Rectangle abcd is similar to rectangle wxyz. what is the value of ab if wx is & feet, ad is 12 feet, and wz is 16 feet?

Similar rectangles states that the corresponding sides are in proportion.

As per the statement:

Rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle WXYZ.

WX = 8 feet, AD = 12 feet and WZ = 16 feet.

Since. Rectangle ABCD and rectangle WXYZ are similar

then;

their corresponding sides are in proportion:

To find the value of AB:

Substitute the given values we have;

Multiply both sides by 8 we have;

Therefore, the value of AB is 6 units.

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x^2 -1 

translation is a function transformation that transform the function in a way of translating. by translating the function its graph is moved  up an down. moving the function f(x) 2 units to the left will be the new function g(x) with the equation: g(x)=f(x+2)=2(x+2)^2 -1
