I'll help, I just did this kind of stuff.

directrix · Answer

@Edge This person says for your problem: >>the answer is C 100% sure... I got the square root of 117 but did not realize the 1:3 ratio. This explanation is plausible: http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/4fa01b77e4b029e9dc311d4f

anonymous · Answer

So the answer s C

anonymous · Answer

just makin sure

directrix · Answer

If I were doing this homework, that is what I could submit as my answer. I cannot say that I am 100% sure that it is correct. I would go with 98% sure. @LadyKatsaTheGraceling who posted "I'll help, I just did this kind of stuff." Help us out here. Do you think C is the correct answer for the reasons given in the posted thread http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/4fa01b77e4b029e9dc311d4f

anonymous · Answer

lets get @ganeshie8

anonymous · Answer

I get C by comparing the ratio of the distance between the original points to the distance of the given 2 new points. 6, -5 is the more logical answer

anonymous · Answer

C seems pretty reasonable to me

anonymous · Answer

so @Directrix should I choose C

directrix · Answer

If I had to choose now at this very moment, I would choose C. Yes.

anonymous · Answer

ok

anonymous · Answer

I hope its correct

directrix · Answer

@Edge I will be disappointed if C is not correct, too.

I had hoped that our helpers who posted here would have been more analytical in explaining why they chose the answers they did.

directrix · Answer

I'll look for @@campbell_st  later today to ask about this.

anonymous · Answer
