Are these figures are similar? If so, what is the scale factor?

Answer:

Yes, the scale factor is 0.6 repeating, or 0.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the scale factor by dividing the smaller sides by the corresponding larger ones.

12/18 = 0.6 repeating

14/21 = 0.6 repeating

16/24 = 0.6 repeating

These triangles could be similar by SSS or SAS or ASA I think since congruent angles are shown in both triangles as well.

Answer:

\frac{a}{p}\times (q-r)+\frac{b}{q}\times (r-p)+\frac{c}{r}\times (p-q)\neq 0  is proved for the sum of pth, qth and rth terms of an arithmetic progression are a, b,and c respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the sum of pth, qth and rth terms of an arithmetic progression are a, b and c respectively.

First term of given arithmetic progression is A

and common difference is D

ie., a_{1}=A and common difference=D

The nth term can be written as

a_{n}=A+(n-1)D

pth term of given arithmetic progression is a

a_{p}=A+(p-1)D=a

qth term of given arithmetic progression is b

a_{q}=A+(q-1)D=b and

rth term of given arithmetic progression is c

a_{r}=A+(r-1)D=c

We have to prove that

\frac{a}{p}\times (q-r)+\frac{b}{q}\times (r-p)+\frac{c}{r}\times (p-q)=0

Now to prove LHS=RHS

Now take LHS

\frac{a}{p}\times (q-r)+\frac{b}{q}\times (r-p)+\frac{c}{r}\times (p-q)

=\frac{A+(p-1)D}{p}\times (q-r)+\frac{A+(q-1)D}{q}\times (r-p)+\frac{A+(r-1)D}{r}\times (p-q)

=\frac{A+pD-D}{p}\times (q-r)+\frac{A+qD-D}{q}\times (r-p)+\frac{A+rD-D}{r}\times (p-q)

=\frac{Aq+pqD-Dq-Ar-prD+rD}{p}+\frac{Ar+rqD-Dr-Ap-pqD+pD}{q}+\frac{Ap+prD-Dp-Aq-qrD+qD}{r}

=\frac{[Aq+pqD-Dq-Ar-prD+rD]\times qr+[Ar+rqD-Dr-Ap-pqD+pD]\times pr+[Ap+prD-Dp-Aq-qrD+qD]\times pq}{pqr}

=\frac{Arq^{2}+pq^{2} rD-Dq^{2} r-Aqr^{2}-pqr^{2} D+qr^{2} D+Apr^{2}+pr^{2} qD-pDr^{2} -Ap^{2}r-p^{2} rqD+p^{2} rD+Ap^{2} q+p^{2} qrD-Dp^{2} q-Aq^{2} p-q^{2} prD+q^{2}pD}{pqr}

=\frac{Arq^{2}-Dq^{2}r-Aqr^{2}+qr^{2}D+Apr^{2}-pDr^{2}-Ap^{2}r+p^{2}rD+Ap^{2}q-Dp^{2}q-Aq^{2}p+q^{2}pD}{pqr}

=\frac{Arq^{2}-Dq^{2}r-Aqr^{2}+qr^{2}D+Apr^{2} -pDr^{2}-Ap^{2}r+p^{2}rD+Ap^{2}q-Dp^{2}q-Aq^{2}p+q^{2}pD}{pqr}

\neq 0

ie., RHS\neq 0

Therefore LHS\neq RHS

ie.,\frac{a}{p}\times (q-r)+\frac{b}{q}\times (r-p)+\frac{c}{r}\times (p-q)\neq 0  

Hence proved

He raised $736.

One way is to multiply 640 x .15 = 96
Add 96 + 640 = 736

Suppose that only 25% of all drivers come to a complete stop at an intersection having flashing red lights in all directions whe
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

X \sim Binom(n=15, p=0.25)

For this case we can use the probability mass function and we got:

P(X= 5) = (15C5) (0.25)^{5} (1-0.25)^{15-5}= 0.165

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A Bernoulli trial is "a random experiment with exactly two possible outcomes, "success" and "failure", in which the probability of success is the same every time the experiment is conducted". And this experiment is a particular case of the binomial experiment.

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=15, p=0.25)

For this case we can use the probability mass function and we got:

P(X= 5) = (15C5) (0.25)^{5} (1-0.25)^{15-5}= 0.165
