Answer:

The scale factor is $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes the figures are similar to each other. The ratio of their linear measurements is in uniform ration

The ration of radius of large cylinder (R) to that of the smaller cylinder (r) is

$\frac{18}{12} \\\frac{3}{2}$

Like wise the ration of height of large cylinder (H) to that of the smaller cylinder (h) is

$\frac{30}{20} \\\frac{3}{2}$

The scale factor is $\frac{3}{2}$

What is the next step in this construction?

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The correct answer option is B. Construct a line perpendicular to XP through point A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an incomplete figure of construction of a perpendicular line and we are to determine whether which of the given answer options is the next step in the construction.

From the given marks, we can deduce that a perpendicular line to XY is being constructed, passing through P.

So the next step must be to construct a line perpendicular to XP through point A to complete the construction.

Assume that the weights of spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia river are normally distributed. You randomly catch and weigh

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: The point estimate for the mean weight of all spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia River is the mean weight from your sample $(\overline{x})$ = 31.2 pounds .

Step-by-step explanation:

The weights of spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia river are normally distributed.

Given : The mean weight from your sample is 31.2 pounds with a standard deviation of 4.4 pounds.

The point estimate for the mean $(\mu)$ weight of all spawning Chinook salmon in the Columbia River is the mean weight from your sample $(\overline{x})$ i.e. is 31.2 pounds because the best point estimate for population mean is the sample mean. [in normal distribution]
