Answer:

  36°

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached figure.

Triangles ANC, AMB, BCN, CBM are all isosceles by virtue of the given congruences. By symmetry, we also claim that ΔABC is isosceles (AB≅AC).

We aren't sure how their internal angles relate, but we can write a couple of equations.

Let x = m∠BAC, y = m∠BCN.

∠NCA = ∠NAC  = ∠MBA = ∠MAB = x

∠BCM = ∠BMC = x +y

∠BMC = ∠MBA +∠MAB = 2x

So, we have ...

  ∠BMC = x +y = 2x   ⇒    y = x

And the sum of angles around ΔABC is ...

  x +(2x) +(2x) = 180°

  x = 180°/5 = 36°

The measure of angle BAC is 36°.

Show your work please.
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Tauren has 78 keychains

James has 34 keychains

Marcus has 68 keychains

Yahya has 74 keychains

Step-by-step explanation:

I got this answer by doing this:

If Tauren has 78 keychains then its gonna be left like that.

If everybody else has an average of 68 keychains then divide 68 by 2 to get half of what marcus has which equals 34.

Then add the amount of James and marcus keychains which is 68 plus 34 which equals 102, the subtract the 28 because it says Yayha has 28 fewer keychains and that equals 74.

Complete Question

The mean finish time for a yearly amateur auto race was 186.94 minutes with a standard deviation of 0.305 minute. The winning car, driven by Roger, finished in 185.85 minutes. The previous year's race had a mean finishing time of 110.7 with a standard deviation of 0.115 minute. The winning car that year, driven by Karen, finished in 110.48 minutes.

Find their respective z-scores.

 Who had the more convincing victory?

A. Roger​ had a more convincing victory because of a higher z-score.

B. Karen a more convincing victory because of a higher z-score.

C. Roger had a more convincing victory, because of a lower z-score.

D. Karen a more convincing victory because of a lower z-score.

Answer:

The correct option is  D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The mean of the current year  is  \mu_c =  186.32 \  minutes

   The standard deviation is  \sigma_c  =  0.305 \  minutes

   The time taken by  the winning car for the current year  is  x =  185.85 \ minutes

  The mean of the previous  year  is  \mu_p =  110.7 \  minutes

   The standard deviation the previous  year  is  \sigma_p  = 0.115  \  minutes

 The time taken by  the winning car for the previous year  is  y =   110.48 \ minutes    

Generally the z-score for current year is mathematically evaluated as

     z_c  =  \frac{x- \mu_c}{\sigma_c }

=>     z_c  =  \frac{ 185.85- 186.32}{0.305 }

=> z_c  = -1.536

Generally the z-score for previous year is mathematically evaluated as

     z_p  =  \frac{y- \mu_p}{\sigma_p }

=>     z_p  =  \frac{ 110.48-110.7}{0.115  }

=> z_p  = -1.913

From the value obtained we see that  z_p  <  z_c , Hence  Karen had a more convincing victory because of the lower z -score.

What is the slope of the line shown below?
strojnjashka [21]

Because we're given two points on the line, we can apply the slope formula to find the answer:

\frac{y.2 - y.1}{x.2 - x.1} = m

-4 - 8 / 2 - (-1)

-12 / 3

-4

<h3>The slope of the line is -4.</h3>
