8 0

Answer:

$y=2\sqrt{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying geometric mean theorem in the given right angle,

$\frac{AD}{DB}=\frac{DB}{CD}$

By substituting values in the given ratio,

$\frac{5}{y}= \frac{y}{8}$

$y^2=8\times 5$

$y^2=40$

$y=2\sqrt{10}$

Exact value of y is $2\sqrt{10}$ .

only 2/3 of the school districts kindergarten teachers are women. if 59 are men, how many kindergarten teachers in all are emplo

Oxana [17]

Answer:

177

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 are women.

that means the remainder, 1/3, are men.

59 = 1/3 of all kindergarten teachers (3/3 = 1 representing the "whole").

so,

59×3 = 177

is the number of all kindergarten teachers employed by the school district.

A normal distribution has a mean of 137 and a standard deviation of 7. Find the z-score for a data value of 121. Incorrect Round

Neko [114]

Answer:

The z-score for a data value of 121 is -2.29.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 137, \sigma = 7$

Find the z-score for a data value of 121.

This is Z when X = 121. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{121 - 137}{7}$

$Z = -2.29$

The z-score for a data value of 121 is -2.29.

Charra [1.4K]

The angles diagonally opposite each other are congruent while those adjacent to each other add up to 180 degrees. You can get eight congruent angles with a transversal if the two lines are parallel, because each angle would be 90.
