M<J = m<N ( alternate angles)
m<K = m<M ( alternate angles)
so the third angles must also be equal ( total 180 degrees in each triangle)
Therefor the triangles are similar
Answer:
or ![(-\infty, 47/6]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-%5Cinfty%2C%2047%2F6%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that
.
Also, note that
.
So, the inequality is really equal to
.
We can then add
to both sides to get
.
So, the solution is
, or in interval notation, ![(-\infty, 47/6]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-%5Cinfty%2C%2047%2F6%5D)
Answer: the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles is 0.067
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the life expectancy of a particular brand of tire is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = life expectancy of the brand of tire in miles.
µ = mean
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 40000 miles
σ = 5000 miles
The probability that a randomly selected tire will have a life of exactly 47,500 miles
P(x = 47500)
For x = 47500,
z = (40000 - 47500)/5000 = - 1.5
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.067
