Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles 153 and QRP are straight angles, and thus Angle QRP is
180 - 153, or 27 degrees.
The interior angles of the triangle must sum up to 180 degrees:
27 + (3y + 5) + (2y - 7) = 180.
combining like terms, we get:
5y - 25 = 180, or 5y = 155, or y = 31
Then Angle Q is 3(31) + 5, or 93
Angle P is 2(31) - 7, or 55, and
Angle QRP is 27 degrees (found earlier).
Answer:
BC=11
Step-by-step explanation:
we need to find BC
and we know that
AB= x+2
AC=13
BC=2x+11
A, B and C are collinear
that means that
AB+BC=AC
x+2+2x+11=13
3x+13=13
3x=0
x=0
so BC=2(0)+11
BC=11
Step-by-step explanation:
To check out how efficient or accurate a model is, we use the akaike information criterion or the Bayesian. If the AIC or BIC are lower, then this model would be better. They are also used to control for model complexity
Akaike information criterion = 2k-2ln where k is the number of parameter. A higher k gives a higher AIC.
In the real world complex models are discouraged and avoided since
1. They cause data to be over fitted and can capture noise and information from this data.
2. They are complex and therefore difficult to interpret
3. They consume a lot of time and computing them has several inefficiencies.
Using these two as measure of performance, we can select optimal choice of independent variable.
With forward/backward regression, we are able to put new variables in the model or remove from it. The best is the one with lowest AIC.
Complete question :
Sweets are sold loose, or pre-packed in 120g bags.The 120g bags are £1.49 each.The loose sweets are £0.89 for 100g.
By calculating the price per gram, determine which is better value.
Answer:
100 g bag
Step-by-step explanation:
For the 120g bag:
Price per gram :
Price / Numbe of gram
1.49 / 120 = 0.0124 gram per bag
For the 100 g bag :
0.89 / 100
= $0.0089per gram
Since $0.0089 is < $0.0124
Then the 100g bag is of better value
The answer is 8 ft.
The base area of rectangular prism is: A = l * w = 56 ft²
<span>The length of the base is longer than the width: l > w
The volume of the prism is: V = l * w * h = 840 ft</span>³
<span>The sum of the length and width of the base is equal to the height of the pyramid: l + w = h
So:
</span>l * w = 56
l * w * h = 840
___
56 * h = 840
h = 840 / 56
h = 15 ft
Now, we know that
l + w = 15 ⇒ w = 15 - l
l * w = 56
___
l * (15 - l) = 56
15l - l² = 56
0 = l² - 15l + 56
Or: l² - 15l + 56 = 0
Let's solve the quadratic function:
l = (-b +/-√(b² - 4ac)/(2a)
= (15 +/-√(-15)² - 4 * 1 * 56))/(2*1)
= (15 +/- √(225 - 224))/2
= (15 +/- √1)/2
= (15 +/-1)/2
l = (15+1)/2 = 16/2 = 8
or
l = (15-1)/2 = 14/2 = 7
If l = 8, then w = 15 - 8 = 7. So, l > w
If l = 7, then w = 15 - 7 = 8. So, l < w
Therefore, l = 8 ft.
