Answer:

Answer ::+-6

Step-by-step explanation:

x:3=12:x

or, x/3 = 12/x

Doing cross multiplication,

x^2=36

Putting sqare root on both sides,

x= sqrt. 36

x= +- 6

Therefore x=+-6.

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Express the ratio in fractional form, that is

$\frac{x}{3}$ = $\frac{12}{x}$ ( cross- multiply )

x² = 36 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{36}$ = ± 6

Thus x = 6 is the positive value

Make 2 sets of data 8 numbers each between 1 and 25. Then calculate the median and IQR for each data set.

vlada-n [284]

The median of the data set will be 15.5. The data set is in between the 1 to 25.

<h3>What is median?</h3>

Median is such a number for the arranged data set in ascending or descending order, such that to its left and to its right belong the same number of observations.

The data set between the number is;

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25

The value of IQR for data set is;

First Quartile Q1 = 6.5

Second Quartile Q2 = 13

Third Quartile Q3 =19.5

The median of the data set is;

$\rm Median= \frac{15+16}{2} \\\\ Median= 15.5$

Hence, the median of the data set will be 15.5.

Hi I really need help it's confusing 8th grade math is hard can u please tell me what to put in the boxes please

Decimal: It’s easier to work with the numbers You can add, subtract, multiply and divide in your head (for the most part) instead of having to find common denominators and things like that.

Fraction: You can put repeating values in fraction form to represent them in a simpler way, as opposed to having to put the line over the repeating digits if it were in decimal form.

Power: Powers are just condensed forms of repeated multiplication, so they save space/time and you can use certain properties with some powers that allow you to multiply and divide them instantly.

Scientific notation: This is good when you’re dealing with numbers that have a lot of digits/place value. That can become confusing, so scientific notation is a way we can represent these numbers clearly and more condensed (takes less space/time).

Find a formula for the transformation of reflection across the line l with equation y = -x.

Julli [10]

Answer:

The rule or formula for the transformation of reflection across the line l with equation y = -x will be:

P(x, y) ⇒ P'(-y, -x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the point

$P(x, y)$

If we reflect a point $P(x, y)$ across the line $l$ with equation $y = -x$ , the coordinates of the point P flips their places and the sign of the coordinates reverses.

Thus, the rule or formula for the transformation of reflection across the line l with equation y = -x will be:

P(x, y) ⇒ P'(-y, -x)

For example, if we reflect a point, let suppose A(1, 3), across the line $l$ with equation $y = -x$ , the coordinates of point A flips their places and the sign of the coordinates reverses.

Hence,

A(1, 3) ⇒ A'(-3, -1)

<h3>What is a Quadrilateral ?</h3>

A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides , four angles and four vertices.

It is given in the question that

Quadrilateral BGTS has vertices B (-3, 4), G (-1, 3), T (-1, 1), and S (-4, 2).

A graph has to be drawn of

its image after a translation along (5,0) and a reflection in the x-axis.

The coordinates after translation and reflection is is B (8, -4), G (6, -3), T (6, -1), and S (7, -2).
