Answer:

  • No, different

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Last year</h3>

Bought 40 sets

Sold 25 sets

  • Error = 25 - 40 = -15
  • Absolute error = | - 15| = 15
  • Percent error =  15/40*100% = 37.5%
<h3>This year</h3>

Bought 75 sets

Sold 60 sets

  • Error = 60 - 75 = -15
  • Absolute error = |-15| = 15
  • Percent error = 15/75*100% = 20%

We can see absolute errors are same but percent errors are different.

The reason is the referenced numbers are different.

scale factor=0.4

</span><span><u>Explanation </u>
</span><span>The scale factor for any transformation is the ration of the image distance to the object distance.
That is the ratio of distance from the origin to the image to the distance from the origin to the object.
In the case above, OR’is the image distance and OR is the object distance.
OR’ = √(〖1.2〗^2+〖3.6〗^2 )=√14.4=3.794733192
OR = √(3^2+9^2 )=√90=9.486832981

The scale factor = 3.794733192/9.486832981
=0.4

Zina [86]

Answer:

The area of the wrestling ring is 5.29π m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A sumo wrestling ring is circular and has a circumference of 4.6π meters.

To find its area, we need to first find its radius.

The circumference of a circle is given as:

C = 2 \pi r

where r = radius

Hence, the radius of the ring will be:

4.6\pi = 2\pi r\\r = 4.6 /2 = 2.3m

The radius of the ring is 2.3 m.

The area of a circle is given as:

A = \pi r^2

Hence, the area of the wrestling ring (in terms of π) will be:

A = \pi * 2.3^2

A = 5.29\pi m^2

The area of the wrestling ring is 5.29π m^2

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

0.071

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of wins by Alaskan Malamute = 21

Number of win by Great Pyrenees = 3

Number of wins by Siberian Husky = 18

Total number of shows = 42

We need to calculate the empirical probability that next winner will be a Great Pyrenees.

Empirical probability is defined as the ratio of the number of times a specific event occurs to total number of possibilities of all events being considered. In given case, the event that best of the show was a Great Pyrenees occurred 3 times, and total number of events were 42. So,

Empirical Probability that next winner will be a Great Pyrenees = \frac{3}{42}=0.071

Hence, the empirical probability that the next winner of "Best of Show" will be a Great Pyrenees is 0.071
