Answer:

The value of x is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we have that

m∠NQM=m∠PQR -----> given problem

substitute the given values and solve for x

$2x+8=x+22$

Group terms that contain the same variable and combine like terms

$2x-x=22-8\\x=14$

The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day.

valina [46]

Answer:

A sample of 179 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.85}{2} = 0.075$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.075 = 0.925$ , so Z = 1.44.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 1.69 gallon?

This means that $\sigma = \sqrt{1.69} = 1.3$

If they are using a 85% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of water?

A sample of n is needed, and n is found for M = 0.14. So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14 = 1.44\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14\sqrt{n} = 1.44*1.3$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14})^2$

$n = 178.8$

Rounding up

A sample of 179 is needed.

Will a 2 quart pitcher hold 8 cups,1/4 cup,and 1/3 cup

Ghella [55]

Yes it will. A 2 quart pitcher is equal to 8 cups, and since 1/4 and 1/3 are less it can still hold it.

A triangle has a height that is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/sec and its area is increasing at a rate of 4 cm2/sec. Find the rat

lesya [120]

Answer:

The value of rate of which the base is changing $\frac{dB}{dt}$ = - 3 $\frac{cm}{s}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 20 $cm^{2}$

height = 4 cm

$\frac{dH}{dt} = 2 \frac{cm}{sec}$

$\frac{dA}{dt} =$ $2 \ \frac{cm^{2} }{sec}$

we know that area of the triangle is given by

$A= \frac{1}{2} B H$

$B = \frac{2A}{H}$

$B = \frac{2 (20)}{4}$

B = 10 cm

Rate of change of area is given by

$\frac{dA}{dT} = \frac{1}{2} [B\frac{dH}{dt} + H \frac{dB}{dt} ]$

4 = 0.5 [10 × 2 + 4 $\frac{dB}{dt}$ ]

$\frac{dB}{dt}$ = - 3 $\frac{cm}{s}$

This is the value of rate of which the base is changing.
