Refer to the edited figure.

Triangles ABC and A'B'C' are similar because of AAA.
Also,
$\frac{AB}{A'B'}= \frac{15}{5}=3 \\\\ \frac{AC}{A'C'}= \frac{12}{4}=3$

Therefore
ΔA'B'C' is 1/3 the size of ΔABC.
This means that the scale factor from ΔABC to ΔA'B'C' is a 3-factor reduction.

Answer: reduction; one-third.
The dilation is a reduction.
The scale factor of the dilation is one-third.

Answer:

1920π

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find the volume of the statue in terms of pi.

Volume of cylinder formula:

V=πr²h

V=π4²15

V=π16×15

V=240π

Then, you need to find the mass of the statue.

Mass:

Mass= density × volume

Mass=20×240π

Mass=4800π

Now, you need to find the volume. Since the sand has to weigh the same as the statue, the mass is going to stay the same. To find the volume you need to do:

V=mass of sand/density

V=4800π/2.5

That gives you your answer:

1920π

Note: I had to do the exact same problem on Khan Academy. This is right.

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

a. 7/45

b. 1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

15 total balls

a. Selecting 1 Blue ball and 1 Green ball

3/15 * 7/15 = 21/225 = 7/45

b. Selecting 1 Red ball and 1 blue ball

5/15 * 3/15 = 15/225 = 1/15

Thirty percent of all customers who enter a department store will make a purchase. Suppose that 6 customers enter the store and

torisob [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use binomial distribution, because we are interested in find the total number of successes in a sequence of n independent experiments.

In probability, a binomial distribution is used in a Bernoulli process. That is, a sequence of experiments of n independent trials, each asking a dichotomous question, that means it only has two answers. One answer is a success (probability: p) and the other is a failure (probability: 1-p). In this case, every customer who enters in the store is the experiment. If they make a purchase is a success event, taking into account that every purchase decision has to be independent.

$P(X=x) = C(n,x)p^{x} (1-p)^{n-x}$

x= total number of success

n= total number of experiments

p=probability of success on an indivual trial

$C(n,x) = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

a) x= 5 ------> customers that make a purchase

n= 6 ------> total customers

p=0.3

$p(X=5)= C(6,5)(0.3)^{5} (1-0.3)^{6-5} \\p(X=5)=0.102$

b) At least 3 customers make a purchase. x ≥ 3

$P(X\geq 3)=1-P (X=0)-P(X=1)-P(X=2)\\P(X\geq 3)=1-(C(6,0)(0.3^{0})(0.7)^{6}) - (C(6,1)(0.3^{1})(0.7)^{5}) - (C(6,2)(0.3^{2})(0.7)^{4})\\ P(X\geq 3) = 1-0.11765-0.30253-0.32414\\P(X\geq3)= 0.2557$

c) At most 2 customers make a purchase. x ≤ 2

$P(X\leq2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)\\P(X\leq2) = (C(6,0)(0.3^{0})(0.7)^{6}) + (C(6,1)(0.3^{1})(0.7)^{5}) + (C(6,2)(0.3^{2})(0.7)^{4})\\P(X\leq2) = 0.11765-0.30253-0.32414\\P(X\leq2)=0.7443$

d)At least 1 customer makes a purchase. x ≥ 1

$P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\P(X\geq 1)= 1-C(0,6)(0.3)^{0}(0.7)^{6} \\P(X\geq 1)= 1-0.11765 = 0.8824$

e)They must be kind to customers, always willing to help and give information about products clearly and honestly.

Have enough inventory and offer promotions for the purchase of more than one product

Have an agile payment system that avoids rows and delays in purchases.
