Two number cubes are rolled to determine how a token moves on a game board. The sides of each number cube are numbered 1, 2, 3,

4, 5 and 6.
There are two options describing how the token will be moved.


Option A: If the product is even, move forward 7 spaces. Otherwise, move backward 5.


Option B: If the product is even, move forward 5 spaces. Otherwise, move backward 4.


Use mathematical expectation to determine which option offers the greater likelihood of moving closer to the finish line on the game board.


Which statement best explains the better option?





The mathematical expectation of Option A is 2.75. The mathematical expectation of Option B is 4. Option B offers a greater likelihood of advancing to the finish line.

Consider a convex hexagon in which all pairs of opposite sides are parallel. Prove that if one pair of opposite sides have equal
hjlf

A pair of the opposite sides of a hexagon has equal length and this is proved below.

<h3>How to illustrate the hexagon?</h3>

It should be noted that a hexagon is a polygon that has six sides.

In this case, it has 6 sides.

The total angles will be:

= (n - 2) × 180

= (6 - 2) × 180

= 720°

Each angle will hence be:

= 720°/6

= 120°

Each angle are equal and this illustrates that the parallel sides are equal.

A diagram is attached to illustrate the pair of parallel sides.

What else would need to be congruent to show that A ABC= AXYZ by ASA?
fredd [130]

Answer:

D. AC ≅ XZ

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that two triangles are congruent by the Angle-Side-Angle theorem, both triangles must have two corresponding angles that are congruent to each other in each triangle, and also a corresponding included side in each triangle that are congruent.

Thus, we are given that,

<X ≅ <A and <Z ≅ <C, therefore, what is needed is a corresponding included angle in each triangle that are congruent to each other, which are,

AC and XZ

Therefore, what is needed is:

AC ≅ XZ

Can someone help me with this
V125BC [204]

Answer:  Period = 4

               Amplitude = 3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Period is the interval of one "cycle" before the pattern repeats.

If you notice that when x = 0, y = -4.  

When does the pattern repeat (reach -4 again)?

Answer: when x = 4.

So the interval of one "cycle" is 4 units -->  Period = 4.

Amplitude=\dfrac{Max-Min}{2}=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{2}=\dfrac{6}{2}=\bold{\large\boxed{3}}
