Answer:   14

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

Since BD is parallel to EG, then ∠BCF and ∠EFC are consecutive (same side interior) angles, which means they are supplementary angles.  

∠BCF + ∠EFC = 180

(5x - 66) + (2x + 50) = 180

7x - 16 = 180

7x        = 196

 x        = 28

∠BCF ≅ ∠EFC because they are vertical angles.

∠BCF = ∠EFC

5(28) - 66 = 9y - 52

140 - 66 + 52 = 9y

192 = 9y

14 = y

<h3>Answer: y = 14</h3>

===================================

Explanation:

The two angles involving x add up to 180 degrees. This is because they are same side interior angles (and because the horizontal lines are parallel)

So,

(angle BCF) + (angle EFC) = 180

(5x - 66) + (2x + 50) = 180

5x - 66 + 2x + 50 = 180

7x - 16 = 180

7x - 16+16 = 180+16 ... add 16 to both sides

7x = 196

7x/7 = 196/7 .... divide both sides by 7

x = 28

This will be used to help find y

Notice how the angles BCF and ACD are vertical angles, therefore they are congruent or the same measure

angle ACD = angle BCF

9y - 52 = 5x - 66

9y - 52 = 5*28 - 66 ..... replace x with 28 (since x = 28)

9y - 52 = 140 - 66

9y - 52 = 74

9y - 52+52 = 74+52 .... add 52 to both sides

9y = 126

9y/9 = 126/9 .... divide both sides by 9

y = 14

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

inland city has the coldest winter and warmest summer.

inland city, since it has a higher median of around 14.5 Celsius while coastal city has around 14 degrees Celsius

I would prefer to live in coastal city, since it has a smaller range of temperatures. Also, it has nice and mild weather: it has warmer winters than inland city, and cooler summers than inland city.

The Statistics Club at Woodvale College sold college Y-shirts as a fundraiser. The result of the sale are shown below. Choose on
zavuch27 [327]

We are asked to find the probability that the student sold 11-15 T-shirts or less than 6 T-shirts.

The total number of club members = 2 + 14 + 12 + 3 + 6 + 1 = 38

Probability of 11-15 T-shirts:

From the table, 3 club members bought 11 - 15 T-shirts.

So the probability is 3/38

Probability of less than 6 T-shirts:

Less than 6 T-shirts means 1 - 5 plus 0 T-shirts.

Form the table, 14 club members bought 1 - 5 T-shirts and 2 club members bought 0 T-shirts.

Total club member who bought 1 - 5 and 0 T-shirts = 14 + 2 = 16

So the probability is 16/38

Now we have to add them together to find the probability that the student sold 11-15 T-shirts or less than 6 T-shirts.

(or means to add)

So the probability is 3/38 + 16/38 = 19/38 = 0.5000

Therefore, the correct answer is option c.
