A triangle is dilated with the center of dilation at point U. Point E is a vertex of the triangle and point E ′ E' is the corres

Answer: scale\ factor=5

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, a Dilation is a transformation in which the image has the same shape as the pre-image but  size changes.

The center of dilation is a fixed point in the plane, and the scale factor is the ratio of the corresponding sides of the image to the pre-image.

Based on the information provided in the exercise, you know that:

UE = 2\ cm\\\\U'E'=10\ cm

Thererefore, you can determine that the scale factor is:

scale\ factor=\frac{10\ cm}{2\ cm}\\\\scale\ factor=5

Back to the cards! In poker, a flush is when all five cards are the same suit. Find the probability of being dealt a flush (when
12345 [234]
<span> a) 13 we know that the number of clubs in the deck/52 that the total number of cards in the deck =0 .25= 25%.
b) 12 the remaining number of clubs in the deck/51 the remaining number of cards in the deck = 0.235= 23.5%.
c) 11 same as above/50 the same as above = 0.22= 22%
d) 10/49 = 20.4%
e) 9/48 = 18.75%
f) The combinations that can be made with certain characteristics are limited to say: ace of clubs to 12 other clubs, two of clubs to 12 other clubs, three of clubs to 12 other clubs, etc. As the desired outcome is reached, the probable outcome percentages must be multiplied together to accommodate all combinations. the probability is .049%.
g) probability of dealt a flush is 13*12*11*10*9*4/52*51*50*49*48 = 617,760/311,875,200 = 0.00198079232, or 0.2% when round up. This is any of the 13 cards needed in a particular suit, times any of the remaining 12, times any of the remaining 11 after that, and so on multiplied by 4 since there are four suits in which this can occur. This is divided by the number of cards in the deck 52 times the remaining cards when that's drawn, and so on and so forth. </span>

Solve the formula 18x + 3y = 15 for y. ​
Sauron [17]

Answer:

18x + 3y = 15 \\ 3y = 15 - 18x \\  \\ y =  \frac{15 - 18x}{3}  \\  \\  \\ y =  \frac{15}{3}  -  \frac{18x}{3}  \\  \\ y = 5 - 6x

I hope I helped you^_^

A real number between 13 squared and 14 squared
yuradex [85]

If we find the square root of 13 ans 14 we get

sqrt(13) = 3.60555 <span>
sqrt(14) = 3.74166</span>

All Real numbers can be rational number and irrational number.

<span>We can write 3.7 as 37/10, which is the easy rational number and an irrational number within the range is sqrt (27/2)</span>

<span>Real number system is used in mathematics and statistics.</span>

What is the fourth term of the expansion of the binomial (2x+5)^5
larisa [96]
For a binomial expansion with exponent 5, the general equation is as follows
(x + y)⁵ = x⁵ + 5x⁴y + 10x³y² + 10x²y³ + 5xy⁴ + y⁵


when expanded from left to right the powers of x decrease from 5 to 0 and powers of y increase from 0 to 5

substitute x =2x and y = 5

(2x + 5)⁵ = (2x)⁵ + 5(2x)⁴5 + 10(2x)³5² + 10(2x)²5³ + 5(2x)5⁴ + 5⁵

              <span>= 32x⁵ + 400x⁴ + 2000x³ + 5000x² + 6250x + 3125
</span>we use the pascals triangle to find the coefficient

we can use the binomial theorem to find the 4th term as well
exponent - 5
term - 4
5!/ (5-4)!4! * (2x)⁴5⁵⁻⁴
=120/24 *16x⁴*5
=400x⁴
