Answer:

x = 32, y = 51

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are congruent then corresponding angles and sides are congruent, then

∠ U = ∠ N and NP = US

Require to find ∠ N

∠ N = 180° - (24 + 142)° ← sum of angles in triangle

= 180° - 166°

= 14°

Thus

2x - 50 = 14 ( add 50 to both sides )

2x = 64 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 32

and

NP = US

2x - y = 13 ← substitute x = 32

2(32) - y = 13

64 - y = 13 ( subtract 64 from both sides )

- y = - 51 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 51

Answer:

x = 32, y = 51

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the longest side of ΔTUS is 13m and the longest side of ΔMNP is (2x-y). Thus:

2x - y = 13 --- Equation 1

You know the sum of angles in a triangle is 360°. Two of the angles are given in ΔMNP (142° & 24°) and the remaining angle is (2x-50)°. Thus:

142 + 24 + 2x - 50 = 180

2x + 116 = 180

2x = 180 - 116

2x = 64

x = 64 ÷ 2

x = 32 --- Equation 2

Substitute x = 32 into Equation 1:

2(32) - y = 13

64 - y = 13

-y = 13 - 64

= -51

y = 51 --- Equation 3

Your answer would be 22 watermelons.

We can find this by adding together the quantity of watermelons for each weight, so:

1 + 7 + 10 + 4 = 22

I hope this helps!

The average 30- to 39-year old man is 69.5 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 2.7 inches, while the average 30- to 39-yea

Answer:

b) LeBron is relatively taller because he has a larger z-score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

LeBron James:

Height of 81 inches, while the average 30- to 39-year old man is 69.5 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 2.7 inches, which means that we have to find Z when $X = 81, \mu = 69.5, \sigma = 2.7$

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{81 - 69.5}{2.7}$

$Z = 4.26$

Candace Parker:

Height of 76 inches, while the average 30- to 39-year old woman is 64.2 inches tall, with a standard deviation of 3.2 inches. This means that we have to find Z when $X = 76, \mu = 64.2, \sigma = 3.2$
