Triangle ABC is dilated with a center at the origin and a scale factor of 2. What are the coordinates of triangle A’B’C’?

Answers

The coordinates of triangle A'B'C' are A'(-4, 4), B'(2, 6) and C'(-2, 0).

Given that, triangle ABC is dilated with a center at the origin and a scale factor of 2.

What is a dilation?

Dilation is the process of resizing or transforming an object. It is a transformation that makes the objects smaller or larger with the help of the given scale factor. The new figure obtained after dilation is called the image and the original image is called the pre-image.

From the given graph, A(-2,2), B(1, 3) and C(-1, 0)

By using a scale factor of 2, we get

A(-2,2)→2(-2, 2)=A'(-4, 4)

B(1, 3)→2(1, 3)=B'(2, 6)

C(-1, 0)→2(-1, 0)=C'(-2, 0)

Therefore, the coordinates of triangle A'B'C' are A'(-4, 4), B'(2, 6) and C'(-2, 0).

suppose a+b=2a. which one of these expressions equals b-a?
A. 2b
B. 2a
C. 0
D. a/b
E. -2b

Answers

If a + b = 2a, then

a + b - 2a = 2a - 2a
b + a - 2a = 2a - 2a
b - a = 2a - 2a = 0

Therefore, b - a = 0.
ANSWER

C.
[tex]0[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given equation is

[tex]a + b = 2a[/tex]

We make b the subject to get,

[tex]b = 2a - a[/tex]

This simplifies to,

[tex]b = a[/tex]

Subtracting
[tex]a[/tex]
from both sides will give us,

[tex]b - a = a - a[/tex]


The right hand side will now simplify to zero,

Therefore

[tex]b - a = 0[/tex]

So his lawn can be divided into 4 shapes: 1 rectangle, 2 triangles, and an irregular shape. So you get the area of the rectangle which is 48*120=5,760.

For the part above the rectangle, you can see that the 2 triangles and the irregular shape make one large triangle so take the area of that. (I’m going to refer to this as the BIG triangle).
.5*40*120=2,400
The base of the triangle is equal to the base of the rectangle. The height of the triangle you get by subtracting the height of the WHOLE lawn by the height of the rectangle. (88-48=40).

Inside that large triangle made up of three shapes, you can see another triangle that’s made up of one triangle and the irregular shape. I’ll refer to this triangle as triangle 1.
Take the area of that triangle.
.5*25*75=937.5
The base of the triangle you get by adding the base of the smaller triangle and the irregular shape. (51+24=75)

Inside the triangle you just took the area of (triangle 1) is another triangle (which I’ll refer to as triangle 2). Take the area of triangle 2.
.5*51*17=433.5

Subtract the area of triangle 1 by the area of triangle 2 and that’ll give you the area of the irregular shape.
937.5-433.5=504

So now you add the areas of the BIG triangle and the rectangle.
5760+2,400=8160
Make sure you subtract the irregular shape since it isn’t part of the lawn’s area.
8160-504=7656

So the lawn is 7656 square feet. Multiply it by .005. That equals 38.28. That’s how much fertilizer he needs to use.

Multiply 1.25 to 38.28 to get the amount of money he needs to spend.

47.85 dollars

I might’ve made a few mistakes but I hope my reasoning was at least understandable

When I look at this figure, I see two polygons.
1) A large trapezoid with sides 48 ft and 88 ft, and non-parallel sides 136 ft and the top side that includes the dashed part.
2) A small trapezoid with parallel sides 17 ft and 25 ft, and non-parallel sides 24 ft and the dashed segment on top.

The area of the lawn is the area of the large trapezoid minus the area of the small trapezoid.

Area of trapezoid = (B + b)h/2
where B = large base, b = small base, and h = height.
(The height is perpendicular to both bases.)

Large trapezoid:
A = (88 ft + 48 ft)(120 ft)/2 = 8160 ft^2

Small trapezoid:
A = (25 ft + 17 ft)(24 ft)/2 = 504 ft^2

Area of lawn = area of large trapezoid - area of small  trapezoid

Area of lawn = 8160 ft^2 - 504 ft^2

Area of lawn = 7656 ft^2

Weight of fertilizer:
0.005 * 7656 = 38.28 lb

Cost of fertilizer:
1.25 * 38.28 = $47.85

Is 789 a terminating, Repeating, or Non-repeating Decimal?

Answers

789 is a repeating decimal

An aquarium with a square base has no top. There is a metal frame. Glass costs 8 dollars/m^2 and the frame costs 7 dollars/m. The volume is to be 20 m^3. Express the total cost C in terms of the height h in meters. (Hint: work out the cost of the glass and frame separately.)

Answers

Given that the volume of the aquarium is 20m^3.

Volume = Area of Base x height

Area of Base = Volume / height = 20/h

Given that the aquarium has a square base.

Area of square = l^2

Thus, the length of the base of the aquarium is [tex] \sqrt{area \ of \ base} = \sqrt{ \frac{20}{h} } [/tex]

The frame is to cover 8 sides with the length equal to the length of the base and 4 sides with the length of the height.

Thus, the total perimeter of the frame is given by [tex]8\sqrt{\frac{20}{h}}+4h= \sqrt{64\left(\frac{20}{h}\right)}+4h = \sqrt{\frac{1,280}{h}}+4h [/tex]

Area of the four side faces of the aquarium is 4 times the length of the base times the height = [tex]4\times\sqrt{ \frac{20}{h} }\times h=\sqrt{16\left(\frac{20}{h}\right)h^2}=\sqrt{320h}[/tex]

Total area to be covered by grass is the base and the four side faces and is given by [tex]\frac{20}{h}+\sqrt{320h}[/tex]

Cost of the entire metal frame = [tex]7\left(\sqrt{\frac{1,280}{h}}+4h\right)= \sqrt{49\left(\frac{1,280}{h}\right)}+7(4h) = \sqrt{\frac{62,720}{h}}+28h [/tex]

Cost of the entire grass = [tex]8\left(\frac{20}{h}+\sqrt{320h}\right)=\frac{160}{h}+\sqrt{64(320h)}=\frac{160}{h}+\sqrt{20,480h[/tex]

Therefore, total cost in terms of the height, h, is given by

[tex]C=\sqrt{\frac{62,720}{h}}+28h+\frac{160}{h}+\sqrt{20,480h[/tex]

triangle ABC is an obtuse isosceles triangle. angle a measures 20°. what is the number of degrees in the measure of the largest interior angle of tiangle ABC

Answers

The largest angle must be the single angle, so there are two angles that are 20 degrees. 20 + 20 is 40, and because the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, you must subtract 180 - 40, and you get 140 degrees as the largest angle. Hope this helps!
