Graph the polygon and its image after a dilation with scale factor k. J(-3, 4), K(2, 1), L(3, -2), M(-5, -4); k = 50%

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.

i don't even know how to read that, ill try to do it if you translate it into english.

step-by-step explanation:

1 simplify brackets

-\frac{8}{9}\times \frac{5}{6}−

-\frac{8\times 5}{9\times 6}−

​9×6

3 simplify 8\times 58×5 to 4040

-\frac{40}{9\times 6}−

​9×6
