Answer:

x =11

Step-by-step explanation:

2 vertical angles must equal up to 180 degrees to be considered supplementary. The equation given is not supplementary because the angles add up to 168.

Answer:

A) x = 11,
B) No, the angles are not supplementary

--------------------------------------------------

<h2>Given</h2>

Vertical angles ABC and DBE,
m∠ABC = (7x + 7)° and m∠DBE = (8x − 4)°.

<h2>Part A</h2><h3>Find the value of x</h3>

Vertical angles are congruent, hence:

7x + 7 = 8x - 4
8x - 7x = 7 + 4
x = 11

<h3>Find the measure of each angle</h3>

7*11 + 7 = 84

Vertical angles are also supplementary if they are right angles. The given angles are not right angles and therefore not supplementary.

For example...
if you have a mixed fraction 1 1/2, and change it to fraction greater than one, it would be 3/2 (which is 1 or 2/2 + 1/2)

Jason would like to estimate the probability of heads coming up more than once in 3 coin flips. To do this, he has a computer ra

Umnica [9.8K]

The total number of tries = 10

The tries are { <span>110 111 100 000 101 111 100 000 011 010 }
</span><span />
Where: 0 representing heads and 1 representing tails

The tries which are heads came up more than once in 3 coin flips { 100 000 100 000 010 }

The number of the tries which are heads came up more than once in 3 coin flips = 5

∴ The probability of heads coming up more than once in 3 coin flips = 5/10 = 1/2

4 pencils and 3 crayons are 20.9 inches. 5 pencils and 4 crayons are 26.5 inches. Each pencil is the same length as the other pe

erastova [34]

Answer:

The length of the pencils is 4.1 inches and for the crayons 1.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve by means of a 2x2 system of equations, we have to:

let "x" be the length of the pencils

let "y" be the length of the crayons

4 * x + 3 * y = 20.9

5 * x + 4 * y = 26.5 => x = (26.5 - 4 * y) / 5

Replacing:

4 * (26.5 - 4 * y) / 5 + 3 * y = 20.9

21.2 - 3.2 * y + 3 * y = 20.9

-0.2 * y = 20.9 - 21.2

y = -0.3 / -0.2

y = 1.5

now for x:

x = (26.5 - 4 * 1.5) / 5

x = 4.1

This means that the length of the pencils is 4.1 inches and for the crayons 1.5 inches

We can solve this problem using the binomial distribution. A binomial distribution<span> can be thought of as a success or failure outcome in an experiment or survey that is repeated multiple times.
</span>Probability function of binomial distribution has the following form:
$P= \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} p^k(1-p)^{n-k}$
p represents the probability of each choice we want. k is the number of choices we want and n is the total number of choices.
In our case p=0.85, k=5 and n=6.
We can now calculate the answer:
$P= \frac{6!}{5!(6-5)!} 0.85^5(1-0.85)^{6-5}=0.39$
The probability is 39%.
