Question 19: Given are line m and point P not on m. What can be the image of m under a dilation with the center P?

Explanation:

Imagine two points S with coordinates (a,b) and T with coordinates (c,d) on the line m.

For your convenience choose the point P as the center of your coordinate system.

Then, when you dilate the line m by a factor K, the images of the points S and T, S' and T', will have coordinates (K × a, K × b) and (K × c, K × d), respectively.

Thus, the slope of the image of the line m, to which the segment S'T' belong, is:

Hence, the slope of the line m  and its image are equal,which means that they are parallel.

a.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1 distribute 2 to every term in the parentheses

step 2 add 10 on both sides of the equal sign

b. would be the answer : )

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: add -16x to both sides.

16x−4y+−16x=64+−16x  

−4y=−16x+64

step 2: divide both sides by -4.

−4y /-4 = -16x + 64/-4

answer:   y=4x−16

hope i'm right
