Ruth borrowed a book from the library. The library charged a fixed rental for the book and a late fee for every day the book was overdue. The expression below shows the chargesRuth paid for the book when she returned it x days after the due date: 2 + 0.25x what does the second term of expression represent?

The late fee per day for the book

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + .25x

The 2 is the fixed rental for the book

.25x is the late fee per day  where .25 is the charge per day and x is the number of days

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
