consider the line y=x

a. if the line is dilated by a factor of 2 what is the equation of the resulting line?
b. if the resulting line is translated 3 units up what is the equation of the resulting line? ​

Respuesta :

Answer:

a.[tex]y=2x[/tex]

b.[tex]y=2x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a  line

[tex]y=x[/tex]

a. We have to find the equation of resulting line when the given line is dilated by  a factor of 2.

We know that when a line is dilated by a then equation of line is given by

[tex]y=ax[/tex]

We have a=2

Then, equation of line after dilation

[tex]y=2x[/tex]

b.We have to find the equation of line when resulting line is translated 3 units up

Transformation rule when the y shift 3 units upward is given by

[tex](x,y)\righarrow (x,y+3)[/tex]

When the line [tex]y=2x[/tex] is translated 3 units up then the equation of line is given by

[tex]y=2x+3[/tex]
