Answer:

a. x = 24

b. x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given a right triangle, so use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 18^2 = 30^2

x^2 + 324 = 900

x^2 = 576

x = 24

The sum of the measures of all angles is 360 degrees.

x + 2x + 2x + 20 + 3x + 20 = 360

8x + 40 = 360

8x = 320

x = 40

In the diagram, the measures of angle 3 and angle 6 are 50 degrees. The measure of angle 5 is 130 degrees. Are lines c and d par

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 3 and 6 are "alternate interior" angles. When those angles are congruent, as these are, then the lines crossed by the transversal are parallel.

We expect angles 5 and 6 to be supplementary because they are a linear pair. That fact says nothing about the relationship of line d to line c.

Suppose that two openings on an appellate court bench are to be filled from current municipal court judges. The municipal court

Ksju [112]

Answer:

$(a)\dfrac{92}{117}$

$(b)\dfrac{8}{39}$

$(c)\dfrac{25}{117}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Men, n(M)=24

Number of Women, n(W)=3

Total Sample, n(S)=24+3=27

Since you cannot appoint the same person twice, the probabilities are <u>without replacement.</u>

(a)Probability that both appointees are men.

$P(MM)=\dfrac{24}{27}X \dfrac{23}{26}=\dfrac{552}{702}\\=\dfrac{92}{117}$

(b)Probability that one man and one woman are appointed.

To find the probability that one man and one woman are appointed, this could happen in two ways.

A man is appointed first and a woman is appointed next.
A woman is appointed first and a man is appointed next.

P(One man and one woman are appointed) $=P(MW)+P(WM)$

$=(\dfrac{24}{27}X \dfrac{3}{26})+(\dfrac{3}{27}X \dfrac{24}{26})\\=\dfrac{72}{702}+\dfrac{72}{702}\\=\dfrac{144}{702}\\=\dfrac{8}{39}$

(c)Probability that at least one woman is appointed.

The probability that at least one woman is appointed can occur in three ways.

A man is appointed first and a woman is appointed next.
A woman is appointed first and a man is appointed next.
Two women are appointed

P(at least one woman is appointed) $=P(MW)+P(WM)+P(WW)$

$P(WW)=\dfrac{3}{27}X \dfrac{2}{26}=\dfrac{6}{702}$

In Part B, $P(MW)+P(WM)=\frac{8}{39}$

Therefore:

$P(MW)+P(WM)+P(WW)=\dfrac{8}{39}+\dfrac{6}{702}\\$P(at least one woman is appointed)=\dfrac{25}{117}$

What is the general term equation, an, for the arithmetic sequence 9, 5, 1, −3, . . . , and what is the 21st term of this sequen

marin [14]

Hello :
<span>the general term equation, an, for the arithmetic sequence is :
An = A1+d(n-1)
A1 : the first term and : d the common diference
in this exercice :
A1 = 9
d =(-3)-(1) =(1)-(5) =(5) -(9) = -4
An = 9-4(n-1)
An = -4n +13</span>
