The length of line segment bc is 3 cm. Thus, the correct option is B.

<h3>What is a perimeter?</h3>

Perimeter is the sum of the length of the sides used to make the given figure.

Since ACEG is a square and the perimeter of the square is 24 cm, therefore, the length of the side of the square is 6 cm.

Now, since the circle is inscribed in the square, therefore, each side of the circle will be divided into two equal parts by the circle. Thus, the value of BC is half the length of the side of the square.

BC = AC /2 = 6cm /2 = 3 cm

Hence,  the length of line segment bc is 3 cm. Thus, the correct option is B.

A population has a mean µ = 6 and ∑x = 48. How many scores are in the population?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the formula for the population mean of a data set:

\mu=\frac{\sum x}{N}

We already know that μ is 6 and the sum is 48. Substitute:

6=\frac{48}{N}

Divide both sides by 48:

\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{N}

Reciprocal of both sides:

N=8

Thus, there are 8 scores in the population size.

And we're done!
