Answer:
m∠WXZ = 38°
m∠ZXY = 52°
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question
- ∠WXZ and ∠ZXY are two adjacent angles and formed together ∠WXY
- That means the measure of ∠WXY equal the sum of measures of ∠WXZ and ∠ZXY
∵ ∠WXY is a right angle
→ That means its measure is 90°
∴ m∠WXY = 90°
∵ m∠WXZ + m∠ZXY = m∠WXY
∵ m∠WXZ = (5x + 3)°
∵ m∠ZXY = (8x - 4)°
∵ m∠WXY = 90°
→ Substitute their values in the equation above
∴ (5x + 3) + (8x - 4) = 90
→ Add the like terms in the left side
∵ (5x + 8x) + (3 - 4) = 90
∴ 13x + (-1) = 90
∴ 13x - 1 = 90
→ Add 1 to both sides
∴ 13x - 1 + 1 = 90 + 1
∴ 13x = 91
→ Divide both sides by 13
∴
∴ x = 7
→ To find the measure of each angle substitute x by 7 in their measures
∵ m∠WXZ = 5x + 3
∴ m∠WXZ = 5(7) + 3
∴ m∠WXZ = 35 + 3
∴ m∠WXZ = 38°
∵ m∠ZXY = 8x - 4
∴ m∠ZXY = 8(7) - 4
∴ m∠ZXY = 56 - 4
∴ m∠ZXY = 52°
Answer:
The 80% confidence interval for the mean
(4.6199 , 4.7801)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Explanation</u>:-
Assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 1
Given the Population standard deviation 'σ' = 1
The study found that for a sample of 256 teenagers the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 4.7
given sample size 'n' = 256
mean of the sample 'x⁻' = 4.7
<u>confidence interval for the mean</u>
The 80% confidence interval for the mean is determined by
the z-score of 80% level of significance = 1.282
(4.7 - 0.0801 , 4.7 +0.0801)
(4.6199 , 4.7801)
<u>Conclusion</u>:-
The 80% confidence interval for the mean
(4.6199 , 4.7801)
