Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal what is the value of A?

gulaghasi [49]

Answer: 63 degrees (second choice)

The two angles shown are corresponding angles. They are both on the bottom side of their adjacent parallel line, and at the same time, they are also on the left side of the transversal line. This is why they are corresponding angles.

Corresponding angles are congruent if you have a set of parallel lines like the diagram shows. So that's why a = 63.

Light bulbs usually cost 2$. They are on sale for 0.50 of the regular price. What is the sale price? Is this a better price than

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The sale price is $1

$1 is not a better price since there is a cheaper price of $0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price is $2

The price now is 0.5 × $2 = $1

If the sale price was 0.35 of the original price;

It would be 0.35 × $2 = $0.7

$1 is not a better price since there is a cheaper price of $0.7

A meeting on an unpopular topic has been announced. The number of attendees may be modeled by X where What is the probability th

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

A meeting on an unpopular topic has been announced. The number of attendees may be modeled by X where:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...

What is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend?

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Given:

P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,... (1)

Since it is given that at least 2 attend, it implies that we need to calculate P(x) at x = 2.

Substituting x = 2 into equation (1), we have:

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^(2 + 1)

P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^3

P(X = 2) = 1 / 8

P(X = 2) = 0.1250, or 12.50%

Therefore, is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.

Sergio is working on a research project involving the ages of students at Brooklyn College. After interviewing 500 students, he

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The probability of of a randomly chosen student being exactly 21 years old.

= 1.293

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given Population size n = 500

Mean of the Population = 20 years and 6 months

= $20 + \frac{6}{12} = 20 +0.5 = 20.5 years$

Standard deviation of the Population = 2 years

Let 'X' be the range of ages of the students on campus follows a normal distribution

Let x =21

$Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D}$

$Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{21-20.6}{2} =0.2$

The probability of a randomly chosen student being exactly 21 years old.

P( Z≤21) = 0.5 + A( 0.2)

= 0.5 +0.793

= 1.293
