Answer:

ΔADB~ΔCDB; SAS~

Step-by-step explanation:

Due to the tick marks on AD and DC, we know that those sides are congruent

We also know that the angle D is congruent due to the marks

As they share line BD, that side is also congruent.

This means that we have a side, an angle, and another side.

This leaves us with the last two options

The only difference between them is what angle corresponds to which

In the case of this triangle, A and C correspond with each other and B and D are shared. This means we are looking for when the locations of A and C, and B and D are matched

This would mean that the 4th option

ΔADB~ΔCDB; SAS~

Half the sum of a number and 1.75 is −5.1. Enter your answer as a simplified mixed number

musickatia [10]

The unknown number expressed as a mixed fraction is 11 19/20

Let the unknown number be "x"

The sum of the number and 1.75 is expressed as x + 1.75

Half the sum of a number and 1.75 is 1/2(x+1.75)

Equating the result to -5.1 wil give:

1/2(x+1.75) = -5.1

Solve the resulting equation

x + 1.75 = 2(-5.1)

x + 1.75 = -10.2

x = -10.2 - 1.75

x = 11.95

x = 1195/100

x = 11 95/100

Hence the unknown number expressed as a mixed fraction is 11 19/20

The relationship between the length of one side of the Square, eggs, and the perimeter of the Square, why, can be represented in

oee [108]

Answer:

The points with coordinates (x, y) that are on the line of the equation of the line relationship between the side of a square, x and the perimeter, y include;

(1, 4), (2, 8), (3, 12) ....(n, 4·n).

Where n is a positive number.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to determine the length of the perimeter of a square is,

Length of the perimeter of a square = Length of a side of the square multiplied by 4.

That is Perimeter of square = Side of square × 4

The relationship between the length of one side of a square and the perimeter of the square can be represented by the equation

y = 4×d which is a straight line with a slope of 4 passing through the origin

Points o the line include

(1, 4), (2, 8), (3, 12), etc.

The x and y coordinates take the form

(x, 4·x)

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is regi

yan [13]

Answer:

We conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 513 employed persons and 604 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 287 of the employed persons and 280 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote.

Let $p_1$ = percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote.

$p_2$ = percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1\leq p_2$ {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote does not exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1>p_2$ {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

The test statistics that would be used here Two-sample z test for proportions;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of employed workers who have registered to vote = $\frac{287}{513}$ = 0.56

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of unemployed workers who have registered to vote = $\frac{280}{604}$ = 0.46

$n_1$ = sample of employed persons = 513

$n_2$ = sample of unemployed persons = 604

So, the test statistics = $\frac{(0.56-0.46)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{513}+\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{604} } }$

= 3.349

The value of z test statistics is 3.349.

Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of z as 3.349 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.
