JKLM to WXYZ

JM = 9                ZW = 13.5
JK = 12               WX = 18

the scale factor is what u multiply the original shape to get the coordinates of the other shape.
13.5 / 9 = 1.5

9 * 1.5 = 13.5
12 * 1.5 = 18

so ur scale factor is 1.5 (because if u multiply 1.5 by the original shape, u get the new shape)

Zach has a terrarium with the dimensions of 20 by 8 and the terrarium was filled with 3 inches of sand.Zach gets a new terrarium
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: the sand in the new terrarium is 2 inches deep.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zach has a terrarium with the dimensions of 20 by 8 and the terrarium was filled with 3 inches of sand. It means that the volume of sand that this terrarium contains is

20 × 8 × 3 = 480 inches³

Zach gets a new terrarium that is larger with the dimensions of 10 by 24. If Zach moved the existing sand in the new terrarium and the height of the sand is represented by h, then the volume of sand into he new terrarium is

10 × 24 × h = 240h

Since the volume of sand in both terrariums is equal, then

240h = 480

h = 480/240

h = 2 inches

There are 5 pens in a container on your desk. Among them, 3 will write well but 2 have defective ink cartridges. You will select
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of pens = 5

Number of defective pens = 2

Number of non-defective pens = 3

A.) number of defective pens selected :

X : {0, 1, 2}

It is possible that no defective pen will be selected ; 1 defective will be chosen or both pens are defective.

2.)

Defective as Success (since selecting a defective pen is the point of interest.

3.)

Since selection is done without replacement

Probability of success per selection is different for each selection ;

Number of defective = 2

Number of observations = 5

P(success on first selection) = 2/5

P(success on second selection) = 1/4

Hence, X is not well approximated by a binomial random variable.

4.) if selection is done with replacement ; then then the probability of success per selection will be the Same for each selection made. Hence, X will be well approximated by a binomial Random variable.

5.) If sampling is done without replacement, then the the hypergeometric function will be a more effective approximation.
