ΔRST is dilated about the origin, O, to create ΔR'S'T'. Point R is located at (3, 9), and point R' is located at (1.2, 3.6). Which scale factor was used to perform the dilation?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Answer
scale factor=0.4

Explanation
The scale factor for any transformation is the ration of the image distance to the object distance.
That is the ratio of distance from the origin to the image to the distance from the origin to the object.
In the case above, OR’is the image distance and OR is the object distance.
OR’ = √(〖1.2〗^2+〖3.6〗^2 )=√14.4=3.794733192
OR = √(3^2+9^2 )=√90=9.486832981

The scale factor = 3.794733192/9.486832981
=0.4

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer: 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the a scale factor for dilation about the origin, O is the ratio of the coordinates of the image to the coordinates of the pre-image.

Given : ΔRST is dilated about the origin, O, to create ΔR'S'T'. Point R is located at (3, 9), and point R' is located at (1.2, 3.6).

Then , the scale factor for dilation is given by :-

$k=\frac{\text{x-coordinate of R'}}{\text{x-coordinate of R}}\n\n=(1.2)/(3)=0.4$

Therefore , the scale factor was used to perform the dilation= 0.4.

We know that Center 1 collects 715 pints per day and Center 2 collects 1035 pints per day.

They are asking for the estimated combined amount of blood from both centers in 3 days.

Estimate 715 as 700, and 1035 as 1000

This is written as

3(700+1000)= estimated total amount

To evaluate, simplify.

3(1700)= 5100 pints in 3 days from both centers

What is the volume of a ball that has the length 1.3 cm has the width of 1.3 cm and has the height of 1.3 cm?

Answers

I'm taking these lengths as the diameter of this ball.

A ball is in the shape of a sphere.

The formula for finding the volume of a sphere is: $(4)/(3) \pi r^3$

$\r$ = 0.65

∴ Volume = $(4)/(3)*(22)/(7) * 0.65*0.65$

= $1.77 cm^2$ (approx.)
