Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When the mean of two numbers is the same as one of the numbers, then the other number also has that same value. This is true for any kind of mean:

arithmetic, geometric, harmonic.

The other number would be 7.

The geometric mean (m) of a and b is ...

m = √(ab)

We have ...

7 = √(7b)

49 = 7b . . . . . square both sides

7 = b . . . . . . . .divide by 7

a = b = m = 7 in this case.

Maggie drew triangle and then triangle . Triangle is congruent to triangle only if ∠ is equal to what value?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Angle ABE = 58

Step-by-step explanation:

This would fulfill the AAA theorem, or 3 angles needing to be congruent. We got 58 by subtracting 89 and 62 from 180, then multiplying that answer by 2 (because it occupies both triangles).

GI bisects DGH so that m DGI is x-3 and mIGH is 2x-13 find the value of x

baherus [9]

x = 10

since GI bisects ∠DGH then ∠DGI = ∠IGH, hence

2x - 13 = x - 3 ( subtract x from both sides )

x - 13 = - 3 ( add 13 to both sides )

x = 10

The one-time fling! Have you ever purchased an article of clothing (dress, sports jacket, etc.), worn the item once to a party,

Mama L [17]

Answer:

$(a)\ P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

$(b)\ P(x \ge 1) =0.7275$

$(c)\ P(x \le 2) = 0.8948$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n = 8$ --- 8 friends

$p = 15\%$ --- proportion that one-time fling

This question is an illustration of binomial probability, and it is represented as:

$P(X = x) = ^nC_x* p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}$

Solving (a): P(x = 0) --- None has done one time fling

$P(x = 0) = ^8C_0* (15\%)^0 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-0}$

$P(x = 0) = 1* 1 * (1 - 0.15)^{8}$

$P(x = 0) = 0.85^8$

$P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

Solving (b): $P(x \ge 1)$

To do this, we make use of compliment rule:

$P(x = 0) + P(x \ge 1) =1$

Rewrite as:

$P(x \ge 1) =1 - P(x = 0)$

$P(x \ge 1) =1 - 0.2725$

$P(x \ge 1) =0.7275$

Solving (c): $P(x\le 2)$ --- Not more than 2 has one time fling

This is calculated as:

$P(x\le 2) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2)$

We have:

$P(x = 0) = 0.2725$

$P(x = 1) = ^8C_1* (15\%)^1 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-1}$

$P(x = 1) = 8* (0.15) * (1 - 0.15)^7$

$P(x = 1) = 0.3847$

$P(x = 2) = ^8C_2* (15\%)^2 * (1 - 15\%)^{8-2}$

$P(x = 2) = 28* (0.15)^2 * (1-0.15)^6$

$P(x = 2) = 0.2376$

So:

$P(x\le 2) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1) + P(x = 2)$

$P(x \le 2) = 0.2725 + 0.3847 + 0.2376$

$P(x \le 2) = 0.8948$
