Vertical angles are equal

3x - 3 = 6(x - 10)

3x - 3 = 6x - 60

-3x = -57

x = 19

answer

x = 19

The 2 equations are vertical angles, which mean they would be the same.

Set the two equations to equal and solve for x.

3x-3 = 6(x-10)

First use the distributive property for the right side:

3x-3 = 6x-60

Add 3 to each side:

3x = 6x -57

Subtract 6x from each side:

-3x = -57

Divide both sides by -3

X = -57 / -3

X = 19

The frequency distributions of two data sets are shown in the dot plots below.

fredd [130]

Answer:

1st, 4th and 6th statements are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given two dot-plots and we are asked to select all the true statements about given dot plots.

Let us write all the data points of both dot plots.

Data set 1:

1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 7.

Data set 2:

1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4.

1. The mean of data set 1 is greater than the mean of data set 2.

Let us find mean of both data sets.

$\text{Mean of data set 1}=\frac{1+1+1+1+1+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+3+3+3+4+4+7}{19}$

$\text{Mean of data set 1}=\frac{45}{19}$

$\text{Mean of data set 1}=2.3684\approx 2.37$

$\text{Mean of data set 2}=\frac{1+1+1+1+1+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+2+3+3+3+4+4}{18}$

$\text{Mean of data set 2}=\frac{38}{18}$

$\text{Mean of data set 2}=2.11$

We can see that mean of data set 1 is greater than mean of data set 2, therefore, 1st statement is true.

2. The mean of data set 1 is equal to the mean of data set 2.

Since mean of data set 1 is greater than mean of data set 2, therefore, 2nd statement is false.

3. The median of data set 1 is greater than the median of data set 2.

Since data set 1 has 19 data points, so median of data set 1 will be value of 10th data set, that is 2.

Our data set 2 has 18 data points, so median of data set 2 will be the average of 9th and 10th data points.

$\text{Median of data set 2}=\frac{2+2}{2}$

$\text{Median of data set 2}=\frac{4}{2}=2$

Since median of data set 2 is also 2, therefore, 3rd statement is not true.

4. The median of data set 1 is equal to the median of data set 2.

Since both data set's median is 2, therefore, 4th statement is true.

5. The standard deviation of data set 1 is smaller than the standard deviation of data set 2.

Using online SD calculator we get SD of data set 1 is 1.422 and SD of data set 2 is 0.936. Since 1.422 is greater than 0.936, therefore, 5th statement is false.

6. The data sets have the same interquartile range.

$Q_1\text{ of data set 1}=1$

$Q_3\text{ of data set 1}=3$

$\text{IQR of data set 1}=3-1=2$

$Q_1\text{ of data set 2}=1$

$Q_3\text{ of data set 2}=3$

$\text{IQR of data set 2}=3-1=2$

Since both data set's IQR is 2, therefore, 6th statement is true.

Find the vertex and length of the latus rectum for the parabola. y=-1/2(x-2)^2+8

victus00 [196]

Y = -(1/2)(x-2)² +8
Re write it in standard form:
(y-8) = -1/2(x-2)² ↔ (y-k) = a(x-h)²

This parabola open downward (a = -1/2 <0), with a maximum shown in vertex
The vertex is (h , k) → Vertex(2 , 8)
focus(h, k +c )
a = 1/4c → -1/2 = 1/4c → c = -1/2, hence focus(2, 8-1/2) →focus(2,15/2)

Latus rectum: y-value = 15/2

Replace in the equation y with 15/2→→15/2 = -1/2(x-2)² + 8
Or -1/2(x-2)² +8 -15/2 = 0
Solving this quadratic equation gives x' = 3 and x" = 2, then
Latus rectum = 5

Solve forp. (1 point)<br>3(p+ 4) =p

NeX [460]

Answer:

p = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Distribute 3 through the parenthesis {3p + 12 = p}

2) Subtract 12 from each side {3p = p - 12}

3) Subtract p from each side {2p = -12}

4) Divide each side by 2 {p = -6}

Which of the following expressions is the inverse of the function y equals quantity x minus 2 divided by 3?

Natalija [7]

Y = (x - 2)/3
3y = x - 2
x = 3y + 2

Therefore, the inverse of y = (x - 2)/3 is y = 3x + 2

Can someone find the length of the spine plss

morpeh [17]

Answer:

48.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom side of the large triangle has length 78 cm.

The bottom side of the right triangle has length 78 cm/2 = 39 cm.

Now we use the Pythagorean theorem to find the vertical side, the spine.

39² + s² = 62²

s² = 3844 - 1521

s² = 2323

s = 48.2

Answer: 48.2 cm
