A straight line is 180º . This means that
3x+6x=180.

3(20)+6(20)=180
X=20

nika2105 [10]
Remember
all angles add to 180

x+y+z=180
one is 2 times as another
x=2y
measure of 3rd angle (z) is 20 more than smalllest
since y has to be doubled to get x, y is smallest
z is 20 more than y
z=20+y


we have
x=2y
z=20+y
sub those
x+y+z=180
2y+y+20+y=180
4y+20=180
minus 20 both sides
4y=160
divide 4
y=40
sub back
x=2y
x=2(40)
x=80
z=20+y
z=20+40
z=60

the angles are
80 degrees, 40 degrees, 60 degrees

Recent homebuyers from a local developer allege that 30% of the houses this developer constructs have some major defect that wil
umka21 [38]

Answer:

3.54% probability of observing at most two defective homes out of a random sample of 20

Step-by-step explanation:

For each house that this developer constructs, there are only two possible outcomes. Either there are some major defect that will require substantial repairs, or there is not. The probability of a house having some major defect that will require substantial repairs is independent of other houses. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

30% of the houses this developer constructs have some major defect that will require substantial repairs.

This means that p = 0.3

If the allegation is correct, what is the probability of observing at most two defective homes out of a random sample of 20

This is P(X \leq 2) when n = 20. So

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{20} = 0.0008

P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{19} = 0.0068

P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{18} = 0.0278

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0008 + 0.0068 + 0.0278 = 0.0354

3.54% probability of observing at most two defective homes out of a random sample of 20

Solutions of x^2-2x=8
Andreyy89

Answer:

-√2

Step-by-step explanation:

  x² - 2x = 8          Apply the square root to both sides

√x² - 2x = √8        Divide both sides by -2

           x = -√2

    <u><em>Extra info:</em></u>

√8 = 2√2 = 2.828427125  

-√2 = -1.414213562
