C. II, III, and IV only

Step-by-step explanation:

Lol I haven't done one of these in a while, so thanks for the practice!

It's important to note that a dilation does NOT change the angles of the shape whatsoever. By this, you know that II and III are automatically correct, which rules out A and B. After that, you can look at I, which is the only difference between C and D. Since the dilation factor is 2/3, the parallelogram you see is smaller than the original. Since in I, the original would be larger than the denominator, the correct answer would be at least greater than one (to be precise, it'd be 3/2). To make everything easier, you can find the value by assigning the original side a value of 1, which would make the prime value 2/3. 1/(2/3) is going to be 3/2.

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

47 - 90 = 43

43 - 180 = x

x = 137
