Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A similarity transformation is one or more rigid transformations (reflection, rotation, translation) followed by a dilation. When a figure is transformed by a similarity transformation, an image is created that is similar to the original figure

Similar figures are always the same shape, but not the same size. They have equal angles but not equal side lengths. Check out a big square and a small square. They're both squares because they have four sides and four equal angles, but the sides aren't the same length.

Check the angles and corresponding sides: All the angles in a rectangle are congruent to each other and now check that the sides are proportional to each other. 2. Scale factor: If two polygons are similar, then the ratio of the lengths of the two corresponding sides is the scale factor.

In a paint factory, an old conveyer line has filled 20 barrels of paint, and is filling more at a rate of 7 barrels per minute.

vagabundo [1.1K]

It takes 10 minutes for the two lines to have filled an equal number of barrels

Each line will have filled 90 barrels

Solution:

Let "x" be the number of minutes

The old conveyer line has filled 20 barrels of paint, and is filling more at a rate of 7 barrels per minute

Thus, a equation is framed as follows:

Old conveyor: 20 + 7(number of minutes)

Old conveyor: 20 + 7x ------- eqn 1

A worker just switched on a newer line that can fill 9 barrels per minute

Thus, a equation is framed as follows:

New conveyor: 9(number of minutes)

New conveyor: 9x -------- eqn 2

In a little while, the two lines will have filled an equal number of barrels.

Thus, eqn 1 must be equal to eqn 2

$20 + 7x =9x\\\\9x - 7x = 20\\\\2x = 20\\\\x = 10$

Thus it takes 10 minutes for the two lines to have filled an equal number of barrels

How many barrels will each line have filled?

Substitute x = 10 in any one of equations

Substitute in eqn 2

9x = 9(10) = 90

Thus each line will have filled 90 barrels

A 42-inch piece of steel is cut into 3 pieces so that the 2nd piece is twice as long as the 1st piece, and the 3rd piece is 2 in

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

1st piece = Piece A = 5 inches

2nd piece = Piece B = 10 inches

Third Piece = Piece C = 27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A 42-inch piece of steel is cut into 3 pieces

Let the lengths be represented as:

1st piece = Piece A

2nd piece = Piece B

Third Piece = Piece C

Hence:

A + B + C = 42

The 2nd piece is twice as long as the 1st piece

B = 2A

The 3rd piece is 2 inches more than 5 times the length of the first piece.

C = 5A + 2

Hence: we substitute

A + B + C = 42 inches

A + 2A + 5A + 2 = 42 inches

8A = 42 - 2

8A = 40 inches

A = 40 inches/8

A = 5 inches

Solving for B

B = 2A

B = 2 × 5 inches

B = 10 inches

Solving for C

C = 5A + 2

C = 5 × 5 + 2

C = 25 + 2

C = 27 inches

Therefore, the lengths of the 3 pieces =

1st piece = Piece A = 5 inches

2nd piece = Piece B = 10 inches

Third Piece = Piece C = 27 inches

Mary and Jane both took PSY230 last semester but they were in two different sections taught by different professors. Mary's clas

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, Jane did better in class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

Whoever's grade had the better z-score did better in class.

Mary's:

Mean of 85, standard deviation of 5, grade of 88. This means that $\mu = 85, \sigma = 5, X = 88$ . So
