∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary angles. m∠1 = x − 39, and m∠2 = x + 61. Find the measure of each angle.

1 answer:

5 0

The third choice is correct.
X-39 + x+61 = 180
2x + 22 =180
2x = 158
X= 79
then you plug into the angles:
79 - 39 = 40 — angle 1
79 + 61 = 140 — angle 2

140 plus 40 is 180.

Answer:

a) 6.68th percentile

b) 617.5 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 550, \sigma = 100$
