Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle QRS, Line R Q extends through point D. Line Q R extends through point E. Line Q S extends through point C as shown below.

We need to find an angle that has a measure equal to the sum of m∠SQR and m∠QRS.

According to the exterior angle theorem, the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of measures of two opposite interior angles.

Since ∠SQR and ∠QRS are two interior angles of a triangle QRS, so ∠RSC is the exterior angle of opposite to ∠SQR and ∠QRS.

By using exterior angle theorem we conclude that

m∠RSC = m∠SQR + m∠QRS

∠RSC has a measure equal to the sum of m∠SQR and m∠QRS.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a) 0.2741 = 27.41% probability that at least 13 believe global warming is occurring

b) 0.7611 = 76.11% probability that at least 110 believe global warming is occurring

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that $\mu = E(X)$ , $\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}$ .

In this problem, we have that:

$p = 0.71$

(a) For a sample of 16 Americans, what is the probability that at least 13 believe global warming is occurring?

Here $n = 16$ , we want $P(X \geq 13)$ . So

$P(X \geq 13) = P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 13) = C_{16,13}.(0.71)^{13}.(0.29)^{3} = 0.1591$

$P(X = 14) = C_{16,14}.(0.71)^{14}.(0.29)^{2} = 0.0835$

$P(X = 15) = C_{16,15}.(0.71)^{15}.(0.29)^{1} = 0.0273$

$P(X = 16) = C_{16,16}.(0.71)^{16}.(0.29)^{0} = 0.0042$

$P(X \geq 13) = P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) = 0.1591 + 0.0835 + 0.0273 + 0.0042 = 0.2741$

0.2741 = 27.41% probability that at least 13 believe global warming is occurring

(b) For a sample of 160 Americans, what is the probability that at least 110 believe global warming is occurring?

Now $n = 160$ . So

$\mu = E(X) = np = 160*0.71 = 113.6$

$\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{160*0.71*0.29} = 5.74$

Using continuity correction, this is $P(X \geq 110 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 109.5)$ , which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 109.5. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{109.5 - 113.6}{5.74}$

$Z = -0.71$

$Z = -0.71$ has a pvalue of 0.2389

1 - 0.2389 = 0.7611

0.7611 = 76.11% probability that at least 110 believe global warming is occurring

I can't seem to figure out number 13, with the star. I just don't know! Help is very appreciated ☺️

katrin2010 [14]

Given:
Scale of the map 1 1/4cm : 8 yards
Rectangular Park: width : 2 1/2 cm ; length : 6 1/4 cm
Circular Pond: pi = 3.14 ; diameter 1 1/4 cm

Convert mixed factions into fractions.
Scale 1 1/4 = (4*1+1)/4 = 5/4
Width: 2 1/2 = (2*2+1)/2 = 5/2
Length: 6 1/4 = (4*6+1)/4 = 25/4
Diameter: 1 1/4 = (4*1+1)/4 = 5/4

width / scale * 8 yds = width in yards
5/2 ÷ 5/4 = 5/2 * 4/5 = 20/10 = 2 * 8 yds = 16 yds
length / scale * 8 yds = length in yards
25/4 ÷ 5/4 = 25/4 * 4/5 = 100/20 = 5 * 8 yds = 40 yds

Area of a rectangular park = l * w = 40 yds * 16 yds = 640 yds²

diameter / scale * 8 yds = diameter in yards
5/4 ÷ 5/4 = 5/4 * 4/5 = 20/20 = 1 * 8 yds = 8 yds.

radius = d/2 = 8/2 = 4
Area of a circular pond = πr² = 3.14 * 4² = 3.14 * 16yds² = 50.24 yds²
