Answer:

The number of commercial orbital launches is equal to 19 and the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The number of noncommercial orbital launches was two more than twice the number of commercial orbital launches.

Let's say that the number of commercial orbital launches is equal to x. Now, the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 2x+2.

We are told that if we add the number of commercial and noncommercial orbital launches together we will get 59.

Therefore, if we add 2x+2 with x we should get 59:

2x+2+x=59

3x+2=59

3x=57

x=19

This is how we can come to the answer that the number of commercial orbital launches is equal to 19 and the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 40 (2x+2=2*19+2=38+2=40).

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Since the slope of the line is (31/4 - 25/4) / (5/4 - 3/4) = 3 that means that for every 1 that x increases, y increases by 3 so an example could be 1 3/4 for x and 9 1/4 for y.

In the diagram, GB = 2x + 3..
zaharov [31]

<u>Answer-</u>

\boxed{\boxed{GB=15\ units}}

<u>Solution-</u>

From the attachment,

AD = AE, so FA is a median.

BD = BF, so BE is a median.

CF = CE, so DC is a median.

And G is the centroid.

From the properties of centroid, we know that

The centroid divides each median in a ratio of 2:1

So,

\Rightarrow FG:AG=2:1

\Rightarrow \dfrac{FG}{AG}=\dfrac{2}{1}

\Rightarrow FG=2\times AG

\Rightarrow 5x=2\times (x+9)

\Rightarrow 5x=2x+18

\Rightarrow 3x=18

\Rightarrow x=6

So, GB will be 2(6)+3=15 units

What is the value of y in the triangle?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

• From trigonometric ratios:

{ \rm{ \sin( \theta) =  \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}  }} \\

→ theta is 41°

→ opposite is y

→ hypotenuse is 26 ft

{ \tt{ \sin(41)  =  \frac{y}{26} }} \\  \\ { \tt{y = 26 \sin(41) }} \\  \\ { \boxed{ \tt{ \: y = 17.06 \:  \: ft}}}

Suppose commute times in a large city are normally distributed and that 63.70% of commuters in this city take more than 22 minut
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The mean is 24.205

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to get the z-score

From the question, the probability we have is the probability that commuters take more than 22 minutes to commute one-way

So the probability we had was;

P( x > 22)

So we need the z-score corresponding to 63.70% or simply 0.637

We can use the standard normal distribution table to get this

Mathematically, from the standard normal distribution table this is -0.35

z-score = (x- mean)/SD

-0.35 = (22-mean)/6.3

22-mean = -2.205

mean = 22 + 2.205 = 24.205
