The slope of AC is -0.4

Proof:
In triangles ABC and DBE,
∠DBE is common to both triangles.
AB = 2DB (D is the midpoint of the interval AB)
Also, BC = 2BE (E is the midpoint of the interval BC)

Thus triangles ABC and DBE are similar in the ratio 2:1

Since, they are similar, ∠BDE must equal ∠BAC (corresponding angles in similar triangles)

If ∠BDE = ∠BAC, DE must be parallel to AC (corresponding angles are equal along parallel lines)
Thus, the slope of AC = the slope of DE
Thus, the slope of AC is -0.4

How do I solve for x?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The answer is 98

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees.

The sum of all the angles of a triangle always equals 180 degrees. Write down the difference you found when subtracting the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. This is the value of X.

62+20=82

180-82=98

98+20+62=180

I need help on 1 and 2 I’m very confused
Goryan [66]
1a. Split the larger piece(1/3) into half to show the two pieces
1b. Both are 3/6 or 1/2
2a. It shows 1/2 +1/4
2b.cut it so there are 3 1/4 pieces, so cut the 1/2 piece horizontally in the middle
2c. 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4. 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4

A lock has four dials. On each dial are the digits 0 to 9 how many possible combinations are there
madam [21]

Answer:

10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The combination consists of four digits, hence 0000 to 9999. There at 10^4 or 10,000 possible combinations (but only one that works).

3. What line forms when a plane and a cylinder intersect?
leonid [27]
The answer to this depends on the angle at which they intersect. If it intersects<span> the cylinder perpendicular to the axis then a circle is formed. </span><span>If the plane intersects the cylinder at an angle, it will form an ellipse. This will be true until the plan is parallel with the axis of the cylinder. At that point, the surface will become a rectangle.</span>

Assume that blood pressure readings are normally distributed with a mean of 124 and a standard deviation of 6.4. If 64 people ar
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

99.38%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean (m) is equal to 124, the standard deviation (sd) 6.4 and the sample size (n) = 64

They ask us for P (x <126)

For this, the first thing is to calculate z, which is given by the following equation:

z = (x - m) / (sd / (n ^ 1/2))

We have all these values, replacing we have:

z = (126 - 124) / (6.4 / (64 ^ 1/2))

z = 2.5

With the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at that value, the probability is:

P (z <2.5) = 0.9938

The probability is 99.38%
