What is the scale factor of the dialation adding pic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Choose: A) -1/3 B) 1/3 C) -3 D) 3

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

compare lengths of corresponding sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Blue is 6 Red is 2

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

right - now you know the scale factor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or 3

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

6 / 2 = 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok tnx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

E(−2, 3) F(−1, 2) G(−3, 1)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

yw - its quite simple really - all lengths in larger triangles are 3 times those of small one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok tis and tht the same thing idk how

OpenStudy (anonymous):

E(−2, 3) F(−1, 2) G(−3, 1)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

E, F and G are the original coordinates of figure and E' etc are coordinates of the image

OpenStudy (anonymous):

IDK how thts the prob

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

do you have to find the scale factor for this ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A) -1/4 B) 1/4 C) -4 D) 4

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

ok take E transformation is -2 ---> -1/2 3 ----> 3/4 -2 * 1/4 = -1/2 ) 3 * 1/4 = 3/4 ) = E' test F in similar way

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be 4 then correct?

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

no - what did i multiply by ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/4

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

right

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

that works for F and G too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same thing A) -3/2 B) 3/2 C) 2/3 D) -2/3

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

which option is 1/4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

thats it for second question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ... do u c my 3rd 1?

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

as for 3rd - do it in same way i did the first - compare corresponding lengths eg WX' / WX

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Blue 6 Red 4

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

right so 6/4 - simplify that and u got it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

M (−3, −3) N(−6, 0) P(0, 0) Q(−3, 6) AND M' (−1, −1) N'(−2, 0) P'(0, 0) Q'(−1, 2)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

how do you get 2 from 6? 6 * 1 = 2 - x what would x be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2*3=6

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

no its 6 * 1/3 = 2
