If triangle XYZ is reflected across the line y = 1 to create triangle X'Y'Z', what is the ordered pair of X'? 
Vlad1618 [11]

Consider triangle XYZ with vertices at points X(1,-3), Y(3,0) and Z(-1,-1). If triangle XYZ is reflected across the line y = 1, then the rule of reflection is

(x,y)→(x,-y+2).

The image X' of point X will have coordinates according to the given rule:

X(1,-3)→X'(1, -(-3)+2)=X'(1,5).

Answer: correct choice is D.

Find the dimensions of a deck which will have railings on only three sides. There is 28 m of railing available and the deck must
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The largest possible area of the deck is 87.11 m² with dimensions;

Width = 9.33 m

Breadth = 9.33 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a given dimension increases as the dimension covers more equidistant dimension from the center, which gives the quadrilateral with largest dimension being that of a square

Given that the railings will be placed on three sides only and the third side will cornered or left open, such that the given length of railing can be shared into three rather than four to increase the area

The length of the given railing = 28 m

The sides of the formed square area by sharing the railing into three while the fourth side is left open are then equal to 28/3 each

The area of a square of side s = s²

The largest possible area of the deck = (28/3)² = 784/9 = 87.11 m² with dimensions;

Width = 28/3 m = 9.33 m

Breadth = 28/3 m = 9.33 m.
