Answer:

D. segment TU is proportional to segment WX and ∠S is congruent to ∠V

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that, triangles STU is similar to triangle VWX.

Now, when two triangles are similar, the order of the letters is important and so, the corresponding angles are congruent (equal) and the corresponding sides are proportional.

So, as ΔSTU is similar to ΔVWX.

ST is proportional to VW and TU is proportional to WX

∠S is congruent to ∠V and ∠U is congruent to ∠X.

Therefore, according to the options, we see that side TU is proportional to side WX and ∠S is congruent to ∠V.

Hence, option D is correct.

using the midpoint formula, solve for the midpoint of the segment with these pairs of endpoints (-11,30) and (-26,-2)

REY [17]

Answer:

Midpoint is $(\frac{-37 }{2}, 14)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint = $(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2} }{2})$

= $(\frac{-11 -26}{2}, \frac{30 - 2 }{2})$

= $(\frac{-37 }{2}, \frac{28 }{2})$

= $(\frac{-37 }{2}, 14)$

Midpoint is (-37/2, 14)

The amount of time, in minutes, that a woman must wait for a cab is uniformly distributed between zero and 12 minutes, inclusive

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

$P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b$

And using this formula we have this:

$P(X$

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest that a woman must wait for a cab"the amount of time in minutes " and we know that the distribution for this random variable is given by:

$X \sim Unif (a=0, b =12)$

And we want to find the following probability:

$P(X$

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

$P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b$

And using this formula we have this:

$P(X$

Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917
