Compare the coordinates of corresponding vertices.
C(7, - 2 ) → C'(- 3, 7 )
x- direction 7 → - 3 , that is - 10 of a shift
y- direction - 2 → 7, that is + 9 of a shift
Thus the translation rule is
(x, y ) → (x - 10, y + 9 )
In politics, marketing, etc. We often want to estimate a percentage or proportion p. One calculation in statistical polling is the margin of error - the largest (reasonble) error that the poll could have. For example, a poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (72% minus 4% to 72% plus 4%). In a (made-up) poll, the proportion of people who like dark chocolate more than milk chocolate was 32% with a margin of error of 2.2%. Describe the conclusion about p using an absolute value inequality.
Answer: |p-72% |≤ 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p be the population proportion.
The absolute inequality about p using an absolute value inequality.:
[tex]|p-\hat{p}| \leq E[/tex] , where E = margin of error, [tex]\hat{p}[/tex] = sample proportion
Given: A poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% .
|p-72% |≤ 4%
⇒ 72% - 4% ≤ p ≤ 72% +4%
⇒ 68% ≤ p ≤ 76%.
i.e. p is most likely to be between 68% and 76% (.
The conclusion about p using an absolute value inequality is in the range of 29.8% to 34.2%.
What is absolute value inequality?An expression using absolute functions and inequality signs is known as an absolute value inequality.
We know that the absolute value inequality about p using an absolute value inequality is written as,
[tex]|p-\hat p| \leq E[/tex]
where E is the margin of error and [tex]\hat p[/tex] is the sample proportion.
Now, it is given that the poll result of 72% with a margin of error of 4% indicates that p is most likely to be between 68% and 76%. Therefore, p can be written as,
[tex]|p-0.72|\leq 0.04\\\\(0.72-0.04)\leq p \leq (0.72+0.04)\\\\0.68 \leq p\leq 0.76[/tex]
Thus, the p is most likely to be between the range of 68% to 76%.
Similarly, the proportion of people who like dark chocolate more than milk chocolate was 32% with a margin of error of 2.2%. Therefore, p can be written as,
[tex]|p-\hat p|\leq E\\\\|p-0.32|\leq 0.022\\\\(0.32-0.022)\leq p \leq (0.32+0.022)\\\\0.298\leq p\leq 0.342[/tex]
Thus, the p is most likely to be between the range of 29.8% to 34.2%.
Hence, the conclusion about p using an absolute value inequality is in the range of 29.8% to 34.2%.

Jenny had a wardrobe full of 35 different shirts. In order to make more space in her closet, she got rid of 9 of them. What is a reasonable
estimate for the percentage of shirts Jenny got rid of?
There is no one set answer because there are many ways to estimate here.
35 rounds to 40
9 rounds to 10
She got rid of 10 shirts out of 40, so 10/40 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25% is the estimated percentage of shirts she got rid of. This is one possible estimate.
Using a calculator, the actual percentage is 9/35 = 0.2571 = 25.71% approximately. So our estimate isn't too bad. Our estimate is an underestimate.

The sum that we have is 85 +99
We want to express it as the product of a whole number thar is greater than 1 and a sum of two whole numbers.
Notice that: 85 = 84+1
● 85 + 99 = 84 + 1 + 99 = 84 + 100
84 and 100 are even numbers so we can factor using 2.
● 84 + 100 = 2(42 +50)
2 is greater than one and 42+50 is the sum of two whole numbers so all the conditions are satisfied.

Dasha go on business trips every 9 months while Charlie go every 6 months.
They came back at the same time.
So Charlie has to wait 6 months before going and Dasha nine months.
Dasha will be alone home for 3 months so she doesn't need to hire someone.
Here is what happens:
● Both Dasha and Charlie are home.
● After 6 months Charlie go and Dasha is at home
● after 3 months Dasha goes also and Charlie is home
● after 3 months charlie go and Dasha is home
● after 3 months both are home.
● aftet 3 months they both go
So the period is:
● 6+3+3+3+3 = 18
So after 18 months they should hire someone.

Find a49 of the sequence 70,63,56,49,…. A. -63 B. -266 C. -273 D. -243
Answer:
(B) -266
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to find the nth term in a sequence is:
[tex]x_{n} = a + d(n-1)[/tex], where a is the first term and n is the "difference."
Looking at this equation, we can see that the number decreases by 7 each time and the first term is 70.
So:
[tex]x_n = 70 + -7(n-1)[/tex]
Solve for the equation:
[tex]x_n = 70 + -7n+7\\x_n = -7n+77[/tex]
Since we want to find the 49th term:
[tex]x_9 = -7(49) + 77\\x_9 = -343+77\\x_9 = -266[/tex]

Using properties of sets show that : a) A ∩ (A’ U B) = A ∩ B b) A ∩ (A U B )’ = Ф
Answer:
a) From A ∩ A' = ∅, we have;
A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = A ∩ B
b) From A ∩ (A' ∩ B') = (A ∩ A') ∩ B' and A ∩ A' = ∅, we have;
A ∩ (A ∪ B)' = ∅
Step-by-step explanation:
a) By distributive law of sets, we have;
A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)
From the complementary law of sets, we have;
A ∩ A' = ∅
Therefore, for A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = A ∩ B, we have
A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = (A ∩ A') ∪ (A ∩ B) (distributive law of sets)
A ∩ A' = ∅ (complementary law of sets)
Therefore;
(A ∩ A') ∪ (A ∩ B) = ∅ ∪ (A ∩ B) = (A ∩ B) (Addition to zero identity property)
∴ A ∩ (A' ∪ B) = A ∩ B
b) By De Morgan's law
(A ∪ B)' = A' ∩ B'
Therefore, A ∩ (A ∪ B)' = A ∩ (A' ∩ B')
By associative law of sets, we have;
A ∩ (A' ∩ B') = (A ∩ A') ∩ B'
A ∩ A' = ∅ (complementary law of sets)
Therefore, (A ∩ A') ∩ B' = ∅ ∩ B' = ∅
Which gives;
A ∩ (A ∪ B)' = ∅.

Answer:
D. 860 square inches
Answer:
D: 860 square inches
Step 1.
Remember:
w = 8
x = 5
y = 20
z = 11.3
Let's start with the bottom rectangular prism. The front and back of it is x * x
(5 * 5), so the from and back is 25 + 25 = 50.
The three long sides are x * y (5*20), so the three long rectangles are 100 * 3 = 300. The bottom shape is 350 in total.
Step 2.
The top two rectangles are w * y, (8 * 20) so the two top rectangles are 160 * 2 = 320.
The triangles are w * w / 2 (8 * 8/2) (64 / 2) (32), so the two triangles are 64.
We subtract x from z to get 6.3.
Then, we multiply 6.3 by 20. We get 126. Finally, we add all the values together to get our final answer.
350 + 384+126 = 860
Our answer is D: 860.

Step-by-step explanation:
The following are congruent to each other as each pair are tangents of a circle drawn from the same external point:
PQ = QJ = 1
JK = KL = 4 - 1 = 3
MN = ML
Thus, ML = KM - KL
ML = 6 - 3 = 3
Therefore, MN = ML = 3 (both are tangents drawn from the same external point, M.

The area of triangle ABC is 10 cm²
Calculate the perimeter of triangle ABC.
Give your answer correct to three significant figures.
Answer:
Therefore, perimeter of the given triangle is 18.300 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the triangle ABC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{AB})(\text{BC})(\text{SinB})[/tex]
10 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(3.2)(8.4)(\text{SinB})[/tex]
Sin(B) = [tex]\frac{10}{3.2\times 4.2}[/tex]
B = [tex]\text{Sin}^{-1}(0.74405)[/tex]
B = 48.08°
By applying Cosine rule in the given triangle,
(AC)² = (AB)² + (BC)²-2(AB)(BC)CosB
(AC)² = (3.2)² + (8.4)² - 2(3.2)(8.4)Cos(48.08)°
(AC)² = 10.24 + 70.56 - 35.9166
(AC)² = 44.88
AC = [tex]\sqrt{44.8833}[/tex]
AC = 6.6995 cm
Perimeter of the ΔABC = m(AB) + m(BC) + m(AC)
= 3.200 + 8.400 + 6.6995
= 18.2995
≈ 18.300 cm
Therefore, perimeter of the given triangle is 18.300 cm
A function of random variables used to estimate a parameter of a distribution is a/an _____.
A. unbiased estimator
B. statistic
C. predictor
D. sample value
Answer:
A. unbiased estimator.
Step-by-step explanation:
In Statistics, an estimator is a statistical value which is used to estimate a parameter. Parameters are the determinants of the probability distribution. Therefore, to determine a normal distribution we would use the parameters, mean and variance of the population.
A function of random variables used to estimate a parameter of a distribution is an unbiased estimator.
An unbiased estimator is one in which the difference between the estimator and the population parameter grows smaller as the sample size grows larger. This simply means that, an unbiased estimator captures the true population value of the parameter on average, this is because the mean of its sampling distribution is the truth.
Also, we know that the bias of an estimator (b) that estimates a parameter (p) is given by; [tex]E(b) - p[/tex]
Hence, an unbiased estimator is an estimator that has an expected value that is equal to the parameter i.e the value of its bias is equal to zero (0).
Generally, in statistical analysis, sample mean is an unbiased estimator of the population mean while the sample variance is an unbiased estimator of the population variance.

=> 18 : 20
=> 1 x 20 = 20
=> .6 x 20 = 12
=> 12 : 20 is not equal to 18 : 20
The second option is 100% incorrect because the number of games won is greater than the number of games played.
let's check whether the 3rd option is correct.

Each pack of cookies sells for $1, so xx packs of cookies will bring in 1x1x dollars. Each bag of chips sells for $2, so yy bags of chips will bring in 2y2y dollars. Therefore, the total amount 1x+2y1x+2y equals \$42:$42:
1x+2y=42
1x+2y=42
Since Kylie sold 3 times as many bags of chips as packs of cookies, she sold more bags of chips, so if we multiply 3 by the number of packs of cookies sold, we will get the number of bags of chips sold, meaning yy equals 3x.3x.

Step-by-step explanation:
1. Suzette ran and biked for a total of 80 miles in 9 hours. Her average running speed was 5 miles per hour (mph) and her average biking speed was 12 mph. Let x = total hours Suzette ran. Let y = total hours Suzette biked. Use substitution to solve for x and y. Show your work. Check your solution. (a) How many hours did Suzette run? (b) How many hours did she bike?
Answer:
a) Suzette ran for 4 hours
b) Suzette biked for 5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed is rate of distance traveled, it is the ratio of distance traveled to time taken. It is given by:
Speed = distance / time
The total distance ran and biked by Suzette (d) = 80 miles, while the total time ran and biked by Suzette (t) = 9 hours.
For running:
Her speed was 5 miles per hour, let the total hours Suzette ran be x and the total distance she ran be p, hence since Speed = distance / time, therefore:
5 = p / x
p = 5x
For biking:
Her speed was 12 miles per hour, let the total hours Suzette ran be y and the total distance she ran be q, hence since Speed = distance / time, therefore:
12 = q / y
q = 12y
The total distance ran and biked by Suzette (d) = Distance biked + distance ran
d = p + q
80 = p + q
80 = 5x + 12y (1)
The total time taken to run and bike by Suzette (t) = time spent to bike + time spent to run
t = x + y
9 = x + y (2)
Solving equation 1 and equation 2, multiply equation 2 by 5 and subtract from equation 1:
7y = 35
y = 35/7
y = 5 hours
Put y = 5 in equation 2:
9 = x + 5
x = 9 -5
x = 4 hours
a) Suzette ran for 4 hours
b) Suzette biked for 5 hours
