It is important because if you are adding and subtracfing and the decimals are off when your done with the equation you might end up with two decimals or numbers in the wrong place

Ivan used coordinate geometry to prove that quadrilateral EFGH is a square.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

(A)Segment EF, segment FG, segment GH, and segment EH are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Quadrilateral EFGH with points E(-2,3), F(1,6), G(4,3), H(1,0)

Step 2

Using the distance formula

$Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Given E(-2,3), F(1,6)

$|EF|=\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(1-(-2))^2}=\sqrt{3^2+3^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Given F(1,6), G(4,3)

$|FG|=\sqrt{(3-6)^2+(4-1)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+3^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Given G(4,3), H(1,0)

$|GH|=\sqrt{(0-3)^2+(1-4)^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(-3)^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Given E (−2, 3), H (1, 0)

$|EH|=\sqrt{(0-3)^2+(1-(-2))^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(3)^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Step 3

Segment EF ,E (−2, 3), F (1, 6)

Slope of |EF|= $\frac{6-3}{1+2} =\frac{3}{3}=1$

Segment GH, G (4, 3), H (1, 0)

Slope of |GH| $= \frac{0-3}{1-4} =\frac{-3}{-3}=1$

Step 4

Segment EH, E(−2, 3), H (1, 0)

Slope of |EH| $= \frac{0-3}{1+2} =\frac{-3}{3}=-1$

Segment FG, F (1, 6,) G (4, 3)

Slope of |EH| $=\frac{3-6}{4-1} =\frac{-3}{3}=-1$

Step 5

Segment EF and segment GH are perpendicular to segment FG.

The slope of segment EF and segment GH is 1. The slope of segment FG is −1.

Step 6

Segment EF, segment FG, segment GH, and segment EH are congruent.

The slope of segment FG and segment EH is −1. The slope of segment GH is 1.

Step 7

All sides are congruent, opposite sides are parallel, and adjacent sides are perpendicular. Quadrilateral EFGH is a square

Resistors are labeled 100 Ω. In fact, the actual resistances are uniformly distributed on the interval (95, 103). Find the mean

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

$E[R]$ = 99 Ω

$\sigma_R$ = 2.3094 Ω

P(98<R<102) = 0.5696

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean resistance is the average of edge values of interval.

Hence,

The mean resistance, $E[R] = \frac{a+b}{2} = \frac{95+103}{2} = \frac{198}{2}$ = 99 Ω

To find the standard deviation of resistance, we need to find variance first.

$V(R) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12} =\frac{(103-95)^2}{12} = 5.333$

Hence,

The standard deviation of resistance, $\sigma_R = \sqrt{V(R)} = \sqrt5.333$ = 2.3094 Ω

To calculate the probability that resistance is between 98 Ω and 102 Ω, we need to find Normal Distributions.

$z_1 = \frac{102-99}{2.3094} = 1.299$

$z_2 = \frac{98-99}{2.3094} = -0.433$

From the Z-table, P(98<R<102) = 0.9032 - 0.3336 = 0.5696

Jeanette can walk 1 km in 11 minutes. At the same rate, how far can she walk in 55 minutes?

gladu [14]

11 minutes = 1 km

11 x 5 = 55 minutes
1 x 5 = 5 km.

She can walk 5 km in 55 minutes.
