Answer:

MG = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles EML and EGF are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{EM}{EG}$ = $\frac{EL}{EF}$ , and substituting values

$\frac{16}{5x+2}$ = $\frac{28}{126}$ ( cross- multiply )

28(5x + 2) = 2016 ( divide both sides by 28 )

5x + 2 = 72 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

5x = 70 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 14

Thus

EG = 5x + 2 = 5(14) + 2 = 70 + 2 = 72

Hence

MG = EG - EM = 72 - 16 = 56

A golfer keeps track of his score for playing nine holes of golf (half a normal golf round). His mean score is 8080 with a sta

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Therefore the mean and standard deviation of his total score if he plays a full 18 holes are 160 and $11\sqrt2$ respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

For the first 9 holes X:

E(X) = 80

SD(X)=13

For the second 9 holes Y:

E(Y) = 80

SD(Y)=13

For the sum W=X+Y, the following properties holds for means , variance and standard deviation :

E(W)=E(X)+E(Y)

and

V(W)=V(X)+V(Y)

⇒SD²(W)=SD²(X)+SD²(Y) [ Variance = (standard deviation)²]

$\Rightarrow SD(W)=\sqrt{SD^2(X)+SD^2(Y)}$

∴E(W)=E(X)+E(Y) = 80 +80=160

and

∴ $SD(W)=\sqrt{SD^2(X)+SD^2(Y)}$

$=\sqrt{11^2+11^2}$

$=\sqrt{2.11^2}$

$=11\sqrt2$

Therefore the mean and standard deviation of his total score if he plays a full 18 holes are 160 and $11\sqrt2$ respectively.

4. Tell whether the systems have one solution,

hjlf

Answer:

x= 2,

,y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [1] for the variable y

[1] y = 5x - 5

// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]

[2] -4x + 2•(5x-5) = 2

[2] 6x = 12

// Solve equation [2] for the variable x

[2] 6x = 12

[2] x = 2

// By now we know this much :

x = 2

y = 5x-5

// Use the x value to solve for y

y = 5(2)-5 = 5

Solution :

{x,y} = {2,5}

HELPPPP ME PLEASE

-BARSIC- [3]

The best fit curve for #1 is D. The easiest way to check these is by pluggin in to the equation and seeing if they come close. By doing just the first ordered pair along, it is apparent that only D will work.

With x = 1 input

A) -36

B) 24.2

C) 17.5

D) 11.58

#2 is also D. We can tell this because multiplying any of these options always results in a middle term between them. For instance, if you multiply out C, you will not only get x^4 and x^4, but you will also get terms such as 4x^2y^2 in the middle.
