Rectangle wxyz was dilated to create w'x'y'z'.
what is w'x'? 0.5 units 1.2 units 1.5 units 1.8 units

You did not attach any picture to solve this problem. We cannot calculate for the value W’X’ without the correct illustrations. However, I think I found the correct one (see attached), please attach it next time.

So the first thing we have to do is to calculate for the dilation factor. Taking point G as the reference point, we can see that the distance of point G from rectangle W’X’Y’Z’ is 1.5 while the distance from rectangle WXYZ is (1.5 + 7.5), therefore the dilation factor to use is:

dilation factor = 1.5 / (1.5 + 7.5) = 1.5 / 9 = 1/6

Since WX has an initial measure of 3 units, therefore the measure of W’X’ is:

W’X’ = 3 units * (1/6) = 0.5 units

0.5 units

the distance between the school and her home is 3.6km.

12 mins = 0.2 hours = 1/5 hour

54 ÷ 3 = 18km per hour

1/5 of 18 = 3.6km per 12 mins
