Answer:

It was used    \frac{1}{3}   as scale factor.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is the ratio of two corresponding side lengths of similar figures. Similar figures have the same shape but are of different sizes.

To find the scale factor that was used when going from the grey triangle to the yellow triangle we can work with any of the three sides of the grey triangle.

Let's work with the below side.

The below side is extended from the point (-2,4) to the point (7,4)

The length of this side is 9 units.

In the yellow triangle, we can see that the below side is extended from the point (2,0) to the point (5,0)

The length of this side is 3 units.

Working with the lengths and the scale factor ⇒

(9units).(ScaleFactor)=3units

ScaleFactor=\frac{3units}{9units}=\frac{1}{3}

We find that the scale factor that was used when going from the grey triangle to the yellow triangle is \frac{1}{3}

How to find the area of each face of a prism
tatiyna

If the face is a square, then (l*l)

If the face is a triangle, then (b*h)(1/2)

If the face is a rectangle, then (l*w)

If the face is a circle, then (r²)(3.14)

You can then add all these faces up to get the total surface area of the prism.

in an election for mayor,85,034 people voted for carl Green and 67,952 people voted for maria Lewis.By how many votes did Carl G
mario62 [17]
So, do get the answer, you have to find out who got more of the votes, either Carl Green or Maria Lewis. Once you have found out who has more votes, you take the bigger number and subtract the smaller number from it. If you get a negative number, or a number below 0, you have unfortunately have the wrong answer for the problem

1. What are the first five terms of the sequence given by the formula an = 5n + 1?
Dvinal [7]

The correct answers are:

(1) 6, 11, 16, 21, 26 (Option B)

(2)~a_1 = 8; ~a_n = a_{n-1} - 2~ (Option A)

(3)~a_n = -2 + 3(n-1)~~~~ (Option D)

Explanations:

(1) Given Sequence:

a_n = 5n + 1

Now in order to find the first 5 terms, we need to put n=1,2,3,4,5 in the above sequence and solve.

For n=1: a_1 = 5(1) + 1 = 6

For n=2: a_2 = 5(2) + 1 = 11

For n=3: a_3 = 5(3) + 1 = 16

For n=4: a_4 = 5(4) + 1 = 21

For n=5: a_5 = 5(5) + 1 = 26

Hence, the first five terms are: 6, 11, 16, 21, 26 (Option B)

(2) Given Sequence:

8, 6, 4, 2, …

Now to find the recursive definition, we need to adopt trial-and-error approach.

As, a_1 = 8 (meaning the first element of the sequence is 8), the second or nth value of the sequence can be found by using the following formula:

a_n = a_{n-1} - d --- (1)

Where, n = the index of the number in a sequence

d = difference between two consecutive numbers = 8-6 = 2

Now,

The second number of the sequence has to be 6 by using (1). Put n = 2 and d = 2 in (1):

a_2 = a_{2-1} - 2

a_2 = a_{1} - 2

Since a_1 = 8, therefore,

a_2 = 8 - 2 = 6 (correct)

Hence the correct answer is a_1 = 8; ~a_n = a_{n-1} - 2~ (Option A)

(3) Given Sequence:

−2, 1, 4, 7, …

To find the explicit definition, use the following formula:

a_n = a_1 + (n-1)*d --- (X)

Where,

a_n = nth~term~of~the~sequence \\a_1 = 1st~term~of~the~sequence = -2 \\d = common~difference = 4-1 = 7-4 = 3 \\n = index~of~a~number~in~a~sequence \\

Plug in the values in (X):

(X)=> a_n = -2 + (n-1)*3~~~~ (Option D)

what are the hypotheseses for the global test of the multiple regression model with three independent variables
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a multiple regression model with 3 independent variables,

Y = A0 + A1X1 + A2X2 + A3X3

The hypotheses for the global test of a multiple regression model are:

Null hypothesis H0: there is no relationship between the slopes - A1, A2, A3 - and the outcome. A1, A2, A3 = 0; R^2 = 0

Alternative hypothesis H1: there is a relationship between at least one of the slopes and the outcome. One of A1, A2, A3 is not equal to zero. R^2 is not equal to zero.
