A + b = 87
a = b - 11

b - 11 + b = 87
2b - 11 = 87
2b = 87 + 11
2b = 98
b = 98/2
b = 49 <===

a = b - 11
a = 49 - 11
a = 38 <===

Graph the image of the given triangle under a dilation with a scale factor of −2 and center of dilation (0, 0) .
Ronch [10]

To dilate an object means to enlarge or reduce the size of the object. The scale factor will determine how much larger or smaller the object will become.  If this factor is greater than 1, the object will increase in size. Otherwise, if the factor is less than 1, the object will decrease in size. So, the dilated object will be similar to its original. On the other hand, when corresponding points of the original and dilated figures are connected by straight lines, the center of dilation is the point where all the lines meet. In this problem, the center is (0, 0). When the center is the origin we need to multiply all the original coordinates of the object by the scale factor given. So:


A(-4, 1) \rightarrow A'=-2(-4,1) \rightarrow A'(8,-2) \\ \\ B(-3, -4) \rightarrow B'=-2(-3,-4) \rightarrow B'(6,8) \\ \\ C(-2, -2) \rightarrow C'=-2(-2,-2) \rightarrow C'(4,4)


So, the graph of the dilated triangle is shown in the Figure below

You are curious about the average number of yards Matthew Stafford throws for each game for the Detroit Lions. You randomly sele
Damm [24]

Answer:

The margin of error for this estimate is of 14.79 yards per game.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

T interval

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 20 - 1 = 19

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 19 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.093

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

You randomly select 20 games and see that the average yards per game is 273.7 with a standard deviation of 31.64 yards.

This means that n = 20, s = 31.61

What is the margin of error for this estimate?

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

M = 2.093\frac{31.61}{\sqrt{20}}

M = 14.79

The margin of error for this estimate is of 14.79 yards per game.
