Answer:

solution,

CD=3x-12

AB=14

BD=6

AC=21

Angle bisector theorem ,

$\frac{ab}{bd} = \frac{ac}{cd} \\ \: or \: \frac{14}{6} = \frac{21}{3x - 12} \\ or \: 14(3x - 12) = 21 \times 6( \: cross \: multiplication) \\ or \: 42x - 168 = 126$

Adding 168 on both sides

$or \: 42x - 168 + 168 = 126 + 168 \\ or \: 42x = 294$

dividing 42 on both side

$\frac{42x}{42} = \frac{294}{42} \\$

$x = 7$

Hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..

According to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the chances of your tax return being audited are about 6 in 1,000 if your incom

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The probability that none of these taxpayers will be audited by the IRS is 0.8996 or 89.36%

Step-by-step explanation:

According to given:

Probability of being audited for income less than $50,000 = 6/1000 = 0.006

Therefore,

Probability of not being audited for income less than $50,000 = 1 - 0.006 = 0.994

Similary,

Probability of being audited for income more than $100,000 = 49/1000 = 0.049

Therefore,

Probability of not being audited for income more than $100,000 = 1 - 0.049 = 0.951

Now, for the probability of 2 persons with less $50,000 income and 2 persons with more than $100,000 income, to not being audited, we must multiply the probabilities of not being audited of each of the 4 persons.

Therefore,

Probability that none of them is audited = (0.994)(0.994)(0.951)(0.951)

Probability that none of them is audited = 0.8936 = 89.36%
