The value of the length of BC is 45 units

<h3>How to determine the length BC?</h3>

The given parameters are:

BC = 15x

AD = 32x - 2

EF = 20.5x + 8

Where the parallel bases are AD and BC and the midsegment is EF

By the midsegment theorem, we have

2 * EF = AD + BC

Substitute the known values in the above equation

2 * (20.5x + 8) = 15x + 32x -2

Open the bracket

41x + 16 = 15x + 32x - 2

Evaluate the like terms

6x = 18

Divide both sides by 6

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 in BC = 15x

BC = 15 * 3

Evaluate

BC = 45

Hence, the value of the length of BC is 45 units

Answer:

A: Yes, As more gallons are used the longer the shower is

B: 5 minutes, 20 minutes

C: (30,10), someone who uses 30 gallons of water will be in the shower for 10 minutes

D: I'm going to assume that your teacher wants you to find the slope in which I will use the slope formula and the points (0,0) and (30,10)

(10-0)/(30-0)=1/3=.33333 which means that for every gallon of water used you will be in the shower for .33333 minutes longer

Step-by-step explanation:

A: Yes, As more gallons are used the longer the shower is

B: 5 minutes, 20 minutes

C: (30,10), someone who uses 30 gallons of water will be in the shower for 10 minutes

D: I'm going to assume that your teacher wants you to find the slope in which I will use the slope formula and the points (0,0) and (30,10)

(10-0)/(30-0)=1/3=.33333 which means that for every gallon of water used you will be in the shower for .33333 minutes longer

If the probability of rain today is 25%, what is the probability that it will not rain today?

These two events are complimentary. So P(not rain)=1-P(will rain)
So, 75% is my guess
