Answer: RK = 4, BC = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In a similar triangle, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same.  Thus, because of sides MK and AC, the triangles have a ratio of 6/9, or 2/3.  Thus, you can determine that 2/3(4x+2)=2x+2.

Distribute

8/3x + 4/3 = 2x + 2

Subtract 2x

2/3x + 4/3 = 2

Subtract 4/3

2/3x=2/3

Divide by 2/3

x = 1

Then, simply plug-in 1 for x to get that RK is 4 and BC is 6

<em>Hope it helps <3</em>

Answer:

RK: 4 and BC: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

SImilar triangles

find unknown / know sides

Which means (2x+2)/6 = (4x+2)/9

  (X+1)/3 = (4x+2)/9

Multiply 9 to both sides

9/3 (x+1) = (4x+2)

3x+3 = 4x+2

1 = x

65% of the M&amp;M candies in a package are red. 13 of the M&amp;M candies are red. How many M&amp;M's are there total? *
docker41 [41]
13 = 65%
1% = 13 divided by 65 = 0.2
100% = 0.2 x 100 = 20

There are 20 candies in total^^

Brandon is on one side of a river that is 50 m wide and wants to reach a point 300 m downstream on the opposite side as quickly
AlexFokin [52]
Let P be Brandon's starting point and Q be the point directly across the river from P. 
<span>Now let R be the point where Brandon swims to on the opposite shore, and let </span>
<span>QR = x. Then he will swim a distance of sqrt(50^2 + x^2) meters and then run </span>
<span>a distance of (300 - x) meters. Since time = distance/speed, the time of travel T is </span>

<span>T = (1/2)*sqrt(2500 + x^2) + (1/6)*(300 - x). Now differentiate with respect to x: </span>

<span>dT/dx = (1/4)*(2500 + x^2)^(-1/2) *(2x) - (1/6). Now to find the critical points set </span>
<span>dT/dx = 0, which will be the case when </span>

<span>(x/2) / sqrt(2500 + x^2) = 1/6 ----> </span>

<span>3x = sqrt(2500 + x^2) ----> </span>

<span>9x^2 = 2500 + x^2 ----> 8x^2 = 2500 ---> x^2 = 625/2 ---> x = (25/2)*sqrt(2) m, </span>

<span>which is about 17.7 m downstream from Q. </span>

<span>Now d/dx(dT/dx) = 1250/(2500 + x^2) > 0 for x = 17.7, so by the second derivative </span>
<span>test the time of travel, T, is minimized at x = (25/2)*sqrt(2) m. So to find the </span>
<span>minimum travel time just plug this value of x into to equation for T: </span>

<span>T(x) = (1/2)*sqrt(2500 + x^2) + (1/6)*(300 - x) ----> </span>

<span>T((25/2)*sqrt(2)) = (1/2)*(sqrt(2500 + (625/2)) + (1/6)*(300 - (25/2)*sqrt(2)) = 73.57 s.</span><span>

A Regional College uses the SAT to admit students to the school. The university notices that a lot of students apply even though
Aliun [14]

Answer:

0.191 is the probability that a group of 12 randomly selected applicants would have a mean SAT score that is greater than 525 but below the current admission standard of 584.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 500

Standard Deviation, σ = 100

n = 12

We are given that the distribution of SAT score is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(greater than 525 but 584)

Standard error due to sampling =

\displaystyle\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{100}{\sqrt{12}}

P(525 < x < 584) = P(\displaystyle\frac{525 - 500}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{12}}} < z < \displaystyle\frac{584-500}{\frac{100}{\sqrt{12}}}) = P(0.866 < z < 2.909)\\\\= P(z \leq 2.909) - P(z < 0.866)\\= 0.998 - 0.807 = 0.191 = 19.1\%

P(525 < x < 584) = 19.1\%

0.191 is the probability that a group of 12 randomly selected applicants would have a mean SAT score that is greater than 525 but below the current admission standard of 584.
