Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 6 and 9 are alternate interior angles where transversal 'a' crosses parallel lines p and q. As such, they are congruent. This means the measure of angle 6 is the same as that of angle 9, 110°.

Angles 6 and 8 are <em>corresponding</em> angles. If lines 'a' and 'b' were parallel, those angles would be congruent. We know angle 6 has a measure of 110° and angle 8 has a measure of 70°, so the angles are not congruent. Hence, lines 'a' and 'b' are not parallel.

<em>Alternate solutions</em>

Since you are not allowed to plagiarize my answer, you may be interested in other ways to show the same thing. The basic idea is to use angle relationships where transversals cross parallel lines. Ones that can be useful here are ...

  • corresponding angles are congruent
  • vertical angles are congruent*
  • alternate interior (or exterior) angles are congruent
  • sequential interior (or exterior) angles are supplementary.
  • angles of a linear pair are supplementary*

The relations marked with an asterisk (*) apply where <em>any</em> lines cross, and have no specific relationship to parallel lines. The remaining relationships only occur if the lines are parallel. Showing one of those is not true will show that the lines are not parallel.

The smaller square has length of 4. So its perimeter is 4*4 = 16
The larger square has length of 8 and its perimeter is 8*4 = 32

The scale factor is 2.  Since the larger square is twice the size of the smaller square (Or you can say that the scale factor is 1/2 if you are looking at the perspective of the larger square to the smaller square).

When a higher confidence level is used to estimate a proportion and all other factors involved are held constant
lbvjy [14]

Options :

A) the confidence interval will be wider.

B) the confidence interval will be narrower.

C) there is not enough information to determine the effect on the confidence interval.

D) the confidence interval will be less likely to contain the parameter being estimated.

E) the confidence interval will not be affected.

Answer: A) The confidence interval will be wider

Step-by-step explanation: In statistics, When a higher confidence interval is used to estimate a proportion with other factors being held constant, the confidence interval will be wider. Since the confidence interval is aimed at tweaking the precision of our measurement or estimation, when we adopt a higher confidence level, we are trying g to reduce our chances of being wrong and hence increasing our precision and thus widening the level of confidence in the result obtained. That said, 95% confidence interval is wider than 90%. And 99% is wder than 95%.

Softa [21]

Answer:

slope = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

point1 =  (0,7)

point 2 =(7,7)

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) => (7-7)/(7-0)

slope = 0
