Answer:

15 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply multiply the base times the height of the cross section. So 3 x 5 is 15

Which describes how square S could be transformed to square S prime in two steps? Assume that the center of dilation is the orig
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A dilation by a scale factor of Two-fifths and then a translation of 3 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the coordinates of the vertices of square S are

(0, 0), (5, 0), (5, -5), (0, -5)

Given that the coordinates of the vertices of square S' are

(0, 1), (0, 3), (2, 3), (2, 1)

We have;

Length of side, s, for square S is s = √((y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²)

Where;

(x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the coordinates of two consecutive vertices

When (x₁, y₁) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂) = (5, 0), we have;

s = √((y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²) = s₁ = √((0 - 0)² + (5 - 0)²) = √(5)² = 5

For square S', where (x₁, y₁) = (0, 1) and (x₂, y₂) = (0, 3)

Length of side, s₂, for square S' is s₂ = √((3 - 1)² + (0 - 0)²) = √(2)² = 2

Therefore;

The transformation of square S to S' involves a dilation of s₂/s₁ = 2/5

The after the dilation (about the origin),  the coordinates of S becomes;

(0, 0) transformed to (remains at) (0, 0) ....center of dilation

(5, 0) transformed to (5×2/5, 0) = (2, 0)

(5, -5) transformed to (2, -2)

(0, -5) transformed to (0, -2)

Comparison of (0, 0), (2, 0), (2, -2), (0, -2) and (0, 1), (0, 3), (2, 3), (2, 1) shows that the orientation is the same;

For (0, 0), (2, 0), (2, -2), (0, -2) we have;

(0, 0), (2, 0) the same y-values, (∴parallel to the x-axis)

(2, -2), (0, -2) the same y-values, (∴parallel to the x-axis)

For (0, 1), (0, 3), (2, 3), (2, 1) we have;

(0, 3), (2, 3) the same y-values, (∴parallel to the x-axis)

(0, 1), (2, 1) the same y-values, (∴parallel to the x-axis)

Therefore, the lowermost point closest to the y-axis in (0, 0), (2, 0), (2, -2), (0, -2) which is (0, -2) is translated to the lowermost point closest to the y-axis in (0, 1), (0, 3), (2, 3), (2, 1) which is (0, 1)

That is (0, -2) is translated to (0, 1) which shows that the translation is T((0 - 0), (1 - (-2)) = T(0, 3) or 3 units up

The correct option is therefore a dilation by a scale factor of Two-fifths and then a translation of 3 units up.

The number of patients treated at Dr. McCormick’s dentist office each day was recorded for nine days. These are the data: 13, 16
NARA [144]
First, lets sort the list from smallest to greatest. This will help with median, mode, and range.

4, 6, 10, 12, 12, 13, 16, 16, 16

Next, lets find the mean. Mean is found by adding all numbers up, then dividing them by the number of entries in the data set.

4+6+10+12+12+13+16+16+16 = 105
105 / 9 = 11.7

So the mean is 11.7.

Next, we'll find the median. The median is the value in the center of the list. Because there are 9 values, that means the center of the list is 5 with four numbers on each side of it. The 5th number in the list is 12, so that's our median.

Continuing, the mode is the number or numbers that appears the most often. For this data set, 16 appears 3 times while all other numbers appear 2 times or less. So, the mode is 16.

Lastly, the range is the difference between the largest number and the smallest number.

16 - 4 = 12

So the range is 12.

The second answer in the list matches all of these values, and is the correct solution.

Solve for x:5x/2=330/4
bezimeni [28]
First we have to get x by itself, so we multiply two on each side, 
 
then we get 5x=660/4, I like to simplify here, so I would change it to 5x=165, then we divide each side by 5

x=33
