<h3>
Answer: (2, 3)</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
1/4 = 0.25 is the scale factor
Multiply this with each coordinate of the given point
0.25*8 = 2 is the new x coordinate
0.25*12 = 3 is the new y coordinate
So (8,12) moves to (2,3) after applying the dilation
The scale factor k makes 0 < k < 1 true, so the point is closer to the origin after applying the dilation.
--------
Side note: this trick of multiplying the scale factor by each coordinate only works if the dilation is centered at the origin. For any other center, you'll need to apply a translation first, dilate, then translate back again.
140-525 would be the range
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we want to find this probability:

Because they want the area to the left of the value. We need to remember that the normal standard distribution have a mean of 0 and a deviation of 1.
We can use the following excel code: =NORM.DIST(-1.55,0,1,TRUE)
And we got:

The other possibility is use the normal standard table and we got a similar result.
