The article "High Cumulative Risk of Lung Cancer Death among Smokers and Nonsmokers" (P. Brennan, et al. American Journal of Epi

demiology , 2006:1233–1241) states that the probability is 0.24 that a man who is a heavy smoker will contract lung cancer. True or false:
a. In a sample of 100 men who are heavy smokers, exactly 24 of them will contract lung cancer.
b. In a sample of 100 men who are heavy smokers, the number who will contract lung cancer is likely to be close to 24, but not exactly equal to 24.
c. As more and more heavy-smoking men are sampled, the proportion who contract lung cancer will approach 0.24.

You are remodeling your kitchen. You've contacted two tiling companies who gladly told you how long it took their workers to til
Ray Of Light [21]
The answer is 7x = 6(x + 15)

x - Jim's rate
y - Pete's rate
<span>Jim completed half the floor in 7 hours:  7x = half of the floor
</span><span>Pete completed the other half of the floor in 6 hours:    6y = half of the floor
So: 7x = 6y

</span><span>Pete can lay 15 more tiles per hour than Jim: y = x + 15

</span>7x = 6y
y = x + 15

Substitute the second equation into the first one:
7x = 6(x + 15)

What set of transformations could be applied to rectangle ABCD to create A″B″C″D″? 'Rectangle formed by ordered pairs A at negat
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Reflection over the y-axis and rotation of 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Rectangle ABCD with co-ordinates A(-4,2), B(-4,1), C(-1,1) and D(-1,2).

It is transformed to a new rectangle A'B'C'D' with co-ordinates A'(-4,-2), B'(-4,-1), C'(-1,-1) and D'(-1,-2).

The graph of both the triangles is shown below.

we see that,

The rectangle ABCD is reflected about y-axis and then rotated 180° to obtain A'B'C'D'.

                     Reflected about y-axis                     Rotation of 180°

A= (-4,2)                     (4,2)                                              A'= (-4,-2)

B= (-4,1)                      (4,1)                                                B'= (-4,-1)

C= (-1,1)                       (1,1)                                                 C'= (-1,-1)

D= (-1,2)                      (1,2)                                                 D'= (-1,-2)

Hence, the second rectangle is formed by: Reflection over the y-axis and rotation of 180°.
