The school gym can hold 650 people. A permanent bleacher in the gymn holds 136 people. The event organizers are setting up 25 ro

ws with an equal number of chairs. At most, how many chairs can be in each row?

650 -136=514
514 divided by 25 = 20.56
So it would be 21
This will give you a little extra chairs but they have to be equal in each row

What are the postulates for congruent triangles

Delvig [45]

Hi there!

There are 5 ways to find if two triangles are congruent :

SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS & HL

<u>1. SSS (Side, Side, Side)</u>

Means that we have two triangles with 3 sides equal.

⇒ If 3 sides of one triangle are equal to 3 sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

<u>2. SAS (Side, Angle, Side)</u>

Means that we have two triangles where we know 2 sides and the included angle are equal.

⇒ If 2 sides and the includent angle of one triangle are equal to the corresponding sides and angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

<u>3. ASA (Angle, Side, Angle)</u>

Means that we have two triangles where we know 2 angles and the included side are equal.

⇒ If 2 angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

<u>4. AAS (Angle, Angle, Side)</u>

Means thant we have two triangles where we know 2 angles and the non-included side are equal.

⇒ If 2 angles and the non-included side of one triangle are equal to the coresponding angles and side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

<u>5. HL (Hypotenuse, leg)</u>

** This one only applies to <em><u>right-angled triangles</u></em>.**

Hypotenuse: The longest side of a right-angled triangle.

Legs: The other 2 sides of the right-angled triangle.

Means we have two right-angled triangles with the same length of hypotenuse and the same length for one of the other 2 legs (it doesn't matter which leg since the triangles could be rotated).

⇒ If the hypotenuse and one leg of one right-angled triangles are equal to the corresponding hypotenuse and leg of another right-angled triangles, the two triangles are congruent.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

In preparation for the holiday season, Big Bird Co. decided to increase production of stuffed Bert characters by 30%.

marin [14]

Answer:

the additional characters will the factory creating per day is 105 characters

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the additional characters will the factory creating per day is shown below

= Number of character produced × (1 + increased percentage)

= 350 × (1 + 0.30)

= 350 × 1.30

= 455 characters

Now the additional characters would be

= 455 - 350

= 105 characters

hence, the additional characters will the factory creating per day is 105 characters

In a recent contest, the mean score was 210 and the standard deviation was 25. a) Find the z-score of John who scored 190 b) Fin

denpristay [2]

Answer:

a) $Z = -0.8$

b) $Z = 2.4$

c) Mary's score was 241.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 210, \sigma = 25$

a) Find the z-score of John who scored 190

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{190 - 210}{25}$

$Z = -0.8$

b) Find the z-score of Bill who scored 270

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{270 - 210}{25}$

$Z = 2.4$

c) If Mary had a score of 1.25, what was Mary’s score?

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$1.25 = \frac{X - 210}{25}$

$X - 210 = 25*1.25$

$X = 241.25$

Mary's score was 241.25.
