A pair of reading glasses shows you an image of an object that is 3.1 times the object's actual size. So the scale factor of the

enlargement is 3.1. The photo shows the glasses magnifying the Constitution by a scale factor of 3.1. If the average text size was magnified at being a height of 0.8 inches, how big must the actual text size be (round to the nearest thousandth)?

When given the scale factor and the factored size of the object, to find the original size, divide the factored size by the scale factor:


0.8 / 3.1 = 0.258 inches

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

a) In the explanation.

b) P=0.09714

c) P=0.0866

d) p=0.208

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The sampling distribution will have this properties:

1 - The sampling distribution of a proportion is equal to the binomial distribution.

2 - The mean of the sampling distribution will be equal to the proportion of the population (0.328).

\mu=\pi=0.328

3 - The standard deviation will be equal to the square root of the product of the proportion and its complementary, divided by the sample size.

\sigma_s=\sqrt{\pi(1-\pi)/n}=\sqrt{0.328*(1-0.328)/25}=0.094

B) The fraction with sample proportion of 0.45 or higher is

z=(p-\pi)/\sigma=(0.45-0.328)/0.094=1.298\\\\P(p\geq0.45)=P(z\geq 1.298)=0.09714

C) The fraction with sample proportion of 0.20 or lower is

z=(p-\pi)/\sigma=(0.2-0.328)/0.094=-1.362\\\\P(p\leq0.2)=P(z\geq -1.362)=0.0866

D) The value of p that cuts off the lower 10% of the distribution corresponds to z=-1.28.

Then we have

z=(p-\pi)/\sigma\\\\p=\pi+z\sigma=0.328+(-1.28)*0.094=0.328-0.120=0.208

If f(x) = x/2 -2 and g(x) = 2x^2 + x - 3, find (f+g) (x) A. 2x^2+3/2x +1 B. 2x^2+3/2x-5 C. x^2 - 6 D. 2X^2- x/2 + 1
Fed [463]

Answer:

              \bold{(f+g)(x)=2x^2+\frac32x-5}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =\frac x2-2\quad and\quad g(x) = 2x^2 + x - 3\\\\(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)\\\\(f+g)(x)=\frac12x-2+2x^2+x-3\\\\(f+g)(x)=2x^2+\frac32x-5

Which expression is the simplest form of (27x^-9)^1/3?
lana [24]
\sqrt[n]{a^m}=a^\frac{m}{n}\\\\\sqrt[n]{a}=a^\frac{1}{n}\\\\(a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\(a\cdot b)^n=a^n\cdot b^n\\\\(27x^{-9})^\frac{1}{3}=27^\frac{1}{3}(x^{-9})^\frac{1}{3}=\sqrt[3]{27}\cdot x^{-9\cdot\frac{1}{3}}=3x^{-3}=\dfrac{3}{x^3}
