  2. Question 1 Express 3.157 X 10-4 in standard form. Write 2.35% as a decimal.

  3. Question 2 A unit on the grid of the map of Memorial Park is 0.06 mile. Find the distance between the old oak tree at (-4, 1) and the ranger station at (4, -3).

  4. Question 3 Find the slope of line that passes through point R(-3,4) and point S(5,2)

  5. Dilations A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size. Dilation is a transformation in which each point of an object is moved along a straight line. The straight line is drawn from a fixed point called the centre of dilation. The distance the points move depends on the scale factor. In dilation, the centre of dilation is the only invariant point. Scale factor = If the scale factor is greater than 1, the image is an enlargement. If the scale factor is between 0 and 1, the image is a reduction. Example: The figure shows two similar triangles PQR and P’Q’R’.

  6. Question 4 Dilations: In the movie, King Kong, Kong is 60 feet tall. If an average gorilla is 5 feet tall, what is the scale factor of this enlargement? If an average gorilla weighs 350 lbs, how much does Kong weigh?
