Answer:

(m−5)(2m−2)

=(m+−5)(2m+−2)

=(m)(2m)+(m)(−2)+(−5)(2m)+(−5)(−2)

=2m2−2m−10m+10

=2m2−12m+10

The cost of a daily newspaper varies from city to city. however, the variation among prices remains steady with a standard devia

Tanya [424]

First, we establish our hypothesis:

Null hypothesis H0: μ = $1.00

Alternative hypothesis Ha: μ ≠ $1.00

Let’s say X = the sample average cost of a daily newspaper = 0.96

u = population mean cost = 1.00

S = sample standard deviation = 0.18

Calculating for z value:

z = (X – u) / S

z = (0.96 – 1) / 0.18

z = – 0.222

From the standard distribution table at this z value, p-value = 0.4129

Since alpha = 0.01, the decision therefore is:

Do not reject the null hypothesis because the p-value is greater than 0.01. There is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean cost of newspapers is $1.

Graph and label the image of the figure below after a dilation by a factor of 1/2.

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

M' (1.5, -1), F' (2, -1), L' (0.5 -2.5), W' (2.5, -2.5)

see graph below

Explanation:

Given:

The image of a quadrilateral on a coordinate plane

To find:

The coordinates of the new image after dilation of 1/2 have been applied to the original image.

Then graph the coordinates

First, we need to state the coordinates of the original image:

M = (3, -2)

F = (4, -2)

L = (1, -5)

W = (5, -5)

Next, we will apply a scale factor of 1/2:

$\begin{gathered} Dilation\text{ rule:} \\ (x,\text{ y\rparen}\rightarrow(kx,\text{ ky\rparen} \\ where\text{ k = scale factor} \\ \\ scale\text{ factor = 1/2} \\ M^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(3),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-2)) \\ M^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{3}{2},\text{ -1\rparen} \\ \\ F\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(4),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-2)) \\ F^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen2, -1\rparen} \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} L\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(1),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-5)) \\ L^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2},\text{ }\frac{-5}{2}) \\ \\ W\text{ = \lparen}\frac{1}{2}(5),\text{ }\frac{1}{2}(-5)) \\ W^{\prime}\text{ = \lparen}\frac{5}{2},\text{ }\frac{-5}{2}) \end{gathered}$

The new coordinates:

M' (3/2, -1), F' (2, -1), L' (1/2, -5/2), W' (5/2, -5/2)

M' (1.5, -1), F' (2, -1), L' (0.5 -2.5), W' (2.5, -2.5)

Plotting the coordinates:

Find the value of b if side a measures 8.7 cm?

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The correct equation is 8.7 + b = 54.6

Step-by-step explanation:

because it is given that measure of side a is 8.7cm, in all other equations the values of a is different.
