Answer:

We first use the distributive property on both sides:

1/2(n)-1/2(4)-3 = 3-(2n)-(3)

1/2n - 2 - 3 = 3 - 2n - 3

Combining like terms on both sides,

1/2n - 5 = -2n

Subtracting 1/2n from both sides:

1/2n - 5 - 1/2n = -2n - 1/2n

-5 = (-2 1/2)n

Divide both sides by -2 1/2:

-5/(-2 1/2) = (-2 1/2)n/(-2 1/2)

2 = n

two right triangles are similar if an acute angle of one triangle is congruent to an acute angle of the other triangle. a. true

MArishka [77]

Answer: True

One angle of a right triangle = 90°
Let x = the acute angle of one angle.
Let y = the angle of the other angle.

Because the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°,
x + y + 90 = 180
x + y = 90
y = 90 - x

Therefore the angles for each of the two triangles are
x, 90° - x, 90°.

The two triangles are therefore similar because of AAA (Angle, Angle, Angle).

Assume the readings on thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0degreesc and a standard deviation of 1.00degreesc.

Tanzania [10]

Let Z be the reading on thermometer. Z follows Standard Normal distribution with mean μ =0 and standard deviation σ=1

The probability that randomly selected thermometer reads greater than 2.07 is

P(z > 2.07) = 1 -P(z < 2.07)

Using z score table to find probability below z=2.07

P(Z < 2.07) = 0.9808

P(z > 2.07) = 1- 0.9808

P(z > 2.07) = 0.0192
