What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Mathematics

The rule for dilation (scale factor k) about the origin is given by:
(x,y)->(kx,ky)

The scale factor k can be obtained from any one of the ratios:
scale\, factor\, =\, k\, = \frac{OD'}{OD}=\frac{OE'}{OE}=\frac{OF'}{OF}=\frac{OG'}{OG}=\frac{1}{2}

Answer:

The scale factor of the dilation is \frac{1}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure it is clear that the vertices of figure DEFG are D(4,8), E(8,8), F(8,6), G(4,6).

The vertices of image D'E'F'G' are D'(2,4), E'(4,4), F'(4,3), G'(2,3).

From the figure it is clear that DF=4 units and D'F'=2 units.

The scale factor is proportion of corresponding sides of image and preimage.

k=(D'F')/(DF)

Substitute DF=4 units and D'F'=2 units.

k=(2)/(4)

k = \frac{1}{2}

Therefore the scale factor of the dilation is \frac{1}{2}.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

(1.218 ; 1.322)

the confidence interval is appropriate

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval :

Mean ± margin of error

Sample mean = 1.27

Sample standard deviation, s = 0.80

Sample size, n = 914

Since we are using tbe sample standard deviation, we use the T table ;

Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/√n

Tcritical at 95% ; df = 914 - 1 = 913

Tcritical(0.05, 913) = 1.96

Margin of Error = 1.96 * 0.80/√914 = 0.05186

Mean ± margin of error

1.27 ± 0.05186

Lower boundary = 1.27 - 0.05186 = 1.218

Upper boundary = 1.27 + 0.05186 = 1.322

(1.218 ; 1.322)

According to the central limit theorem, sample means will approach a normal distribution as the sample size increases. Hence, the confidence interval is valid, the sample size of 914 gave a critical value at 0.05 which is only marginally different from that will obtained using a normal distribution table. Hence, the confidence interval is appropriate
