Step-by-step explanation:

angle 2 = 2x + 10 deg (corresponding angles) or 180 - 4x + 46 deg (angles on a straight line are supplementary)

therefore,

2x + 10 = 226 - 4x

6x = 216

x = 36

hence,

angle 2 = 2(36) + 10 = 82deg

A store owner uses a selling price of 125% of the cost of an item. If a pair of jeans has a sales price of $52.50, what cost doe

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The cost store owner pay for the pair of jeans is $42.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A store owner uses a selling price of 125% of the cost of an item.

If a pair of jeans has a sales price of $52.50.

Now, to find the cost price of the store owner pay for the pair of jeans.

Let the cost price of jeans be $x.$

Sell price of jeans = $\$52.50.$

Now, to get the cost price of store owner pay for the pair of jeans:

As given the store owner uses a selling price of 125% of the cost of an item.

According to question:

$125\%\ of\ x=52.50$

$\frac{125}{100} \times x=52.50$

$1.25x=52.50$

Dividing both sides by 1.25 we get:

$x=42.$

The cost price of jeans = $42.

Therefore, the cost store owner pay for the pair of jeans is $42.

Unknown variables in Equations 1. 7=w/14 2.42/n=7 3. 324/18=a

belka [17]

Answer:

w = 98

n = 6

a = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1)

7 = w/ 14

All you need to do is multiply each side by 14 to find w:

7(14) = W

W = 98

Question 2)

42/n = 7

For this one, first multiply each side by "n":

42 = 7n

and then divide both sides by 7:

N = 6

Question 3)

All you need to do for this question is divide 324 by 18 to find "a":

324/18 = a

a = 18

I hope this helps!

The distribution of blood cholesterol level in the

qaws [65]

Answer: A. Mean of sampling means $=\mu=168\ Mg/dl$

Standard deviation of sampling means = $2.86\ mg/dl$

B. The probability that your sample has mean less than 165 is 0.1492 .

Given : The distribution of blood cholesterol level in the

population of young men aged 20 to 34 years is close to normal with

mean $\mu= 168$ Mg/dl and standard deviation $\sigma= 35$ mg/dl.

Sample size : n= 150

Let $\overline{x}$ sample mean values.

A. The mean and the standard deviation of the distribution of the sampling means would be :

Mean of sampling means = $\mu=168\ Mg/dl$

Standard deviation of sampling means = $\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{35}{\sqrt{150}}$

$=\dfrac{35}{12.2474487}\\\\=2.85773803649\approx2.86\ mg/dl$

The probability that your sample has mean less than 165 would be

$P(\overline{x}$

Hence , the probability that your sample has mean less than 165 is 0.1492 .
