So since they are similar
AC/BC=CD/CE

so
(66-x)/30=(x+4)/5
times both sides by 5
(66-x)/6=x+4
times both sides by 6
66-x=6(x+4)
distribute
66-x=6x+24
add x to both sides
66=7x+24
minus 24 from both sides
42=7x
divide both sides by 7
6=x
x=6 units

Smart enough to answer this question? Gracie, Mary, and Nancy each have a small collection of seashells. Gracie has 5 more than
adelina 88 [10]
X = mary's shells
g = 1 1/4x + 5
n = 1 1/2x+ 1
g = n

1 1/4x + 5 = 1 1/2x + 1
5/4x + 5 = 3/2x + 1...multiply by common denominator of 4, this will get rid of fractions...however, this is optional...u can work with fractions if u wish.
5x + 20 = 6x + 4
5x - 6x = 4 - 20
-x = - 16
x = 16....so Mary has 16 shells

inysia [295]

Answer:

<u>B. There is sufficient evidence that the mean of the pressure required to open a certain valve has changed. </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We make this conclusion based on these reasons:

  1. We are told that the "null hypothesis was rejected" after the <em>"manager feels that the pressure variability has changed.,</em> meaning the <u>null hypothesis was the opposite of what occurred; that is to say, it is the alternate hypothesis that proved true instead.</u>
  2. <em>"changes in the manufacturing​ process"</em> form what can be called "sufficient evidence" that the mean of the pressure required to open the valve has changed, thereby going against the null hypothesis.

It is based on the above reasons that the null hypothesis was rejected.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

The correct answer is: <span>C) The base of the cone and the top of the cylinder have the same area. </span>The cone has the smallest volume of the 2 figures. This is because the formula for the cylinder is b x h, the formula for the cone is 1/3(b x h) so if they have same height and base area cylinder would have larger volume because, for the cylinder, a formula is one-third of b x h. Hope I helped!!  : )

hope this helps you
