The distance between points S' and S is x= 2.5 units.
<h2>Given that</h2>Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ 2. 25.
Point Q is the center of dilation.
Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S prime T prime.
The length of QT is 1. 2 and the length of QS is 2.
The length of SS prime is x and the length of TT prime is 1. 5.
<h3>We have to determine</h3>What is x, the distance between points S' and S?
<h3>According to the question</h3>Line segment ST is dilated to create line segment S'T' using the dilation rule DQ, 2.25.
Also, SQ = 2 units, TQ = 1.2 units, TT'=1.5, SS' = x.
Since the line ST is dilated to S'T' with the center of dilation Q, the triangles STQ and S'T'Q must be similar.
We know that the corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.
So, from ΔSTQ and ΔS'T'Q.
Hence, the distance between points S' and S is x= 2.5 units.

Answer:
C. The distribution for town A is symmetric, but the distribution for
town B is negatively skewed.
Step-by-step Explanation:
From the box plots attached in the diagram below, which shows data of low temperatures for town A and town B for some days, we can compare the shapes of the box plot by visually analysing both box plots and how the data for each town is distributed.
=> For town A, the shape of the box plot is symmetric because both quartiles seem equal, and the median also divides the rectangular box into two equal halves. Both whiskers also appear to be of equal lengths.
The box plot for Town A takes a symmetric shape, and this shows a typical normal distribution of data.
=> On the other hand, Town B data distribution is different. The median seem close to the top half of the box and does not divide the box into equal halves. This shows the distribution is skewed. Since the whisker is shorter from the upper end of the box to the left side, we can infer that the distribution for Town B is skewed to the left, and it is negatively skewed.
=> The right comparison of the shapes of the box plots is "C. The distribution for town A is symmetric, but the distribution for town B is negatively skewed."
