Which of the following functions has order 2 rotational symmetry about the same origin?

Answers

The answer is "Option B", and the further explanation can be defined as follows:

A rectangle is symmetrical in 2 ways. In particular, it has two-order rotational symmetry (RS2).If an object rotates 360 degrees, it's an ordering of symmetrical is the number of times it appears to be the same.There are three levels of matching: Order 2 if only two times, Order 3 if three matches are made, and so forth.

The wrong choice can be defined as follows:

In option a and c, both are wrong because it has no rotational symmetry.In option d, it is wrong because it downs the diagram on the negative (x,y) axis.

Therefore, "Option B" is correct and its diagram is defined in the attached file.

Answers

Answer:

27 by 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides be x and y. The problem is essentially asking:

Given 2(x+y)=108, maximize xy.

We know that x+y=54. By the Arithmetic Mean - Geometric Mean inequality, we can see that [tex]\frac{x+y}{2} \ge \sqrt{xy[/tex]. Substituting in x+y=54, we get [tex]27\ge\sqrt{xy}[/tex], meaning that [tex]729 \ge xy[/tex]. Equality will only be obtained when x=y (in this case it will generate the maximum for xy), so setting x = y, we can see that x = y = 27. Hence, 27 is the answer you are looking for.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x \approx 1.9}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find x, a missing side in a triangle.

This is a right triangle because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use right triangle trigonometry. The three main functions are:

sinθ= opposite/hypotenuse cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse tanθ= opposite/adjacent

Examine the triangle. We will use angle S, measuring 54 degrees, for theta. Side QR, measuring x, is opposite angle S. Side QS, measuring 2.3, is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle. Since we have the opposite and hypotenuse, we will use sine.

[tex]sin \theta = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

θ= 54opposite= x hypotenuse = 2.3

[tex]sin (54)= \frac{ x}{2.3}[/tex]

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 The inverse operation of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 2.3

[tex]2.3* sin (54)= \frac{x}{2.3}*2.3[/tex]

[tex]2.3* sin (54)=x[/tex]

[tex]2.3*0.8090169944=x[/tex]

[tex]1.860739087 =x[/tex]

The scores of a high school entrance exam are approximately normally distributed with a given mean Mu = 82.4 and standard deviation Sigma = 3.3. What percentage of the scores are between 75.8 and 89?

Answers

Notice that

75.8 = 82.4 - 6.6 = 82.4 - 2 × 3.3

89 = 82.4 + 6.6 = 82.4 + 2 × 3.3

Then the percentage of students with scores between 75.8 and 89 make up the part of the distribution that lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The empirical (68-95-99.7) rule says that approximately 95% of any distribution lies within this range.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "0.7289".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Mean,

[tex]\mu = 15.5[/tex]

Standard deviation,

[tex]\sigma = 3.6[/tex]

As we know,

⇒ [tex]z = \frac{(x - \mu)}{\sigma}[/tex]

The probability will be:

⇒ [tex]P(11< x< 19) = P(\frac{11-15.5}{3.6} <z<\frac{19-15.5}{3.6})[/tex]

                             [tex]=P(z< 0.9722)-P(z< -1.25)[/tex]

By using the z table, we get

                             [tex]=0.8345-0.1056[/tex]

                             [tex]=0.7289[/tex]

Determine whether each of the following is a proposition. If so, write its negation. You may use symbols to help organize your thinking, but each negation should be given in plain English. a. All dogs go to heaven. b. Do you have a Nintendo Switch or a PlayStation 5

Answers

Answer:

a). Not a proposition

b). Proposition

Step-by-step explanation:

A statement or a proposition is defined as a statement which is known to be true or it is known to be false. But a proposition cannot be both false and true.

If the sentence is not known to be true or false then the sentence is not considered to be a proposition or a statement.

a). All dogs go to heaven.

We do not have any idea that whether all dogs go to heaven or not. Since we do not know whether the sentence is true or false, hence it is not a proposition or a statement.

b). Do you have a Nintendo Switch or a PlayStation 5

In this sentence, I can have either a Nintendo Switch or a PlayStation 5. So the sentence can be either true or false. Since we know the sentence is can be either true or can be false, thus it is a proposition.

Answers

Answer:

0.5145

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is also known as average. It is expressed as:

Mean  = Sum of data/Sample size

Sum of data = 0.33+0.33+0.54+0.46+0.30+0.77+0.42+0.44+0.60+0.32+0.47+0.64+0.61+0.69+0.41+0.39+0.66+0.60+0.61+0.70

Sum of data = 10.29

Sample size = 20

Mean = 10.29/20

Mean = 0.5145

Hence the mean of the data is 0.5145

The average breaking strength of a certain brand of steel cable is 2000 pounds, with a standard deviation of 100 pounds. A sample of 20 cables is selected and tested. Find the sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population. Assume the variable is normally distributed.

Answers

Answer:

The sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population is of 1963.2 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

The average breaking strength of a certain brand of steel cable is 2000 pounds, with a standard deviation of 100 pounds.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2000, \sigma = 100[/tex]

A sample of 20 cables is selected and tested.

This means that [tex]n = 20, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{20}} = 22.361[/tex]

Find the sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population.

This is the 100 - 95 = 5th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.05, so X when Z = -1.645. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]-1.645 = \frac{X - 2000}{22.361}[/tex]

[tex]X - 2000 = -1.645*22.361[/tex]

[tex]X = 1963.2[/tex]

The sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population is of 1963.2 pounds.

Simple enough, I suppose. I cannot recall which particular Superman comic book I read, nor can I remember which villain he fought in that issue.

What I can remember is this: I was 3 years old, a Spokane Indian boy living with his family on the Spokane Indian Reservation in eastern Washington state. We were poor by most standards, but one of my parents usually managed to find some minimum-wage job or another, which made us middle-class by reservation standards. I had a brother and three sisters. We lived on a combination of irregular paychecks, hope, fear and government surplus food.My father, who is one of the few Indians who went to Catholic school on purpose, was an avid reader of westerns, spy thrillers, murder mysteries, gangster epics, basketball player biographies and anything else he could find. He bought his books by the pound at Dutch's Pawn Shop, Goodwill, Salvation Army and Value Village. When he had extra money, he bought new novels at supermarkets, convenience stores and hospital gift shops. Our house was filled with books. They were stacked in crazy piles in the bathroom, bedrooms and living room. In a fit of unemployment-inspired creative energy, my father built a set of bookshelves and soon filled them with a random assortment of books about the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, the Vietnam War and the entire 23-book series of the Apache westerns.
