DEF is a dilation image of ABC. What is the scale factor?

Mathematics
1 answer:
horsena [70]3 years ago

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔDEF is a dilation image of ΔABC.

Rule for the dilation,

Scale factor = \frac{\text{Length of one side of the image triangle}}{\text{Length of one side of the original triangle}}

                    = \frac{DE}{AB}

                    = \frac{4}{8}

                    = \frac{1}{2}

Therefore, scale factor by which ΔABC is dilated is \frac{1}{2}.

Option (2) will be the correct option.

Someone help me plz!!

Answer: x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these are supplementary angles, we know that if we add them together we would get 180 deg. so....

(7x-10)+ (6x-5)=180

Kay so now we can combine like terms.

13x-15=180

Now we can add 15 to both sides.

13x=195

Finally Divide 13 on both sides.

X would then now equal 15.

The total purchase price of the watch is: $9,300

$8,000 + (0.06 × $8,000) + (0.10 × 8,000) + $20

$8,000 + $480 + $800 + $20

One leg of a right triangle has a length of 5m. The other sides have lengths that are consecutive integers. Find these lengths.
pickupchik [31]

The lengths of the other two sides of the right triangle are 12 and 13

<h3>Pythagorean theorem </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the lengths of the other sides of the triangle

From the given information,

The other sides have lengths that are consecutive integers

Thus,

If the length of the other side is x

Then,

The hypotenuse will be x + 1

By the <em>Pythagorean theorem</em>, we can write that

(x+1)² = x² + 5²

(x+1)(x+1) = x² + 25

x² + x + x + 1 = x² + 25

x² - x² + x + x = 25 - 1

2x = 24

x = 24/2

x = 12

∴ The other leg of the right triangle is 12

Hypotenuse = x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

Hence, the lengths of the other two sides are 12 and 13

If each data is increased by a constant K then find it's mean ?? answer fast pleaseeeeeeeeeee​
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The mean is also increased by the constant k.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that we have the set of N elements

{x₁, x₂, x₃, ..., xₙ}

The mean of this set is:

M = (x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + ... + xₙ)/N

Now if we increase each element of our set by a constant K, then our new set is:

{ (x₁ + k), (x₂ + k), ..., (xₙ + k)}

The mean of this set is:

M' = ( (x₁ + k) + (x₂ + k) + ... + (xₙ + k))/N

M' = (x₁ + x₂ + ... + xₙ + N*k)/N

We can rewrite this as:

M' = (x₁ + x₂ + ... + xₙ)/N + (k*N)/N

and  (x₁ + x₂ + ... + xₙ)/N was the original mean, then:

M' = M + (k*N)/N

M' = M + k

Then if we increase all the elements by a constant k, the mean is also increased by the same constant k.
