Answer:

D. Between 0 and 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an incomplete sentence. We are asked to complete our given sentence.

Sentence: A dilation is a reduction if the scale factor is _____.

We know that dilation is a transformation that changes the size of an image and produces another image that has same shape but different size.

Dilation either stretches or shrinks the original figure. It depends on scale factor. When scale factor is less than 1, the size of the figure reduces. When the scale factor is greater than 1, then size of the figure stretches.

So, the correct choice is option D as if we multiply any number by 0, we get 0. Therefore, a dilation is a reduction if the scale factor is <u>between 0 and 1</u>.

Help with Similarity Triangles Geometry. I dont understand how to solve for x on this one.​
valkas [14]

since we know those two triangles are similar then we can use proportions.

\cfrac{AE}{AB}=\cfrac{AD}{AC}\implies \cfrac{14-8}{2x}=\cfrac{14}{2x+4}\implies \cfrac{6}{2x}=\cfrac{14}{2x+4}\implies \cfrac{3}{x}=\cfrac{14}{2x+4} \\\\\\ 6x+12=14x\implies 12=8x\implies \cfrac{12}{8}=x\implies \cfrac{3}{2}=x \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ AB=2x+4\implies AB=2\left( \frac{3}{2} \right)+4\implies AB=3+4\implies AB=7

A bag of marbles contains 2 gold marbles, 10 silver marbles, and 30 black marbles. You decide to play the following game: Random
Rasek [7]

Answer:

-71 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of balls is 2 + 10 + 30 = 42 balls

The probability of getting gold marbleP_g = 2/42 = 0.04762

The probability of getting silver marbleP_s = 10/42 = 0.2381

The probability of getting black marbleP_b = 30/42 = 0.7143

With the price for each case, we can calculate the expected value of the game by multiplying the price money by the probability and sum them up

E = 5P_g + 2P_s - 2P_b

E = 5*0.04762 + 2*0.2381 - 2*0.7143 = -0.714 dollar

or -71 cents.

So expect to lose 71 cents everytime you play this game
