<h3>Answer: C) 0</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

If points F and E are the midpoints of segment VU and segment ST respectively, then segment FE is the midsegment of the trapezoid. The midsegment is parallel to the bases, and the midsegment's length is found by adding up the bases VS and UT, then dividing by 2.

(VS + UT)/2 = FE

(29 + x+17)/2 = 23 ... plug in given info; isolate x

(x+46)/2 = 23

x+46 = 23*2 ... multiply both sides by 2

x+46 = 46

x = 46-46 ... subtract 46 from both sides

Is (5,6.5) a solution to y= -1/2x + 9?

Jlenok [28]

6.5 = - 1/2(5) + 9

6.5 = - 2.5 + 9 which is the same as 6.5 = 9 - 2.5

6.5 = 6.5

So yes, this ordered pair IS a solution.

Find a cartesian equation for the curve. r = 9 sin(θ)

Paul [167]

For this case we have the following equation:
r = 9 sin (θ)
In addition, we have the following change of variables:
y = r * sine (θ)
Rewriting the equation we have:
r = 9 sin (θ)
r = 9 (y / r)
r ^ 2 = 9y
On the other hand:
r ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + y ^ 2
Substituting values:
x ^ 2 + y ^ 2 = 9y
Rewriting:
x ^ 2 + y ^ 2 - 9y = 0
Completing squares:
x ^ 2 + y ^ 2 - 9y + (-9/2) ^ 2 = (-9/2) ^ 2
Rewriting:
x ^ 2 + 1/4 (2y-9) ^ 2 = 81/4
4x ^ 2 + (2y-9) ^ 2 = 81
Answer:
The Cartesian equation is:
4x ^ 2 + (2y-9) ^ 2 = 81

Suppose that at a state college, a random sample of 41 students is drawn, and each of the 41 students in the sample is asked to

ra1l [238]

Answer:

The confidence interval for 90% confidence would be narrower than the 95% confidence

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 41

For a 95% confidence the level of significance is $\alpha = [100 - 95]\% = 0.05$ and

the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is $Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.05 }{2} }= 1.96$

For a 90% confidence the level of significance is $\alpha = [100 - 90]\% = 0.10$ and

the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is $Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.10 }{2} }= 1.645$

So we see with decreasing confidence level the critical value decrease

Now the margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }$

given that other values are constant and only $Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$ is varying we have that

$E\ \ \alpha \ \ Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$

Hence for reducing confidence level the margin of error will be reducing

The confidence interval is mathematically represented as

$\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E$

Now looking at the above formula and information that we have deduced so far we can infer that as the confidence level reduces , the critical value reduces, the margin of error reduces and the confidence interval becomes narrower

Last week, the price of apples at a grocery store was $1.60 per pound. This week, apples at the same grocery store are on sale a

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

6.48 dollars total,

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would want to multiply the amount of money per pound, by the amount of pounds. 1.60 multiplied by 4 1/2 or 4.5, would equal to 7.2 dollars. In order to find 10% of 7.2, your would need to multiply 7.2 by 0.10, which would give you 0.72. Then you would subtract 7.2 by 0.72 to get 6.48. So your answer would be 6.48 dollars. Hoped this helped.

Which operation, when performed on two polynomials, always results in a polynomial? Select all that apply.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

B. Division

You cannot add anything when you divide, so it would remain a polynomial.
