Answer:

C. 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The inscribed angle marked 15° intercepts an arc that is double that measure, so the intercepted arc on the right is 2×15° = 30°.

The external angle marked 20° is half the difference of the intercepted arcs, so is ...

20° = (1/2)(x - 30°)

40° = x - 30° . . . . . . multiply by 2

70° = x . . . . . . . . . . . add 30°

The value of x is 70°.

Yuri [45]

Since she had $35.48 on her card.

Amount spent in buying coffee = $70 - $35.48 = $34.52

Cost of coffee = $8.63 per pound

No of pounds = Amount spent / cost per pound

= 34.52 / 8.63 Use your calculator.

svetlana [45]

Answer:

0.2805

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p = 20% = 0.2, n = 300.

The mean (μ) = np = 0.2 * 300 = 60

The standard deviation (σ) = $\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{300*0.2(1-0.2)}=6.93$

The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma }$

For x = 57:

$z=\frac{57-60}{6.93 } =-0.43$

For x = 62:

$z=\frac{62-60}{6.93 } =0.29$

From the normal distribution table, P(57 < x < 62) = P(-0.43 < z < 0.29) = P(z < 0.29) - P(z < -0.43) = 0.6141 - 0.3336 = 0.2805
