Segment /XY is dilated using a scale factor of 2/3 through P. Which segment shows the correct result of the dilation?
line a
line b
line c
line d

Answer 1

Answer:Line C

Line C

Step-by-step explanation: I did the test : )

Answer 2

line c

Explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and is called the scale factor

Let

z-----> the scale factor

m----> the distance from P to the dilated line

we have

`z=(2)/(3)`

`(2)/(3)=(m)/((4+2+2+2+2))\\ \\m=12*2/3\\ m=8\ units`

The dilated line at
`8` units of P is the line c
