Problem 1

We're given that angle A = angle B. Also that angle B = angle C.

By the transitive property, we can say angle A = angle C.

So basically all three angles are equal to one another. Let's call that unknown angle x.

For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180, so,

x+x+x = 180

3x = 180

x = 180/3

x = 60

That proves angles A,B, and C are each 60 degrees. This triangle is considered equiangular since all angles are the same. Furthermore, the triangle is also considered equilateral meaning all sides are the same. The term equilateral is more widely used, so I'd go with that term if you could only pick one.

==========================================================

Problem 2

As mentioned in problem 1, the three angles of a triangle add to 180

A+B+C = 180

A+B+90 = 180

A+B+90-90 = 180-90

A+B = 90

This shows A and B are complementary angles. Complementary angles by definition add to 90 degrees.

Solve. Write the solution in interval notation. -2x>-8 and -5x<20.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The interval notation of the solution is (-4 , 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Let us explain a very important point in solving inequality

- When you multiply or divide an inequality by negative number we

must reverse the symbol of the inequality

- Ex:

∵ 2 < 3

- If we multiply the both sides of the inequality by -1, then the

inequality will be -2 < -3 and this is completely wrong, so we must

reverse the symbol of the inequality

∴ -2 > -3

* Now let us solve the problem

∵ -2x > -8

- Divide both sides by -2 and remember to reverse the symbol of the

inequality

∴ x < 4

∵ -5x < 20

- Divide both sides by -5 and remember to reverse the symbol of the

inequality

∴ x > -4

- From both solutions

∴ -4 < x < 4

∴ The solution is {x : -4 < x < 4}

- Interval notation is a way of writing the solutions of inequalities

( , ) if x does not equal the end numbers

[ , ] if x equals the end numbers

[ , ) , ( , ] if x equals one of the two end numbers

* The interval notation of the solution is (-4 , 4)

X: 2,4,6,8,10

Morgarella [4.7K]

~Hello There!~

12/2 = 6

24/4 = 6

36/6 = 6

etc.

As you can see, y is always 6 times the value of x.

Therefore, the equation would be y = 6x

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck :)

Have A Great Day ^_^

The mean number of words per minute (WPM) read by sixth graders is 8888 with a standard deviation of 1414 WPM. If 137137 sixth g

Bingel [31]

Noticing that there is a pattern of repetition in the question (the numbers are repeated twice), we are assuming that the mean number of words per minute is 88, the standard deviation is of 14 WPM, as well as the number of sixth graders is 137, and that there is a need to estimate the probability that the sample mean would be greater than 89.87.

Answer:

"The probability that the sample mean would be greater than 89.87 WPM" is about $\\ P(z>1.56) = 0.0594$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of the distribution of sample means. Roughly speaking, we have the probability distribution of samples obtained from the same population. Each sample mean is an estimation of the population mean, and we know that this distribution behaves normally for samples sizes equal or greater than 30 $\\ n \geq 30$ . Mathematically

$\\ \overline{X} \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$ [1]

In words, the latter distribution has a mean that equals the population mean, and a standard deviation that also equals the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size.

Moreover, we know that the variable Z follows a normal standard distribution, i.e., a normal distribution that has a population mean $\\ \mu = 0$ and a population standard deviation $\\ \sigma = 1$ .

$\\ Z = \frac{\overline{X} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ [2]

From the question, we know that

The population mean is $\\ \mu = 88$ WPM
The population standard deviation is $\\ \sigma = 14$ WPM

We also know the size of the sample for this case: $\\ n = 137$ sixth graders.

We need to estimate the probability that a sample mean being greater than $\\ \overline{X} = 89.87$ WPM in the distribution of sample means. We can use the formula [2] to find this question.

The probability that the sample mean would be greater than 89.87 WPM

$\\ Z = \frac{\overline{X} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{89.87 - 88}{\frac{14}{\sqrt{137}}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{1.87}{\frac{14}{\sqrt{137}}}$

$\\ Z = 1.5634 \approx 1.56$

This is a standardized value and it tells us that the sample with mean 89.87 is 1.56 standard deviations above the mean of the sampling distribution.

We can consult the probability of P(z<1.56) in any cumulative standard normal table available in Statistics books or on the Internet. Of course, this probability is the same that $\\ P(\overline{X} < 89.87)$ . Then

$\\ P(z$

However, we are looking for P(z>1.56), which is the complement probability of the previous probability. Therefore

$\\ P(z>1.56) = 1 - P(z$

$\\ P(z>1.56) = P(\overline{X}>89.87) = 0.0594$

Thus, "The probability that the sample mean would be greater than 89.87 WPM" is about $\\ P(z>1.56) = 0.0594$ .

Mary took out a loan to buy a $30,000 boat but had $2,000 cash to put down.Which of the following is true? a. Mary decreased bot

Art [367]

Answer: The answer is (b) Mary increased both assets and liabilities.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Mary is going to buy a boat worth $30,000 with the help of a loan but she had $2000 cash to put down.

As a result, Mary took the loan for $28,000 to buy the boat. This will add one more number to the number of Mary's assets and also add one more number to the number of liabilities Mary has.

Therefore, after this purchase, the number of assets and the number of liabilities will both increase for Mary.

Thus, the correct option is (b) Mary increased both assets and liabilities.

Which statement describes the function y=ax^n when a=1 and n is odd?

julsineya [31]

ANSWER

B. The graph is symmetric about the origin

EXPLANATION.

The given function is

$y = a {x}^{n}$

When a=1,

$y = {x}^{n}$

Let,

$f(x)= {x}^{n}$

$f(-x)= {( - x)}^{n}$

Since n is odd,

$f(-x)=-{( x)}^{n}$

$\Rightarrow f(-x)=-f(x)$

This implies that, the function

$y={x}^{n}$

is symmetric with respect to origin.

The correct answer is B
