A scale factor is usually a decimal which scales, or multiplies, some quantity. In the equation y = Cx, C is the scale factor for x. C is also the coefficient of x, and may be called the constant of proportionality of y to x.

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it's from a big square to a smaller square, the smaller number will be at the top. Also, use the same side to find the scale factor, but since this is a square and all sides of a square are equal, it doesn't matter but in other shapes it does so practice i guess:

Left side of big square: 5

Left side of small square: 2

So scale is 2/5

To confirm:

5 · 2/5 = 10/5 = 2, we're right

Answer:

First blank= -1

Second blank= 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in x to the equation. 1/7 x (-7)= -7/7=-1

2=1/7(x) to divide fractions you multiply by the reciprocal

2 x 7/1= 1/7× 7/1

14/1=14

Given the function f(x) = −3x3 + 9x2 − 2x + 3, what part of the function indicates that the left end starts at the top of the gr

shutvik [7]

Answer: The correct option is, The coefficient of the first term.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is,

$f(x)=-3x^3+9x^2-2x+3$

End behavior of the polynomial function : It is defined as the graph of f(x) as x approaches $+\infty$ and $-\infty$ .

The end behavior of the graph depends on the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial.

As, the degree of the polynomial is '3'. So, the leading coefficient will determine the structure of the graph.

Therefore, the coefficient of the first term will indicate that the left end starts at the top of the graph.

The graph is also shown below.

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

lowest score a college graduate must earn to qualify for a responsible position is 578

correct option is D. 578

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

mean = 500

standard deviation = 50

distribution = 6 %

to find out

What is the lowest score a college graduate must earn to qualify for a responsible position

solution

we know that here Probability P that is express as

P ( Z > x ) = 100% - 6% .....................1

so with the help of normal table

here value of Z is = 1.55 from cumulative probability 0.94

so by z score formula here x will be

x = z × standard deviation + mean ................2

so put here value

x = 1.55 × 50 + 500

x = 577.7387 ~ 578

so lowest score a college graduate must earn to qualify for a responsible position is 578
