Answer:

k=\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A dilation is a non rigid transformation that produce similar figures

If two lines are similar, then the lines are parallel

Lines parallel have the same slope

so

we have

Line A

2y=x+8

isolate the variable y

y=0.5x+4 ----> equation A

The slope of the line A is m=0.5

The y-intercept of the line A is b=4

Line B

y-\frac{1}{2}x=2

isolate the variable y

y=\frac{1}{2}x+2 ----> equation B

The slope of the line B is m=0.5

The y-intercept of the line B is b=2

Remember that

The y-intercept of line A multiplied by the scale factor k must be equal to the y-intercept of line B

so

4k=2

solve for k

k=\frac{1}{2}

Use the Counting Principle to find the probability. Choosing the 7 winning lottery numbers when the numbers are chosen at random
frozen [14]

Answer:   120

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

Since the order of the numbers doesn't matter we can use the formula:

\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\quad \text{where n is the quantity of items and r is the quantity chosen}\\\\\text{In this problem, there are 10 numbers (n = 10) and 7 to be chosen (r = 7)}\\\\_{10}C_{7}=\dfrac{10!}{7!(10-7)!}\\\\.\qquad=\dfrac{10!}{7!3!}\\\\.\qquad=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{7!\times 3\times 2\times 1}\\\\.\qquad=10\times 3\times 4\\\\.\qquad=120
