Problem 7: Correct
Problem 8: Correct
Problem 9: Correct

The steps are below if you are curious

===========================================================================================

Problem 7

S = 180*(n-2)
2340 = 180*(n-2)
2340/180 = n-2
13 = n-2
n-2 = 13
n = 13+2
n = 15

I'm using n in place of lowercase s, but the idea is the same. If anything, it is better to use n for the number of sides since S already stands for the sum of the interior angles. I'm not sure why your teacher decided to swap things like that.

===========================================================================================

Problem 8

First find y
y+116 = 180
y+116-116 = 180-116
y = 64

which is then used to find x. The quadrilateral angles add up to 180*(n-2) = 180*(4-2) = 360 degrees
Add up the 4 angles, set the sum equal to 360, solve for x

x+y+125+72 = 360
x+64+125+72 = 360 ... substitution (plug in y = 64)
x+261 = 360
x+261-261 = 360-261
x = 99

===========================================================================================

Problem 9

With any polygon, the sum of the exterior angles is always 360 degrees

The first two exterior angles add to 264. The missing exterior angle is x
x+264 = 360
x+264-264 = 360-264
x = 96

A group of freshmen at a local university consider joining the equestrian team. Thirty‑five percent of students choose Western r

lesantik [10]

Answer:

a) Option D) 0.75

b) Option D) 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Percentage of students who choose Western riding = 35%

$P(w) = 0.35$

Percentage of students who choose dressage= 45%

$P(d) = 0.45$

Percentage of students who choose jumping = 50%

$P(j) = 0.50$

Percentage of students who choose both dressage and jumping = 20%

$P(d \cap j) = 0.20$

Percentage of students who choose Western and dressage = 10%

$P(w \cap d) = 0.10$

Percentage of students who choose Western and jumping = 0%

$P(w \cap j) = 0$

Thus, we can say

$P(w \cap j \cap d) = 0$

Formula:

$P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)$

a) P(student chooses dressage or jumping)

$P(d \cup j) = P(d) + P(j) -p(d \cap j)\\= 0.45 + 0.50-0.20 = 0.75$

b) P(student chooses neither dressage nor Western riding)

$= 1 - P(d \cup w)\\= 1 - (P(d) + P(w) - P(d \cap w))\\= 1 - (0.45 + 0.35 - 0.10)= 0.3$

If the length of the legs of a right triangle are 5 m and 7 m, what is the length of the hypotenuse?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

$c = 8.60232526704263$

$c \approx8.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2}$

$c = \sqrt{ {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} }$

$c = \sqrt{ {5}^{2} + {7}^{2} }$

$c = \sqrt{25 + 49}$

$c = \sqrt{74}$

$c = 8.60232526704263$

$c \approx8.6$

Malcolm has been watching a roulette-style game at a local charity bazaar. The game has only ten numbers on the wheel, and every

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Malcolm is showing evidence of gambler's fallacy.

This is the tendency to think previous results can affect future performance of an event that is fundamentally random.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each round of the roulette-style game is independent of each other. The probability that 8 will come up at any time remains the same, equal to the probability of each number from 1 to 10 coming up. That it has not come up in the last 15 minutes does not increase or decrease the probability that it would come up afterwards.

Find the solution set for the following equation. <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Csqrt%28x%29%3D5" id="TexFormula1" title=

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Solution set = {25}

Step-by-step explanation:

=> $-\sqrt{x} =5$

Dividing both sides by -1

=> $\sqrt{x} = -5$

Taking square on both sides

=> x = 25

Solution set = {25}
