Answer:

c 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You are incorrect.

We are going from ABCDEFGH to A'B'C'D'E'F'G'H'. We are going from the large octagon to the small octagon. The scale factor of a dilation is the number you multiply the original lengths to get the lengths of the dilation.

$scale~factor = \dfrac{length~of~dimension~in~dilated~image}{length~of~corresponding~dimension~in~original~figure}$

Look at point (6, 0) which becomes (3, 0) in the dilation.

The distance from the origin to (6, 0) is 6 units.

The distance from the origin to (3, 0) is 3 units.

scale factor = dilated/original = 3/6 = 1/2

The scale factor of the dilation is 1/2.

Also look at segment AB whose length is 4. The length of segment A'B' is 2.

scale factor = dilated/original = 2/4 = 1/2

Answer: 1/2

lys-0071 [83]

8+7+2= 17 total
First blue chip chance = 8/17
Second blue chip chance = 7/16 as it’s without replacement so the total decreases by 1.
Green chip= 7/15 as again without replacement the total has been reduced by 2

Solve for L: P=2L+2W

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$L=\frac{1}{2}P-W$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for L.

$P=2L+2W$

Step 1: Flip the equation.

$2L+2W=P$

Step 2: Add $-2W$ to both sides.

$2L+2W+-2W=P+-2W$

$2L=P-2W$

Step 3: Divide both sides by $2$ .

$\frac{2L}{2}=\frac{P-2W}{2}$

$L=\frac{1}{2}P-W$

Answer:

$L=\frac{1}{2}P-W$

According to records, the amount of precipitation in a certain city on a November day has a mean of inches, with a standard devi

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

The probability that the mean daily precipitation will be of X inches or less for a random sample of n November days is the p-value of $Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ , in which $\mu$ is mean amount of inches of rain and $\sigma$ is the standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

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

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question:

Mean $\mu$ , standard deviation $\sigma$

n days:

This means that $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Applying the Central Limit Theorem to the z-score formula.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

What is the probability that the mean daily precipitation will be of X inches or less for a random sample of November days?

Which of the following expressions is 0.00012 written in scientific notation? A. 0.12 × 10^-3 B. 1.2 × 10^-4 C. 12 × 10^-5 D. 1.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

B. 1.2 x $10^{-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers. A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10. For example, 650,000,000 can be written in scientific notation as 6.5 ✕ 10^8. Or, in this case it's the opposite since we have a negative number. Since it's a decimal it's multiplied by 10 still but the exponent is negative. All we need to do to find what the exponent would be in this case is to count the number of zeros before the "12." There are 4 zeros before the 12. So your exponent would be -4. Now all we need to do is write out "equation" per say.

1.2 x 10^-4

Hello and Good Morning/Afternoon

Let's tale this problem step-by-step:

What does the problem want:

$\hookrightarrow \text{the unemployment compensation}$

Employment compensation =55% of the average of the last 26-week salary

$\hookrightarrow \text{Average of Natalia's salary} = (\text{all the salaries added up}) / (\text{number of weeks})\\\hookrightarrow \text{Average of Natalia's salary} = 18940 / 26 = 728.46 \text{ (Rounded down)}$

⇒ 55% of that average

$\hookrightarrow \frac{55}{100} *728.46 = 400.65$

Answer: $400.65

Hope that helps!
