The two horizontal lines are parallel.
This makes the 80 degree angle and the angle ox x and 20 degrees are alternate interior angles and are the same.
This means x + 20 needs to equal 80.
X = 80-20 = 60 degrees.

Answer:
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a number of ways to get there, but the short of it is that a horizontal line has the equation ...
y = constant
The constant value must be chosen to match the y-value of points on the line. Here, that is 5. The equation of the line is ...
y = 5
_____
<em>Another way</em>
You can write the equation in slope-intercept form if you know the slope and the y-intercept. The line crosses the y-axis at y = 5, so that is the value of the y-intercept.
The "rise" between the two points is 5 -5 = 0. The "run" between the two points is 5-0 = 5, so the slope is ...
m = rise/run = 0/5 = 0
Then the slope-intercept equation is ...
y = mx + b . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
y = 0x +5
Simplifying, we get ...
y = 5
Answer:
So about 95 percent of the observations lie between 480 and 520.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
The mean is 500 and the standard deviation is 10.
About 95 percent of the observations lie between what two values?
From the Empirical Rule, this is from 500 - 2*10 = 480 to 500 + 2*10 = 520.
So about 95 percent of the observations lie between 480 and 520.
