<h3>Answer:</h3>

3 11/15 cm

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

AE is the angle bisector of ∠A, so divides the sides of the triangle into a proportion:

... BE:CE = BA:CA = 7:8

Then ...

... BE:BC = 7 : (7+8) = 7:15

ΔDBE ~ ΔABC, so DE = 7/15 × AC

... DE = 7/15 × 8 cm = (56/15) cm

... DE = 3 11/15 cm

Scores for a common standardized college aptitude test are normally distributed with a mean of 506 and a standard deviation of 1
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

25.14% probability that his score is at least 582.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 506, \sigma = 114

If 1 of the men is randomly selected, find the probability that his score is at least 582.5.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 582.5. So

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

Z = \frac{582.5 - 506}{114}

Z = 0.67

Z = 0.67 has a pvalue of 0.7486

1 - 0.7486 = 0.2514

25.14% probability that his score is at least 582.5.

Point P(3, 9) in the coordinate plane is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin. What are the coordinates of its i
Bumek [7]

Answer:

  P'(-9, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The transformation for rotation counterclockwise about the origin by some angle α will be ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (x·cos(α) -y·sin(α), x·sin(α) +y·cos(α))

When the angle is α = 90°, this reduces to ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)

You have (x, y) = (3, 9), so the image point is P'(-9, 3).

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The "work" is applying the right sign and choosing the right coordinate to fill in the values (-y, x). I find it easier to look up the transformations for ±90° and 180°, rather than try to derive them from first principles every time. Your text may have a list:

  • 90° CCW or 270° CW: (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)
  • 90° CW or 270° CCW: (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)
  • 180°: (x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y)
