The vertices of triangle WXY have coordinates W(3, 2), X(5, 5), and Y(7, 3). Triangle WXY was transformed to produce triangle Wꞌ

XꞌYꞌ, with coordinates Wꞌ(−2, −1) and Yꞌ(2, 0).
What are the coordinates of vertex Xꞌ?

We will do the analysis for each of the 3 vertices:
1st vertex:
W': We observe W'(x', y') and W(x, y)
x' = -2
x = 3
so, x plus some value will give the value of x'. We form the equation the following way:
x + Cx = x' (Cx will be the value used to MOVE the x to x' value)
When trying to solve the equation, we put values inside the equation:
3 + Cx = -2
The x coordinate is MOVED by some value Cx to become the x' coordinate (That is how we transform the triangle; by transforming each of its vertices by the same values for x and y coordinates, both respectfully).
Solving the equation, we get:
Cx = -2 - 3
Cx = -5.
The conclusion is: x coordinate is MOVED to the LEFT (because of the minus) by 5 units on axis.
Lets see for which amount y coordinate for this vertex is MOVED:
y'=-1
y=2
We obtain the equation again:
Add to y coordinate value some constant (Cy), to obtain the value of new (transformed coordinate) y'.
y+Cy=y'
2+Cy=-1
Cy=-1-2
Cy=-3
The conclusion is that y coordinate for this vertex is MOVED down on Y axis by 3 units on axis.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We now observe in same manner the second vertex Y', and we expect to obtain the same constants as we obtained for the previous vertex, because that is the rule for the transformation being done, each vertex should MOVE by same amount of units on X and Y axis respectfully.
Hence, we now observe Y'(x', y') and Y(x, y):
x'=2
x=7
x+Cx=x' (some constant value added to x will produce the new value of x')
7+Cx=2
Cx=2-7
Cx=-5
So, the x coordinate value is MOVED to the left (meaning of minus) by 5 units, and the value of x' coordinate is obtained (transformation).
Next, we have for Y axis coordinates:
y'=0
y=3
y+Cy=y'
3+Cy=0
Cy=0-3
Cy=-3
So the conclusion is that y coordinate value is MOVED down by 3 units on Y axis, and in such way we obtained y' via transformation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We do the same approach for the third vertex X':
X'(x',y') and X(x,y)
We have to find coordinates for vertex X'(x',y')
We have coordinates to use, for X(x,y)=X(5,5).
x'=?
y'=?
x=5
y=5
-------
1) x+Cx=x'
5+(-5)=x' (because for previous two vertices we obtained that the constant Cx is for both vertices -5, Cx=-5)
hence, x'=5-5
x'=0
2) y+Cy=y'
5+(-3)=y' (because for previous two vertices we obtained that the constant Cy is for both vertices -3, Cy=-3)
y'=5-3
y'=2
Hence, the third TRANSFORMED vertex X' is with coordinates X'(0,2).

Look at the data in the table.
11111nata11111 [884]

Given table

______

x         y

______

2.4     9

7.2     28

7         24

8.3      35

3.1      9

7.2     30

9        32

_________

So, the coordinates on the graph (2.4, 9), (7.2, 28), (7, 24), (8.3, 35),  (3.1 , 9), ( 7.2, 30), (9, 32).

The first graph represents the line of best fit.

The definition of line of best fit " A line of best fit is a straight line that best represents the data on a scatter plot. This line may pass through some of the points, none of the points, or all of the points.".

<h3>Note: Most of the points should be as closer as possible to the drawn line. </h3>

A card is picked from a standard deck of 52 cards. Determine the odds against and the odds in favor of selecting a red face card
timama [110]
<h3>The probability of picking a red face card from the deck  is (\frac{3}{26} )</h3><h3>The probability of NOT picking a red face card from the deck  is (\frac{23}{26} )</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of cards in the deck  = 52

The total number of red( Diamond + Hearts)  face cards in the given deck

= 2 Red Queens +  2 Red jacks + 2 Red kings  = 6 cards

Let E : Event of picking a red face card from the deck

Now , P( any event)  = \frac{\textrm{The number of favorable observations}}{\textrm{Total number of observations}}

So, here P(Picking a red face card)  = \frac{\textrm{The number of red face cards}}{\textrm{Total number of cards}} =  (\frac{6}{52} ) = (\frac{3}{26})

Hence, the probability of picking a red face card from the deck  is (\frac{3}{26} )

Now, as we know P (any event NOT A)  = 1 - P(any event A)

So, P(NOT Picking a red face card) = 1 - P(Picking a red face card)

= 1 - (\frac{3}{26} ) = \frac{26-3}{26}  = (\frac{23}{26})

Hence,  the probability of NOT picking a red face card from the deck  is (\frac{23}{26} )
