a. altitude = CE

b. bisector = BD

c. exterior angle = ∠ABE

d. median = CF

e. remote interior angles = ∠BCE and ∠CEB

<h3>Geometry </h3>

From the question, we are to fill in the blanks

In ΔBCE, we have that ∠BCE is a right angle

Thus,

a. altitude = CE

Also, we have that

∠EBD ≅ ∠CBD

Thus, BD is a bisector

b. bisector = BD

The exterior angle of the triangle is ∠ABE

c. exterior angle = ∠ABE

From the given information,

BF ≅ EF

∴ F is the midpoint of BE

NOTE: Median is a line segment joining the vertex of one side of the triangle to the midpoint of its opposite side.

The median of the triangle is CF

d. median = CF

The remote interior angles of the triangle are ∠BCE and ∠CEB

e. remote interior angles = ∠BCE and ∠CEB

Hence,

a. altitude = CE

b. bisector = BD

c. exterior angle = ∠ABE

d. median = CF

e. remote interior angles = ∠BCE and ∠CEB

A group of three undergraduate and five graduate students are available to fill certain student government posts. If four studen

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

$Pr = 0.4286$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

$U \to\\$ Undergraduates

$G \to$ Graduates

So, we have:

$U = 3; G =5$ -- Total students

$r = 4$ --- students to select

Required

$P(U =2)$

From the question, we understand that 2 undergraduates are to be selected; This means that 2 graduates are to be selected.

First, we calculate the total possible selection (using combination)

$^nC_r = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}$

So, we have:

$Total = ^{U + G}C_r$

$Total = ^{3 + 5}C_4$

$Total = ^8C_4$

$Total = \frac{8!}{(8-4)!4!}$

$Total = \frac{8!}{4!4!}$

Using a calculator, we have:

$Total = 70$

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 3 undergraduates is:

$U = ^3C_2$

$U = \frac{3!}{(3-2)!2!}$

$U = \frac{3!}{1!2!}$

$U = 3$

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 5 graduates is:

$G = ^5C_2$

$G = \frac{5!}{(5-2)!2!}$

$G = \frac{5!}{3!2!}$

$G =10$

So, the probability is:

$Pr = \frac{G * U}{Total}$

$Pr = \frac{10*3}{70}$

$Pr = \frac{30}{70}$

$Pr = 0.4286$

Solve the equation for the indicated variable. 1. y= 3/8 (x+4) for x

madam [21]

Answer:

x=8y/3-4

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have to do to solve for X into re arrange the equation so that X is by itself on one side of the equation. To start we will divide both sides by 3/8 to move it away from the X side and we get

8y/3=x+4 then we will subtract both sides by 4 to get x all by itself

8y/3-4=x

I hope this helps and please don't hesitate to ask if there is anything still unclear!

You are given the information that P(A) = 0.30 and P(B) = 0.40.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

1.B. No. You need to know the value of P(A and B). 2.C. Yes P(A and B) =0, so P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B).

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question considering the following:

For two mutually exclusive events:

$\\ A_{1}\;and\;A_{2}$

$\\ P(A_{1} or A_{2}) = P(A_{1}) + P(A_{2})$ (1)

An extension of the former expression is:

$\\ P(A_{1} or A_{2}) = P(A_{1}) + P(A_{2}) - P(A_{1} and A_{2})$ (2)

In mutually exclusive events, P(A and B) = 0, that is, the events are independent one of the other, and we know the probability that both events happen at the same time is zero (P(A and B) = 0). There are some other cases in which if event A happens, event B too, so they are not mutually exclusive because P(A and B) is some number different from zero. Notice the difference between OR and AND. The latter implies that both events happen at the same time.

In other words, notice that the formula (2) provides an extension of formula (1) for those events that are not mutually exclusive, that is, there are some cases in which the events share the same probabilities in a way that these probabilities must be subtracted from the total, so those probabilities in common do not "inflate" the actual probability.

For instance, imagine a person going to a gas station and ask for checking both a tire and lube oil of his/her car. The probability for checking a tire is P(A)=0.16, for checking lube oil is P(B)=0.30, and for both P(A and B) = 0.07.

The number 0.07 represents the probability that both events occur at the same time, so the probability that this person ask for checking a tire or the lube oil of his/her car is:

P(A or B) = 0.16 + 0.30 - 0.07 = 0.39.

That is why we cannot simply add some given probabilities without acknowledging if the events are or not mutually exclusive, whereas we can certainly add the probabilities in question when we know that both probabilities are mutually exclusive since P(A and B) = 0.

In conclusion, knowing the events are mutually exclusive does provide extra information and we can proceed to simply add the probabilities of either event; thus, the answers are those in which we need to previously know the value of P(A and B).
