Answer:

y = 6, RS = 35 and ST = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

RS = 5y+5

ST = 2y+5

RT = 52

If we consider a number line,

RT = RS + ST

52 = 5y+5 + 2y+5

52 = 7y + 10

7y = 52-10

7y = 42

y = 6

RS = 5y+5

= 5(6)+5

= 35

ST = 2y+5

= 2(6) +5

= 17

Hence, this is the required solution.

Find the probability that when a couple has four children, at least one of them is a girl. (Assume that boys and girls are equ

AveGali [126]

Answer:

0.9375 = 93.75% probability that at least one of the four children is a girl.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

We have the following sample space

In which b means boy, g means girl

b - b - b - b

b - b - b - g

b - b - g - b

b - b - g - g

b - g - b - b

b - g - b - g

b - g - g - b

b - g - g - g

g - b - b - b

g - b - b - g

g - b - g - b

g - b - g - g

g - g - b - b

g - g - b - g

g - g - g - b

g - g - g - g

Total outcomes

There are 16 total outcomes(size of the sample space)

Desired outcomes

Of these outcomes, only 1(b - b - b - b) there is not a girl.

So the number of desired outcomes is 15.

Probability:

$P = \frac{15}{16} = 0.9375$

0.9375 = 93.75% probability that at least one of the four children is a girl.

Cw 10.5 10.5 V. W<br> A great

Semmy [17]

Answer:

Refer to step-by-step.

Step-by-step explanation:

12. x = 28

BC = x

AB = 96

AC = 100

We use the Pythagorean theorem to find the value of x.

a² + b² = c²

x² + 96² = 100²

x² + 9216 = 10000

x² = 10000-9216

x² = 784

√x² = √784

x = 28

13. x = 64

a² + b² = c²

48² + x² = 80²

2304 + x² = 6400

x² = 6400 - 2304

x² = 4096

√x² = √4096

x = 64

14. YES and 25 = 25

a² + b² = c²

3² + 4² = 5²

9 + 16 = 25

25 = 25

So this means that AB is tangent to the circle.

15. NO and 45 ≠ 49

a² + b² = c²

3² + 6² = 7²

9 + 36 = 49

45 = 49

So this means the AB is not tangent to the circle.

16. x = 4.5 and P = 52

To find the value of x, we need to determine the value of our hypotenuse.

QU is congruent to QT, therefore, QT = 4

UR is congruent with SR, therefore, UR = 13

PS is congruent to AB, therefore:

2x = 9

Divide both sides by 2

x = 4.5

The perimeter of a triangle is:

P = a + b + c

a = 9 + 4 or 13

b = 2(4.5) + 13 or 22

c = 4 + 13 or 17

P = 13 + 22 + 17

P = 52

17. x = 13 and P = 72

TJ is congruent to UJ, therefore, TJ = 13

x = 13

The perimeter of a parallelogram is:

P = 2(a+b)

a = HR + RK

b = KU + UJ

a = 13 + 5 or 18

b = 5 + 13 or 18

P = 2(18 + 18)

P = 2(36)

P = 72

18. x = 8 and P = 80

We know that part of the whole of 26 is 18 because one side is congruent to 18.

to find the value of the other half, we simply subtract 18 from 26.

26 - 18 = 8

x is congruent to 8, therefore x = 8

The line segment 14 is congruent to the opposite segment of x, therefore making the value 14.

So then we have:

a = 8 + 14 or 22

b = 26

c = 18 + 14 or 32

P = a + b + c

P = 22 + 26 + 32

P = 80

19. x = 6 and P = 52

Now we have the case of x + 2 is congruent to 8.

x + 2 = 8

Combine like terms.

x = 8 - 2

x = 6

Now that we have the value of x, we can simply look for the value of the line segment attached to it.

4 is congruent to the line segment attached to x + 2, therefore the value is 4.

To find the perimeter we have to add all sides together.

P = (8+5)+(5+9)+(9+4)+(8+4)

P = 52

20. x = 5, y = 2, z =10, and P = 68

Let's take this one step at a time.

First we look for x.

2x + 2 = 3x - 3

Combine like terms.

2x - 3x = -3 - 2

-x = -5

Divide both sides by -1.

x = 5

Now let's get the value of y.

5y - 2 = 3y + 2

Combine like terms.

5y - 3y = 2 + 2

2y = 4

Divide both sides by 2.

y = 2

Now let's look for z.

34 - 2z = z + 4

Combine like terms.

-2z - z = 4 - 34

-3z = -30

Divide both sides by -3.

z = 10

Now that we have the values of x, y, and z. We can substitute them to find the values of our segments.

2x + 2

2(5) + 2 = 12

3x - 3

3(5)-3 = 12

5y - 2

5(2) - 2 = 8

3y + 2

3(2) + 2 = 8

z + 4

10 + 4 = 14

34 - 2z

34 - 2(10)

34 - 20 = 14

Now that we have our values let's look for our perimeter.

P = a + b + c

P = (12 + 8) + (12 + 14) + (14 + 8)

P = 20 + 26 + 22

P = 68

(01.01 MC)Which number line shows the solution to 4 + (−4)?

Rasek [7]

The solution to the statement 4 + (-4) is correctly given by the third number line.

The solution given by plot 1 is : (-4) + (-4) as both arrows points 4 units to the left.

The solution given by plot 2 is : ( 4 + 4) as both arrows points 4 units to the right.

The solution given by plot 3 is (4) + (-4) as one arrow points 4 units to the left and the other points 4 units to the right.

The solution given by the plot 4 is (-4 + 8) as one arrow points 4 units to the left and the other points 8 units to the right.

Therefore, the Number line which shows the solution 4 + (-4) is the third number line.
