x = 32°

The triangle has 2 equal sides and is therefore isosceles, thus the 2 base angles are also congruent.

The 2 base angles are of size x°

x = $\frac{180 - 116}{2}$ = $\frac{64}{2}$ = 32

This is an isosceles triangle (meaning two sides have equal lengths).

If the sides are equal, then their corresponding angles are congruent (equal).

Let's call the unlabeled angle "y".

side length 17 has corresponding angle 116°

side length 10 has corresponding angle x°

the other side length 10 has corresponding angle y°

since the side lengths of 10 correspond to angle x and angle y, then ∠x = ∠y.

NEXT, the sum of the angles of a triangle = 180°

∠x + ∠y + 116° = 180°

∠x + ∠x + 116° = 180° substituted ∠y with ∠x since they are congruent

2(∠x) + 116° = 180° simplified (added like terms)

2(∠x) = 64° subtracted 116° from both sides

∠x = 32° divided both sides by 2

Answer: x = 32°

What numbers are divisble by 23 but are between 2 and 10?

zloy xaker [14]

That is impossible.

For a number to be divisible by 23, it has to be greater than 23.

A number cannot be greater than 23, if you have restricted it to be within the numbers 2 and 10.

4-It has been a bad day for the market, with 70% of securities losing value. You are evaluating a portfolio of 20 securities and

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

b) 0.0007

c) 0.4163

d) 0.2375

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following:

We treat securities lose value as a success.

P(Security lose value) = 70% = 0.7

Then the securities lose value follows a binomial distribution, where

$P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x}.p^x.(1-p)^{n-x}$

where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.

Now, we are given n = 20.

a) Assumptions

There are 20 independent trials.
Each trial have two possible outcome: security loose value or security does not lose value.
The probability for success of each trial is same, p = 0.7

b) P(all 20 securities lose value)

We have to evaluate:

$P(x = 20)\\= \binom{20}{0}(0.7)^0(1-0.7)^{20}\\= 0.0007$

0.0007 is the probability that all 20 securities lose value.

c) P(at least 15 of them lose value.)

$P(x \geq 15)\\= P(x=15) + P(x = 16) + P(x=17) + P(x=18) +P(x = 19) +P(x = 20)\\ \binom{20}{15}(0.7)^{15}(1-0.7)^{5} +...+ \binom{20}{20}(0.7)^{20}(1-0.7)^{0} \\=0.4163$

d) P(less than 5 of them gain value.)

P(gain value) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

$P(x < 5)\\= P(x=0) + P(x = 1) + P(x=2) + P(x=3) +P(x = 4)\\ \binom{20}{0}(0.3)^{0}(1-0.3)^{20} +...+ \binom{20}{4}(0.3)^{4}(1-0.3)^{16} \\=0.2375$

Males have red blood cell counts with a mean of 4.719 and a standard deviation of .490, while females have red blood cell counts

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The female has a higher count relative to the sample of females than the male relative to the sample of males.

Explanation:

When you want to compare the means of two samples with different statistics you may use the z-score.

The z-score measures how far a value (data point) is from the mean, in terms of the standard deviation.

The z-score is calculated as:

$z-score=(x-\mu )}/\sigma$

Where:

$x=\text{value of the data}\\\\\mu =mean\\\\\sigma = \text{standard deviation}$

1. Male with a count of 5.58

$z-score=(5.58-4.719)/0.490=1.757$

2. Female with a count of 5.23

$z-score=(5.23-4.349)/0.402=2.192$

Therefor, the z-score of the female is greater than the z-score of the male.

The greater z-score means that, relative to her group, the female has a higher count than the male.

Write a quadratic function in standard form with a leading coefficient of 1 for the given set of zeros. 7 and 4

Viefleur [7K]

We are given : Zeros x=7 and x=4 and leading coefficent 1.

In order to find the quadratic function in standard form, we need to find the factors of quadratic function first and the multiply by given leading coefficent.

For the given zeros x=7 and x=4, we get the factors (x-7) and (x-4).

So, we need to multiply (x-7) and (x-4) by foil method.

We get

(x-7)(x-4) = x*x + x* -4 -7*x -7*-4

x^2 -4x -7x +28.

Combining like terms, we get

-4x-7x = -11x

x^2 -4x -7x +28 = x^2 -11x +28.

Now, we need to multiply x^2 -11x +28 quadratic by leading coefficent 1.

We get

1(x^2 -11x +28) = x^2 -11x +28.

Therefore, the required quadratic function in standard form is x^2 -11x +28.
