Answer: If the scale factor is greater than 1 then the image is an enlargement .

If the scale factor is smaller than 1 then the image is an reduction.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation a transformation that changes the size of the figure in certain ways by using scale factor .

It stretches or shrinks the actual figure. It produces similar figures.

  • If the scale factor is greater than 1 then the image is an <em>enlargement</em> .
  • If the scale factor is smaller than 1 then the image is an<em> reduction</em>.
  • If the scale factor is equals to 1 then the image is <em>congruent</em>.

If your scale factor has absolute value greater than 1, the dilation is an enlargement. 
<span>If your scale factor has abs value less than 1, the dilation is a reduction. </span>
<span>If the scale factor is equal to 1, the image is congruent to the preimage. </span>

the temperature of the water in Emily's fish tank was 78 degrees F on Sunday the water temperature was changed by -3 on Monday a
SpyIntel [72]

To solve this problem, let us analyze this step by step. The temperature for each day is as follows:

 

Water temperature on Sunday = 78 degrees F

Water temperature on Monday = changed by -3 degrees F

Water temperature on Tuesday = changed by 3 degrees F

 

We can see that the total change of water temperature from Sunday to Tuesday is:

-3 + 3 = 0

Therefore there is zero overall change. There the integer which represents the temperature change is “0”.

 

Since the overall change in water temperature is zero, hence the temperature on Sunday and on Tuesday is similar.

Water temperature on Tuesday = 78 degrees F

alex41 [277]
You would need 19.5 cups of oats and 7.8 cups of sugar because 195 divided by 25 is 7.8 so then you just multiply the both of them by that
