Answer:

The measure of AB is 29

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>If a line is drawn from a vertex of a triangle perpendicular to the opposite side to this vertex and bisects it, then </em><em>the sides joining this vertex are equal in lengths</em>

In Δ ABD

∵ Line AC ⊥ side BD

∵ BC = BD = 15

∴ C is the mid-point of The side BD

∴ Line AC is a perpendicular bisector of side BD

→ By using the rule above

∴ AB = AD

∵ AB = 5x - 11

∵ AD = 3x + 5

→ Equate them

∴ 5x - 11 = 3x + 5

→ Add 11 to both sides

∵ 5x - 11 + 11 = 3x + 5 + 11

∴ 5x = 3x + 16

→ Subtract 3x from both sides

∵ 5x - 3x = 3x - 3x + 16

∴ 2x = 16

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 8

→ Substitute the value x in the expression of side AB

∵ AB = 5(8) - 11

∴ AB = 40 - 11

∴ AB = 29

∴ The measure of AB is 29

Suppose you want to learn more about the heights of the buildings in New York City. How would you choose a sample of the buildin
natulia [17]

Answer:

I'd use a Non-probability Sampling Method.

Explanation:

The question is already laced with criteria - Heights of Buildings in New York.

This means that there are certain buildings that won't fit in the sample. In a non-probability sample, objects or subjects are elected based on specified criteria that are not random. This means that not all objects/subject have a c<em>hance</em> of being included in the sample.

It is assumed that the question/assignment centers around high rise buildings.

Therefore, one storey buildings and bungalows that are within and outside New York will not be included in the sample.

Under the Non-Probability Sampling Method, it is essential to note that there are other subgroupings of sampling techniques. They are:

  1. Convenience Sample
  2. Voluntary Sample
  3. Purposive Sample
  4. Snowball Sample

Cheers!
