Answer:

x= -3

y= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

10y - 3x = -41

+

-5y + 3x = 16

10y + (-5y) = 5y

-3x + 3x = 0

-41 + 16 = -25

5y + 0 = -25

y = -25/5

y= -5

10y -3× = -41

(10×-5) - 3x = -41

- 3x = - 41 + 50

- 3x = 9

x = -3

Answer:

x - intercept = 6

y - intercept = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x - intercept, substitute y = 0 in the equation and solve for x.

x = 6

Similarly, To find y - intercept, substitute x = 0 in the equation and solve for y.

y = 3

1) After a dilation, (-60, 15) is the image of (-12, 3). What are the coordinates of the image of (-2,-7) after the same dilatio
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

a) k = 5; (-10, -35)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Co-ordinates:

Pre-Image = (-12,3)

After dilation

Image = (-60,15)

The dilation about the origin can be given as :

Pre-Image(x,y)\rightarrow Image(kx,ky)

where k represents the scalar factor.

We can find value of k for the given co-ordinates by finding the ratio of x or y co-ordinates of the image and pre-image.

k=\frac{Image}{Pre-Image}

For the given co-ordinates.

Pre-Image = (-12,3)

Image = (-60,15)

The value of k=\frac{-60}{-12}=5

or k=\frac{15}{3}=5

As we get k=5 for both ratios i.e of x and  y co-ordinates, so we can say the image has been dilated by a factor of 5 about the origin.

To find the image of (-2,-7), after same dilation, we will multiply the co-ordinates with the scalar factor.

Pre-Image(-2,-7)\rightarrow Image((-2\times5),(-7\times 5))

Pre-Image(-2,-7)\rightarrow Image(-10,-35) (Answer)
