Answer:

The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is <u>140</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.

Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.

Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.

Let the number of seashells all together be x.

Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.

Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.

Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:

35\%\ of\ x=49.

⇒ \frac{35}{100} \times x=49

⇒ 0.35\times x=49

⇒ 0.35x=49

Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:

⇒ x=140.

Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.

Find the measure of angle 1
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
In ∆FDH, there are two slash marks in two of its legs. This indicates that this triangle is isosceles. If a triangle is isosceles, then it will have two congruent sides and therefore have two congruent angles.

In ∆FDH, angle D is already given to us as the measure of 80°. We can find out the measure of the other angles of this triangle by using the equation:

80 + 2x = 180

Subtract 80 from both sides of the equation.

2x = 100

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 50

This means that angle F and angle H in ∆FDH both measure 50°.

Now, moving over to the next smaller triangle in the picture is ∆DHG. In this triangle, there are also two legs that are congruent which once again indicates that this triangle is isosceles.

First, we have to solve for angle DHG and we do that by using the information obtained from solving for the angles of the other triangle.

**In geometry, remember that two or more consecutive angles that form a line will always be supplementary; the angles add up to 180°.**

In this case angle DHF and angle DHG are consecutive angles which form a linear pair. So, we can use the equation:

Angle DHF + Angle DHG = 180°

50° + Angle DHG = 180°.

Angle DHG = 130°.

Now that we know the measure of one angle in ∆DHG, we can use the same method as the previous step for solving the missing angles. Use the equation:

130 + 2x = 180

2x = 50

x = 25

The other two missing angles of ∆DHG are 25°. This means that the measure of angle 1 is also 25°.

Solution: 25°

6. Describe how we could conduct a simulation to decide whether a simple random sample from this population could produce a samp
BigorU [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have proportion p = 50/100 = 0.50

Probability of success = 1-0.50 = 0.50

To conduct simulation, let's assume experiment is to be done 10 times

1. Use binomial parameters n, number = 10, p = 0.50. we then get the necessary size of population To carry out the sampling.

2. We get a random sample and get the size of people who support an against smoking with kids in the car.

3. We repeat this process after drawing sample and also get the number of those in support of ban.

4. After getting n, we find proportion.
