Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles add to 80 degrees. Two remote angles always equal the exterior angle not connected to them.

That means that

x + 5 + x - 5 = 80

2x = 80

x = 40

The base angle is

40 + 40 + y = 180

80 + y = 180

y = 100

Note

You could do this much quicker by noticing that

80 + y = 189

y = 100

No he is not right

The given 2 angles are x + 5 which is 45 and x - 5 which is 35

All he got correct was the fact that the third angle is 100 degrees.

The bottom left angle is 180 -80=(100)

So the remaining 2 angles are equal 80
As all angles in a triangle are equal to 180

X+5 + x - 5 =80
Simplify
2x=80
X=40

Soo one of the angles are 40-5 which is (35)
And the other is 40+5 which is (45)
So sean is not correct
~sorry sean teehee

Timothy has $1111 and Mary has $777. How much money does Timothy need to give Mary, so that they would have the same amount of m

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

167

We do 1111+777 for the total and that is 1888

1888/2=944

then 1111-944=167; then they will have equal amounts!!

LUV YA!!

The director of admissions at Kinzua University in Nova Scotia estimated the distribution of student admissions for the fall sem

wariber [46]

Answer:

In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:

$E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)$

And if we use the values obtained we got:

$E(X)=(1060*0.5) +(1400*0.1) +(1620*0.4)=1318$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the number of admisions at the universit, and we have this probability distribution given:

X 1060 1400 1620

P(X) 0.5 0.1 0.4

In statistics and probability analysis, the expected value "is calculated by multiplying each of the possible outcomes by the likelihood each outcome will occur and then summing all of those values".

The variance of a random variable Var(X) is the expected value of the squared deviation from the mean of X, E(X).

And the standard deviation of a random variable X is just the square root of the variance.

In order to calculate the expected value we can use the following formula:

$E(X)=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i)$

And if we use the values obtained we got:

$E(X)=(1060*0.5) +(1400*0.1) +(1620*0.4)=1318$

If h(x) = −3x − 10, find h(−3). (1 point)

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

h(- 3) = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = - 3 into h(x) , that is

h(- 3) = - 3(- 3) - 10 = 9 - 10 = - 1
