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.

If order matters, then there are 12 ways to do this

If order does not matter, then there are 6 ways to do this

===========================================

We have 4 choices for the first slot and 3 choices for the next (we can't reuse a letter) so that's where 4*3 = 12 comes from

If order doesn't matter, then something like AB is the same as BA. So we are doubly counting each possible combo. To fix this, we divide by 2: 12/2 = 6

To be more formal, you can use nPr and nCr to get 12 and 6 respectively (use n = 4 and r = 2)

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

A. a + c ≥ 70; 15a + 4c ≤ 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given data:</u>

A community action committee is planning a block party

The party will be successful if at least 70 adults (a) and children (c) attend

Their budget for the party is $1,000

The cost for each adult will be $15

And the cost for each child will be $4

<u>Solution:</u>

<u />

At least 70 adults and children attend.

So the inequality here is a + c ≥ 70

The budget for the party is $1,000.

So the cost for all adults plus the cost for all children cannot exceed $1,000

And hence the inequality here is; 15a + 4c ≤ 1,000
