The perimeter is 10.3.  I think that's already in significant digits, but I'm not sure.  We just got finished learning that in chemistry and it confused me to death!

Answer: The perimeter of this triangle is 10.30 inches

Solution:

The sides of a triangle measure 2.24 inches, 3.56 inches, and 4.50 inches:

a=2.24 inches

b=3.56 inches

c=4.50 inches

What is the perimeter of this triangle?

Perimeter of the triangle: P=?

The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the measurements of the sides. In the case of a triangle (three sides) with side a, b, and c:

P=a+b+c

Replacing the given values:

P=2.24 inches+3.56 inches+4.50 inches

P=10.30 inches

Triangle is reflected across the y-axis and then dilated by a factor of centered at the origin. Which statement correctly descri
love history [14]

Answer:

  A.  The reflection preserves the side lengths and angles of triangle . The dilation preserves angles but not side lengths.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection is a rigid transformation. It preserves both angles and side lengths. Dilation preserves angles, but changes all lengths by the same scale factor.

<h3>Application</h3>

The described triangle was subject to reflection, which preserves angles and lengths. It was also subject to dilation, which preserves angles, but not lengths.

The appropriate description is that of choice A.

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points J (1,-10) and K (7, 2)

From the section formula

(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}, \dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)

The y-coordinates of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 5:1 is obtained using the formula:

y=\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\\m=5, n=1, y_1=-10, y_2=2\\Therefore:\\y=\dfrac{5*2+1*-10}{5+1}\\=\dfrac{10-10}{6}\\=0

The y-coordinates of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 5:1 is 0.

The coffee Lily likes is composed of 97.3% water and 2.7% cocoa. The coffee John likes is composed of 96% water and 4% cocoa. Ho
mestny [16]

30 ounces of the coffee John likes consists of

  • 0.96\cdot30=28.8 ounces of water
  • 0.04\cdot30=1.2 ounces of cocoa

To this mixture we're adding x ounces of water, so that the new mix has a total volume of 30+x ounces and matches the composition of the coffee Lily likes. This means it would consist of

  • 0.973\cdot(30+x)=28.8+x ounces of water
  • 0.027\cdot(30+x)=1.2 ounces of cocoa (same amount of cocoa as before because pure water is being added)

Solve for x:

0.973(30+x)=28.8+x\implies29.12+0.973x=28.8+x

\implies0.39=0.027x

\implies x\approx14.4

###

Just to confirm: the new mixture consists of

  • 28.8+14.4=43.2 ounces of water
  • 1.2+0=1.2 ounces of cocoa

giving a total volume of 43.2+1.2=44.4 ounces of coffee, and \dfrac{43.2}{44.4}\approx0.973, as required.

When testing gas pumps for accuracy, fuel-quality enforcement specialists tested pumps andfound that 1304 of them were not pumpi
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The p-value of the test statistic from the standard normal table is 0.0017 which is less than the level of significance therefore, the null hypothesis would be rejected and it can be concluded that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that less than 20% of the pumps are inaccurate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, 1304 gas pumps were not pumping accurately and 5689 pumps were accurate.

x = 1304, n = 1304 + 5689 = 6993

The level of significance = 0.01

The sample proportion of pump which is not pumping accurately can be calculated as,

The claim is that the industry representative less than 20% of the pumps are inaccurate.

The hypothesis can be constructed as:

H0: p = 0.20

H1: p < 0.20

The one-sample proportion Z test will be used.

The test statistic value can be obtained as:

Z=\frac{\hat{p}-P}{\sqrt{\frac{P(1-P))}{n}}}\\\\Z=\frac{0.186-0.20}{6993}\\\\Z=-2.927
