Can dilations be used to form scale copies of a figure?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways that dilation is used in real life. Here are several:

In graphic design. I actually do some graphic design, and I use dilation a lot. It is common to dilate photos to fit the space that you want it to fit.

In police work and crime investigation. Detectives and police dilate photos to see smaller details and evidence.

In architecture. It is normal for architects to make a prototype of their design or building. In order to make the building true to the prototype, they must dilate the scale and measurements.

In the doctor's office. Dilation is used in eye exams so that the eye doctor can view the patient's eye better. After a while it will slowly reduce in size and return back to normal.

The average of 10 numbers is -5. A new number is added to the list making the average -6. What is the new number?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

- 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Average is calculated as

average = \frac{total}{count}

Thus for the given 10 numbers we have

\frac{total}{10} = - 5 ( multiply both sides by 10 )

total = - 50

let the number added be x, then

\frac{total+x}{11} = - 6 ( multiply both sides by 11 )

total + x = - 66, that is

- 50 + x = - 66 ( add 50 to both sides )

x = - 16

The new number is - 16
