A rectangle has vertices E(-4, 8), F(2, 8), G(2, -2) and H(-4, -2). The rectangle is dilated with the origin as the center of dilation so that G' is located at (5, -5). Which algebraic representation represents this dilation?

The dilation on any point of the rectangle is .

Step-by-step explanation:

From Linear Algebra, we define the dilation of a point by means of the following definition:

(1)

Where:

- Coordinates of the point G, dimensionless.

- Center of dilation, dimensionless.

- Scale factor, dimensionless.

- Coordinates of the point G', dimensionless.

If we know that , and , then scale factor is:

The dilation on any point of the rectangle is:

(2)

The dilation on any point of the rectangle is .

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

363 square inches

step-by-step explanation:

surface area of a pyramid is b + 1/2ph

b is the area of the base: 11 x 11 = 121

p is the perimeter of the base: 11 + 11 + 11 + 11 = 44

h is the height of the pyramid: 11

121 + 1/2(44)(11)

121 + 242
