Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

The tangent of an angle is defined as the ratio of opposite side to adjacent side.

Mathematically, it is expressed as

$\tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

where, Perpendicular is the opposite side of theta Ф.

and base is the adjacent side of theta Ф.

So, it is ratio and ratio is a type of fraction and it is read as opposite overt adjacent.

But it is not a proportion.

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.

Newborn males have weights with a mean of 3272.8 g and a standard deviation of 660.2 g. Newborn females have weights with a mean

Maksim231197 [3]

The correct option is: a female who weighs 1500 g

Explanation

Formula for finding the z-score is: $z= \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

Newborn males have weights with a mean $(\mu)$ of 3272.8 g and a standard deviation $(\sigma)$ of 660.2 g.

So, the z-score for the newborn male who weighs 1500 g will be.......

$z(X=1500)=\frac{1500-3272.8}{660.2}=-2.685... \approx -2.69$

According to the normal distribution table, $P(z=-2.69)=0.0036 = 0.36\%$

Now, newborn females have weights with a mean $(\mu)$ of 3037.1 g and a standard deviation $(\sigma)$ of 706.3 g.

So, the z-score for the newborn female who weighs 1500 g will be.......

$z(X=1500)=\frac{1500-3037.1}{706.3}=-2.176... \approx -2.18$

According to the normal distribution table, $P(z=-2.18)=0.0146 = 1.46\%$

As we can see that the probability that a newborn female has weight of 1500 g is greater than newborn male, so a newborn female has the weight of 1500 g that is more extreme relative to the group from which he came.

I don’t know what the answer to this question is , help

ipn [44]

Answer:

(4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

y = x - 4 → (1)

- 4x - 6y = - 16 → (2)

substitute y = x - 4 into (2)

- 4x - 6(x - 4) = - 16

- 4x - 6x + 24 = - 16

- 10x + 24 = - 16 ( subtract 24 from both sides )

- 10x = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 10 )

x = 4

substitute x = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 4 - 4 = 0

solution is (4, 0)

Answer:

$x = - 12$

C.E.: x =/= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{x + 4} = \frac{4}{x + 4} + 2 \\ \frac{x}{x + 4} = \frac{4 + 2x + 8}{x + 4} \\ x = 4 + 2x + 8 \\ - x = 12 \\ x = - 12$

What is the equation of this line?

QveST [7]

Answer:

y = (1/2)x - 3 Answer A is closest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points on the line are (0, -3) and (4, -1). Notice that I've intentionally chosen "nice" points whose coordinates are integers; this makes the math easier. The point (1, -5/2) is also on the line if you want to use it, but the math's a bit more complicated.

Going from (0, -3) to (4, -1), x increases by 4 and y increases by 2. Hence, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 2/4, or m = 1/2.

The slope-intercept formula for the equation of a straight line is the most convenient to use here, since we can tell immediately from the graph that the y-intercept is (0, -3):

y = (1/2)x - 3

Answer A should be y = (1/2)x - 3 for improved legibility. 1 2 x is not correct as a way to express (1/2)x.
