Answer:

Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: EC || AC, DB || AC, ∠A = ∠F

Prove: ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA

Solution

See diagram attached to the solution to better understand the following workings.

Redrawing ΔMDF or rotating to be facing the same direction.

EC is parallel to AC

DB parallel to AC

Using similar triangle theorem:

If ΔMDF ∼ ΔNCA

Ratio of Corresponding sides would be equal

(adjacent of ΔMDF)/(adjacent of ΔNCA) = (Opposite of ΔMDF)/(opposite of ΔNCA) = (hypotenuse of ΔMDF)/(hypotenuse of ΔNCA)

DF/ CA = MD/NC = FM/AN

∠A = ∠F

∠M = ∠N

∠D = ∠C

Since the ratio of Corresponding sides and angle are equal, ΔMDF is similar to ΔNCA.

Ginger buys lunch at school every day. She always gets
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week is;

D. 8/10 = 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The frequency with which Ginger buys launch = Everyday

The percentage of the time the cafeteria has pizza out = 80%

The outcome of 0 and 1 = No pizza available

The outcome of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 = Pizza available

Therefore, we have the;

Group number  {}                          Percentage of time pizza available

1                     {}                          80%

2                     {}                          80%

3                     {}                          80%

4                     {}                          80%

5                     {}                          40%

6                     {}                          100%

7                     {}                          80%

8                     {}                          100%

9                     {}                          80%

10                     {}                          80%

Therefore, the sum of the percentages outcome the days Ginger eats pizza = 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.8 + 0.4 + 1 + 0.8 + 1 + 0.8 + 0.8 = 8

The number of runs of simulation = 10 runs

The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week = (The sum of the percentages outcome the days Ginger eats pizza)/(The number of runs of simulation)

∴ The estimated probability that Ginger will eat a a pizza everyday of the week = 8/10

Please help me , thank you
Mama L [17]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

The range are the values that y can take.

From the graph we can see that all defined values of y are below the x- axis

Thus range is y < 0 → b

Human body temperatures have a mean of 98.20° F and a standard deviation of 0.62° F. Sally's temperature can be described by z =
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Sally's temperature is 97.27 °F.

Step-by-step explanation:

All the information given in the question tells us that the human body temperatures are normally distributed with a population's mean = 98.20°F and a standard deviation = 0.62°F.

The question gives us Sally's temperature in a <em>z-score</em>. We have to remember that the <em>standard normal distribution</em> is a particular case of a <em>normal distribution</em> where the mean = 0 and the standard deviation = 1.

Using <em>the standard normal distribution,</em> we can determine every probability associated with a normal distribution "transforming" the raw scores, coming from normally distributed data, into z-scores.

A z-score gives us the distance from the population's mean and is in standard deviation units. So, a z = 1.5 tells us that the value is 1.5 standard deviations <em>above the mean</em>. Conversely, a z = -1.5 tells us that the raw score is also 1.5 standard deviation from the mean, but in the opposite direction, that is, <em>below the mean</em>.

The formula for a z-score is as follows:

\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} (1)

Where

\\ x\;is\;the\;raw\;score.

\\ \mu\;is\;the\;population\;mean.

\\ \sigma\;is\;the\;population\;standard\;deviation.

Then to find <em>x </em>(or the raw score, that is, Sally's temperature), we need to solve the formula (1) for it to finally solve the question.

Then

\\ \mu = 98.20^\circF °F

\\ \sigma = 0.62^\circF °F

\\ z = -1.5

Thus (with no units)

\\ -1.5 = \frac{x - 98.20}{0.62}

\\ (-1.5*0.62) = x - 98.20

\\ (-1.5*0.62) + 98.20 = x

\\ x = (-1.5*0.62) + 98.20

\\ -0.93 + 98.20

\\ x = 97.27°F

Thus, Sally's temperature is \\ x = 97.27°F (rounding the answer to the nearest hundredth).

zvonat [6]
Assuming n is the number of signers.

7 is 10% of y.
7 = 0.1y
y = 70

n is 80% of y
n = 0.8y
n = 0.8(70)
n = 56
