Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3.47 = 3 sig. figs.

6.7 = 2 sig. figs.

Since these two numbers are being multiplied, you would round to the smallest number of sig. figs. of the two. In this case, it would be 2 significant figures.

3.47 * 6.7 = 23.249 (dont forget to round to 2 sig. figs. ) --> 23

35a + 25c = 2660
a = 2c

35(2c) + 25c = 2660
70c + 25c = 2660
95c = 2660
c = 2660/95
c = 28 <=== there were 28 children tickets

a = 2c
a = 2(28)
a = 56 <== there were 56 adult tickets

Heights of male students in the eighth grade are normally distributed with a mean of 57.2 in. and standard deviation of 2.4 in.

romanna [79]

In statistics finding percentiles relates to the standard deviation and something called a z-score. For normally distributed data the z-score represents how many standard deviations above or below the mean that group is a part of. The z-score for normally distributed data for the 90th percentile is 1.28. The standard deviation is then multiplied by the z-score to find, in this case, the shotlrtest height needed to be in the 90th percentile of this population. In this case to be in the 90th percentile your height must be 60.27 inches.

Quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 1 over 3 centered around (1, 2). Which statement is true about the dilation?

Sonbull [250]

Note: Since you missed to add the figure. So, after a little research I am kind of able to find the figure and hence, assuming it as a reference. Hence, I am attaching the figure and solution of that figure is also visible in the same figure. Please check the attached figure (a)

Answer:

Segment B'D' will be parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD. Please see the attached figure (a) for better understanding.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that there are certain rules when a quadrilateral is dilated by a certain scale centered around a certain point.

So,

Let suppose P(a, b) is the point.

The dilation rule by a scale factor of 1 over 3 or (1/3) centered around (1, 2) is

P(a, b) → $P(\frac{x+2}{3}, \frac{y+4}{3})$

Hence,

A(1, 2) → A'(1, 2)

B(2, 3) → B'(4/3, 7/3)

C(4, 2) → C'(2, 2)

D(2, 1) → D'(4/3, 5/3)

The attached figure show that if we draw the all these points in the coordinate plan i.e. A(1, 2), B(2, 3), C(4, 2), D(2, 1) and A'(1, 2), B'(4/3, 7/3), C'(2, 2), D'(4/3, 5/3), we can determine that Segment B'D' will be parallel to segment BD and will be shorter than segment BD.
