When two lines are crossed by another line the angles in matching corners are called Corresponding Angles .When the two lines being crossed are Parallel Lines the Corresponding Angles are equal.

In the figure given PB || JM .

We need to write the reason for statement <AJM is congruent to <APB.

These angles are on matching corners for the parallel lines PB&JM so they are corresponding angles.

Option C. Corresponding angles are congruent  is the right justification for the given statement.

A ski gondola carries skiers to the top of a mountain. assume that weights of skiers are normally distributed with a mean of 199
Allushta [10]
A) maximum mean weight of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ number of passengers
</span><span>
maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 </span>÷ 25 = <span>150lb

</span>B)  First, find the z-score:
z = (value - mean) / stdev
   = (150 - 199) / 41
   = -1.20

We need to find P(z > -1.20) = 1 - P(z < -1.20)

Now, look at a standard normal table to find <span>P(z < -1.20) = 0.11507, therefore:
</span>P(z > -1.20) = 1 - <span>0.11507 = 0.8849

Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 25 randomly selected skiers exceeds 150lb is about 88.5%</span> </span>

C) With only 20 passengers, the new maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 ÷ 20 = <span>187.5lb

Let's repeat the steps of point B)

z = (187.5 - 199) / 41
   = -0.29

P(z > -0.29) = 1 - P(z < -0.29) = 1 - 0.3859 = 0.6141

</span>Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 20 randomly selected skiers exceeds 187.5lb is about 61.4%

D) The mean weight of skiers is 199lb, therefore:
number</span> of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ <span>mean weight of passengers
                                     = 3750 </span></span><span>÷ 199
                                     = 18.8
The new capacity of 20 skiers is safer than 25 skiers, but we cannot consider it safe enough, since the maximum capacity should be of 18 skiers.</span>
