The median triangle is a line segment that connects the vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side. Therefore, in the given, we can say that RS = QS

Equating RS and QS, we will find the value of X

RS = QS 
5x-11 = 2x+7
5x-2x = 7+11    ⇒ combine like terms
3x = 18             ⇒ divide both sides by 3 to get the x value 
x = 6

Find the value of RS and QS, in this, we will show that two are equal

5(6)-11 = 2(6)+7
19 = 19  ⇒ correct

Therefore RQ is the sum of RS and QS or simply twice the length of either segment

RQ = 19 x 2 = 19 + 19 = 38 (D)

A bag contains tickets numbered 1 through 5. Use the probability distribution to determine the probability of drawing an odd num
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket is 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Odd numbered tickets:

Probability of one is 1/5 plus half of 1/5.

P(X = 1) = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{3}{10}

Probability of 3 is half of 1/5.

P(X = 3) = \frac{1}{10}

Probability of 5 is 1/5. So

P(X = 5) = \frac{1}{5}

Probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket:

p = P(X = 1) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 5) = \frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{4}{10} + \frac{2}{10} = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6

0.6*100% = 60%

The probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket is 60%.

Determine if the sequence (cosn/ n) converges or diverges. tell if it is absolutely or conditionally convergent
nevsk [136]
. The series is divergent. To see this, first observe that the series ∑ 1/kn for n = 1 to ∞ is divergent for any integer k ≥ 2. 

Now, if we pick a large integer for k, say k > 100, then for nearly all integers n it will be true that 1 > cos(n) > 1/k. Therefore, since ∑ 1/kn is divergent, ∑ cos(n)/n must also be divergent The *summation* is divergent, but the individual terms converge to the number 0.<span>by comparison test since cosn/n <= 1/n is convergent and 1/n is divergent by harmonic series so the series is conditionally converget </span>
