Answer:

  AE = 15 cm; ED = 18 cm; AD = 15 cm (given)

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔBEC ~ ΔAED so ...

   AD/BC = AE/BE = (BE+AB)/BE = 1 + AB/BE

Substituting given numbers (lengths in centimeters), we have ...

  15/10 = 1 + 5/BE

  1/2 = 5/BE

  BE = 10

Similarly, ...

  1/2 = 6/CE

  CE = 12

Then the unknown sides are ...

  AE = AB + BE = 5 + 10 = 15 . . . cm

  ED = CE + CD = 12 + 6 = 18 . . . cm

Imagine that this graph represents the distance Brianna travels to get to her babysitting job with respect to time. Describe a r
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The distance time graph shows the velocity with which Brianna traveled.

From t= 0 to t = 6:

For every 2 minutes, distance increase by one miles. She covers 3 miles in 6 minutes.

So the velocity is given by:

velocity = change of distance/ change of time

velocity = 3/6

velocity = 0.5 miles/minutes

From t=6 to t=10

As there is no change in distance, the velocity of the object is 0, it means Brianna is stationary from t=6 to t=10

From t=10 to t=16

Distance covered = 7 miles - 3 miles = 4 miles

Time taken = 16 - 10  = 6 minutes

Velocity = 0.67 miles/minutes

Determine whether the value is a discrete random​ variable, continuous random​ variable, or not a random variable. a. The number
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Discrete variables are those whose distribution will only take a finite number of values which are represented by integer values only.

Continous variables on the other hand could have an infinite number of points inbetween two integer values. With the values inbetween being decimals.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The number of textbook authors now sitting at a computer :

A discrete random variable

Number of authors will be an integer value.

b. The height of a randomly selected giraffe ;

Continous random variable

Possible height value : h > 0

c. The responce to the survey question "Did you smoke in the last week"

It is not a random Variable

The response isn't numeric

d. The amount of rain in City B during April

It is a continous random variable

Possible values ; amount of rain > 0

e. The time it takes to fly from City A to City B

It is a continous random variable

Time could take up seconds value ;

Possible values : t > 0

f. The number of light bulbs that burn out in the text week in a room with 17 bulbs

It is a discrete random variable

Number of bulbs is defined
