Geometry help. If x is the image of U under a dilation centered at P, what is the scale factor.

Mathematics
1 answer:
kupik [55]3 years ago
4 0
A dilation pushes all points outwards, a factor of 2 would double the distance (in this case the point V)
every further step is then also an increase of the factor so
1->U (nothing changes)
2->V
3->W
4->X

so the correct answer is 4

Which answer is the approximate standard deviation of the data set?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:  A. 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given set = { 15, 19 3, 12, 17, 2, 2, 8}

Mean, \overline{ x} = \frac{15+19+3+12+17+2+2+8}{8} = \frac{78}{8} = 9.75

Number of elements, n = 8

\frac{\sum (|x-\overline{x}|)^2}{n}=42.4375

Thus, the standard deviation, \sigma =\frac{\sqrt{\sum(|x-\overline{x}|)^2} }{n}=\sqrt{\frac{339.5}{8}}=\sqrt{42.4375} = 6.51440711\approx 6.5

⇒ Option A is correct.

The perimeter of the square is equal to the perimeter of the triangle. What are the side lengths of each figure? square: ? units
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

<em>Square= 12 units</em>

<em>Triangle long sides= 19 units</em>

<em>Triamgle short side= 10 units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>It is a square, so all sides are the same.  That means 3x+3 equals 4x.  What number can be subsituted into x to equal 4?  If x is 3, then 3x+3 would be 3(3)+3.  It equals 12.  4 times 3 is also 12.  It works!  That also means the square's side is 12 units.</em>

<em>Square= 12 units</em>

<em />

<u><em>So, x=3</em></u>

<em />

<em>The triangle's longer sides are 7x-2.  Subsitute x in, which is 3, and you get 7(3)-2.  It equals 19.  The two longer sides of the triangle are the same length, so both are 19 units.</em>

<em>Triangle long sides= 19 units</em>

<em />

<em>The triangles shorter side is 2x+4.  Subsitute 3 in for x and you get 2(3)+4.  It equals 10, so the shorter side is 10 units.</em>

<em>Triangle short side= 10 units</em>

I need help please help
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

C. (x-2)^2=7

Step-by-step explanation:

What you have to do first is to get rid of the 3 in the x^2 so you will divide 3 by the whole thing to get x^2-4x=3.

You will then divide -4 by 2 and then square the answer to get 4.

You will then add the 4 into the end of the equation and to the 3 to get x^2-4x+4=7.

You will then make into a perfect square (x-2)^2=7 and that is your answer.
