Which angles intercept a 20 degree arc in a circle? Select all that apply.

Mathematics

1 answer:

kobusy [5.1K]4 years ago

3 0

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

A 20 degree intercepted arc will correspond with two angles: the inscribed angle and the central angle.

The central angle always has the same degree measure as the intercepted arc, so we want a central angle with degree 20. So, that's B.

The inscribed angle is the angle whose vertex is on the circle, not the center. This angle always has half the measure of the intercepted arc, so we want an angle with degree 20/2 = 10. So, that's D.

Thus, the answers are B and D.

Hope this helps!

(2.5 points) The probability that an airplane accident which is due to structural failure is diagnosed correctly is 0.85 and the

Nikitich [7]

Answer: 0.51

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a conditional probability. The first event is the airplane accident being caused by structural failure. The probability of it being due to structural failure is 0.3 and the probability of it not being due to structural failure is 0.7. The second event involves the diagnosis of the event. If a plane fails due to structural failure, the probability that it will be diagnosed and the results will say it was due to structural failure is 0.85, and the probability that the diagnosis is unable to identify that it was because of a structural failure is 0.15. If the plane were to fail as a result of some other reason aside structural failure, the probability that the diagnosis will show that it was as a result of structural failure is 0.35 and the probability of the diagnosis showing that is is not as a result of structural failure is 0.65. To find the probability that an airplane failed due to structural failure given that it was diagnosed that it failed due to some malfunction, this is the equation;

p = (probability of plane failing and diagnosis reporting that the failure was due to structural failure)/ (probability of diagnosis reporting that failure was due to structural failure)

p = (0.3*0.85)/((0.3*0.85) + (0.7*0.35))

p = 0.51

Which definite integral approximation formula is this: the integral from a to b of f(x)dx ≈ (b-a)/n * [<img src="https://tex.z-d

Stella [2.4K]

The answer is most likely A.

The integration interval [a, b] is split up into n subintervals of equal length (so each subinterval has width (b - a)/n, same as the coefficient of the sum of y terms) and approximated by the area of n rectangles with base (b - a)/n and height y.

n subintervals require n + 1 points, with

x₀ = a

x₁ = a + (b - a)/n

x₂ = a + 2(b - a)/n

and so on up to the last point x = b. The right endpoints are x₁, x₂, … etc. and the height of each rectangle are the corresponding y 's at these endpoints. Then you get the formula as given in the photo.

• "Average rate of change" isn't really relevant here. The AROC of a function G(x) continuous* over an interval [a, b] is equal to the slope of the secant line through x = a and x = b, i.e. the value of the difference quotient

(G(b) - G(a) ) / (b - a)

If G(x) happens to be the antiderivative of a function g(x), then this is the same as the average value of g(x) on the same interval,

$g_{\rm ave}=\dfrac{G(b)-G(a)}{b-a}=\dfrac1{b-a}\displaystyle\int_a^b g(x)\,\mathrm dx$

(* I'm actually not totally sure that continuity is necessary for the AROC to exist; I've asked this question before without getting a particularly satisfying answer.)

• "Trapezoidal rule" doesn't apply here. Split up [a, b] into n subintervals of equal width (b - a)/n. Over the first subinterval, the area of a trapezoid with "bases" y₀ and y₁ and "height" (b - a)/n is

(y₀ + y₁) (b - a)/n

but y₀ is clearly missing in the sum, and also the next term in the sum would be

(y₁ + y₂) (b - a)/n

the sum of these two areas would reduce to

(b - a)/n = (y₀ + 2 y₁ + y₂)

which would mean all the terms in-between would need to be doubled as well to get

$\displaystyle\int_a^b f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx\frac{b-a}n\left(y_0+2y_1+2y_2+\cdots+2y_{n-1}+y_n\right)$

The equation of a circle is given below. Identify the center and radius. Then graph the circle.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Center = (3, 0)
Radius = 3
Graph = see below

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of the circle equation.

Circle equation: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(h, k) = center

r = radius

x = variable

y = variable

Solve:

Given expression

(x - 3)² + y² = 9

Find the point of the center

(h, k) = $\boxed{(3,0)}$

Find the length of the radius

r² = 9

$\boxed{r=3}$

Hope this helps!! :)

the population of alaska is approximately 6.5 * 10^(5) people the populatio of illinois's is about 1.3 * 10^(7)people. how many

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

20 times greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Population of alaska = 6.5 * 10^(5) people

Population of illinois's = 1.3 * 10^(7)people.

To know the number of times population of Illinois in the population of Alaska, we will take their population ratio;

Ratio = Population of illinois's /Population of alaska

Ratio = 1.3 * 10^(7)/6.5 * 10^(5)

Ratio = 0.2 * 10^7-5

Ratio = 0.2 * 10^2

Ratio = 20

Hence the population of Illinois is 20 times greater than population of alaska
