Answer: 64

Step-by-step explanation:

If EFGH is a parallelogram, its diagonals bisect each other meaning EJ and JG are congruent.

EJ = JG

4w + 4 = 2w + 18

Subtract 2w from both sides

2w + 4 = 18

Subtract 4 from both sides

2w = 14

Divide both sides by 2

w = 7

EG = EJ + JG

EG = 4w + 4 + 2w + 18

EG = 6w + 22

Now that we know what 'w' is, we can substitute it for 7

EG = 6 (7) + 22

EG = 42 + 22 = 64

The measure of EG is 64.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Δ DEF

By applying pythagoras theoram,

DE = $\sqrt{EF^{2} - DF^{2} }$

= $\sqrt{17^{2} - 15^{2} } = \sqrt{289 - 225} = \sqrt{64} =8$

∴ DE = 8

In Δ ABC

BC = y = 12 sin 30° = 6

AC = $\sqrt{3}$ + DE + x = $\sqrt{3}$ + 8 + x = 12 cos 30°

⇒ 9.73 + x = 10.39

Answer:

B: 4 lb shrimp and 8 lb flounder

Step-by-step explanation:

if the price of shrimp is twice the price for flounder, you will have twice as much flounder as you have shrimp, so in terms the only answer that applies to this is B.

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Sample size is $n=423$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Margin of error $=4$ %

Confidence level $=90$ %

Suppose, sample proportion $=0.5$

i.e. $\hat{P}=0.5$

We know that,

Margin of error $=2^*\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n} }$

∴ $1.64\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{n} } \leq 4\%$

$\Rightarrow 1.64\sqrt{\frac{0.25}{n} } \leq 0.04$

$\Rightarrow \frac{0.5}{\sqrt{n} } \leq \frac{0.04}{1.64}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{0.5}{\sqrt{n} } \leq 0.0243$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{n}\geq \frac{0.5}{0.0243}$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{n}\geq 20.57$

squaring on both side,

∴ $n=423.1249$

Hence, the sample size is,

$n=423$

Hence, the correct option is $(b).$
