ves as Democrats, 45% as Independents, 21% as Republicans, and 2% as Other.23 When asked, "Should the government in Washington do everything possible to improve the standard of living of all poor Americans?," 23% of the Democrats, 18% of the Independents, 4% of the Republicans, and 15% of Others agreed. Given that a person agrees that the government in Washington should do everything possible to improve the standard of living of all poor Americans, use Bayes’ rule to find the probability the person thinks of him- or herself as a Democrat.

Answer:

0.71875

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability that a person thinks of himself as Democrat = P(A)= 0.32

Probability that a person agress that the govt. in Washington should do everything possible to improve the standard of living of poor= P(B)

Probability that a Democrat agress that the govt. in Washington should do everything possible to improve the standard of living of poor P(A ∩ B) = 0.23

P(B/A) = P(B∩A)/ P(A)

P(B/A)= 0.23/0.32

P(B/A) = 0.71875

Given: ZDEF is a right angle. Using a paragraph proof, prove 41 is acute.
Slav-nsk [51]

Let G be some point on the diagonal line away from point E.

Angle DEG represents angle 1.

We're given that angle DEF is a right angle which means it's 90 degrees. Angle DEG is some angle smaller than 90 degrees. By definition, that must mean angle 1 is acute. Any acute angle is smaller than 90 degrees. There's not much else to say other than this is just a definition problem.

----------------

Extra side notes:

If angle 1 was a right angle, then that would mean angle GEF would have to be 0 degrees; however the diagram shows this isn't the case.

If angle 1 was obtuse, then there's no way we'd be able to fit it into angle DEF. In other words, there's no way to have an angle larger than 90 fit in a 90 degree angle.

Answer:

The width of the window should be 7.6\ ft and the height of the window should be 3.8\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a semicircle (window) is equal to

C=\pi r

we have that

C=12\ ft

\pi=3.14

substitute and solve for r

12=(3.14)r

r=12/3.14=3.8\ ft

so

the width of the window is equal to the diameter of the semicircle

so

The width of the window should be 3.8*2=7.6\ ft and the height of the window should be 3.8\ ft
