Answer:x=(y-25)/15
Step-by-step explanation:
You would do x+ (x+1)=137
2x+1=137
Subtract 1 from each side
2x=136
x=68.
Add 1 to 68, since they are consecutive integers.
The answer is 68 and 69
Multiple 5x70 to get 350. Which makes the equation 350=5x and then you have to divide both sides by 5 to get x by itself. so 5x/5 and 350/5 makes x=70
The dilation is a reduction because n > 1
Hope this helps :)
I would say smaller than because you would be dilating the image by a number less than 1, which is making the image smaller.
