Please help!!!!!!!!!!

Can anyone solve this for me?? I will give brainliest and 5 stars and thanks

Answer:

3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When we enlarge or shrink an object, we perform a dilation. A dilation preserves the relationship between sides and the exact angle measure. This means the original and the enlargement are proportional and any missing lengths can be found through a proportion.

A proportion is an equation where two ratios or fractions are equal. The ratios or fractions compare like quantities. For example, we will compare height over length of the original rectangle to an equal ratio of height to length of the enlargement. Since we do not know height of the enlargement, we will use a variable to write:

$\frac{2}{9} =\frac{h}{13.5}$

I can now cross-multiply by multiplying numerator and denominator from each ratio.

$9h=2(23.5)\\19h=27$

I now solve for h by dividing by 9.

$\frac{9h}{9} =\frac{27}{9} \\h= 3$

The new height is 3 cm.

According to data released by FiveThirty Eight (data drawn on Monday, August 17th, 2020), Donald Trump wins an Electoral College

sineoko [7]

Answer:

a) P = 0.274925

b) required confidence interval = (0.2705589, 0.2793344)

c) FALSE

d) FALSE

e) TRUE

f) There is still probability that he would win. And it would be highly unusual if he wins assuming that the true population proportion is 0.274925.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

PROBABILITY

since total number of simulations is 40,000 and and number of times Donald Trump wins an Electoral College majority in the 2020 US Presidential Election is 10,997

so the required Probability will be 10,997 divided by 40,000

P = 10997 / 40000 = 0.274925

b)

To get 95% confidence interval for the parameter in question a

(using R)

>prop.test(10997,40000)

OUTPUT

1 - Sample proportion test with continuity correction

data: 10997 out of 40000, null probability 0.5

x-squared = 8104.5, df = 1, p-value < 2.23-16

alternative hypothesis : true p ≠ 0.5

0.2705589 0.2793344

sample estimate

p

0.274925

∴ required confidence interval = (0.2705589, 0.2793344)

c)

FALSE

This is a wrong interpretation of a confidence interval. It indicates that there is 95% chance that the confidence interval you calculated contains the true proportion. This is because when you perform several times, 95% of those intervals would contain the true proportion but as the confidence intervals will vary so you can't say that the true proportion is in any interval with 95% probability.

d)

FALSE

Once again, this is a wrong interpretation of a confidence interval. The confidence interval tells us about the population parameter and not the sample statistic.

e)

TRUE

This is a correct interpretation of a confidence interval. It indicates that if we perform sampling with same sample size (40000) several times and calculate the 95% confidence interval of population proportion for each of them, then 95% of these confidence interval should contain the population parameter.

f)

The simulation results obtained doesn't always comply with the true population. Also, result of one simulation can't be taken for granted. We need several simulations to come to a conclusion. So, we can never ever guarantee based on a simulation result to say that Donald Trump 'Won't' or 'Shouldn't' win.

There is still probability that he would win. And it would be highly unusual if he wins assuming that the true population proportion is 0.274925.

How do i explain this problem<br> -5 + (+4) =

RSB [31]

Answer:

this question is essentially -5 + 4

You could say:

negative 5 plus 4

Just in case you need it, the answer to this problem is -1

May I have brainliest please? :)

For the square find coordinates for B without using any new variables

damaskus [11]

The geometric term described as an infinite set of points that has length but not width is called a line. It has a negligible with and depth. In geometry, a line located in the plane is defined as the set of points whose coordinates satisfy a given linear equation. A line segment however is a line connected by two dots far apart from each other and then connected. For example is the equation y=mx+b. This is a slope intercept form which is a linear equation.

The physical plant at the main campus of a large state university recieves daily requests to replace florecent lightbulbs. The d

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

68-95-99.7 rule

68% of all values lie within the 1 standard deviation from mean $(\mu-\sigma,\mu+\sigma)$

95% of all values lie within the 1 standard deviation from mean $(\mu-1\sigma,\mu+1\sigma)$

99.7% of all values lie within the 1 standard deviation from mean $(\mu-3\sigma,\mu+3\sigma)$

The distribution of the number of daily requests is bell-shaped and has a mean of 55 and a standard deviation of 4.

$\mu = 55\\\sigma = 4$

68% of all values lie within the 1 standard deviation from mean $(\mu-\sigma,\mu+\sigma)$ = $(55-4,55+4)$ = $(51,59)$

95% of all values lie within the 2 standard deviation from mean $(\mu-1\sigma,\mu+1\sigma)$ = $(55-2(4),55+2(4))$ = $(47,63)$

99.7% of all values lie within the 3 standard deviation from mean $(\mu-3\sigma,\mu+3\sigma)$ = $(55-3(4),55+3(4))$ = $(43,67)$

Refer the attached figure

P(43<x<55)=2.5%+13.5%+34%=50%

Hence The approximate percentage of light bulb replacement requests numbering between 43 and 55 is 50%
