What is the image of point (4, 5) after a counterclockwise rotation of 270º about the origin?

1 answer:

3 0

A counterclockwise rotation of 270º about the origin is equivalent to a clockwise rotation of 90º about the origin.

Given a point (4, 5), the x-value, i.e. 4 and the y-value, i.e. 5 are positive, hence the point is in the 1st quadrant of the xy-plane.

A clockwise rotation of 90º about the origin of a point in the first quadrant of the xy-plane will have its image in the fourth quadrant of the xy-plane. Thus the x-value of the image remains positive but the y-value of the image changes to negative.
Also the x-value and the y-value of the original figure is interchanged.
For example, given a point (a, b) in the first quadrant of the xy-plane, a counterclockwise rotation of 270º about the origin which is equivalent to a clockwise rotation of 90º about the origin will result in an image with the coordinate of (b, -a)

Therefore, a counterclockwise rotation of 270º about the origin of the point (4, 5) will result in an image with the coordinate of (5, -4) (option C)

Increasing numbers of businesses are offering child-care benefits for their workers. However, one union claims that more than 85

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The p value for this test is given $p_v = 0.1071$

Since the p value is higher than the significance level given of $\alpha=0.05$ we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. And we can say that the true proportion of firms in the manufacturing sector still do not offer any child-care benefits to their workersis is not significantly higher than 0.85 or 85% at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We define the proportion of interest as p who represent the true proportion of firms in the manufacturing sector still do not offer any child-care benefits to their workers

And we want to anaylze the following system of hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.85$
