The points represent the vertices of a polygon. Use a matrix to find the coordinates of the image after the given transformation. Graph the preimage and the image. W(2, 0), X(0, 2), Y(–1, 0), and Z(1, –2); a dilation of 2.5

Use addition and subtraction to simplify the following polynomials. a. add polynomials: (3 – 4x + 8x^2) + (–6 + 2x – 5x^2) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial. b. subtract polynomials: (3x – 5 – 7x^2) – (–2 + 6x^2 – 5x) step 1: rewrite the polynomials without the parentheses. remember to multiply each term in the second parentheses by –1. show your work. step 2: write the polynomial in descending order and use parentheses around like terms. step 3: add the like terms identified in step 2 to simplify the polynomial.

Which best describes the function on the graph? direct variation; k = −2 direct variation; k = -1/2 inverse variation; k = −2 inverse variation; k = -1/2

Areflection of shape i across the y-axis, followed by a , and then a translation left 6 units and down 4 units confirms congruence between shape i and shape ii. alternatively, a of shape ii about the origin, followed by a reflection across the y-axis, and then a translation right 4 units and up 6 units confirms congruence between shape ii and shape i.
