Kristie has taken five tests in science class. The average of all five of Kristie's test scores is 94. The average of her last t
Bingel [31]

Answer:  The average of the first two test scores is 97.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Kristie has taken five tests in science class. The average of all five of Kristie's test scores is 94 and the average of her last three test scores is 92.

We are to find the average score of her first two tests.

Let a1, a2, a3, a4 and a5 be teh scores of Kristle in first , second, third, fourth and fifth tests respectively.

Then, according to the given information, we have

\dfrac{a1+a2+a3+a4+a5}{5}=94\\\\\Rightarrow a1+a2+a3+a4+a5=94\times5\\\\\Rightarrow a1+a2+a3+a4+a5=470~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

and

\dfrac{a3+a4+a5}{3}=92\\\\\Rightarrow a3+a4+a5=92\times3\\\\\Rightarrow a3+a4+a5=276~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

Subtracting equation (ii) from equation (i), we get

(a1+a2+a3+a4+a5)-(a3+a4+a5)=470-276\\\\\Rightarrow a1+a2=194\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a1+a2}{2}=\dfrac{194}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a1+a2}{2}=97.

Thus, the average of the first two test scores is 97.

An airplane has a wingspan of 20 feet and a length of 15 feet. If the model of this airplane has a wingspan of 8 inches, what is
Katen [24]

Answer:

The length of the model is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wingspan of the airplane and length of the airplane are a ratio of 4:3

The model is also supposed to be 4:3.

4:3 x 2 = 8:6

Or, 20x12=240

240/8=30

15x12=180

180/30=6.

The measure of a vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is 120° and the length of a leg is 8 cm. Find the length of a diameter of
Goryan [66]

ANSWER

The length of a Diameter is 3.714

EXPLANATION

The circumscribed triangle is shown in the attachment.

We use the cosine ratio to find the altitude of the isosceles triangle.

\cos(60 \degree)  =  \frac{altitude}{hypotenuse}

\cos(60 \degree)  =  \frac{altitude}{8}

Altitude =8cos(60°)

Altitude=4cm

Let the upper half of the altitude be y cm.

Then the radius of the circle is (y-4)cm

The upper radius meets the tangent at right angles.

From the smaller right triangle,

\sin(60 \degree)  =  \frac{4 - y}{y}

y\sin(60 \degree)  = 4 - y

y\sin(60 \degree)   + y= 4

(\sin(60 \degree)   + 1)y= 4

y=  \frac{4}{\sin(60 \degree)   + 1}

y = 16 - 8 \sqrt{3}

y=1.857

The diameter is 2y

d = 32 - 16 \sqrt{3}

=2(1.875)

The length of a Diameter is 3.714

PLS HELP WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST! <br> NO FAKE ANSWERS!
ohaa [14]

Answer:

1)An angle bisector is basically the division of an angle into two equal parts, so you should just draw a line in the middle after you found the angles using the compass

2) parallel lines is a pair of lines that never intersect, and are always the same distance apart. you should use the compass to draw a 90-degree angle at the end of the line XY, and use the straightedge to draw a line that is parallel to the line XY.
