The value of scale k is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the scale , we can either divide the coordinates of H' by the original point or compare both the points to find the original ordered pair.

Given

H(3,4)

H'(9,12)

The coordinates of H are multiplied with some integer k to form H'

So,

For x-coordinate:

3k = 9

k = 9/3 = 3

For y-coordinate:

4k = 12

k = 12/4 = 3

Hence,

The value of scale k is 3

Vladimir [108]

Answer: 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Tim and Jim are working on a school project together.

Tim takes 10 hours to complete the school project.

If Jim worked alone, it would take him 15 hours

Let t be the time they both take if they work together.

Then, $\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{\text{Time taken by Tim}}+\dfrac{1}{\text{Time taken by jim}}$

$\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{1}{15}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3+2}{30}=\dfrac{5}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow t=6$

So, it will take 6 hours to complete the school project together .

If a random variable X is exponentially distributed with parameter λ=2, then P(X≥1) is equal to

Rasek [7]

Answer:

D. 0.1353

B. 0.0473

Step-by-step explanation:

For an exponentially distributed random variable, the cumulative distribution function is:

$P(x\leq a) = 1 - e^{-\lambda a}\\P(x\geq a) = e^{-\lambda a}$

with parameter λ=2, then P(X≥1) is equal to:

$P(x\geq 1) = e^{-2*1}=0.1353$

D. 0.1353

with parameter λ=1.5, then P(2≤X≤4) is equal to

$P(2\leq x \leq 4) = P(x \leq 4) - P(x\leq 2)\\P(2\leq x \leq 4) =1 - (e^{-1.5*4}) - (1-(e^{-1.5*2}))\\P(2\leq x \leq 4) = 0.0473$

B. 0.0473

1. Darnell reads at a constant rate

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Darnell can read 1,715 words in 7 minutes

Step by step Explanation:

1. I need to find out how many words he reads in 1 minute. Divide 735 by 3, my answer is 245

245

______

3)735

6 bring down the 3 to make 13

-_____

1 3

12 bring down the 5 to make 15

-______

1 5

___________

2. multiply 735 by 2 cause he reads 735 words in 3 minutes and we are tryna find out how many words he reads in 7 minutes. 3×2=6, so 735+735 (735×2) equals 1470

3. Add 245, for that extra minute that we missed. my answer is 1,715 words in 7 minutes
