Answer:

BC = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the missing triangles are shown:

<u>Data</u>

  • AB = 10
  • BD = 5
  • DE= 12
  • Then, AD = 10-5 = 5

As a consequence of the "Side Splitter" Theorem:

AD/DE = AB/BC

Replacing with data and solving for BC

5/12 = 10/BC

BC = 10*12/5 = 24

Elvate 5-3(X-1) when X=7
USPshnik [31]

If x = 7 we just substitute all the x's by seven, so our equation stays like this:

5 - 3(7 - 1)


Now we solve it:

5 - 3(7 - 1) =

5 - 3(6) =

5 - 18 =

-13


Hope it helped,

How can you use standard deviations to compare the spread of each data set?
ozzi

Calculate the standard deviation for each data set:

Sample A = 1.246

Sample B = 2.924

The smaller the deviation the closer the data set is, the larger the deviation the more widespread the data set is.

Sample B has a larger deviation so the spread of the data is wider.

As front passed,the temperature changed steadily over 6 hours. altogether it changed -18 degrees. what was the change in tempera
Anettt [7]
The temperature changed steadily over the 6 hours, which means that it changed the same amount of degrees every hour.  It changed -18 degrees in 6 hours. 
Divide the temperature change by the number of hours.
-18 ÷ 6 = -3
The change in temperature per hour is -3°.
