2.4 ÷ 0.3 = 8
Scale factor = 8
8 = positive integer
Therefore, it is an enlargement

Answer:

Part A) The scale factor is equal to $8$

Part B) Is an enlargement

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale factor is equal to divide the corresponding side of the resulting triangle by the corresponding side of the first triangle

Let

z----> the scale factor

x------> the corresponding side of the resulting triangle

y-----> the corresponding side of the first triangle

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

we have

$x=2.4\ units$

$y=0.3\ units$

substitute

$z=\frac{2.4}{0.3}=8$

Remember that

If the scale factor is greater than one------> is an enlargement

If the scale factor is less than one------> is a reduction

In this problem

$8> 1$ -------> is an enlargement

Yanka [14]

Answer:

The ratio is multiplying 1.6 so just pick all the proportional relationships where you have to multiply by 1.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportional relationships man you have to multiply, but since I didn't know what you multiplied 5 to get to 8 I divided.

8÷5=1.6

And if you want to check your answer then multiply.

5×1.6=8

Kate made a box to hold her jewelry collection. She used 42 inches of wood to build the sides of the box. If the box was 9 Inche

antoniya [11.8K]

We can use the 9 inches wide to determine that 18 inches of the 42 inches are the wide sides. 42 - 18 = 24, so we divide 24 by how many long sides there are, 2. 24 ÷ 2 = 12. The box was 12 inches long.

Find the size of each of two samples (assume that they are of equal size) needed to estimate the difference between the proporti

lesya [120]

Answer:

a) the sample size (n) = 156.25≅ 156

Step-by-step explanation:

Step1 :-

Given the two sample sizes are equal so $n_{1} =n_{2} = n$

Given the standard error (S.E) = 0.04

The standard error of the proportion of the given sample size

$S.E = \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }$

Step 2:-

here we assume that the proportion of boys and girls are equally likely

p= 1/2 and q= 1/2

$S.E = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } \leq \frac{\frac{1}{2} }{\sqrt{n} }$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{\frac{1}{2} }{S.E}$

squaring on both sides, we get

$n = \frac{1}{(2X0.04)^{2} }$

on simplification, we get

n= 156.25 ≅ 156

sample size (n) = 156

verification:-

$S.E = \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }= \sqrt{\frac{1}{4X156} } =\sqrt{0.0016}$

Standard error = 0.04

What value for c will make the expression a perfect square trinomial? x2 – 7x + c negative StartFraction 49 Over 4 EndFraction n

puteri [66]

Answer: $c=\frac{49}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the value of "c" that will make it a perfect square trinomial by Completing the square.

Given the following expression provided in the exercise:

$x^2 - 7x + c$

You can notice that it is written in this form:

$ax^2-bx+c$

Then, you can identify that the coefficient "b" is:

$b=-7$

Since to complete the square you must add and subtract the half of square of coefficient "b", you can conclude that:

$c=(\frac{b}{2})^2$

Therefore, substituting "b" into $c=(\frac{b}{2})^2$ , you get:

$c=(\frac{-7}{2})^2\\\\c=\frac{49}{4}$

Find the median for the given set of data 0.6 , 1.1, 0.87, 2, 0.87, 1.23

Bezzdna [24]

To find the median, place the numbers in order from least to greatest then find the number in the middle

0.6, 0.87, (0.87, 1.1), 1.23, 2

0.87 and 1.1 are in the center.

Add 0.87 to 1.1 then divide it by 2

0.87 + 1.1 = 1.97

Half of 1.97 is 0.985

Hope this helps
