Answer:
Steps 3 and 4 are incorrect because
(a) An incorrect value for slope was obtained in step 3.
(b) The incorrect value for the slope was used in step 4.
Explanation:
Let us evaluate Talia's steps.
Step 1: Select (2, 5) as a point on the line.
CORRECT
Step 2: Select another point (1, 3) on the line.
CORRECT
Step 3: Count units to the right and count units up, to determine the slope.
Units right = 2 - 1 = 1
Units up = 5 - 3 = 2
Slope = (Units up)/(Units right) = 2/1 = 2
INCORRECT because Talia did not obtain a slope of 2.
Step 4: Substitute obtained values in the point-slope form.
(y - y1) = m(x - x1). If we select the point (1, 3), then
y - 2 = 2(x - 1).
Talia's equation is INCORRECT because she used an incorrect value
for the slope.
Answer: The required scale factor of the dilation is 4.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the parallelogram FGHJ was dilated and translated to form similar parallelogram F'G'H'J'.
We are to find the scale factor of the dilation.
From the graph, we note that
JH = 2 units and J'H' = 8 units.
We know that
Therefore, the scale factor of the given dilation is
Thus, the required scale factor of the dilation is 4.
If you had 4 boxes of cereal and each costs $2.40, the total cost would be $9.60 (2.40×4).
The total cost of the bananas and the cereal cost $10.11. To find how much the 3/4 of bananas cost, simply subtract $9.60 away from $10.11 (10.11-9.6), which gives you $0.51.
The question asks for 1 pound of bananas but you only have the cost of 3/4. So, divide your cost by 3 to give you the cost of 1/4. (0.51÷3), which gives you $0.17.
The last step is to multiply this answer by 4 because 4/4 will result in a whole, or in this case, one pound (0.17×4) and thus gives you the cost $0.68 for one pound of bananas.
(please correct me if I'm wrong, hope this helped c: )
Then your amount was reduced to $15 less
