<h3>Answer: C) 12</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. I'm using the points A,B,C,D,E to help label the triangles, and to label the angles as well.

For now, let's focus on triangle DEC.

The top most angle is given as D = 65. Note how the angles D and E are opposite the congruent lines (marked with the red single tickmarks). This means that angles D and E are congruent to one another. So E = 65 as well. This is shown in the diagram below.

For now we don't know what angle C is, so we'll call it y. More specifically, we'll make y the measure of angle DCE.

For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180

y+65+65 = 180

y+130 = 180

y = 180-130

y = 50

So angle DCE is 50 degrees.

-------------------------------

Now we move onto triangle ABC.

Because angles DCE and ACB are vertical angles, this makes angle ACB 50 degrees also. Effectively, anywhere you see a 'y' in the diagram below, replace it with 50.

So triangle ABC has the three angles y = 50, y = 50 and 7x-4

We can solve for x like so

y+y+(7x-4) = 180

50+50+(7x-4) = 180

7x+96 = 180

7x = 180-96

7x = 84

x = 84/7

x = 12

This points to choice C as the final answer.

Which cross-sectional shapes do you find the most surprising? Explain why.
Zanzabum

By critically observing the cross-sections of the three-dimensional object I used, a cone is the cross-sectional shape I find most surprising.

<h3>The cross-section of a three-dimensional object?</h3>

In this exercise, you're required to use an online tool to investigate and determine the cross-sections of three-dimensional objects such as pyramids, cylinders, cones, etc., by passing different planes through them.

By critically observing the cross-sections of the three-dimensional object I used, a cone is the cross-sectional shape I find most surprising because rotating the slice around Y produced a circular curve that transitioned into a parabolic curve.

probability that cars have been assembled in a particular plant as follows: P(plant1)=20% , P(plant 2)=24% , P(plant 3.25% , P(p
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

16800/year

Step-by-step explanation:

Plant 1= 20%

Plant 2 = 24%

Plant 3 = 25%

Plant 4 = 31%

Total cars produced 100% = 1,200,000

Number of cars produced in plant 1 =

20% of 1,200,000 = 0.2 x 1,200,000 = 240,000 cars

Number of cars produced in plant 2 =

24% of 1,200,000 = 0.24 x 1,200,000 = 288,000 cars

Number of cars produced in plant 3 =

25% of 1,200,000 = 0.25 x 1,200,000 = 300,000 cars

Number of cars produced in plant 4 =

31% of 1,200,000 = 0.31 x 1,200,000 = 372,000 cars

Number of cars with no warranty claim in plant 1/year 223200

Number of cars with warranty claims in plant 1 + number of cars with no warranty claim in plant 1  = total number of cars produced in plant 1

X + 223200 = 240000  

X = 240000 - 223200

X = 16800/year

number of cars with warranty claim in plant 1/ year is 16800
