Answer:

73.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for this using z score formula.

z-score is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

x = unknown = randomly selected male's height

μ = 70.3 inches

σ = 4.1 inches

z = is not given but we are given its percentile which is 75

The z score for a 75th percentile = 0.674

Hence,

0.674 = x - 70.3/4.1

Cross Multiply

0.674 × 4.1 = x - 70.3

2.7634 = x - 70.3

x = 70.3 + 2.7634

x = 73.0634 inches

The height of the randomly selected male = 73.0634

Therefore, the height of the randomly selected male to the nearest tenth of an inch is 73.1 inches

Which statement explains why ABC is congruent to A A'B'C' ?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The two given triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent by SSS or AA axiom of congruence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rigid Transformation is a transformation which PRESERVES (keeps it SAME) the LENGTH and the ANGLES in an image and pre- image.

Here, as we can ΔABC goes under Rigid Transformation in to the ΔA'B'C'

⇒Sides AB, BC and AC correspond to the sides A'B',B'C' and A'C' respectively.

Also the ∠A, ∠B and∠C correspond to  ∠A', ∠B' and∠C' respectively.

Now, in  ΔABC and ΔA'B'C

AB  = A'B'

BC  =   B' C'

AC  = A'C'

⇒The two given triangles are congruent by SIDE SIDE SIDE property.

Also, ∠A  = ∠A'

∠B  =   ∠B'

⇒The two given triangles are congruent by ANGLE ANGLE property.

Hence the two given triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent by SSS or AA axiom of congruence.

A parent volunteer group is raising money by making custom hats to sell at school activities.they plan to sell the hats for $10.
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Money raised($)= 6n-50

Step-by-step explanation:

they plan to sell the hats for $10. each hat $4 to make and they spend $50 for advertising.

If their are no number of hats

Cost = 50+4n

Money gotten from the n number of hats= 10(n)

If they are to make profit, the money gotten from the sales of hats should be bigger than the total cost

Money raised = money from sales- cost

Money raised= 10n -4n-50

Money raised($)= 6n-50
