Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x between two points. Slope = y2 - y1/x2 - x1 -2 - 4/ -1 - (-4) -6/3 -2 Hope this helps!

The measure of angle 1 is 65 degrees. What are the measures of the other seven angles? (Enter the

Anika [276]

Answer:

See solution below

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the diagram shown

m<1 = m<5 = 5=65 degrees (corresponding angle)

m<5 = m<4 - 65 degrees (alternate interior angle)

m<9 = m<8 = 65degrees (corresponding angle)

m<5 = m<8 = 65dgrees (vertically opposite angles)

m<6+m<8 = 180

m<6 + 65 = 180

m<6 = 180 - 65

m<6 = 115degrees

m<2 = m<6 = 115degrees (corresponding angles)

m<6 = m<7 = 115degrees (vertically opposite angles)

m<3 = m<7 = 115degrees(corresponding angle)

faust18 [17]

Answer:

a. 0.4931

b. 0.2695

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let BG represents Boston Globe

NYT represents New York Times

P(BG) = 0.55

P(BG') = 1 - 0.55 = 0.45

P(NYT) = 0.6

P(NYT') = 1 -0.6 = 0.4

Number of headlines = 5

Number of depressed articles = 3 (at most)

Let P(Read) = Probability that he reads the news the first day

P(Read) = P(He reads BG) and P(He reads NYT)

For the professor to read BG, then there must be at most 3 depressing news

i.e P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3)

But P(0) + P(1) + .... + P(5) = 1 (this is the sample space)

So,

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) = 1 - P(4) - P(5)

P(4) or P(BG = 4) is given as the binomial below

(BG + BG')^n where n = 5, r = 4

So, P(BG = 4) = C(5,4) * 0.55⁴ * 0.45¹

P(BG = 5). = (BG + BG')^n where n = 5, r = 5

So, P(BG = 5) = C(5,5) * 0.55^5 * 0.45°

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3)= 1 - P(BG = 4) - P(BG = 5)

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) = 1 - C(5,4) * 0.55⁴ * 0.45¹ - C(5,5) * 0.55^5 * 0.45°

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) = 0.7438

For the professor to read NYT, then there must be at most 3 depressing news

i.e P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3)

But P(0) + P(1) + .... + P(5) = 1 (this is the sample space)

So,

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) = 1 - P(4) - P(5)

P(4) or P(NYT = 4) is given as the binomial below

(NYT+ NYT')^n where n = 5, r = 4

So, P(NYT = 4) = C(5,4) * 0.6⁴ * 0.4¹

P(NYT = 5). = (NYT + NYT')^n where n = 5, r = 5

So, P(NYT = 5) = C(5,5) * 0.6^5 * 0.4°

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3)= 1 - P(NYT = 4) - P(NYT = 5)

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) = 1 - C(5,4) * 0.6⁴ * 0.4¹ - C(5,5) * 0.6^5 * 0.4°

P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) = 0.6630

P(Read) = P(He reads BG) and P(He reads NYT)

P(Read) = 0.7438 * 0.6630

P(Read) = 0.4931

Given

n = Number of week = 7

P(Read) = 0.4931

R(Read') = 1 - 0.4931 =

He needs to read at least half the time means he reads for 4 days a week

So,

P(Well-informed) = (Read + Read')^n where n = 7, r = 4

P(Well-informed) = C(7,4) * (0.4931)⁴ * (1-0.4931)³ = 0.2695

inessss [21]

Answer:

$\frac{1429}{120}$ or $11\frac{109}{120}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A farmer has a basket of peaches. He gives ⅓ of the peaches to one person, ¼ to another, ⅕ to another, ⅛ to another, and then gives 7 peaches to a 5th person.

Remaining peaches = 4

We need to find the original number of peaches in the basket.

The farmer gives the total number of peaches = $\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{8}+7$

Let x be the former gives the total number of peaches

We multiply and divide by 120 in right side of the above equation because of 120 is divided by all given denominator and then simplify.

$x = \frac{120}{120}(\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{8}+7)$

$x = \frac{1}{120}(\frac{120}{3}+\frac{120}{4}+\frac{120}{5}+\frac{120}{8}+7\times 120)$

$x = \frac{1}{120}(40+30+24+15+840)$

$x = \frac{1}{120}(949)$

$x = \frac{949}{120}$

We add the remaining peaches by given peaches for the original number of peaches in the basket.

Original number of peaches = $\frac{949}{120}+4$

Original number of peaches = $\frac{949+4\times 120}{120}$

Original number of peaches = $\frac{949+480}{120}$

Original number of peaches = $\frac{1429}{120}$

Original number of peaches = $11\frac{109}{120}$

Therefore the original number of peaches in the basket is $\frac{1429}{120}$ or $11\frac{109}{120}$
