Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Before a dilation you have the point (x,y).

After a dilation of a scale factor of r you have (r*x,r*y).

Let's look at one pair of corresponding points.

A(-11,7)  and A'(22,-14)

We need to figure out what we can multiply to -11 to get 22.

We need to figure out what we can multiply to 7 to get -14.

Hopefully it is the same number or this isn't a dilation.

So to get from pre-image to image you need to multiply by -2 because -11*-2=22 and 7*-2=-14.

The scale factor is -2.

The dilation is this: (x,y)->(-2x,-2y)

A case in riverhead, new york, nine different crime victims listened to voice recordings of five different men. all nine victims
Alexus [3.1K]

the complete question in the attached figure

1) Find the probability that all nine victims would select the same person. You should enter your answer as a decimal, not as a percent. Do not round, as your answer should be a terminating decimal.

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.000000512

2) what is the probability that the first victim picks SOMEONE? ANYONE? 

P=(1/5)=0.20  ---------------- > 20%

3) Now let’s look at victim #2. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1?

P=(1/5)*(1/5)=0.04 --------------> 4%

4) Now let’s look at victim #3. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1?

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.008 --------------> 0.8%

5) Now let's look at victim #9. What is the probability that they pick the same person as victim #1? 

P=(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)*(1/5)=0.000000512

6) Once you find all those probabilities, what rule would apply?

the probability is given by (1/5)^n

n=number of victims that pick the same person---------> in this problem = 9

P=(1/5)^9= 0.000000512

The following two sets of parametric functions both represent the same ellipse. Explain the difference between the graphs.
statuscvo [17]
The answer
ellipse main equatin is as follow:

X²/ a²   +  Y²/ b²  =1, where a≠0 and b≠0

for the first equation: <span>x = 3 cos t and y = 8 sin t
</span>we can write <span>x² = 3² cos² t and y² = 8² sin² t
and then  </span>x² /3²= cos² t and y²/8² =  sin² t
therefore,  x² /3²+ y²/8²  =  cos² t + sin² t = 1
equivalent to x² /3²+ y²/8²  = 1

for the second equation, <span>x = 3 cos 4t and y = 8 sin 4t we found
</span>x² /3²+ y²/8²  = cos² 4t + sin² 4t=1

The amount of time a passenger waits at an airport check-in counter is random variable with mean 10 minutes and standard deviati
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

(a) less than 10 minutes

= 0.5

(b) between 5 and 10 minutes

= 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using z score formula. We given a random number of samples, z score formula :

z-score is z = (x-μ)/ Standard error where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

Standard error : σ/√n

σ is the population standard deviation

n = number of samples

(a) less than 10 minutes

x = 10 μ = 10, σ = 2 n = 50

z = 10 - 10/2/√50

z = 0 / 0.2828427125

z = 0

Using the z table to find the probability

P(z ≤ 0) = P(z < 0) = P(x = 10)

= 0.5

Therefore, the probability that the average waiting time waiting in line for this sample is less than 10 minutes = 0.5

(b) between 5 and 10 minutes

i) For 5 minutes

x = 5 μ = 10, σ = 2 n = 50

z = 5 - 10/2/√50

z = -5 / 0.2828427125

= -17.67767

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x<5) = 0

Using the z table to find the probability

P(z ≤ 0) = P(z = -17.67767) = P(x = 5)

= 0

ii) For 10 minutes

x = 10 μ = 10, σ = 2 n = 50

z = 10 - 10/2/√50

z = 0 / 0.2828427125

z = 0

Using the z table to find the probability

P(z ≤ 0) = P(z < 0) = P(x = 10)

= 0.5

Hence, the probability that the average waiting time waiting in line for this sample is between 5 and 10 minutes is

P(x = 10) - P(x = 5)

= 0.5 - 0

= 0.5

On a road map, the locations A, B and C are collinear. Location C divides the road from location A to B, such that AC:CB = 1:2.
koban [17]

Answer:

C. (-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since C internally divides AB in the ratio AC/CB = 1/2 = m/n where m = 1 and n = 2, we use the formula for internal division.

Let A = (x₁, y₁) = (5, 16), B = (x₂, y₂) and C = (x, y) = (3, 10)

So x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

Substituting the values of the coordinates, we have

x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

3 = (1 × x₂ + 2 × 5)/(2 + 1)

3 = (x₂ + 10)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

9 = x₂ + 10

x₂ = 9 - 10

x₂ = -1

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

10 = (1 × y₂ + 2 × 16)/(2 + 1)

10 = (x₂ + 32)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

30 = y₂ + 32

y₂ = 30 - 32

y₂ = -2

So, the coordinates of B are (-1, -2)
