Answer:

D. Open the compass so that the distance from the two points of the compass is wider than half the length of \over{AB}.

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct a perpendicular for \over{AB}, we must first take a compass & take the distance of its arms wider than half the length of \over{AB}.

This is done in order to get two intersecting arcs in the top & bottom of \over{AB} so that a perpendicular bisector can be drawn through it.

After two intersecting lines are drawn below & above \over{AB}, draw a line joining these 2 points through their points of intersection. The point where it intersects \over{AB} is the middle-most point of \over{AB} & now a perpendicular bisector of \over{AB} is constructed.

A study conducted on 40,000 words in the English language found that about 6,670 words started with the letter T, which is the m
melisa1 [442]

To answer this problem, first let us calculate for the theoretical probability obtained from the study conducted:

Theoretical Probability = 6,670 / 40,000

Theoretical Probability = 0.16675 = 0.17

From the given choices, the list of words which can give this similar amount of probability is:

“to, sarcastic, epithet, for, less, corruptible, than, the, offspring, open, any, primary, loyalty, table, out, whom, example, who, mention, say”

In this set of words, the number of words starting with letter T is 4. Calculating for the probability of getting a word starting with T in this set is:

Sample probability = 4 / 20

A bicycle wheel has a circumference of 62 inches. Find the diameter of the wheel. If necessary, round to the tenths place. A. 39
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The answer to your question is        diameter  = 19.7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Circumference = 62 in

diameter = ?

Process

1.- Write the formula of Circumference, remember that circumference = perimeter.

    Perimeter = 2πr

2.- Equal the equation to the value given

                        2πr = 62

-Solve it for r

                            r = 62/2(3.14)

-Result

                           r = 62/6.28

                           r = 9.87 in

3.- Find the diameter

             diameter = 2r

             diameter = 2(9.87)

             diameter  = 19.7 in
