<h2>Answer:</h2>

The transformation which do not describe a rigid motion transformation is:

Option: C

C. dilating a figure by a scale factor of 1/4

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Rigid motion transformation is a transformation in which the shape and size of the figure is preserved i.e. it remains the same.

Translating a figure 5 units right.

We know that in the translation transformation the shape and size of the figure remains the same only the location of points are changed.

Rotating a figure 90 degrees.

In rotation the shape and size is preserved.

Hence it is a rigid transformation.

dilating a figure by a scale factor of 1/4

This is not a rigid transformation because the size of the figure is changed.

since the scale factor is less than 1.

Hence, the transformation is a reduction of the original figure.

reflecting a figure across the x-axis.

The reflection is also a rigid transformation.

since it preserves the shape and size of the object.

The formula for finding the volume of a nose cone of an aircraft is V = (pi * d ^ 2 * h)/6 where d is the diameter of the base o

adell [148]

Answer:

$h=\frac{6V}{\pi d^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$V=\frac{\pi d^2h}{6}$

Solve for h

That means ----> isolate the variable h

step 1

Multiply by 6 both sides

$6V=\pi d^2h$

step 2

Divide by $\pi d^2$ both sides

$h=\frac{6V}{\pi d^2}$

"if the standard deviation of a group of 20 scores is 15, what is the variance?"

DerKrebs [107]

We have been given that the standard deviation of a group of 20 scores is 15 and we are asked to find variance.

Since we know variance is square of standard deviation. In order to find out the variance of the given data we have to take the square of 15.

$\text{ Variance}=\sigma^{2}\\
=15^{2}=225$

Therefore, our variance is 225.

(y x 1) + 2 and y + 2, is it equivalent or non equivalent?

enot [183]

Given:

The two expressions are

$(y\times 1)+2$

$y+2$

To find:

Whether the given expression are equivalent or non-equivalent.

Solution:

If two expressions are looking different but they are equal after simplification, then they are called equivalent expressions.

The first expression is

$(y\times 1)+2=y+2$

The first expression is equal to the second expression after the simplification.

Therefore, the given expressions are equivalent.
