QP=24 cm

RS=11.25 cm

QS=18.75 cm

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that TQ bisects <RTP

therefore(1)

consider ΔRQS and ΔRPT

QS||PT,RP and RT are transversals

(alternate angles)(2)

comparing (1) and (2)

and triangle SQT is isocelus

Therefore SQ=ST(sides opposite to equal angles in an isocelus triangle)

Therefore <RQS=<RPT(corresponding angles)

<RSQ=<RTP(corresponding angles)

therefore by AA criterion for similarity

ΔRQS~ΔRPT

According to the property of similar triangles

RQ/RP=RS/RT=QS/PT9/RP=X/30=QS/50\\9/RP=X/30=(30-X)/50\\X/30=(30-X)/50\\50X=30(30-X)\\50X=900-30X\\50X+30X=900\\80X=900\\X=900/80=11.25\\RS=11.25 cm\\QS=30-X=30-11.25\\QS=18.75 cm\\9/RP=X/30\\9/RP=11.25/30\\9*30/11.25=RP\\RP=24 cm

When the center of Earth is 3.8 × 105 kilometers from the center of the moon, the force of gravity between Earth and the moon is
kolezko [41]
Given:
r = 3.8x10⁵ km = 3.8x10⁸ m, the distance between the earth and moon,
F = 20.46x10²⁵ N, the gravitational force between the earth and the moon,
G = 6.674x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²), gravitational constant
M = 5.972x10²⁴ kg, the mass of the earth.

Let m = mass of the moon.
Then
F = (G*M*m)/r^2
or
m = (F*r^2)/(G*M)

In SI units,
m = [20.46×10²⁵ * (3.8×10⁸)²]/[6.674×10⁻¹¹ * 5.972×10²⁴]
    = 7.4125×10²⁸ kg

Answer:  7.4125x10²⁸ kg

The grams of sugar per serving for three brands of cereal are 4 g, 10 g, and 14 g. The probability of choosing a cereal with 4 g
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Expected\ Value = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cereal A

Probability = \frac{1}{4}

Grams = 4

Cereal B

Probability = \frac{5}{8}

Grams = 10

Cereal C

Probability = \frac{1}{8}

Grams = 14

Required

Determine the expected value of grams of sugar

This is calculated by multiplying the probability and grams of sugar in each cereal.

The results of the products are then added together

i.e.

Expected\ Value = \frac{1}{4} * 4 + \frac{5}{8} * 10 + \frac{1}{8} * 14

Expected\ Value = 1 + \frac{50}{8}+ \frac{14}{8}

Expected\ Value = 1 + 6.25 + 1.75

Expected\ Value = 9

Hence;

The expected value of grams of sugar is 9 grams
