Answer:

They are similar by the definition of similarity in terms of a dilation

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertices of triangle ΔABC are;

A(1, 5), B(3, 9), and C(5, 3)

The vertices of triangle ΔDEF are;

D(-3, 3), E(-2, 5), and F(-1, 2)

Therefore, we get;

The length of segment, \overline{AB} = √((9 - 5)² + (3 - 1)²) = 2·√5

The length of segment, \overline{BC} = √((9 - 3)² + (3 - 5)²) = 2·√10

The length of segment, \overline{AC} = √((5 - 3)² + (1 - 5)²) = 2·√5

The length of segment, \overline{DE} = √((5 - 3)² + (-2 - (-3))²) = √5

The length of segment, \overline{EF} = √((2 - 5)² + (-1 - (-2))²) = √10

The length of segment, \overline{DF} = √((2 - 3)² + (-1 - (-3))²) = √5

∴ \overline{AB}/\overline{DE} = 2·√5/(√5) = 2

\overline{BC}/\overline{EF} = 2·√10/(√10) = 2

\overline{AC}/\overline{DF} = 2·√5/(√5) = 2

The ratio of their corresponding sides are equal and therefore;

ΔABC and ΔDEF are similar by the definition of similarity in terms of dilation.

A set of average city temperatures in July are normally distributed
Archy [21]

Answer:

a) 59.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the mean temperature (μ) = 23.5°C and the standard deviation (σ) is 2 °C.

The z score is used in statistics to measure number of standard deviation by which the raw score is above or below the mean value, It is calculated using the equation:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

The average temperature of the City of Van Nuys is 23 degrees. The z score is

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{23-23,5}{2} =-0.25

P(x > 23) = P(z > -0.25) = 1 - P(z < -0.25) = 1 - 0.4013 = 0.5987 = 59.87%

Write the point-slope form of the line that passes through (6, 1) and is parallel to a line with a slope of -3. Include all of y
denpristay [2]

Answer:

(y - 1) = -3(x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point-slope form is

(y-y_{1}) = m (x-x_{1})

where y1 and x1 are 2 known points, and m is the slope of the line. So simply just fill in the blanks.

y is a variable so it is left alone (since there is no subscript).

y1 we are told is 1.

m we are told is -3 (the slope)

x is a variable so it is left alone (since there is no subscript).

x1 we are told is 6.

Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

y=2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form = y=mx+b

Where m=slope and b= y intercept

Reminder: the y intercept is where x=0

Looking at the graph, the y intercept is given as (0,-2)

There are also two points given (0, -2) and (2,2)

Reminder: to find the slope, divide the changes in y by the changes in x or substitute the numbers into this equation: y2-y1/x2-x1

2-(-2)/2-0=4/2

m=2

Now that we have the slope and y intercept, sbstitute into the equation y=mx+b:

y=2x-2
