In triangle ABC angle bisector AE is equal to EC. Given AC=2·AB, find m∠ABC, in degrees.

Mathematics

Answer:

  m∠ABC = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that AE = EC, triangle AEC is isosceles. Then the altitude from E to AC at D will be the perpendicular bisector of AC.

We know that AC = 2·AB, so AD = AC/2 = AB. Now, we can show triangles AED and AEB are congruent by SAS, so ...

  m∠ABC = m∠ADC = 90°

Tom and same sit down to eat a pie. Tom eats 2/3 of the pie , and sam eats 1/4 of the pie what function of the pie is left
dlinn [17]

If you mean fraction,

Tom: 2/3

Sam: 1/4

Now we change the denominator.

Tom: 6/12

Sam: 3/12

6/12 + 3/12 = 9/12

9/12 can be simplified, so 3/4 of the pie was eaten.

4/4 - 3/4 = 1/4

The answer is 1/4.

aalyn [17]

Answer:

a) This means that there is a 33% probability that one car chosen at random will have less than 49.5 tons of coal.

b) There is a 0.04% .probability that 35 cars chosen at random will have a mean load weight of less than 49.5 tons of coal

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:

The actual weights of coal loaded into each car are normally distributed, with mean = 50 tons and standard deviation = 0.9 ton. This means that \mu = 50, \sigma = 0.9

(a) What is the probability that one car chosen at random will have less than 49.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 49.5

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

Z = \frac{49.5 - 50}{0.9}

Z = -0.44

Z = -0.44 has a pvalue of 0.33.

This means that there is a 33% probability that one car chosen at random will have less than 49.5 tons of coal.

(b) What is the probability that 35 cars chosen at random will have a mean load weight of less than 49.5 tons of coal? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Now we have to use the standard deviation of the sample, since we are working with the sample mean. That is

s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{0.9}{\sqrt{35}} = 0.15

Now, we find pvalue of Z when X = 49.5

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{49.5 - 50}{0.15}

Z = -3.33

Z = -3.33 has a pvalue of 0.0004.

This means that there is a 0.04% .probability that 35 cars chosen at random will have a mean load weight of less than 49.5 tons of coal

The product of two consecutive positive odd numbers is 195.By constructing a quadratic equation and solving it, find the two num
Tomtit [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

x = one odd number

the second odd number is (x+2), as both are consecutive.

so,

x × (x + 2) = 195

x² + 2x = 195

x² + 2x - 195 = 0

the formula to solve this is

x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)

in our case

a = 1

b = 2

c = -195

x = (-2 ± sqrt(4 - 4×1×-195))/(2×1) =

= (-2 ± sqrt(4 + 4×195))/2 = (-2 ± sqrt(784))/2 =

= (-2 ± 28)/2 = -1 ± 14

x1 = -1 + 14 = 13

x2 = -1 - 14 = -15 which is invalid as the numbers are positive.

so, the two numbers are 13 and 15.
