Here is a polygon on a grid. An L shaped figure on a square grid. Draw a scaled copy of this polygon that has a perimeter of 30 units. What is the scale factor? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer: the perimeter of this L shaped figure is 10 units, so scaling it by 3× would make the perimeter 30 units. so the scale factor is 3

The scale factor of the figure is 3 units.

We need to draw a scaled copy of this polygon that has a perimeter of 30 units and also we need to find the scale factor.

What is the scale factor?

The scale factor is the ratio of one figure's side length to the other figure's corresponding side length.

If the sides of a polygon are changed by a scale factor 'a' then its perimeter is also changed by the same scale factor.

Now, scale factor = Scaled perimeter/Actual perimeter

From the figure, the perimeter of the figure is 10 units.

So, scale factor = 30/10 =3 units

Therefore, the scale factor of the figure is 3 units.

One of the specialties at Dixie’s Cafe is vegetable stew, which simmers over a low flame all day. Since the cooking time is so long, Dixie must decide in the morning how many servings of the stew to cook for that night’s dinner service. Moreover, the stew cooked on a given day cannot be served the next day; it must be thrown away. Vegetable stew is the highest-profit item on the menu at Dixie's Cafe. It earns Dixie a profit of $8.

Customers who want stew but find it out of stock will order one of these other items. The ingredients for one serving of stew cost the Cafe $2.50. A) First suppose that the demand for stew on a given evening is normally distributed with a mean of 18 and a variance of 16. How many servings of stew should Dixie prepare in the morning? (Fractional servings are OK). What is the expected cost (ingredients and lost profit) of the optimal solution? B) Now suppose that the demand is distributed as an exponential random variable with mean 18. How many servings should Dixie prepare?

16. The price of an item will increase by RM4 every month. If the current price
is RM258, find its price in ten months' time.

Answers

RM298

reason: multiply RM4 by 10 to get RM40 and add that to RM258 to get RM298

Answer:

Sol:

The current price of item = RM258

The price that increases every month = RM4

Now,

It's price in ten month's line= Current price + 10 X increased price per month

= RM 258 + 10X RM4

=RM 258+ RM 40

= RM 298

Therefore, it's price in ten month's line will be RM 298

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this answer by taking two coordinates shown and put them into a fraction form.

Example:

The second coordinate is (2, 6)--> 2/6, which reduced is 1/3.

To test that 1/3 is correct, you can do another coordinate: (4, 12)-->4/12, which reduced is also 1/3.

So 1/ 3 is correct.

Or take a look at the graph...

the red lines are always two units across, and the blue lines are always six units in height. So 2/6, (length, height), which can be reduced to 1/3, the constant of proportionality.

Answer:

The answer is 3.825 inches, the reduced picture will be 84% of the size of the original

Answer:

3.78 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

if the original length is 4.5 and we are making it 84 percent of that size we multiply 4.5 times 84 percent(that is 0.84).

If we type in 4.5 * 0.84 on a calculator the answer comes back as 3.78

so the answer is 3.78 inches

Find the inverse of the function: f ( x ) = 1 5 x + 4 Group of answer choices f − 1 ( x ) = 4 x − 5 f − 1 ( x ) = − 5 x − 4 f − 1 ( x ) = x − 4

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

[tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{5}x+4[/tex]

To find the inverse, simply switch x and f(x), change f(x) to f⁻¹(x), and solve for it. Thus:

[tex]x=\frac{1}{5}f^{-1}(x)+4[/tex]

Subtract 4 from both sides:

[tex]x-4=\frac{1}{5}f^{-1}(x)[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 5:

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=5x-20[/tex]

So that's our inverse :)

Consider the differential equationy′′+3y′−10y=0.(a) Find the general solution to this differential equation.(b) Now solve the initial-value problem corresponding to y(0)=2 and y′(0)=10.

Answers

Answer:

Y= 2e^(5t)

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking Laplace of the given differential equation:

s^2+3s-10=0

s^2+5s-2s-10=0

s(s+5)-2(s+5) =0

(s-2) (s+5) =0

s=2, s=-5

Hence, the general solution will be:

Y=Ae^(-2t)+ Be^(5t)………………………………(D)

Put t = 0 in equation (D)

Y (0) =A+B

2 =A+B……………………………………… (i)

Now take derivative of (D) with respect to "t", we get:

Y=-2Ae^(-2t)+5Be^(5t)   ....................... (E)

Put t = 0 in equation (E) we get:

Y’ (0) = -2A+5B

10  = -2A+5B ……………………………………(ii)

2(i) + (ii) =>

2A+2B=4 .....................(iii)

-2A+5B=10 .................(iv)

Solving (iii) and (iv)

7B=14

B=2

Now put B=2 in (i)

A=2-2

A=0

By putting the values of A and B in equation (D)

Y= 2e^(5t)

Answers

Answer:

He has 12 ten dollar bills

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = number of 10 dollar bills

f = number of fifty dollar bills

t+f = 25  since he has 25 bills

solving for f

f = 25 -t

Then we know he has 770 dollars

10t+50f = 770

Using f = 25-t in the above equation

10t + 50 ( 25-t) = 770

Distribute

10t+ 1250 - 50t = 770

Combine like terms

-40t+1250 = 770

subtract 1250 from each side

-40t - 1250-1250 = 770-1250

-40t = -480

divide each side by -40

-40t/-40 = -480/-40

t =12

He has 12 ten dollar bills
