AD= AB+BC+CD
According to the question,
AB=BC
Then ,
AB+BC=2AB

76= 2AB + 24
52/2= AB = BC = 26.

One experiment had 10 players spinning, another experiment had 100 players spinning. Which experiment is more likely to come clo

Stels [109]

Answer: Experiment with 100 players sprinting

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to experiments using samples to find out the effect of a variable on an entire population by finding out the representative effect on the sample, the larger the size of the sample, the better.

A larger sample comes closer to being the actual size of the population so when this larger sample is experimented upon, the results it gives will be closer to the results that would be gotten if we experimented on the entire population. The 100 player sprinting experiment would therefore come closer to matching its theoretical probability.

Mean of all scores means add them all up then divide by number of scores (5)

so
the mean has to be at least 95 aka, greater than or equal to 95
so
represent the last score with x
mean is the sum of all scores

$\frac{96+93+97+92+x}{5} \geq 95$
$\frac{378+x}{5} \geq 95$
multiply both sides by 5
$378+x \geq 475$
minus 378 from both sides
$x \geq 97$

he has to get at least 97 on the last test to get the highest score
good luck, marvin

Mentally determine the value of x that makes each equation true. 2(x−1)=10

alexdok [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by 2

x - 1 = 5

Add 1 to both sides

x - 1 + 1 = 5 + 1

Combine

x = 6

An airplane can cruise at 570 mph. How far can it fly in 4/3 hours?

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The plane can fly 760 miles in 4/3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

An airplane can cruise at 570 miles per hour.

We have to find the distance travelled by train in 4/3 hours.

Distance = Speed * Time

Distance = $570*\frac{4}{3}$

Distance = $\frac{2280}{3}$

Distance = 760 miles

Hence,

The plane can fly 760 miles in 4/3 hours.
