Choose the dilation that would represent a reduction a. k=2 b. k=4/3 c. k=3/4 d. k=1.2

For this case, the first thing you should know is that there are two possible cases:

 Case 1:
 If 0 <k <1 then there is a reduction of the orignal figure.

 Case 2:
 If k> 1 then there is an expansion of the originial figure.

 Therefore, in this case, the scale factor that represents a reduction is given by:
 k = 3/4 = 0.75 (0 <k <1)

 
 the dilation that would represent a reduction is:
 C. k = 3/4

Idon’t know actually i’m in 5th grade and don’t know

Answerthe simplified expression isexplanationthe given expression is,let us deal with the bracket first.the two negatives in the parenthesis will become positive.the expression now becomes,we now expand the parenthesis to get,we group like terms to obtain,this simplifies to,
