Polygon ABCD is dilated, rotated, and translated to form polygon A′B′C′D′. The endpoints of AB are at (0, -7) and (8, 8), and th

e endpoints of AB are at (6, -6) and (2, 1.5). What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Rotation and translation are rigid transformations, they don't change figure sizes. Dilation change figure sizes increasing or decreasing them by scale factor.

First, find AB and A'B' by the formula:

AB=\sqrt{(x_B-x_A)^2+(y_B-y_A)^2}= \sqrt{(8-0)^2+(8-(-7))^2}=\sqrt{8^2+15^2}=\sqrt{64+225}=\sqrt{289}=17,\\ \\A'B'=\sqrt{(x_{B'}-x_{A'})^2+(y_{B'}-y_{A'})^2}= \sqrt{(2-6)^2+(1.5-(-6))^2}=\sqrt{4^2+7.5^2}=\sqrt{16+56.25}=\sqrt{72.25}=8.5.

As you can see AB=2A'B'. This means that the segment AB was decreased twice to form segment A'B'. Then the scale factor is 1/2.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

0.48

0.52

No

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Result of experiment :

Point up = 48

Point down = 52

Total number of trials = 100

Recall :

Experimental probability = number of outcomes / number of trials

1.)

P(Landing point up) = 48 / 100 = 0.48

2.)

P(Landing point down) = 52 / 100 = 0.52

3.)

The same result will not occur has the outcomes of trials aren't fixed.

4.) Yes, nearly the same result could occur on the second trial, as the number of possible outcubes are just 2 and the number if trials is high.

Jesse buys a necklace that is on sale for 25% off the original price is 119.50 if tax is 7% what is the total price that Jesse w
trapecia [35]

Answer:

$95.89875

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the necklace is 119.5. And we are subtracting 25% from this. 119.5 - 25% = 119.5 - 1/4 since 25% is 25/100 which is also 1/4.

So without tax, the price of the necklace is 119.5 - 29.875 which is 89.625.

The tax is 7%. So we should add 89.625 to 7%. This is complicated, but it should result in 95.89875.

If we round this to the nearest cent, it should be <em>$95.9</em>.
