Transformation that changes the size of a shape is referred to as dilation.

  • The scale factor that moves the large triangle to the small one is 1/5
  • The center of dilation is: (-1,1)

<u>The center of dilation</u>

From the diagram (see attachment), the triangles share a common vertex at (-1,1)

This means that, the center of dilation is (-1,1)

<u>The scale factor of dilation</u>

To do this, we divide the side length of the small triangle with the corresponding side of the large triangle.

From the attached image:

\mathbf{Base\ of\ small\ triangle = 1}

\mathbf{Base\ of\ large\ triangle = 5}

So, the scale factor (k) from large to small is:

\mathbf{k = \frac{Base\ of\ small\ triangle}{Base\ of\ large\ triangle} }

\mathbf{k = \frac{1}{5} }

You decide to play roulette 200 times each time betting the same amount on red. you will loe money if you win on fewer than 100
Arturiano [62]
First off, your chances of red are not really 50-50. You are overlooking the 0 slot or the 00 slot which are green. So, chances of red are 18 in 37 (0 slot) or 38 (0 and 00 slots). With a betting machine, the odds does not change no trouble what has occurred before. Think through the simplest circumstance, a coin toss. If I toss heads 10 times one after the other, the chances of tails about to happen on the next toss are still on a 50-50. A betting machine has no ability, no plan, and no past. 
Chances (0 slot) that you success on red are 18 out of 37 (18 red slots), but likelihoods of losing are 19 out of 37 (18 black plus 0). For the wheel with both a 0 and 0-0 slot, the odds are poorer. You chances of red are 18 out of 38 (18 red slots win), and down are 20 out of 38 (18 black plus 0 and 00). It does not really matter on how long you play there, the probabilities would always continue the same on every spin. The lengthier you play, the more thoroughly you will tie the chances with a total net loss of that portion of a percent in accord of the house. 18 winning red slots and either 19 or 20 losing slots.

what are the steps to answer this question? Jeff is baking a cake. The recipe says that he has to mix 32 grams of powder to the
Deffense [45]
Well what I would do first is to divide 128 by 32 which I do believe gets you 4. So now you know that 1 cup of powder can make 4 servings. So you now know that each serving only requires 1/4 cup of the powder.

So now we know Jeff went over so now we have Jeff added 2/3 and he only needs 1/4. I would now make them both equivalent by multiplying the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 4 and the same for 1/4 but instead by 4 multiply it by 3 which you would get 2/3=8/12 and 1/4=3/12. Now subtract the two to get your answer.

8/12-3/12=5/12

Answer: He went over and he needs to remove 5/12 of the cup
