The Altitude from A on BC will be Perpendicular to the linr BC whose slope is 2/5, so the Altitudes slope will be negative reciprocal of 2/5 i.e -5/2

The altitude's slope must be perpendicular to that of the line. 

The slope of segment BC is 2/5. The slope of the altitude must be perpendicular to 2/5. Since the negative reciprocal of 2/5 is -5/2, then the slope of the altitude is -5/2.

Find the measure of angle A
blagie [28]

Answer:

43°

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 53)° + (x + 74)° + 73° = 180°

(x + 53 + x + 74)° = 180° - 73°

(2x + 127)° = 107°

2x + 127 = 107

2x = 107 - 127

2x = - 20

x = - 20/2

x = - 10

m\angle A = (x +53)\degree \\\\m\angle A = (-10 +53)\degree \\\\m\angle A = 43\degree \\\\

The amount of time the husband and the wife spend on house work is measured for 15 women and their 15 husbands. For the wives th
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is z = -0.877.

Step-by-step explanation:

Testing the difference in mean time spent on housework between husbands and wives.

At the null hypothesis, we test if there is no difference, that is, the subtraction of the means is 0:

H_0: \mu_H - \mu_W = 0

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if there is a difference, that is, the subtraction of the means is different from 0.

H_1: \mu_H - \mu_W \neq 0

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error.

0 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0

For the wives the mean was 7 hours/week and for the husbands the mean was 4.5 hours/week. The standard deviation of the differences in time spent on house work was 2.85.

This means that X = 4.5 - 7 = -2.5, s = 2.85

What is the value of the test statistic for testing the difference in mean time spent on housework between husbands and wives?

z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

z = \frac{-2.5 - 0}{2.85}

z = -0.877

The value of the test statistic is z = -0.877.

A line of best fit predicts that when x equals 28, y will equal 27.255, but y actually equals 26. What is the residual in this c
zlopas [31]

Answer:

C) -1.255

Step-by-step explanation:

We are tasked to solve for the residual value given that when x equals 29, y will be equals to 27.255. But, when it is tested, y actual value is 26. The formula in solving residual is shown below:

Residual value = Observed value - predicted value

Residual value =  26 - 27.255

Residual values = -1.255

The answer is -1.255 for residual value.

7+3x-12x=3x+1 is it Infinitely many solutions, one solution, or no solutions with steps please
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

  • One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 7 + 3x - 12x = 3x + 1
  • 7 - 9x = 3x + 1
  • 3x + 9x = 7 - 1
  • 12x = 6
  • x = 6/12
  • x = 1/2

It has one solution
