What is the scale factor as a percent that will result if the rule is applied to a point (x,y) on a coordinate grid?
1.
(1.5x,1.5y) is it, 150% 15% 1.5% or none of these?
2.
(0.7x,0.7y)is it 700% 7% 0.7% or none of these?
150%
none (should be 70%)
recall that 1.0 = 100%
Oh ok! Thank you! :-)
Hi Jishka your really smart could you help me I am bad.
That was me, I meant to say my name was sis by the way!
Can you explain how?
To find the scale factor as a percent, we can compare the new values with the original values.
1. For the first rule, (1.5x, 1.5y), the scale factor can be found by dividing the new value (1.5) by the original value (1). So, the scale factor is 1.5. To express this as a percentage, we can multiply the scale factor by 100. Therefore, the scale factor as a percent is 150%.
2. For the second rule, (0.7x, 0.7y), the scale factor is 0.7. To express this as a percentage, we multiply the scale factor by 100. The scale factor as a percent is 70%.
So, the answers to your questions are:
1. The scale factor as a percent for (1.5x, 1.5y) is 150%.
2. The scale factor as a percent for (0.7x, 0.7y) is 70%.
