The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180. The sum of the measures of the second and third angles is five times

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

$x=30\\y=68\\z=82$

Step-by-step explanation:

x = measure of the first angle

y = measure of the second angle

z = measure of the third angle

The sum of the measures of the second and third (y+z) is five times the measure of the first angle (=5x)

$y+z=5x$

The third angle is 14 more than the second

$z=y+14$

And remember that the sum of these three angles must be equal to 180.

$x+y+z=180$

Let's take these equations

$y+z=5x\\z=y+14\\x+y+z=180$

If you take a look at the first equation, we have y+z = 5x and we have y+z in the third equation as well, we can replace that....

$x+y+z=180\\x+(y+z)=180\\x+(5x)=180$

Distribute the + sign

$x+5x=180$

Combine like terms;

$6x=180$

Divide by 6.

$x=\frac{180}{6}\\ x=30$

We have now defined that the measure of the first angle is 30º.

Let's take another equation... for example $z=y+14$

I'm going to take this one because if I replace x and z in the third equation, all I'll have left will be y.

$x+y+z=180\\30+y+(y+14)=180$

Distribute the + sign and Combine like terms;

$30+y+y+14=180\\44+2y=180\\$

Subtract 44 to isolate 2y.

$2y=180-44\\2y=136$

Now divide by 2.

$y=\frac{136}{2}\\ y=68$

We already have the value of x and y. Once again, replacing this in the third equation will leave us with z to solve for.

$x+y+z=180\\30+68+z=180\\98+z=180\\z=180-98\\z=82$

Suppose the weights of apples are normally distributed with a mean of 85 grams and a standard deviation of 8 grams. The weights

user100 [1]

Answer:

a) 0.0304 = 3.04% probability a randomly chosen apple exceeds 100 g in weight.

b) The weight that 80% of the apples exceed is of 78.28g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Weights of apples are normally distributed with a mean of 85 grams and a standard deviation of 8 grams.

This means that $\mu = 85, \sigma = 8$

a. Find the probability a randomly chosen apple exceeds 100 g in weight.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 100. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{100 - 85}{8}$

$Z = 1.875$

$Z = 1.875$ has a p-value of 0.9697

1 - 0.9696 = 0.0304

0.0304 = 3.04% probability a randomly chosen apple exceeds 100 g in weight.

b. What weight do 80% of the apples exceed?

This is the 100 - 80 = 20th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.2, so X when Z = -0.84.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$-0.84 = \frac{X- 85}{8}$

$X - 85 = -0.84*8$

$X = 78.28$

The weight that 80% of the apples exceed is of 78.28g.

The diameter of a circle is 34 millimeters. What is the circle's area?<br> Use 3.14 for .

icang [17]

Answer:

907.46 mm2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle = (¶d^2)/4

d = 34 mm

Therefore

Area A = (3.14 x 34^2)/4

= 907.46 mm2

The ratio of red to blue marbles in a bag is 2:5. If there are 65 blue marbles in the bag, how many red marbles are there? Let x

hoa [83]

Answer:

first get the total ratio; 2 + 5 = 7

so the fraction of blue marbles is 5/7

then assume the number of total marbles to be k

then use the expression;

5/7*k = 65

7*5/7 * k = 65*7

5k =455

5/5k = 455/5

k = 91

then calculate the number if red marbles from;

x = 2/7*91

x = 26

Therefore there are 26 red marbles.
