Answer:

BC = 107

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B is between A and C.

AB  = 3x-1

BC = 9x+8

AC = 139

We need to find BC for which we need to find x first.

<u>Finding 'x':</u>

We know that AB + BC = AC

*putting the values of AB, BC and AC*

3x-1+9x+8 = 139

12x+7=139

12x=132

x=132/12

x=11

Now, BC = 9x+8 = 9(11) +8

BC = 99+8

BC = 107

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

84°

Step-by-step explanation:

\because (13n - 16) \degree + (7n  + 12) \degree + (6n)\degree \\= 360\degree \\  \\  \therefore \: (26n - 4) \degree= 360\degree \\  \\  \therefore \: 26n - 4= 360 \\  \\ \therefore \: 26n = 360 + 4 \\  \\ \therefore \: 26n = 364 \\  \\ \therefore \: n =  \frac{364}{26}  \\  \\ \therefore \: n =  14 \\  \\\because  m\overset { \frown}{BC} = (6n)°\\  \\\therefore \:m \overset { \frown}{BC} =(6\times 14)°  \\  \\   \huge \purple {\boxed {\therefore \:m\overset { \frown}{BC}= 84°}} \\

Why might the mean of a probability distribution for a discrete random variable be less than (or greater than) the average of po
user100 [1]

The Normal probability distribution function is left-skewed, right-skewed, or symmetric depending on the values of the variance and the standard deviation might the mean of a probability distribution for a discrete random variable be less than (or greater than) the average of possible values.

A probability distribution is a mathematical function that describes the probabilities of different possible values ​​of a variable. Probability distributions are often represented using graphs or probability tables.

Probability distributions are called discrete probability distributions, and the set of outcomes is inherently discrete. For example, if you roll a die, all possible outcomes are discrete and you get a large number of outcomes. Also called probability mass function.
