Hi there!

\large\boxed{UV = 13}

Since U and V are midpoints of the legs, then UV is the average of both WX and ZY.

Therefore:

(ZY + WX)/2 = UV

Substitute in the given expressions:

[(6x + 5) + (x + 7)]/2 = 8x - 3

Simplify by combining like terms:

(7x + 12)/2 = 8x - 3

Multiply both sides by 2:

7x + 12 = 16x - 6

Subtract 7x from both sides and add 6 to both sides:

18 = 9x

Divide both sides by 9:

18/9 = x

x = 2.

Plug in this value of x into the equation for UV:

8(2) - 3 = 16 - 3 = 13.

In-s [12.5K]
Multiply each term by a^2b^2:-

b^2y^2 + a^2x^2 = a^2b^2
subtract a^2x^2 from both sides
b^2y^2  = a^2b^2  - a^2x^2
Now divide both sides  by b^2

y^2 =  a^2 -  a^2x^2 / b^2  = a^2 (1 - x^2/b^2)

take positive square root ( because y > 0)

y  = a sqrt(1 - x^2/b^2)

Since the Boston marathon began in 1897, the finish time has been incrementally decreasing. The mean finish time to date is 231
morpeh [17]

Answer:

hello your question lacks the required options but i will provide a general answer to your question

answer : The mean value  and the standard deviation would allow us use a Z-score

Step-by-step explanation:

mean value = 231 minutes

standard deviation ( std ) = 40 minutes

sample size = 40

The parameters that would be applicable while use Z-score are : The given mean value and the standard deviation

This is because the value of a z-score gives us an information on how far we are from the mean score i.e. number of standard deviations

+Zscore means that the score  is above the average value

-Zscore means that the score is below the average value

"With patience a ruler may be persuaded, and a soft tongue can
Maru [420]

Answer:

Well rulers don't like to be proven wrong therefore you have to be patient in convincing a ruler that your idea is best. It's pretty much like what inception is in the movie.

A soft tongue is using calm words which in my opinion means you have the utmost confidence in what you're saying. I dont think it literally means bones will break but the person listening will feel as though they are completely wrong if a calm cool person is proving them wrong.
