<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

1/2

1/3

6

1/6

<em><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></em>

When we are finding the opposite of a scale factor, the scale factor is always the reciprocal. E.g. From S to R, the scale factor is 3, so from R to S, the scale factor is 1/3 so:

1. From T to S, it's the reciprocal of the scale factor (2) so 1/2

2. From S to R, it's the reciprocal of the scale factor (3) so 1/3

3. From R to T, is the from a figure to a figure to a figure so we can multiply the two scale factors (2 and 3) to get 6

4. From T to R, that's the opposite of R to T, so it's the reciprocal of the scale factor from R to T (6) so 1/6

2. Juanita is asked to write the standard equation of a
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

It is not.  Also use ^2 to represent squaring a number.  

Step-by-step explanation:

First, USE ^2 FOR SQUARED

It is not correct.

The standard equation of a circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius.

In your question the center is (-2,3) and the radius is the length of the line segment from the center to any pointon the circle.  nd hey, it tells us a point on the circle is (-2,6).

Let's take it one part at a time.  we know h and k so let's plug them in.

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2

(x-(-2))^2 + (y-3)^2

(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2

now r is the length of the line segment from (-2,3) and (-2,6).  To get from (-2,3) to (-2,6) hopefully it is pretty obvious you just move up (so int he y direction) 3 spaces.  this makes r = 3.  int he formula we want r^2 and that is 9.  The result is that the circle has a formula of:

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 9

The formula Juanita got is actually a hyperbola.

The area of a small pond is 78.5 yds. What is the diameter of the pond?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Diameter of pound = 10 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Given area of circular pond = 78.5 square yd

To find the diameter of the pond.

Solution:

The pond being circular in shape, the area of pond can be given as:

⇒ \pi\ r^2

where r represents radius of the pond.

Thus, we have:

⇒ \pi\ r^2=78.5

Using \pi=3.14

⇒ 3.14r^2=78.5

Solving for r

Dividing both sides by 3.14

⇒ \frac{3.14r^2}{3.14}=\frac{78.5}{3.14}

⇒ r^2=25

Taking square root both sides.

⇒ \sqrt{r^2}=\sqrt{25}

⇒ r=\pm5

So, radius = 5 yd, as distances are always positive.

Diameter = 2\times radius=2\times 5\ yd= 10\ yd

Thus, diameter of pound = 10 yd

To make a profit, a clothing store sells jeans at 115% the amount they paid for them. How much did the store pay for the jeans s
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount the clothing store pay for Jean be X

Let the amount the clothing store sells Jean be Y = X ×1.15

The profit (P) made is the difference between amount the clothing store sells Jean and the amount paid for Jean = Y - X = 1.15X - X

Profit (P)  = 0.15X

X =  P/0.15 = 6.67P

Therefore, the store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans

The distribution of the amount of a customer’s purchase at a convenience store is approximately normal, with mean $15.50 and sta
viktelen [127]

Answer:

0.42 is closest to the proportion of customer purchase amounts between $14.00 and $16.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = \mu = 15.50

Standard deviation = \sigma = 1.72

We are supposed to find the proportion of customer purchase amounts between $14.00 and $16.00

P(14<x<16)

Formula : z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

At x = 14

z=\frac{14-15.50}{1.72}

z=-0.8720

Refer the  z table for p value

P(x<14)=0.1922

At x = 16

z=\frac{16-15.50}{1.72}

z=0.290

Refer the  z table for p value

P(x<16)=0.6141

P(14<x<16)=P(x<16)-P(x<14)=0.6141-0.1922=0.42

So, Option C is true

Hence 0.42 is closest to the proportion of customer purchase amounts between $14.00 and $16.00
