Nick starts with 20 milligrams of a radioactive substance. The amount of the substance decreases by 12 each week for a number of

weeks, w. He writes the expression 20(12)w to find the amount of radioactive substance remaining after w weeks. Autumn starts with 1 milligram of a radioactive substance. The amount of the substance decreases by 50% each week for a number of weeks, w. She writes the expression (1−0.5)w to find the amount of radioactive substance remaining after w weeks. Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Nick's and Autumn's expressions mean.

A rectangle is transformed according to the rule R0, 90º. The image of the rectangle has vertices located at R'(–4, 4), S'(–4, 1
babunello [11817]
We understand that a rectangle has been altered into the one shown in Figure 1 using this rule:

R_0, \ 90^{\circ}

It is known that the origin is the center of rotation and two rules apply to perform a rotation of 90 degrees, namely:

1. Clockwise

The rule to convert a point in this case is:

(x,y) \rightarrow (y,-x)

This rule has already been implemented to create the image, so we need to reverse the outcome using this formula, hence:

For \ Q(-3,4): \\ \\ (y,-x)=(-3,4) \\ \\ \therefore y=-3 \ and \ -x=4 \therefore x=-4 \\ \\ Thus, \ the \ point \ is: \\ \\ \boxed{Q(-4,-3)}

2. Counterc
lockwise

Applying the same concept as before but with new rules for the scenario:

(x,y) \rightarrow (-y,x)

Reversing the outcome gives us:

For \ Q(-3,4): \\ \\ (-y,x)=(-3,4) \\ \\ \therefore -y=-3 \therefore y=3 \ and \ x=4 \\ \\ Thus, \ the \ point \ is: \\ \\ \boxed{Q(4,3)}
