Answer:

B. 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they are similar, we can say that segment AC corresponds to segment DF, and segment AB corresponds to segment ED. So, we can set up a proportion.

\frac{16}{24} =\frac{12}{x}

\frac{2}{3} =\frac{12}{x}

2 * x = 12 * 3

2x = 36

x = 18

So, the length of ED is B. 18 cm.

Hope this helps!

Identify which statement about the mean of a discrete random variable is not true or state that they are all true.Choose the cor
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

A, C are true .  B is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of a discrete random variable can be interpreted as the average outcome if the experiment is repeated many times. Expected value or average of the distribution is analogous to mean of the distribution.

The mean can be found using summation from nothing to nothing x times Upper P (x) , i.e ∑x•P(x).

Example : If two outcomes 100 & 50 occur with probabilities 0.5 each. Expected value (Average) (Mean) : ∑x•P(x) = (0.5)(100) + (0.5)(50) = 50 + 25 = 75

The mean may not be a possible value of the random variable.

Example : Mean of possible no.s on a die = ( 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 ) / 6 = 21/6 = 3.5, which is not a possible value of the random variable 'no. on a die'

Anybody know the answer?
Tcecarenko [31]

Method 1.

Use the formula of a distance between two points:

A(x_A;\ y_A),\ B(x_B;\ y_B)\\\\d=\sqrt{(x_B-x_A)^2+(y_B-y_A)^2}

We have

A(-4,\ 5)\to x_A=-4,\ y_A=5\\B(2,\ -3)\to x_B=2,\ y_B=-3

substitute

|AB|=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(2-(-4))^2}=\sqrt{(-8)^2+6^2}=\sqrt{64+36}=\sqrt{100}=10

Answer: 10

Method 2

Look at the picture.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

x^2=6^2+8^2\\\\x^2=36+64\\\\x^2=100\to x=\sqrt{100}\\\\x=10

Answer: 10

Fraction from or decimal form but has to be rounded
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

x = \frac{25}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is,

2x-\frac{11}{4}x=-\frac{25}{8}

\frac{8x}{4}-\frac{11}{4}x=-\frac{25}{8}

\frac{8x-11x}{4}=-\frac{25}{8}

-\frac{3x}{4}=-\frac{25}{8}

\frac{3x}{4}\times 4=\frac{25}{8}\times 4

3x=\frac{25}{2}

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{25}{2}\times \frac{1}{3}

x = \frac{25}{6}
