Dilation is a type of transformation in geometry that changes the size of a shape without changing its orientation. When a shape is dilated by 1 2, it means that the shape is multiplied by a factor of 1 2.

This means that the shape is made half of its original size. The shape will be reduced to one-half of its original area and its perimeter will be halved as well. When a shape is dilated by a factor greater than 1, it will be expanded; when a shape is dilated by a factor less than 1, it will be reduced.

When a shape is dilated by 1 2, the center of dilatation is the same as the original shape's center of dilation. The scale factor of the dilation is 1 2, so the coordinates of the center of dilation will not change.

The instantaneous rate of change of 2/(t-3) when the variable is equal to -1, is:

f'(-1) =  -1/8

Here we have the function:

f(t) = 2/(t - 3)

To find the instantaneous rate of change at t = -1, we need to differentiate the function with respect to t, and then evaluate it at t = -1

First, the derivate of the function is:

f'(t) = df(t)/dt = (-1)*2/(t - 3)²

f'(t) = -2/(t - 3)²

If the model train is 57 cm long, then 266 m is the length of real train.

In the given question, a model train has a scale of 3 cm : 14 m.

If the model train is 57 cm long, then we have to find how long the real train is.

The scale of model train is 3 cm :  14 m.

Now firstly convert m in cm. As we know that 1 m = 100 cm

Now, the scale of model train is 3 cm :  1400 cm.

The length of the model train is 57 cm.

So in the scale of the model train 3 cm = 57 cm

Now the scale of the model train 1 cm = 19 cm

Now find the length of the real train by multiplying the 1400  by 19 because in the scale of 1 cm is equal to the 19 cm.

So, the length of the real train = 1400 × 19

The length of the real train = 26600 cm

The length of the real train = 266 m

Replace -0.5 with the fraction -1/2 if needed.

======================================================

Explanation:

The legs of any right triangle are always perpendicular. They meet up to form a right angle, aka 90 degree angle.

The line y = 2x+4 goes through (2,8). This can be confirmed with a graph. Or note how plugging x = 2 leads to y = 8.

Therefore, y = 2x+4 forms one of the legs of this triangle.

The slope here is 2 = 2/1; the negative reciprocal is -1/2 = -0.5, which is the slope of the perpendicular line. We want this line to go through (2,8)

So,

y = mx+b

8 = -0.5*2+b

8 = -1+b

8+1 = b

9 = b

b = 9

The equation of the perpendicular line is y = -0.5x+9

The behavior of the graph relative to the x axis can be described by the equation of the line.

The equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope of a line represents the rate of change of the graph with respect to the x axis; a positive slope indicates the graph is increasing, while a negative slope indicates it is decreasing. The y-intercept is the point at which the line crosses the y axis. For example, if the equation of the line is y = 2x + 4, then the slope of the line is 2, meaning the graph increases by 2 units every time the x axis increases by 1 unit, and the y-intercept is 4, meaning the line crosses the y axis at the point (0, 4). By analyzing the equation of the line, you can determine the behavior of the graph relative to the x axis.

The new velocity of the object is -4.04 m/s

Impulse is the change in momentum of an object which a force causes. It is  equal to the magnitude of the force multiplied by the length of time the force is applied.

Mathematically:

Impulse (I) = change in momentum = force(F) × time (t)

Also,

Ft = m(v-u)

I = m(v-u)

where m is the mass of the object, v is the new velocity and u is the initial velocity

From the given information; m = 148kg, u = -3.5m/s, I = -80 kg m/s:

I = m(v-u)

-80 = 148(v - (-3.5))

-80 = 148(v +3.5)

-80 = 148v + 518

148v = -80-518

There is a significant association if is between 0.85 and 1. There is a moderate connection if lies between 0.5 and 0.85. If, then there is a weak association between the two variables.

The strength of the linear link between two separate variables, x and y, is shown by correlation coefficients.

A positive relationship is shown by a linear correlation coefficient greater than zero.

Indicating a negative association is a value less than zero. The two variables x and y do not have any relationship when their values are 0, to sum up.

The correlation coefficient (r2) is a statistic that expresses how closely two variables' movements are related to one another.

To determine the linear relationship between two variables, the Pearson product-moment correlation, the most popular correlation coefficient, is used.

However, this correlation value might not necessarily be a reliable indicator of reliance in a non-linear connection.

The function for the given compound interest will be A = 3000(1+6/4)  and A = 5000(1+7.2)  .

What is compound interest?

The interest on savings that is computed on both the initial principal and the interest accrued over time is known as compound interest. Compound interest is computed by multiplying the starting principal amount by one and the annual interest rate is raised to the number of compound periods minus one. The final step is to deduct the initial loan principal from the calculated value.

When the amount compounds quarterly, it means that the amount compounds 4 times in a year. i.e., n = 4. We use this fact to derive the quarterly compound interest formula. Thus, the quarterly compound interest formula is:

$3000 deposit that earns 6% annual interest compounded quarterly.

A = P (1 + r/4)4

A = 3000(1+6/4)

$5000 deposit that earns 7.2% annual interest compounded monthly.

A = P (1 + r)

A = 5000(1+7.2)  

Hence the function for the given compound interest will be A = 3000(1+6/4)  and A = 5000(1+7.2)  .

A 99% confidence interval for an IQ test conducted for a sample of 101 sixth graders, where the sample mean was 104.2, with a standard deviation of 12 is 104.2 ± 3.076.

A 99% confidence interval can be calculated using the formula:

sample mean ± (critical value) x (standard deviation of the mean/ √(sample size))

[tex]sample\ mean\± (critical\ value) ( \frac{standard\ deviation\ of\ the\ mean}{\sqrt{sample\ size} } )[/tex]

To find the critical value, we can use the standard normal distribution table. For a 99% confidence interval, the critical value for a two-tailed test is approximately 2.576.

So, for this problem where sample mean = 104.2 and standard deviation of mean = 12, the 99% confidence interval would be:

104.2 ± 2.576 x (12 / √101)

≈ 104.2 ± 3.076

The standard deviation of the mean is the standard deviation of the sample divided by the square root of the sample size.

This gives us a range of approximately (101.124, 107.276). So we can say that there is a 99% probability that the true population mean IQ score of sixth graders is between 101.122 and 107.276.
