The image of of (0,-4) After the dilation by the scale factor of 2 at the center is (0,-8)

What is the scale factor?

A scale factor is Scaling the shape of an object. it means the shape of the object remains the same but the size of the object is either increased or decreased. A scale factor greater than 1 means size is increased and less than one means size is decreased

We are given a point (0,-4)

Which is to be scaled by the factor of 2 at the center position

As the value is greater than 1 the size increase

We multiply the coordinate to find the new coordinates

We get (0,-8)

Hence, The image of of (0,-4) After the dilation by the scale factor of 2 at the center is (0,-8)

Jarrod needs to walk 1 mile to reach the swimming pool

Given that: He lives 2 3/4 miles from the swimming pool

He walked 7/8 mile to the library

Then he walked 7/8 mile to the museum

The concept we need here is the addition or subtraction of fractions

To determine the miles left, we need to subtract the miles he walked from the miles 2 3/4 miles (since that is the distance from where he lives to the swimming pool)

Thus:

Miles left = 2 3/4 - 7/8 - 7/8

              = 11/4 - 7/8 -7/8              (Note:   2 3/4 = 11/4)

Answer: There is no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The formatting of the question isn't clear, but I'll still explore both possibilities. If the square root is only applied to x, we can solve for the variable by adding 4 to both sides and then squaring both sides, which would give us 4. Since that is not an answer choice, it means the square root applies to x-4. With this problem, we square both sides right away. That gives us x=0, but plug 0 back into the original equation. Doing so gives us the square root of -4, which is not possible with real numbers, only with imaginary numbers.

Explanation:

The equation y = 3x-1 is in slope-intercept form y = mx+b

Parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts.

The answer will also have a slope of m = 3.

Plug that slope value, and the coordinates of the given point [tex](x_1,y_1) = (1,5)[/tex] , into the point-slope formula below.

Solve for y.

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - 5 = 3(x - 1)\\\\y - 5 = 3x - 3\\\\y = 3x - 3+5\\\\y = 3x + 2\\\\[/tex]

That's how we arrive at the answer of y = 3x+2

As a check, plugging x = 1 into that answer should get us y = 5.

It confirms that the point (1,5) is on this line.

The statement that shows the correct relationship between production cost and the number of golf balls produced is that the minimum production cost of 17.5 occurs when 35 golf balls are produced.

A quadratic equation is the second-order degree algebraic expression in a variable. the standard form of this expression is  ax² + bx + c = 0 where a. b are coefficients and x is the variable and c is a constant.

Then the minimum is represented by the formula;

c - b² / 4a

We have given equation C(x) = 0.1x² - 7x + 140

a = 0.1

b = -7

c = 140

Now plugging in values to c - b² / 2a

= 140 - 7² / (4 * 0.1)

=  17.5

The minimum production cost will be; 17.5

Now plugging 35 into the given equation;

C(x) = 0.1x² - 7x + 140

C(x) = 0.1 ( 35)² - 7 (35) + 140

C(x) = 17.5

Therefore, 35 golf balls produce the minimum cost.

b) The manufacturer's claim is not correct, as 78 is not a part of the interval.

c) A sample of 55 employees is needed to achieve the desired margin of error.

The bounds of the t-distribution confidence interval, used when only the standard deviation for the sample is known, are given by the equation presented as follows:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

The variables of the equation are presented as follows:

The critical value, considering the 95% confidence level and 12 - 1 = 11 df, is of:

t = 2.201.

The remaining parameters, namely sample mean, sample standard deviation and sample size are given as follows:

[tex]\overline{x} = 74.3, s = 4.52, n = 12[/tex]

(obtained using a calculator from the sample given in this problem).

The bounds of the interval are given as follows:

The interval does not contain the number 78, hence it is not a good estimate for the mean amount.

For item c, the z-distribution is used, as the population standard deviation is used, hence the minimum sample size is obtained as follows:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1.04 = 1.96\frac{3.91}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96 \times 3.91[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96 \times 3.91}{1.04}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96 \times 3.91}{1.04}\right)^2[/tex]

n = 55. (rounded up, as a sample size of 54 would mean that the margin of error would be slightly above 1.04).

The probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 694 Americans would differ from the population proportion by less than 3% is; 0.36%

The Central Limit Theorem states that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean μ and standard deviation σ, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean μ and standard deviation s = σ/√n

The standard deviation for proportion is given by the formula;

s = √(p(1 - p)/n)

We are given;

p = 8% = 0.08

n = 694

Thus;

s = √(0.08(1 - 0.08)/694)

s = 0.0103

Proportion above 8% + 3% = 11% or below 8% - 3% = 5%. Due to the fact that the normal distribution is symmetric, the probabilities will be equal, and as a result, we find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability the proportion is less than 5%:

P-value of Z when X = 0.05.

z = (X - μ)/s

z = (0.05 - 0.08)/0.0103

z = -2.91

From p-value from z-score calculator, we have;

p-value = 0.001807

We multiply it by 2 to get the probability

Probability = 2 * 0.001807 = 0.0036 = 0.36%

The value of y is - 0.326 when x = 7.

A ratio is a divisional comparison of two quantities, and a proportion is the equality of two ratios. A ratio is typically expressed as x: y or x/y, although it may alternatively be read as x is to y.

Comparatively speaking, a proportional equation states that two ratios are comparable. A ratio is expressed as x: y: : z: w and is understood to mean that x is to y as z is to w. Here, w and y are not equal to 0, therefore x/y Equals z/w.

A connection between two quantities is said to be in inverse proportion if one quantity rises while the other falls, and vice versa. As a result, an inverse ratio is expressed as y ∝ 1/x.

The general equation of proportion is given by

y = k/x²

-4 = k/(-2)²

The standard deviation is a statistic measure that expresses how much variance or dispersion there is in a group of numbers.

A high standard deviation suggests that the values are dispersed throughout a wider range,

A low standard deviation suggests that the values tend to be close to the established mean.

A positive value means the standard deviation is above the mean while a negative value means the standard deviation is below the mean
