Answer:

the equation will be:

$\mathbf{x-5=3}$

solving the equation we get x=8

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write equation for this sentence:

The difference between a number and five equals three.

Let number = x

So, the equation will be:

$\mathbf{x-5=3}$

Now, solving the equation to find value of x

$x-5=3$

Adding 5 on both sides

$x-5+5=3+5\\x=8$

So, solving the equation we get x=8

Option B is correct.

Answer:In triangle ADC and BCD, AD = BC (opposite sides of a rectangle are congruent)

Step-by-step explanation:

As congruent means shapes having the same length and same internal angles. In the given figure the two statements are already written. The only information about sides AD and BC are missing to complete the proof of congruent diagonals.

The following question find the value of the variables. If your answer is not an integer leave it in simplest radical form

Margarita [4]

Answer:

option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

using the sine/ cosine ratios in the right triangle and the exact values

cos30° = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ , sin30° = $\frac{1}{2}$ , then

cos30° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{x}{20\sqrt{3} }$ = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ ( cross- multiply )

2x = 20 $\sqrt{3}$ × $\sqrt{3}$ = 20 × 3 = 60 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 30

and

sin30° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{y}{20\sqrt{3} }$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( cross- multiply )

2y = 20 $\sqrt{3}$ ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 10 $\sqrt{3}$

What happens to the standard deviation of the average of a sample as the sample size increases? Group of answer choices It gets

NeX [460]

Answer:

Gets smaller

Step-by-step explanation:

- The standard deviation is the quantification of spread of data. According to descriptive statistics the standard deviation s is given by:

s = Σ ( x - u ) / sqrt ( n )

Where, n : sample size

u : Mean value

- So we see that standard deviation (s) is inversely proportional to square root of sample size (n).

- We can see that as sample size (n) increases the standard deviation (s) decreases.
