2 m
--- = ----
5 70

5m = 2(70)
5m = 140
m = 140/5
m = 28

hope this helps :)

Answer:

The value of m is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression, $\frac{2}{5}=\frac{m}{70}$

Cross multiplying the terms, we get,

$\frac{2}{5}=\frac{m}{70}$

i.e. $2\times 70=m\times 5$

i.e. $140=5m$

i.e. $m=\frac{140}{5}$

i.e. m= 28.

Thus, the value of m is 28.

M<3 is (3x + 4) and m<5 is (2x +11)

butalik [34]

Answer:

Part 1) Option C. Same side interior angles

Part 2) Option A. $(3x+4)+(2x+11)=180\°$

Part 3) Option B. $m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

If p and q are parallel

then

m<3 and m<5 are consecutive interior angles or Same side interior angles

and

$m$

Part 2) we know that

$m$ -----> by consecutive interior angles (supplementary angles)

we have that

$m$

substitute

$(3x+4)+(2x+11)=180\°$

Part 3) Find the measure of angle 5

we know that

$(3x+4)+(2x+11)=180\°$

Solve for x

$5x+15\°=180\°$

$5x=180\°-15\°$

$x=165\°/5\°=33\°$

$m$

substitute the value of x

$m$

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.04}{1.64})^2}=420.25$

And rounded up we have that n=421

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sample proportion have the following distribution:

$\hat p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=-1.64, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.64$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.04$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

We assume that a prior estimation for p would be $\hat p =0.5$ since we don't have any other info provided. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.04}{1.64})^2}=420.25$

And rounded up we have that n=421
