Choice D
Answer: SU, TU, ST is the right answer
Step-by-step explanation: In a triangle
The largest side and the largest angle are opposite to each other
The shortest side and the shortest angle are opposite to each other.
So using the above axioms we can observe the triangle.
The largest angle is m∠U = 80° so the side opposite to it is the largest i.e. ST is the largest
The smallest angle is m∠T = 25° so the shortest side is SU
The third side will be the middle side as the angle ∠S is greater than 25° and less than 80°
So the sides in order from least to greatest are: SU, TU, ST
Answer:
x = 5/39
, y = 539/39
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the following system:
{y - 2.5 x = 13.5
12.25 x - y = -12.25
In the first equation, look to solve for y:
{y - 2.5 x = 13.5
12.25 x - y = -12.25
y - 2.5 x = y - (5 x)/2 and 13.5 = 27/2:
y - (5 x)/2 = 27/2
Add (5 x)/2 to both sides:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
12.25 x - y = -12.25
Substitute y = 1/2 (5 x + 27) into the second equation:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
1/2 (-5 x - 27) + 12.25 x = -12.25
(-5 x - 27)/2 + 12.25 x = 12.25 x + (-(5 x)/2 - 27/2) = 9.75 x - 27/2:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
9.75 x - 27/2 = -12.25
In the second equation, look to solve for x:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
9.75 x - 27/2 = -12.25
9.75 x - 27/2 = (39 x)/4 - 27/2 and -12.25 = -49/4:
(39 x)/4 - 27/2 = -49/4
Add 27/2 to both sides:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
(39 x)/4 = 5/4
Multiply both sides by 4/39:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
x = 5/39
Substitute x = 5/39 into the first equation:
{y = 539/39
x = 5/39

Answer:
<em>84%</em><em> of the wage earners earn less than $14,000 each. </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule (68-95-99.7%)-
According to this around 95% of the data will fall within two standard deviations of the mean.
As the bell curve is symmetrical, so the remaining 5% will be divided into 2 equal parts. So 2.5% will be above 2 standard deviation and 2.5% will be below 2 standard deviation.
As it is given that, the top 2.5% of the wage earners earn $18,000 or more, so 18,000 is 2 standard deviation away from the mean 10,000.
i.e 

We know that,

where,
X = raw score = 14,000
μ = 10,000
σ = 4,000
Putting the values,

Now, calculating the value from the z score table,

As the probability at
is the area below that, so 84% of the wage earners earn less than $14,000 each.
