⇒ y
John has as many brothers as sisters:
- x = y
brothers of Emily ⇒ x + 1 (Emily have the same amount of brother as John, plus one (John))
sisters of Emily ⇒ y -1 (Emily have the same amount of sister as John, minus one (herself))
Emily has twice as many brothers as sisters:
- 2 (y-1) = x+ 1
Now we have a system of 2 equations and 2 variables
x=y (I)
2y - 2 = x + 1 (II)
____________
Replace x in equation II
2y - 2 = y + 1
2y - y = 2 + 1
y = 3
____________
Replace y in equation I
x = y = 3
That mean that John have 3 brothers plus himself, there is 4 boys in the family and John have 3 sister, so there is 3 girls in the family
<span>So we have a problem with two unknows and one equation. We have to express one over the other like this: 7a - 2b = 5a + b. First we separate one kind on the left side and the other kind on the right side: 7a - 5a = b + 2b. Then: 2a = 3b. Now we divide both sides by 2 and get: a= 3b/2.</span>
