Applying the angle of intersecting chords theorem, the value of z is: D. 100.

<h3>What is the Angle of Intersecting Chords Theorem?</h3>

According to the angle of intersecting chords theorem, in a circle like the one shown in the image above, where two chords intersect to form vertical angles, the theorem states that the angle formed equals half of the sum of the measures of the arcs intercepted by the angles.

Applying the angle of intersecting chords theorem, let's find x first:

73 = 1/2(96 + x)

Multiply both sides by 2

2 × (73) = 1/2(96 + x) × 2

146 = 96 + x

Subtract both sides by 96

146 - 96 = 96 + x - 96

50 = x

x = 50°

Therefore:

x + z + 96 + 114 = 360° [full circle measure]

Plug in the value of x

50 + z + 96 + 114 = 360

z + 260 = 360

Subtract both sides by 260

z + 260 - 260 = 360 - 260

z = 100°

The answer is: D. 100°.

Jet001 [13]

because 4x+20y=-36,so ( 4x+20y)/2=2x+10y=-18

(2x+10y)-(2x+5y)=-18-18

5y=-36

then y=-7.2

because 2x=18-5y

so x=(18-5y)/2=(18-5*(-7.2)）/2=27

A courier service company wishes to estimate the proportion of people in various states that will use its services. Suppose the

Orlov [11]

Answer:

95.44% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by less than 0.03.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

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

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

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
