Answer:

18,72

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add to 90 degrees

Multiply the ratio by x

1x+4x = 90

Combine like terms

5x = 90

divide by 5

5x/5 = 90/5

x =18

The first angle is 18 degrees

4*18 =72

The second angle is 72 degrees

What is the equation of this line in slope-intercept form?

12345 [234]

Answer:

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

The slope of the line, m, is -2 because the line shows a negative trend and moves right 1 unit every time a point moves down 2 units.

The y-intercept, b, is 5 because the line crosses that number once on the y-axis.

Tresset [83]

Answer:

0.0869 = 8.69% probability of getting more than 61% green balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
