Can dilations be used to form scale copies of a figure?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Inessa [10]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways that dilation is used in real life. Here are several:

In graphic design. I actually do some graphic design, and I use dilation a lot. It is common to dilate photos to fit the space that you want it to fit.

In police work and crime investigation. Detectives and police dilate photos to see smaller details and evidence.

In architecture. It is normal for architects to make a prototype of their design or building. In order to make the building true to the prototype, they must dilate the scale and measurements.

In the doctor's office. Dilation is used in eye exams so that the eye doctor can view the patient's eye better. After a while it will slowly reduce in size and return back to normal.

The following data give the prices of seven textbooks randomly selected from a university bookstore.
swat32

Answer:

a) Mean = $121

Sum of deviations = $0

b) Standard deviation = 41.19

Variance = 1696.67

Range = $120

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data:

$91 , $176 , $108 , $115 , $56 , $157 , $144

a) Mean and sum of deviations

Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{847}{7} = 121

Sum of deviations =

-30 + 55 - 13 - 6 - 65 + 36 + 23 = 0

The sum of deviations is zero dollars.

b) range, variance, and standard deviation

\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}  

where x_i are data points, \bar{x} is the mean and n is the number of observations.

Sum of square of differences =

900 + 3025 + 169 + 36 + 4225 + 1296 + 529 = 10180

\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{10180}{6}} = 41.19\\\\\sigma^2 = 1696.67

Sorted data: 56, 91, 108, 115, 144, 157, 176

Range = Maximum - Minimum

Range = 176 - 56 = 120

Let f(x) = x2 and g(x) = x - 3.<br> Evaluate (gºf)(-2).<br> A. -20<br> B. 20<br> C. 7<br> D. 1
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

D. 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find g of f(x)

g(f(x)) = (x²) - 3

Step 2: Plug in -2 as <em>x</em>

g(f(x))(-2) = (-2)² - 3

g(f(x))(-2) = 4 - 3

g(f(x))(-2) = 1

The figure shows the dimensions of a wall having a door and window of a room. Write an algebraic expression for the area of the
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Area of the wall to be painted = (11x² + 12x) square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure that should be attached to this question is missing. The figure was obtained and is attached to this solution provided.

From the image attached, it is given that the dimension of the rectangular wall to be painted is (4x+3) by (4x), the dimensions of the window is (2x) by (x) and the dimensions of the door is (x) by (3x).

Since, the window space and the door space cannot be painted along with the wall, the Area of the rectangular wall that will be painted will be given by the expression

(Total Area of the rectangular wall) - [(Area of window space) + (Area of door space)]

Area of a rectangular figure = Length × Breadth

Total area of rectangular wall = (4x+3) × 4x = (16x² + 12x) square units

Area of window space = (2x) × (x) = (2x²) square units

Area of door space = (x) × (3x) = (3x²) square units

Area of the wall to be painted = (16x² + 12x) - (2x² + 3x²)

= 16x² + 12x - 5x²

= (11x² + 12x) square units

Hope this Helps!!!
