Answer:

The answer is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio between two areas is:

R_{area}=A(G)/A(F)=1/9\\

If the ratio between ares 1/9, the ratio between polygons will be square root of 1/9. Then;

R_{pol}=\sqrt{R_{area}} =\sqrt{1/9} =1/3

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of Polygon GGG is \dfrac19  

9

​  start fraction, 1, divided by, 9, end fraction the area of Polygon FFF.

Each side of Polygon FFF was multiplied by a certain value, known as the scale factor , to result in an area that is \dfrac19

​  start fraction, 1, divided by, 9, end fraction the area of Polygon FFF.

[Show me an example of how scale factor affects area]

\dfrac1{10}  

start fraction, 1, divided by, 10, end fraction

 

 

\begin{aligned} A &= \left(l\times\dfrac1{10}\right)\times\left(w\times\dfrac1{10}\right) \\ \\ A&= l\times w\times\dfrac1{10}\times\dfrac1{10} \\ \\ A&= lw \times \left(\dfrac1{10}\right)^2\end{aligned}

What is 12/24, 3/30, 10/8, 34/20, and 14/8 in lowest term and in percent form
kirza4 [7]
To find a fraction's lowest term, just simplify them and divide to find the decimal form.
12/24 = 1/2, 0.5
3/30 = 1/10, 0.1
10/8 = 5/4, 1.25
34/20 = 17/10, 1.7
14/8 = 7/4, 1.75

If A = (0, 0) and B = (6, 3) what is the length of overline AB ?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

A= (0,0) and B = (6,3)

We can find the length AB with the following formula:

d = \sqrt{(x_B -x_A)^2 +(y_B -y_A)^2}

And replacing we got:

d = \sqrt{(6-0)^2 +(3-0)^2} = \sqrt{45}= 3\sqrt{5}

So then the length AB would be 3\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following two points:

A= (0,0) and B = (6,3)

We can find the length AB with the following formula:

d = \sqrt{(x_B -x_A)^2 +(y_B -y_A)^2}

And replacing we got:

d = \sqrt{(6-0)^2 +(3-0)^2} = \sqrt{45}= 3\sqrt{5}

So then the length AB would be 3\sqrt{5}

ira [324]

Answer:

P(X > 5) = 0.1164 to 4 d.p.

The parameters are defined in the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial distribution problem

Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = number of potential hires = 10

x = Number of successes required = number of potential hires that have prior call centre experience = more than half; that is, x > 5

p = probability of success = probability that any potential hire will have experience = (11/30) = 0.367

q = probability of failure = probability that any potential hire will NOT have experience = 1 - p = 1 - 0.367 = 0.633

P(X > 5) = P(X=6) + P(X=7) + P(X=8) + P(X=9) + P(X=10)

Inserting the parameters and computing the probabilities for each of those values of X,

P(X > 5) = 0.11641775484 = 0.1164 to 4 d.p.

Hope this Helps!!!
