HELP!! 10 PTS! x = ____ y = ____

Mathematics
1 answer:
natulia [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: x= 24 degrees

y = 66 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for x and y as given in the diagram, we would apply the following rules

1)The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

2) sum of angles in a straight line is 180 degrees

Looking at the bigger triangle on the left, let the last unknown angle be z

70 degrees + 74 degrees + z degrees = 180 degrees.

z = 180 degrees - 74 degrees - 70 degrees = 36 degrees.

Looking at the straight line at the bottom, it contains angle z( 36 degrees) , angle y and 78 degrees.

Therefore

36 degrees + y degrees + 78 degrees = 180

y = (180 -36 -78) degrees

y = 66 degrees

x + y(66 degrees) + 90 degrees = 180

x = (180 -66-90) degrees

x = 24 degrees

4 2/3 + 1 3/4 give your answer as a mixed number
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

6 5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression :

4 2/3 + 1 3/4

The sum of the numbers :

4 2/3 + 1 3/4

14/3 + 7/4

L.C.M of 3 and 4 = 12

(56 + 21) / 12

77 / 12

= 6 5/12

Find the sum of the first ten prime numbers. Find the sum of the first ten prime numbers .​
natali 33 [55]

The sum of the first ten prime numbers is 129.

<h3>What is a prime number?</h3>

The prime numbers are those numbers that have only one factor namely 1 and the number itself.

The first 10 prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, and 29.

Their sum is

2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29

= 129

Hence, the sum of the first ten prime numbers is 129.

Amara was working on a report on Greek and Egyptian mathematicians. She decided to find a 98 percent confidence interval for the
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

E. The entire population is measured in both cases, so the actual difference in means can be computed and a confidence interval should not be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

The entire population of Greek and Egyptian mathematicians was already measured by Amara. She can measure the actual difference in the mean. Therefore, she needn't use a confidence interval. It is mostly common for a researcher to be more interested in the difference between means than in the specific values of the means. The difference in sample means is used to compute the difference in population means.

Amara's sample is a random selection of Greek and Egyptian mathematicians. It is a smaller group drawn from the population that has the characteristics of the entire population. The observations and conclusions made against the sample data are attributed to the population. In this case, the entire position is measured.

A t-test is a type of inferential statistic used to determine if there is a significant difference between the means of two groups (Greek and Egyptian mathematicians) which may be related in certain features. It is mostly used when the data sets, like the data set recorded as the outcome from rolling a die 50 times, would follow a normal distribution and may have unknown variances. A t-test is used as a hypothesis testing tool, which allows testing of an assumption applicable to a population. Once the actual difference is known, a confidence interval should not be used.

What is the equation of the directrix of a parabola defined by the equation y = x2 − 2x − 3?

Line segment CD has a length of 3 units. It is translated 2 units to the right on a coordinate plane to obtain line segment C'D'
velikii [3]
It is still 3 units. Translating it to the right moves it as a whole, as a whole, it has three units, so after translating it over, it still has three units.
