What is the scale factor of 3,6 and 4.5, 9

1 answer:

8 0

To determine scale factor, we have to see what the common factor we multiply each term by in order to get the other two terms. To do this, we have to divide the corresponding values: 4.5/3 = 1.5. 9/6 = 1.5. Thus, since both pairs of numbers produced the same factor, it is 1.5

To solve this problem, we need to first find the dimensions of the side of the blue and purple squares.

We're given that the purple (smaller) square has a side length of x inches.
We are also given that the blue band has a width of 5 inches.
Since the blue band surrounds the purple square on both sides, the length of the blue square is x+2(5)=x+10 inches.

The net area of the band is therefore the difference of the area of the blue square and the purple square, namely take out the area of the purple square from the blue.

Therefore
Area of band
$=(x+10)^2-x^2$ [recall $(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$
$=x^2+20x+100-x^2$
$=20x+100$ or 20(x+5) if you wish.

Answer:

20.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$
