If B is the midpoint of AC, AC=CD, AB=3x+4, AC=11x-17, and CE=49, find DE.

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

AB = 3x + 4 and AC which is twice of AB is equal to 11x - 17

2 (3x + 4) = 11x - 17

6x + 8 = 11x - 17

8 + 17 = 11x - 6x

25 = 5x

5 = x

AC = CD = 11x - 17 ➡ 11×5 - 17 = 38

CD = 38 and DE = 49 - 38 = 11

When the lines are parallel and angles are given, and since a straight line is 180°, the 2 angles of the line intersecting the parallel lines have to add up to be 180. Therefore,
21. 31°
22. 96°
23. 149°

A study was done that looked at how much red meat people consumed and how long they lived. The correlation r was found to be 0.9
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the correlation r was found to be 0.98 (a value closer to 1).  

Let X =how much red meat people consumed

let Y = how long they lived.

where the x-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates X from Xₙ, their mean value and the y-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates Y from Yₙ, their mean value.

That is, x=(X−Xₙ) and y=(Y−Yₙ).

The results of this determination give values of r lying between +1 and −1, where;

+1 indicates perfect direct  correlation,

−1 indicates perfect inverse correlation and

0 indicates that no correlation exists.

Between these values, the smaller the value of r, the less is the amount of correlation which exists.

Generally, values of r in the ranges 0.7 to 1 and −0.7 to −1 show that a fair amount of correlation exists.

therefore, it can be seen that there is a perfect relationship between the quantity eaten and how long the person live

But, the correlation does not consider those that does not consume meat, and it is very hard to determined the answer to the question.

the answer is false because there are other reasons that determined longevity of life apart from meat consumption.
