Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 16| less than/equal to 4

Means x can be between;

-4+16 and 4+16, i.e [12,20]

|y - 6| less than/equal to 2

Means x can be between,

-2+6 and 2+6, i.e [4,8]

x - y would be greatest when x is greatest and y is least:

20 - 4 = 16

Complete the pairs of corresponding parts if △ABD ≅ △EFC.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

We conclude that:

∠A = ∠ FEC

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

△ABD ≅ △EFC

To determine:

∠A =

As

△ABD ≅ △EFC

So the triangles △ABD and △EFC are congruent to each other.

  • We know that congruent triangles have equal corresponding parts.

Please check the attached graph.

From the graph, it is clear that ∠A is correspondent to ∠E.

∠A = ∠E

From the attached figure, it is clear that:

∠F can also be denoted by ∠ FEC

as

∠A = ∠E

so

∠A = ∠ FEC

Therefore, we conclude that:

∠A = ∠ FEC

What is the volume of a rectangular prism length 12ft height 14ft width 17ft
NeTakaya
Answer:  <span>2,856 ft³ .</span>
_____________________
Volume of a rectangle prism = BASE AREA * height ;

The "base area" is the area of the rectangle:

(Area = length  width; or, "L * w").
_______________________________________________
So, volume of a rectangular prism = L * w * h  ;  h = height ;
_________________________________________
  V = L * w * h  = 12 ft * 17 ft. * 14 ft =  2,856 ft³

Explain how counting number of girls in five children family can be treated as a binomial experiment. What assumptions are neces
Juliette [100K]

This is a binomial experiment and you'll use the binomial probability distribution because:

  1. There are two choices for each birth. Either you get a girl or you get a boy. So there are two outcomes to each trial. This is where the "bi" comes from in "binomial" (bi means 2).
  2. Each birth is independent of any other birth. The probability of getting a girl is the same for each trial. In this case, the probability is p = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%
  3. There are fixed number of trials. In this case, there are 5 births so n = 5 is the number of trials.

Since all of those conditions above are met, this means we have a binomial experiment.

Some textbooks may split up item #2 into two parts, but I chose to place them together since they are similar ideas.
