Does a dialation preserve an objects size

No, it does not. A dilation is used to change the figures size. It can make an object bigger or smaller. However, dilations make the figure stay the same shape.


If you wanted to preserve an objects size you would mostly use one of the three rigid motions.


They are as follows: Translation, reflection and rotation.


To be a rigid, the transformation MUST leave the size and shape of an object the same.


As an extra fact, a dilation is not a rigid motion.


Hope this helps!!

No.
When you dilate an object, you multiply the values of the points of the figure by a set value. This results in an increase or decrease in size.

const2013 [10]

Answer:

The measure of variability should be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that Rickie played eight rounds of miniature golf in June and eight rounds of miniature golf in July. He recorded the cores for each round.

Now to determine in which month Rickie's score varied the most the measure of variability would be used and not measure of center.

This is because:

The Measures of Central tendency is a distinct value that describe a data set by recognizing the central location within that data set. The measures of central tendency are every so often are known as measures of central location. They are also known as summary statistics.

Whereas the measure of variability is used to determine the amount of variability in the data set. They represent how far the observations are from the center of the data set.

Thus, to answer his mother's question, the measure of variability should be used.
