Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In geometry (or math in general), when you do a reflection, rotation, or translation the size or length of the lines don't change. Think about it this way: if I have a log and I bring it into the bathroom with me (don't ask why idk) and hold it up in from of the mirror, what will happen? It will look the same length (and people will think I'm crazy for bringing a log into the restroom with me... but I digress).

Answer:

The answer is "A"

Step-by-step explanation:

A reflection across a line is a rigid transformation. Therefore the shape of the original object will not change. Because of this, you know that it would have the same length as the original line segment.

I hope this helps!!!!

69.6% of all full-time law enforcement officers are sworn officers, and of those, 88.2% were males. Females, however, make up 60

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The probability that he or she is a male or a civilian employee is 1.037068

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of sworn officers = 0.696

Probability of civilians = 1 - 0.696 = 0.304

Probability of male sworn officers = 0.882*0.696 = 0.6139

Probability of male civilian = (0.304*(1-0.608)) = 0.1192

Hence probability that he or she is a male or civilian employee is

0.6139 + 0.1192 + 0.304 = 1.037068

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y\in(-6,\ \infty)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(1)\\2y-2>-14\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\\2y-2+2>-14+2\\\\2y>-12\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\dfrac{2y}{2}>\dfrac{-12}{2}\\\\y>-6$

$(2)\\\\4y-4\geq12\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\\4y-4+4\geq12+4\\\\4y\geq16\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\\dfrac{4y}{4}\geq\dfrac{16}{4}\\\\y\geq4$

$\text{From (1) and (2) we have:}\\\\y>-6\ or\ y\geq4\to y\in(-6,\ \infty)\ \cup\ [4,\ \infty)\Rightarrow y\in(-6,\ \infty)$
