Answer:

x = 50° and y = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 130° = 180° { being linear pair }

x = 180° - 130°

x = 50°

And we can see in the triangle two sides are equal so it is an isosceles triangle so the base angles are also equal.

Then

y + 50° + 50° = 180° { being sum of angles of triangle }

y + 100° = 180°

y = 180° - 100°

y = 80°

Hope it will help :)❤

P(k)=a^k=2 3 4 find value of a that makes this is a valid probability distribution

Vesna [10]

Sounds like you're asked to find $a$ such that

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=2}^4\mathbb P(k)=\mathbb P(2)+\mathbb P(3)+\mathbb P(4)=1$

In other words, find $a$ that satisfies

$a^2+a^3+a^4=1$

We can factorize this as

$a^4+a^3+a^2-1=a^3(a+1)+(a-1)(a+1)=(a+1)(a^3+a-1)=0$

In order that $\mathbb P(k)$ describes a probability distribution, require that $\mathbb P(k)\ge0$ for all $k$ , which means we can ignore the possibility of $a=-1$ .

Let $a=y+\dfrac xy$ .

$a^3+a-1=\left(y+\dfrac xy\right)^3+\left(y+\dfrac xy\right)-1=0$
$\left(y^3+3xy+\dfrac{3x^2}y+\dfrac{x^3}{y^3}\right)+\left(y+\dfrac xy\right)-1=0$

Multiply both sides by $y^3$ .

$y^6+3xy^4+3x^2y^2+x^3+y^4+xy^2-y^3=0$

We want to find $x\neq0$ that removes the quartic and quadratic terms from the equation, i.e.

$\begin{cases}3x+1=0\\3x^2+x=0\end{cases}\implies x=-\dfrac13$

so the cubic above transforms to

$y^6-y^3-\dfrac1{27}=0$

Substitute $y^3=z$ and we get

$z^2-z-\dfrac1{27}=0\implies z=\dfrac{9+\sqrt{93}}{18}$
$\implies y=\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{9+\sqrt{93}}{18}}$
$\implies a=\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{9+\sqrt{93}}{18}}-\dfrac13\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{18}{9+\sqrt{93}}}$

if you practice a musical instrument each day for 2/3 of an hour how many hours of practice would you get in each week?

RideAnS [48]

In order to find the answer of the given problem above, we need to make the solution below:
Given: 2/3 of an hour = practice each day
2/3 of an hour is equivalent to 40 minutes
And per week, there are 7 days. So we will multiply 40 minutes by 7, and the result is 280 minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we divide 280 by 60 and we get 4.67 hours. Therefore, each week, you would get 4.67 hours of practice on playing a musical instrument.
