Square RSTU dilates by a factor of 1/2 with respect to the origin. If R'S' is 2 units, what is RS ? 0.5 units 2 units 1 unit 4 units 6 units

@Rachella

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its A. or C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[R'S'= RS \div2\]\[2 = RS \div2\]\[4 = RS\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So your answer will be 4 units.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright gorgeous umm i dont understand that haha lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thats better lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you Rachella

It says that R'S" is 2 units so in order to get RS, you'll just have to multiply by two in order to get your answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My pleasure! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh i never knew that your really sweet and smart (: imma give you bunches of medals

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep! All your doing is doubling your R'S" and we know that R'S" is two units so just double the two units in order to find what RS is. So to solve this problem it'd be: \[R'S" = 2 ~Units \times 2 ~Units = 4~ Units \]

its 4.
