SCORPION-xisa [38]2 years ago
4 0
Remember foil and distributive property
note the invible -1

5a(2x-1)-1(8a-x)(2x-a)
look at first bit
5a(2x-a)=10ax-5a^2
2nd part

-1(8a-x)(2x-a)
-1(16ax-2x^2-8a^2+ax)
-1(17ax-2x^2-8a^2)
-17ax+2x^2+8a^2

now combine the 2 parts
10ax-5a^2-17ax+2x^2+8a^2
2x^2+3a^2-7ax

If mRS=x then write an equation that could be used to solve for x and find the value of x
Fed [463]

Answer:

a) x = 30°

b) mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°

Question:

The complete question as found on Chegg website:

In the diagram below, secants PT and PU have been drawn from exterior point P such that the four arcs

intercepted have the following ratio of measurements:

mRS : mST :MTU : mUR=1:4:4:3

(a) If mRS = x, then write an equation that could be used to solve for x

and find the value of x.

(b) State the measure of each of the four arcs.

mRS =

mST =

MTU

MUR =

Step-by-step explanation:

Find attached the diagram related to the question

mRS : mST : mTU : mUR = 1:4:4:3

Since mRS = x

Writing the ratios of the measure of angle in terms of mRS:

mST = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mTU = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mUR= 3× mRS = 3×x = 3x

The sum of measure the 4 measures of arc = 360° (sum of angle in a circle)

mRS + mST + mTU + mUR = 360°

x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360

12x = 360

x = 360/12

x = 30°

b) The measure of angle

mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°

At a new exhibit in the Museum of Science, people are asked to choose between 94 or 220 random draws from a machine. The machine
Tresset [83]

Answer:

0.0869 = 8.69% probability of getting more than 61% green balls.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

The machine is known to have 99 green balls and 78 red balls.

This means that p = \frac{99}{99+78} = 0.5593

Mean and standard deviation:

\mu = p = 0.5593

s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.5593*0.4407}{99+78}} = 0.0373

a. Calculate the probability of getting more than 61% green balls.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.61. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{0.61 - 0.5593}{0.0373}

Z = 1.36

Z = 1.36 has a pvalue of 0.9131

1 - 0.9131 = 0.0869

0.0869 = 8.69% probability of getting more than 61% green balls.

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex polygon is 3960°.
scZoUnD [109]

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a convex regular polygon is 180 times (n-2), where n is the number of sides. Since we already know the sum, we can write 3,960 = 180(n-2). If you solve for n in this equation, you will have the number of sides.
