Answer:

The measure of the complement is 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Two angles are supplementary if their sum is equal to 180 degrees

Two angles are complementary if their sum is equal to 90 degrees

Let

x -----> the measure of an angle

we know that

180°-x=4(90°-x)

Solve for x

180°-x=360°-4x

4x-x=360°-180°

3x=180°

x=60°

Find the complement

90°-x=90°-60°=30°

Answer:

30⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle = x

Complement = 90 - x

Supplement = 180 - x

Given :

180 - x = 4 (90 - x)

180 - x = 360 - 4x

3x = 180

x = 60

Complement = 90 - 60 = 30

kiruha [24]

Answer:

none (0) ...

think of two lines (or chop sticks places on a table) ...

there are three (3) possible orientations that they can be in.

1) they cross each other at one point

2) they are on top of each other (they touch everywhere)

3) they are side by side (parallel)

in situation one we say we have a solution

in situation two we say there is an infinite solutions (the same line)

in situation three (your problem) we say there is no solution (parallel lines)

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

(a) The expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.

(b) The probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X can be defined as the number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card

The probability that a guest paying by American Express credit card is, p = 0.20.

The random variable X follows a Geometric distribution since it is defined as the number of trials before the first success.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x}p;\ x=0,1,2,3...,\ 0$

(a)

The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

$E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}$

Compute the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card as follows:

$E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}$

$=\frac{1-0.20}{0.20}$

$=4$

Thus, the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.

(b)

Compute the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout as follows:

$P(X=10)=(1-0.20)^{10}\times0.20$

$=0.1073741824\times 0.20\\=0.02147483648\\\approx0.0215$

Thus, the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.
