Given Information:

Number of endangered mammal species = 59

Number of endangered bird species = 75

Number of endangered fish species = 68

Required Information:

Probability of either a mammal or a fish = ?

Answer:

P(mammal or fish) = 127/202 = 0.6287 = 62.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to randomly select one animal and find out the probability of either a mammal or a fish.

The total number of endangered species of animals is given by

Total animals = mammal species + bird species + fish species

Total animals = 59 + 75 + 68 = 202

The probability of selecting a endangered mammal is

P(mammal) = no. of endangered mammal/total no. of endangered animals

P(mammal) = 59/202

The probability of selecting a endangered fish is

P(fish) = no. of endangered fish/total no. of endangered animals

P(fish) = 68/202

Finally, the probability of selecting either a mammal or a fish is

P(mammal or fish) = 59/202 + 68/202

P(mammal or fish) = 127/202

P(mammal or fish) = 0.6287

P(mammal or fish) = 62.87%

Which inequality's graph will have a dashed boundary line? x + 7y > 3 7x + y ≤ 3 6x − 5y ≥ 4 y − x ≤ 3 NextReset

The answer for this question would be <span>x + 7y > 3. You can figure this out because it is GREATER THAN. If it was greater than or equal to then the line would be solid (same with less than or equal to).</span>

Indicate the answer choice that best completes the statement or answers

zysi [14]

Answer:

Option D. y = 5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Input (x) >>>>>> Output (y)

0 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

1 >>>>>>>>>>>> 6

2 >>>>>>>>>>>> 11

3 >>>>>>>>>>>> 16

4 >>>>>>>>>>>> 21

To know the the correct answer to the question, we shall apply the equation given in each option to see which will satisfy the table. This can be obtained as follow:

For Option a

y = 3x + 3

x = 0

y = 3(0) + 3

y = 0 + 3

y = 0

y = 3x + 3

x = 1

y = 3(1) + 3

y = 3 + 3

y = 6

For Option b

y = 5x – 4

x = 0

y = 5(0) – 4

y = 0 – 4

y = – 4

y = 5x – 4

x = 1

y = 5(1) – 4

y = 5 – 4

y = 1

For Option c

y = 10x – 9

x = 0

y = 10(0) – 9

y = 0 – 9

y = – 9

y = 10x – 9

x = 1

y = 10(1) – 9

y = 10 – 9

y = 1

For Option d

y = 5x + 1

x = 0

y = 5(0) + 1

y = 0 + 1

y = 1

y = 5x + 1

x = 1

y = 5(1) + 1

y = 5 + 1

y = 6

From the illustrations made above, only option d satisfy the table. Thus, option d gives the correct answer to the question.

Valerie is going to use SAS to prove that triangle VWX is congruent to triangle YZX, which of these is a necessary dye in Valeri

Archy [21]

You are correct in selecting choice A as the answer.

You need the middle angles between the two pairs of given congruent sides, so that you can prove the triangles to be congruent through SAS. The vertical angle theorem is used in this case. Alternate interior angles only come from parallel lines, but we dont know if any of the lines are parallel. Even if we did know the lines were paralle, we still wouldn't use the alternate interior angle theorem.
