Answer:

y = -x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the given equation for y, we have ...

y = x +4

The slope of this line is the coefficient of x: 1. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal of this: -1/1 = -1. The y-intercept of the perpendicular line can be found from ...

b = y -mx = 8 -(-1)(-3) = 5

The perpendicular line has equation ...

y = -x +5

Dmitrij [34]

The answer is the second option, option B, which is: B. <span>W'(2,8), X'(2,2), Y'(8,2)
</span> The explanation is shown below:
You have the Triangle WXY has coordinates W(1,4), X(1,1), and Y(4,1) and the Triangle of the option B has coordinates W'(2,8), X'(2,2), Y'(8,2). As you can notice, the coordinates of the new triangle are the result of multiply the coordinates of the original triangle by a scale of factor of 2. Therefore, in other words, the Triangle WXY was dilated with a scale of factor of 2.
