In the figure above, rectangle R'S'T'Q' is a dilation of rectangle RSTQ. What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Mathematics

trasher [3.6K]3 years ago

Answer:

A. \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor of dilation is the ratio of the length of any of the corresponding sides of rectangle R'S'T'Q to rectangle PQRS.

R'S' = 3

RS = 15

Thus,

Scale factor = \frac{R'S'}{RS} = \frac{3}{15}

Simplify

Scale factor = \frac{1}{5}

A study was designed to investigate the effects of two​ variables, (1) A​ student's level of mathematical anxiety and​ (2) teach
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

P(X>400)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{400-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{400-440}{20})=P(z>-2)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(440,20)  

Where \mu=440 and \sigma=20

We are interested on this probability

P(X>440)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>400)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{400-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{400-440}{20})=P(z>-2)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(z>-2)=1-P(z

An account earns simple interest. (a) Find the interest earned. (b) Find the
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

#a. $80

#b. $1680

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • Amount invested (principal) is $1600
  • Rate of interest is 5%
  • Time = 1 year

We are required to determine the amount of simple interest earned and the amount or balance in the account after 1 year.

#a. Interest earned

To calculate simple interest we use the formula;

I = (PRT) ÷ 100

Where, P is the principal, R is the rate, T is the time and I is the simple interest.

Therefore;

I = (1600 × 5 × 1) ÷ 100

 = $80

Therefore, simple interest earned is $80

#b. Balance of the account (Amount accrued)

We are going to use the formula;

A = P + I , where A is the amount accrued, P is the principal and I is the simple interest earned.

Therefore;

Account balance = $1600 + $80

                            = $1680

Thus, the account balance after 1 year will be $1680
