Answer:
A.
Statement: ∠6 ≅ ∠14
Reason: For parallel lines cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are congruent.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached, a plot of the problem is shown.
Given p || q and r is a transversal which cut p and q, then ∠1 ≅ ∠5 and ∠2 ≅ ∠6.
Given r || s and q is a transversal which cut r and s, then ∠6 ≅ ∠14 and ∠8 ≅ ∠16.
From the picture we see that ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary, that is, their addition is equal to 180º. ∠2 ≅ ∠6 and ∠6 ≅ ∠14, then ∠2 ≅ ∠14, in consequence ∠1 and ∠14 are supplementary.
Answer:
57.885
Step-by-step explanation:
For such calculations a probability calculator is very helpful. The one in the attachment shows the 87th percentile to be 57.885.
___
A table of the standard normal distribution will tell you the 87th percentile corresponds to a z-value of 1.12639. Then the X value is ...
X = Zσ +μ = 1.12639(7) +50 = 57.885
