The meaning of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is that the angles on the opposite vertices are supplementary or in other words equals to 180 degrees.

In this exercise it is asked you to find the measure in degrees of angle A. First of all, you have to find the value of x. To do this you have to select two angles on this case angles A and C.

m<A+m<C=180 Substitute the values of angles A and C
2x+9+3x+1=180 Combine like terms
5x+10=180 Subtract in both sides by 10
5x=170 Divide in both sides by 5 to isolate x
x= 34

Now that the value of x is known, you can substitute it into the expression representing angle A.

m<A=2x+9
m<A=2(34)+9
m<A=77

The measure of angle A is 77 degrees.

The equation looks like this $\frac{ x^{2} }{16} + \frac{ y^{2} }{25} =1$ . In an ellipse, a is always the bigger value, so a^2 = 25. This bigger value also tells us which axis is the major one. Sine the bigger value a is under the y^2 of the equation, the major axis is the y-axis. This is a vertical ellipse. The center is always found within a set of parenthesis that exist with the x^2 and the y^2. Since there are no parenthesis with either, there is no side to side movement, nor is there any up or down movement. So the center doesn't move from the origin (0, 0). The vertex is also along the major axis, and if a^2 is 25, then a = 5, so the vertices go up 5 from the center and down 5 from the center. Vertices are (0, 5) and (0, -5). The foci follow the formula $c^{2}= a^{2}- b^{2}$ . c is the distance that the foci are from the center. $c^{2}=25-16$ and c = 3. The foci also lie on the major axis, so the coordinates for the foci are (0, 3) and (0, -3). There you go!

What equation represents the line that passes through the points(6,-3) and (-4,-9)?

marysya [2.9K]

M = - 3 + 9 / 6 + 4
m = 6 / 10
m = 3/5

- 3 = 3/5 ( 6 ) + c
- 15 = 18 + 5c
5c = - 33
c = - 33/5
y = 3/5x - 33/5

Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be th

sesenic [268]

Answer:

The probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

P(Blue eyes) = 31%

P(Deaf) = 38%

P(Deaf | Blue eyes) = 42%

Formula for conditional probability:

$P( A|B) = \displaystyle\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$

Now, let A be the event where the dog is deaf and B be the the event where dog is blue eyed.

$P( \text{ Deaf}|\text{Blue eyes}) = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{P(\text{Blue eyes})}\\\\0.42 = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{0.31}\\\\P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes}) = 0.42\times 0.31 = 0.1302 = 13.02\%$
