Answer:

£21

Step-by-step explanation:

Sarah : Gavyn = 5:3

Sarah's share = 5x

Gavyn's share = 3x

5x - 3x = 14

2x = 14

x = 14/2

x = £ 7

Gavyn's share = 3x = 3 * 7 = £21

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

A. D and E are similar but not congruent.

Step by step explanation :

The side lengths of D are 3 units and 1 unit.  The side lengths of E are 2 units and 6 units.  The sides are proportional, but are not congruent; this means that the quadrilaterals are similar but not congruent.  Choice A is true and choice C is false.

The side lengths of E are 2 units and 6 units.  The side lengths of F are 3 units and 1 unit.  The sides are proportional, but are not congruent; this means that the quadrilaterals are similar but not congruent.  Choice B is false.

The side lengths of D are 3 units and 1 unit.  The side lengths of F are 3 units and 1 unit.  The sides are congruent; this means that the quadrilaterals are congruent.  Choice D is false.

What is the slope of the graph of 12x + 3y = –17?
garik1379 [7]
To get the slope you need to solve for y:
12x+3y=-17
Subtract 12x from both sides:
3y=-12x-17
Divide everything by 3:
y=-4x-17/3
The slope is -4.

4. A recent poll of 1079 adults finds that 55% of Americans support a more stringent immigration law. Construct a 99% confidence
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

<em>0.5306</em><em>0.5694</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

USing the formuls for calculating the confidence interval for the population proportion;

CI = p±Z*√[p(1-p)/n]

p is the percentage proportion of the population 55%

Z is the z-score at 99% confidence interval = 2.576

n is the sample size = 1079

CI = 0.55 ± 2.576*[0.55(1-0.55)/√1079]

CI = 0.55 ± 2.576*[0.55(0.45)/√1079]

CI = 0.55 ± 2.576*[0.2475/√1079]

CI =  0.55 ± 2.576*[0.2475/32.85]

CI =  0.55 ± 2.576*[0.00753]

CI = 0.55 ±0.0194

CI =(0.55-0.0194, 0.55+0.0194)

CI = (0.5306, 0.5694)

<em>Hence, a 99% confidence interval of the proportion of the population that will support such a law is 0.5306</em><em>0.5694</em>

What property was used to rewrite the polynomial expression<br> (x+5)+3(a+(6x)y) to (5+x)+3(a+(6x)y)
iVinArrow [24]
<span>In order to rewrite the polynomial expression (x+5)+3(a+(6x)y) into </span>(5+x)+3(a+(6x)y) the commutative property of addition is used.
The commutative property is most commonly used property in maths. According the commutative property of addition changing the order of addends does not change the sum. Which means that x+5=5+x, and because of this :
<span>(x+5)+3(a+(6x)y) = (5+x)+3(a+(6x)y)</span>
