If two towns that are 32 km apart are 8 cm on a map. Then the scale factor will be 1 cm = 4 km.

<h3>What is dilation?</h3>

Dilation is the process of increasing the size of an item without affecting its form. Depending on the scale factor, the object's size can be raised or lowered.

Two towns that are 32 km apart are 8 cm on a map.

Then the scale factor will be

8 cm = 32 km

1 cm = 4 km

More about the dilation link is given below.

Answer:

a) sample size is 40

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

$\sigma=4$ minutes

Margin of error, E is 75 seconds E=75/60= 1.25 minutes.

The level of significance $\alpha= 0.05$ for 95% level of significance

For 95% confidence interval $z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=1.96$ from standard deviation table

Sample size required, n

$n=\left (\frac{z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\cdot \sigma}{E} \right )^{2}=\left (\frac{1.96\cdot4}{75/60} \right )^{2}=39.337984$

Rounding off, n=40

Sample size =40

Charles bought 7/8 foot of electrical wire and 5/6 foot of copper wire for his science project .What is the least common denomin

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

The least common denominator of the fractions is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>least common denominator</u> (LCD) is the smallest number that can be a common denominator for a set of fractions

we have

7/8

Multiples of 8 -------> 8,16,24,32,...

5/6

Multiples of 6 -------> 6,12,18,24,...

24 is a common multiple of 6 and 8. It is their lowest common multiple

<em>Alternative Method</em>

we have

$8=2^{3}$

$6=2*3$

The least common multiple are those common and non-common numbers with the greatest exponent

$lcm= 2^{3}*3=24$
