Mathematics

Answer:

∠ WZX = 50°

XW is not an altitude.

Step-by-step explanation:

16. See the attached figure.

XW is the angle bisector of ∠ YXZ, hence, ∠ WXY = ∠ WXZ

Now, given that ∠ YXZ = 8x + 34 and ∠ WXY = 10x - 13

Hence, ∠ YXZ = 2 ∠ WXY

⇒ 8x + 34 = 2(10x - 13)

⇒ 8x + 34 = 20x - 26

⇒ 12x = 60

⇒ x = 5.

Hence, ∠ XZY = ∠ WZX = 10x = 50° (Answer)

Now, ∠ WXZ = ∠ WXY = 10x - 13 = 37°

Hence, from Δ WXZ,

∠ WZX + ∠ WXZ + ∠ XWZ = 180°

⇒ 50° + 37° + ∠ XWZ = 180°

⇒ ∠ XWZ = 93° ≠ 90°

Hence, XW is not an altitude. (Answer)

Write the first 6 terms of the arithmetic sequence whose first term is 8 and has a common difference of 2
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: The first 6 terms are = 8, 10, 12,14,16,18

Step-by-step explanation:

The NTH term of an Arithmetic Sequence is given as

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d

where a1 = First term  given as 8 and

d=  common difference given as 2

Therefore  We have that

the first term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d = 8+(1-1) 2

a1= 8

second term=

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a2= 8 + (2-1) 2

= 8+ 2(1) = 10

3rd term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a3= 8 + (3-1) 2

= 8+ 2(2)= 8 + 4=12

4th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a4= 8 + (4-1) 2

= 8+ 2(3)= 8+6=14

5th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a5= 8 + (5-1) 2

= 8+ 2(4)=8+ 8=16

6th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a6= 8 + (6-1) 2

= 8+ 2(5)=8 +10 =18

After flying between two black holes, our engines have been a bit janky. The probability of one of any of our 8 power couplings
otez555 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for binomial distribution. It is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × q^(n - r) × p^r

Where

p represents probability of success

q represents probability of failure.

n represents number of sample.

From the information given,

p = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

q = 1 - q = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

n = 8

1)The probability that none fails is

P(x = 0) = 8C0 × 0.9^(8 - 0) × 0.1^0

P(x = 0) = 0.43

2) The probability that one fails is

P(x = 1) = 8C1 × 0.9^(8 - 1) × 0.1^1

P(x = 1) = 0.38

3) The probability that four fails is

P(x = 4) = 8C4 × 0.9^(8 - 4) × 0.1^4

P(x = 4) = 0.0046

3) The probability that six fails is

P(x = 6) = 8C6 × 0.9^(8 - 6) × 0.1^6

P(x = 6) = 0.00002268

4) The probability that eight fails is

P(x = 8) = 8C8 × 0.1^(8 - 8) × 0.1^8

P(x = 8) = 0.00000001
