Answer:

More than 5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 options for the last digit (0, 1, 2.....9)

Probof 0.5 means 50% chance of getting it right,

Which would happen when he has tried 50% of the total possibilities, which are 10

50% of 10 = 5

He'll have to dial 5 times for a probability of 0.5.

More than 5 times for a probability of more than 0.5

One of the angles formed by two intersecting lines is 30°. What is the measure of the other three angles?
Helen [10]

Answer:

30° 150° 150°

Step-by-step explanation:

there are multiple ways you could get to this answer. the easiest way is to use linear angles (angles that will add up to 180°). so 180°-30°=150°. then use vertical angles (angles across from each other at an intersection are always equal) and figure out that 30° and 150° are the last two angles

Karolina [17]

Answer:

x = 4

The quadrilateral is a rectangle and opposite sides are congruent, hence

10 + 2x = 18 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4
