Which statement is true about this argument?

Mathematics
2 answers:
Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The argument is valid by the law of detachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first verify that the first statement, "if p, then q" is correct.  If a parallelogram has a right angle, this means that the angle opposite that angle must also be right; this is because the opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent.

This also means that the adjacent angle to this right angle must also be right; this is because the adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary.

Thus "if p, then q" is true.

The law of detachment states that if I have two statements, one of the form "if p, then q" and the other "p", then the conclusion, "q," is valid.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)......mean= sum of observations/ total observations

= 5.2+8.4+4.3+6.7+5.8/5= 6.08

median= n=5(odd)=n+1/2=6/2=3rdterm= 5.8( when arranged in ascending order).....

mode= 3median- 2meam= 3×5.8-2×6.08= 5.24

range=8.4-4.3=4.1(when done A.O)

2)......mean= -2-13-13-5-7/5= -8

median= 3rd term= -5.....(n=5..odd)(when done A.o)

mode=largest frequency= -13

range= -13-(-2) = -13+2= -11(A.O)

3).....mean= sum/no.= 8+6+13/2+17/2+15/2+7+8+11/2+7+8//10=7.2

median=n=10(even)

=

mode= 8

range=8.5-5.5=3

median:==

(10/2)+(10/2+1)//2=5 term + 6term/2=7+7.5=14.5/2=7.25

4)....

5)...remove 62...then 73will be having highest frequency

1/(x+1) - 1/(x+2) = 1/2
katen-ka-za [31]
Please include the instructions; I assume your job is to find the value of x.

<span>1/(x+1) - 1/(x+2) = 1/2 would better be written as
   
     1            1            1
</span><span>-------- - ------------ = ----
  x+1           x+2        2

Identify the LCD.  It is (x+1)(x+2)(2).  Mult. all 3 terms of the equation by this LCD:

2(x+2) - 2(x+1) = 2(x+1)(x+2)

We can factor out the 2 from all terms:

x+2 - x - 1 = x^2 + 3x + 2

Let's move all terms from the left to the right side:

 0              = x^2 + 3x + 2 - x - 2 + x + 1

Then x^2 + 3x + 1 = 0.  This is a quadratic with a=1, b=3 and c=1.

What is x?

       -3 plus or minus sqrt( 9-4(1)(1) )        -3 plus or minus sqrt(5)
x = --------------------------------------------- = ---------------------------------
                             2                                                    2

I rather expected to obtain an integer value for x.


Why don't you give this problem a try yourself?  Suggestion:  First mult. every term by 2.  This will give you:

   2          2
------- - ------- = 1   and this may be slightly easier to work with.  Please
 x+1      x+2          give it a try:  try to find x that satisfies this equation. 
                              Important:  note that x cannot equal either -1 or -2.

If the graph of f(x) = x is shifted up 9 units, what would be the equation of the new graph?
goblinko [34]

Answer:

x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x, going up 9

that is y=x, going up 9

if you wnat to go up, subtract 9 from y

y -9 = x

y=x+9

convert back to f(x)

f(x) = x+9
