Answer:

7

Explanation:

From the question, we're told that triangles AMY and MEG are similar. If triangle AMY has sides AM = 5, MY = 7, and AY = 3 then we can find the side lengths of triangle MEG since we're told from the question that it is a dilation of AMY by a scale factor of 1/3.

So all we need to is multiply the corresponding sides of AMY by 1/3, so we'll have;

\begin{gathered} ME=5\ast\frac{1}{3}=\frac{5}{3} \\ EG=7\ast\frac{1}{3}=\frac{7}{3} \\ MG=3\ast\frac{1}{3}=3 \end{gathered}

We can then go ahead and find the perimeter of MEG. Note that to find the perimeter of a triangle, we add all the length of its sides;

\begin{gathered} \text{Perimeter of MEG}=\frac{5}{3}+\frac{7}{3}+3 \\ =\frac{5+7+9}{3} \\ =\frac{21}{3} \\ =7 \end{gathered}

The perimeter of MEG is 7.

Are my answers correct?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

20 is x ≥ 25

Step-by-step explanation:

In number 20 you put x is less than or equal to 25 ( x ≤ 25 )

It should be x is greater than or equal to 25 ( x ≥ 25 ) because it says it cannot be less than 25.

All your other answers are correct. Good job.

Answer: Prokhorova is more outstanding.

Step-by-step explanation: To compare scores from different distributions, first standardize it:

z-score = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

where

x is the individual mean you want to compare

μ is the mean of the population

σ is standard deviation

For <u>Gertrud Bacher</u>:

z-score = \frac{129-137}{5}

z-score = -1.6 (s)

The negative sign indicates Bacher's mean is less than the mean

For <u>Yelena Prokhorova</u>:

z-score = \frac{660-600}{30}

z-score = 2 (cm)

The positive sign indicates Prokhorova's mean is more than the mean.

Using z-score table, you determine the percentiles are:

For Bacher: Percentile = 5.5%

For Prokhorova: Percentile = 97.7%

Bacher's percentile means she is above 5.5% of the participants, while Prokhorova is 97.7% above the other competitors, which means Prokhorova have a better performance and deserves more points.
