Answer: The answer is Yes.

Step-by-step explanation: The shapes that make up the Texas state flag are rectangle and octagon. Please see attached image.

We can clearly check from the figure that there are three rectangles and one octagon in the flag.

We know that in a rectangle, all the sides are not equal, only the opposite sides are equal, so this figure will not be a regular one.

But, we can check that the octagon in the flag is a regular one because all the eight sides here are equal in measurement.

Thus, there is a shape in the flag which is regular and that is an octagon present in the vertically placed rectangle at the left side of the flag.

3 rectangles. 1 star. The star is regular because all sides are of equal length and all angles are equal. The rectangles aren't regular because they have unequal sides when their angles are equal. P.S This is my first time answering a question. Don't be mad if its wrong.

-3/4x>12 solve for x

Answer:

$\Huge\boxed{\mathsf{\rightarrow X$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\Large\boxed{\mathsf{SUBJECT: MATH}}$

Isolate x on one side of the equation.

Find the value of x.

First, multiply -1 from both sides.

(-3/4x)(-1)<12(-1)

Solve.

12(-1)=-12

3/4x<-12

Next, multiply 4 from both sides.

4*3/4x<4(-12)

Solve.

Multiply the numbers from left to right.

4(-12)=-48

3x<-48

Then, divide by 3 from both sides.

3x/3<-48/3

Solve.

Divide the numbers from left to right.

-48/3=-16

X<-16

$\Large\boxed{\Rightarrow \mathsf{X$

The correct answer is x<-16.

A statistician uses Chebyshev's Theorem to estimate that at least 15 % of a population lies between the values 9 and 20. Use thi

Answer:

\mu = 14.5\\

\sigma = 5.071\\

k = 1.084

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a statistician uses Chebyshev's Theorem to estimate that at least 15 % of a population lies between the values 9 and 20.

i.e. his findings with respect to probability are

$P(9$

Recall Chebyshev's inequality that

$P(|X-\mu |\geq k\sigma )\leq {\frac {1}{k^{2}}}\\P(|X-\mu |\leq k\sigma )\geq 1-{\frac {1}{k^{2}}}\\$

Comparing with the Ii equation which is appropriate here we find that

$\mu =14.5$

Next what we find is

$k\sigma = 5.5\\1-\frac{1}{k^2} =0.15\\\frac{1}{k^2}=0.85\\k=1.084\\1.084 (\sigma) = 5.5\\\sigma = 5.071$

Thus from the given information we find that

$\mu = 14.5\\\sigma = 5.071\\k = 1.084$
