Answer:

A. 27.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a data set. We are asked to find first quartile of our given data set.

24, 26, 26, 27, 28, 31, 33, 35, 37, 38, 40, 42, 43, 46, 48, 55, 56.

We can see that our given data set is in ascending form and it has 17 data points.

The median of the data set is 9th data point that is 37. The first quartile will be median of lower half.

The 1st quartile will be average of 4th and 5th data point that is:

$Q_1=\frac{27+28}{2}$

$Q_1=\frac{55}{2}$

$Q_1=27.5$

Therefore, the first quartile of the given data set is 27.5 and option A is the correct choice.

Triangle WXY has coordinates W(1, 4), X(1, 1), and Y(4, 1). Which of the following sets of points represents a dilation of trian

Dmitrij [34]

The answer is the second option, option B, which is: B. W'(2,8), X'(2,2), Y'(8,2)
 The explanation is shown below:
You have the Triangle WXY has coordinates W(1,4), X(1,1), and Y(4,1) and the Triangle of the option B has coordinates W'(2,8), X'(2,2), Y'(8,2). As you can notice, the coordinates of the new triangle are the result of multiply the coordinates of the original triangle by a scale of factor of 2. Therefore, in other words, the Triangle WXY was dilated with a scale of factor of 2.

Answer: ${\boxed{h(x+4)=\frac{9+3x}{8+x}}}$

Concept:

In a function f(x), it represents a function in terms of x or for x. Therefore, to find the values in the function, substitute values within the parenthesis to solve.

Solve:

Given information

$h(x)=\frac{-3+3x}{4+x}$
