what about this one for dilation i thought you just doubled it A triangle has side lengths of 12, 15 and 9. A dilation could result in a triangle with which of the following side lengths? Select one: a. 4, 7 and 1 b. 2, 3 and 3 c. 24, 30 and 20 Incorrect d. 4, 5 and 3

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

not quite. for a dilation, you can multiply each side or divide each side by the same number. it doesn't necessarily have to be 2 hint: divide each of the sides by 3

Can you help me with this one A triangle with vertices at (1, 2), (–1, –6) and (7, –2) is translated five units to the left and 7 units upward. The coordinates of the translated triangle are: Select one: a. (6, 9), (4, 1) and (12, 5) b. (–4, –5), (–6, –13) and (2, –9) c. (6, –5), (4, –13) and (12, –9) d. (–4, 9), (–6, 1) and (2, 5) Incorrect i moved them and it got D but it was wrong ?: / @Vocaloid

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

start with the x-coordinates subtract 5 from each x-coordinate first

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

then add 7 to each y-coordinate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay hold on

Vocaloid (vocaloid):

actually your answer seems right to me, that's odd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-4,-3) , (-6,-11) , (2,-7) those are all just -5
