Mathematics
1 answer:
ELEN [110]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=27}

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

ΔADC and ΔCDB are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{AD}{DC}=\dfrac{DC}{DB}

We have:

AD=12,\ DC=18,\ DB=y

Substitute:

\dfrac{12}{18}=\dfrac{18}{y}             <em>cross multiply</em>

12y=(18)(18)

12y=324            <em>divide both sides by 12</em>

y=27

The weight of tigers follow a normal distribution with a mean of 220 kg and a SD of 30 kg. 1) If we randomly select a tiger, wha
mylen [45]

Answer:

0.89736

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using z score formula

Z score = x - μ/σ

x = raw score

μ = population mean

σ = population standard deviation

Hence,

x = 258, μ = 220, σ = 30

Z = 258 - 220/30

=1.26667

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<258) = 0.89736

Therefore, the probability that his weights is less than 258 kg is 0.89736

In the xy-coordinate plane shown, line L passes through point C and has a slope of -2. A dilation of line L with center A and a
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation of a line about a point not on the line shifts the line but leaves the slope intact .

New line slope will be -2

As both A and C lie on a horizontal line y = 2, C' will also lie on the same line

The distance between A and C is 0 - 2 = -2

a scale factor of 3 means C' is -2(3) = -6 units left of A

C' = (2 - 6, 2) = (-4. 2)
