Answer:

Slope-Intercept Form of a Line (y = mx + b)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept is the most “popular” form of a straight line. Many students find this useful because of its simplicity. One can easily describe the characteristics of the straight line even without seeing its graph because the slope and y-intercept can easily be identified or read off from this form.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Mr. Molesky observes a group of monkeys for 24 hours to learn about their behavior. He records how long they slept (in hours), how many bananas they ate, gender, age (in years), and the specific breed of monkey.

(a) What are the individuals in this data set?

(b) Identify the variables that were recorded, and indicate whether each one is categorical or quantitative?

Solution:

(a)

The term "individuals", in statistics, implies or denotes the objects or people included in a statistical study.

In this case it is provided that Mr. Molesky observes a group of monkeys for 24 hours to learn about their behavior.

So, the "individuals" in this data set are the monkeys.

(b)

Categorical variables belong to a certain category or label values. Such as gender of a person, state from which a person is from, color of the marble and so on.

Quantitative variables are those variables that assume numerical values and represent some sort of measurement. Such as height, weight, annual income of the people working at the same place and so on.

In this case the variables are:

Number of bananas the monkeys ate - Quantitative variable

Gender - Categorical variable

Age (in years) - Quantitative variable

Specific breed of monkey - Categorical variable

1. Write a rule that will take the triangle to a congruent triangle. Write your rule as (x,y)

olga nikolaevna [1]

Transforming a shape involves changing the size and/or the location of the shape.

The rule that will take the triangle to a congruent triangle is $(x,y) \to (x,-y)$
The rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is similar is $(x,y) \to (0.5x,0.5y)$ .
The rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is not similar or congruent is $(x,y) \to (0.5x,2y)$ .

<h3>Rigid transformation</h3>

When a shape is transformed by a rigid transformation, then the image of the shape will be congruent to the original shape.

An example of a rigid transformation is a reflection over the x-axis; and the rule is:

$(x,y) \to (x,-y)$

So, a rule that will take the triangle to a congruent triangle is $(x,y) \to (x,-y)$

<h3>Nonrigid transformation</h3>

When a shape is transformed by a nonrigid transformation, then the image of the shape will not be congruent to the original shape, however the original shape and the transformed shape would be similar

An example of a nonrigid transformation is a dilation by a scale factor od 0.5; and the rule is:

$(x,y) \to (0.5x,0.5y)$

So, a rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is similar is $(x,y) \to (0.5x,0.5y)$

However, if the x and y coordinates of the shape are dilated by different scale factors, then the resulting shape would neither be similar nor be congruent to the original shape.

A rule that will take the triangle to a figure that is not similar or congruent is $(x,y) \to (0.5x,2y)$ .
