Answer:

Option c

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a picture of a circle with two arcs angled 54 and 86.

a,b,c are the angles shown as the angle between a chord and tangent, angle between diameter and a chord and also angle between another chord and diameter

Recall the subtended angle theorem for circles

Angle subtended at the centre is double angle subtended at the circumference

Since arc below subtends 86 with centre it will subtend 43 degrees at the circumference.

ie. c= 43 degrees...i

Next is sum of a+b.

Recall tangent theorem that any tangent is perpendicular to the radius at the contact point.  Here a+b is the angle between tangent and radius

Hence a+b=90

Together

a+b+c = 133 degrees

Option c

The Federal Government is stepping up efforts to reduce average response times of fire departments to fire calls. Nationwide, th
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: in order to qualify, the time must be at least 15.93 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable representing the average response times of fire departments to fire calls. Since it follows a normal distribution, we will determine the z score by applying the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 12.8 minutes

σ = 3.7 minutes

in order to qualify for the special safety award, the probability value would be to the right of the z score corresponding to 80%

The z score corresponding to 80% on the normal distribution table is 0.845

Therefore,

0.845 = (x - 12.8)/3.7

0.845 × 3.7 = x - 12.8

3.13 = x - 12.8

x = 12.8 + 3.13 = 15.93
