Just multiply the with and the length by four (considering the scale factor is 4)
3x4=12 and 7x4=28

Why is ac smaller than ad if they both look very close

kakasveta [241]

Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

We start out by observing that Triangles MKR & ACD are similar or proportional

$\begin{gathered} MK=21;AC=\text{?} \\ MR=24;AD=28\frac{4}{5} \\ KR=CD=\text{?} \end{gathered}$

We will solve for the missing side by using the similar triangle theorem. This is shown below:~

$\begin{gathered} \Delta MKR\approx\Delta ACD \\ \frac{MK}{AC}=\frac{MR}{AD} \\ \frac{21}{AC}=\frac{24}{28\frac{4}{5}} \\ \text{Cross multiply, we have:} \\ 24\cdot AC=28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21 \\ AC=\frac{28\frac{4}{5}\cdot21}{24}=25\frac{1}{5} \\ AC=25\frac{1}{5} \end{gathered}$

What is the standard deviation of the following data set?

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

D. 14.32

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for standard deviation is:

$SD = \sqrt{\frac{\sum | x-\mu|^2}{N}}$

The mean μ is 33.

The (x minus μ) squared are 361, 49, 49, 361 respectively.

So that the SD = $\sqrt{\frac{820}{4}} \approx 14.31782...$
