PLZ HELP SCALE FACTOR TRIANGLE A. 10.5 cm B. 31.5 cm C. 63 cm D. 189 cm

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anarel [89]3 years ago
3 0

If two similar triangles have sides in the ratio a : b, then their areas are in the ratio a² : b².

We have the ratio:

54:18=\dfrac{54}{18}=3:1

Area of the smaler triangle = x

Area of the larger triangle = 567 cm²

Therefore we have the equation:

567:x=3^2:1^2\\\\\dfrac{567}{x}=\dfrac{9}{1}\qquad|\text{cross multiply}\\\\9x=567\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\\x=63

<h3>Answer: C. 63 cm²</h3>

Is trapezoid ABDC the result of a dilation of trapezoid MNPQ by a scale factor of ? Why or why not?
Nady [450]

Answer:

No, because AB is 2/5 the length MN but CD is 1/3 the length QP.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the corresponding sides, the length of AB is 4.  The length of MN is 10.  This makes their ratio 4/10 = 2/5.

The length of CD is 2.  The length of QP is 6.  this makes their ratio 2/6 = 1/3.

The ratios of the sides are not the same, so the figure is not proportional and is therefore not a dilation.

How many solutions?<br> 1<br> 2<br> 3<br> 0
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The number of solutions of the system is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

When solving a system of equations by graphing, the solution of the system is equal to the intersection point both graphs.

In this problem the graphs do not intersect

therefore

The number of solutions of the system is 0

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Jill

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 250 is closer to 0 (which is the sea level) on the number line compared to 275, Jill is closer to sea level.

4. The distribution of blood cholesterol level in the population of young men aged 20 to 34 years is close to Normal, with mean
Pie

Answer:

a) 38.59% probability that a young man (aged 20 to 34) has a cholesterol level greater than 200 milligrams per deciliter.

b) By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean of the distribution of the sample mean would be 188 milligrams per deciliter

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 188, \sigma = 41

a. Find the probability that a young man (aged 20 to 34) has a cholesterol level greater than 200 milligrams per deciliter.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 200. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{200 - 188}{41}

Z = 0.29

Z = 0.29 has a pvalue of 0.6141

1 - 0.6141 = 0.3859

38.59% probability that a young man (aged 20 to 34) has a cholesterol level greater than 200 milligrams per deciliter.

b. Suppose you measure the cholesterol level of 100 young men chosen at random and calculate the sample mean. If you did this many times, i. what would be the mean of the distribution of the sample mean

By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean of the distribution of the sample mean would be 188 milligrams per deciliter
