Answer: The answer is given below.

Step-by-step explanation: The given circles are:

Circle 1: centre (2, 3) and radius 4

Circle 2: centre (2, 3) and radius 12.

The equations of circle 1 and circle 2 are respectively given as :

$(x-2)^2+(y-3)^2=4^2,\\\\(x-2)^2+(y-3)^2=12^2.$

These two circles are drawn on the graph as shown in the attached figure.

We can easily see that the Circle 2 is a dilation of Circle 1 with a scale factor

$S=\dfrac{12}{4}=3.$

Thus, the two circles are similar.

Answer:

The probability that between 79% and 81%of the 500 sampled wildlife watchers actively observed mammals in 2011 is P=0.412.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the population proportion π=0.8, according to the 2011 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation.

If we take a sample from this population, and assuming the proportion is correct, it is expected that the sample's proportion to be equal to the population's proportion.

The standard deviation of the sample is equal to:

$\sigma_s=\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{N}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{500}}=0.018$

With the mean and the standard deviaion of the sample, we can calculate the z-value for 0.79 and 0.81:

$z=\frac{p-\pi}{\sigma}=\frac{0.79-0.80}{0.018} =\frac{-0.01}{0.018} = -0.55\\\\z=\frac{p-\pi}{\sigma}=\frac{0.81-0.80}{0.018} =\frac{0.01}{0.018} = 0.55$
