Find the measures of the numbered angles in the isosceles trapezoid.<br> I need help ASP

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

∠1 = 50°

∠2 = ∠3 = 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles trapezoid, such as this one, the angles at either end of a base are congruent:

∠1 ≅ 50°

∠2 ≅ ∠3

The theorems applicable to transversals and parallel lines also apply to the sides joining the parallel bases. In particular, "consecutive interior angles are supplementary." That is, angles 1 and 2 are supplementary, for example.

∠2 = 180° -∠1 = 180° -50° = 130°

We already know angle 3 is congruent to this.

∠1 = 50°

∠2 = ∠3 = 130°

<em>Additional comment</em>

It can be easier to see the congruence of the base angles if you remove the length of the shorter base from both bases. This collapses the figure to an isosceles triangle and makes it obvious that the base angles are congruent.

Alternatively, you can drop an altitude to the longer base from each end of the shorter base. That will create two congruent right triangles at either end of the figure. Those will have congruent corresponding angles.

Divide $150 into the ratio 2:5:3

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$30, $75, $45

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation, where x is an unknown value:

2x+5x+3x=150

10x = 150

x=15

Now that we know what x is, we can plug x in to solve for 2x, 5x, and 3x:

2x=2*15=30

5x=5*15=75

3x=3*15=45

Therefore, the answer is $30, $75, $45

(10 points)Assume IQs of adults in a certain country are normally distributed with mean 100 and SD 15. Suppose a president, vice

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

0.0139 = 1.39% probability that the president will have an IQ of at least 107.5 and that at least one of the other two leaders (vice president and/or secretary of state) will have an IQ of at least 130.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to use the binomial and the normal probability distributions.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Normal Probability Distribution:

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

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

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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.

Probability the president will have an IQ of at least 107.5

IQs of adults in a certain country are normally distributed with mean 100 and SD 15, which means that $\mu = 100, \sigma = 15$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 107.5. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{107.5 - 100}{15}$

$Z = 0.5$

$Z = 0.5$ has a p-value of 0.6915.

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085

0.3085 probability that the president will have an IQ of at least 107.5.

Probability that at least one of the other two leaders (vice president and/or secretary of state) will have an IQ of at least 130.

First, we find the probability of a single person having an IQ of at least 130, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 130. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{130 - 100}{15}$

$Z = 2$

$Z = 2$ has a p-value of 0.9772.

1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228.

Now, we find the probability of at least one person, from a set of 2, having an IQ of at least 130, which is found using the binomial distribution, with p = 0.0228 and n = 2, and we want:

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.9772)^{2}.(0.0228)^{0} = 0.9549$

$P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 0.0451$

0.0451 probability that at least one of the other two leaders (vice president and/or secretary of state) will have an IQ of at least 130.

What is the probability that the president will have an IQ of at least 107.5 and that at least one of the other two leaders (vice president and/or secretary of state) will have an IQ of at least 130?

0.3085 probability that the president will have an IQ of at least 107.5.

0.0451 probability that at least one of the other two leaders (vice president and/or secretary of state) will have an IQ of at least 130.

Independent events, so we multiply the probabilities.

0.3082*0.0451 = 0.0139

0.0139 = 1.39% probability that the president will have an IQ of at least 107.5 and that at least one of the other two leaders (vice president and/or secretary of state) will have an IQ of at least 130.

How many times is 5 x 10^6 larger than 5 x 10^4

gayaneshka [121]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

By <em>100 times</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time something is in Scientific Notation, to every power of 10 something is multiplied by, it grows by 10 times.

By knowing that, if both equations use the same starting number, you can minus the notation section from the larger value, to find the answer.

10^6 - 10^4 = 10^2 ---> 100 times.

Hope that helps, :)

What are the coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices D(0,1),E(2,6), and F(7,2) enter your answer in the boxes

Daniel [21]

The coordinates of centroid of given triangle are: (3,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

D(0,1) = (x1,y1)

E(2,6) = (x2,y2)

F(7,2) = (x3,y3)

The centroid of a triangle when the vertices are known is given by:

$C = (\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3} , \frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

Putting the values

$C = (\frac{0+2+7}{3} , \frac{1+6+2}{3})\\C = (\frac{9}{3} , \frac{9}{3})\\= (3,3)$

Hence,

The coordinates of centroid of given triangle are: (3,3)
