Point F is on line segment \overline{EG}

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pachacha [2.7K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

4 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

EF=x

FG=3x-5

EG=5x−8

Since F is on line segment \overline{EG}

EG=EF+FG

5x−8=x+3x-5

5x-8=4x-5

Collect like terms

5x-4x=-5+8

x=3 Units

Therefore:

\overline{FG}=3x-5\\=3(3)-5\\=9-5\\$=4 Units

N a​ region, there is a 0.70.7 probability chance that a randomly selected person of the population has brown eyes. assume 1414
taurus [48]
'll use the binomial approach. We need to calculate the probabilities that 9, 10 or 11 
<span>people have brown eyes. The probability that any one person has brown eyes is 0.8, </span>
<span>so the probability that they don't is 1 - 0.8 = 0.2. So the appropriate binomial terms are </span>

<span>(11 C 9)(0.8)^9*(0.2)^2 + (11 C 10)(0.8)^10*(0.2)^1 + (11 C 11)(0.8)^11*(0.2)^0 = </span>

<span>0.2953 + 0.2362 + 0.0859 = 0.6174, or about 61.7 %. Since this is over 50%, it </span>

<span>is more likely than not that 9 of 11 randomly chosen people have brown eyes, at </span>
<span>least in this region. </span>

<span>Note that (n C r) = n!/((n-r)!*r!). So (11 C 9) = 55, (11 C 10) = 11 and (11 C 0) = 1.</span>

The results of the survey will most likely suffer from wording bias.

<h3><u>Wording Bias</u></h3>

Thus, the word "wasteful" induces respondents to answer the question bearing in mind the negative criticism made by the questioner, which may influence the final answer.

If the basketball player scored 15 baskets out of 21 tries. How many tries would it take to score 20 baskets?
Evgen [1.6K]
28 tries. The ratio is 5:7, so once you multiply 5 by 4 to get 20, you do the same to 7 to get 28.

Which of the following is a factor of x2 − 21x + 110?
ludmilkaskok [199]
X² - 21x + 110
first you break it up into two parenthesis & since x is squared you need two x's 
since 110 is positive and 21 is negitive, both of your signs need to be negitive
(x - ?)(x - ?)
then you need to think! what are the factors of 110?
Which of these factors add up to 21? those factors go in the parenthesis
