We will calculate this by using ratios and because these two triangles are similar, which is very important.

Explanation:

We see that the FG = 9 corresponds to the VU = 21. Therefore, FH = 18 corresponds to the UW = x.

9 : 21 = 18 : x

x = (21*18)/9

x = 378/9

x = 42.

The correct answer is B. 42.

At 2:00 PM the temperature is 18°F. At 10:00 PM the temperature is -9°F.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

To figure out the change, we subtract the original temperature by the following after temperature.

18°F - original

-9°F - subsequent time after original

So we set up the equation;

18°F - (-9°F)

(Two negatives combine to form a positive)

18°F + 9°F

= <u>27°F</u> was the change in temperature.

Consider the one-sided confidence interval expressions for the mean of a normal population. Round your answers to 2 decimal plac

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: a) 0.84 b) 0.67 c) 1.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the standard normal distribution table for z-value , we have

(a) The value of $z_{\alpha}$ would result in a 80% one-sided confidence interval : $z_{(1-0.80)}=z_{0.20}=0.8416\approx0.84$

(b) The value of $z_{\alpha}$ would result in a 85% one-sided confidence interval : $z_{(1-0.85)}=z_{0.25}=0.6744897\approx0.67$

(c) The value of $z_{\alpha}$ would result in a 90% one-sided confidence interval : $z_{(1-0.90)}=z_{0.10}=1.2815515\approx1.28$

(3x+4)^2=14 what are the solutions?

kherson [118]

$\bf (3x+4)^2=14\implies \sqrt{(3x+4)^2}=\pm\sqrt{14}\implies 3x+4=\pm\sqrt{14}
\\\\\\
3x=\pm \sqrt{14}-4\implies x=\cfrac{\pm \sqrt{14}-4}{3}\implies x=
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{\sqrt{14}-4}{3}\\\\
\cfrac{- \sqrt{14}-4}{3}
\end{cases}$
