What is the image of (-4, -12) after a dilation by a scale factor of centered at the 1/4 origin?

9514 1404 393

  (-1, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Each coordinate is multiplied by the dilation factor when dilation is centered at the origin.

  (1/4)(-4, -12) = (-1, -3) . . . . the image of the given point

)

3+11

14

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )
