Answer:

To make the figures smaller, scale factor must be divided.  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Firstly, consider a pentagon ABCDE, if we take the scale factor 1\3, the dilations will be smaller.

As distance between A and B = 6

after dilation, distance between A' and B' = 2

Similarly continuing for each side, we get the figure smaller A'B'C'D'E' which is smaller than the original figure.

2) Secondly, consider a hexagon ABCDEF, if we take scale factor 1\2, the dilated figure will be smaller.

A s distance between A and B = 4

After dilations, distance between A' and B' = 2

Similarly continuing for each side, we get the figure A'B'C'D'E'F' which is smaller than the original figure.

Marcello is constructing the perpendicular bisector of AB¯¯¯¯¯. He has already constructed arcs as shown.
Ratling [72]

Answer: "Use the straightedge to draw a line through points X and Y." is the right answer.


Step-by-step explanation:

To perpendicular bisector of line segment AB. There are following steps:

1) Draw arcs from points A and B on the both sides of AB.

2) Name the intersection points as X and Y.

3) Use the straightedge to draw a line through points X and Y.

4) Name the point as O

hence we have construct perpendicular bisector XY of AB which bisects at O.

Heron wants to buy a video game. The price is regularly priced at 55 dollars. The store has a discount of 20% off and a sales ta
nadezda [96]

The amount paid by Heron for the video game  is $46.64.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the marked price of the video game  = $55

The discount percentage on the video game  = 20%

Calculating 20% of the $55, we get:

\frac{20}{100}  \times 55  = 11

So, the discount offered on the video game  = $11

Selling Price  = Marked Price  - Discount

                        =$55 - $11 = $44

Now,  the tax percentage on the video game  = 6%

Calculating 6% of the $44, we get:

\frac{6}{100}  \times 44  =2.64

So, the tax  on the video game  = $2.64

New Selling Price  = Selling Price  +  Tax

                        =$44 + $2.64  = $46.64

So, the amount paid by Heron for the video game  is $46.64.

Demand for an electric fan is related to its selling price p (in dollars) by the equation n = 1960 − 70 p where n is the number
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

  $14

Step-by-step explanation:

The revenue from sales of fans is the product of the number of fans sold and the price at which they are sold:

  R(p) = n·p = (1960-70p)p

  R(p) = 70(28 -p)p

This equation describes a parabola that opens downward and has zeros at p=0 and p=28. The axis of symmetry is halfway between those zeros, at p=14. It goes through the vertex or point of maximum revenue.

The price for maximum revenue is p = 14 dollars.

The points (–5, 6) and (5, 6) are vertices of a hexagon. The line segment joining the two points forms one of the sides of the h
xxTIMURxx [149]

The information about the points being vertices that make up a line to represent the side of a hexagon is irrelevant, as we are only looking for the distance of a line based on their x and y coordinates.

Look at the point's x and y coordinates:

First point:

x = -5, y = 6

Second point:

x = 5, y = 6

You'll notice that the y-coordinate for both points is the same (6 = 6). This means that the segment created by the points will be horizontal, since there is only movement on the x-axis if you trace the segment from point to point.

To find the distance between the two points, we'll only need to subtract the first point's x-coordinate from the second:

5 - (-5) = 5 + 5 = 10

The answer will be the following statement:

Since the y-coordinates are the same, the segment is horizontal, and the distance between the points is 10 units.
