Answer:
Looks like the scale factor is 1/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>(In this dilation, the green image is polygon ABCDE, and the red image is polygon A'B'C'D'E'. The red image is the resulting image after said dilation.)</em>
A scale factor greater than one enlarges an image, and a scale factor between zero and one shrinks an image, so that rules out options 2 (SF = -3) and 3 (SF = 3).
A negative scale factor would end up in an image opposite the center of enlargement, so that eliminates option 4 (SF = -1/3).
So that means that the scale factor is option 1 (SF = 1/3)!
There are 52 weeks in one year. If we divide 159 by 52 we get 3.05. Therefore, there would be an average of 3-4 murders per week.

The life of a semiconductor laser at a constant power is normally distributed with a mean of 7,000 hours and a standard deviation of 600 hours. If three lasers are used in a product and they are assumed to fail independently, the probability that all three are still operating after 7,000 hours is closest to? Assuming percentile = 95%
Answer:
0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming for 95%
z score for 95th percentile = 1.645
We find the Probability using z table.
P(z = 1.645) = P( x ≤ 7000)
= P(x<Z) = 0.95
After 7000 hours = P > 7000
= 1 - P(x < 7000)
= 1 - 0.95
= 0.05
If three lasers are used in a product and they are assumed to fail independently, the probability that all three are still operating after 7,000 hours is calculated as:
(P > 7000)³
(0.05)³ = 0.125
