Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked angles are corresponding, hence congruent.
10x -14 = 7x -8
3x = 6 . . . . . . . . add 14-7x to both sides
x = 2 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is
x² + 9² = 11²
x² + 81 = 121 ( subtract 81 from both sides )
x² = 40 ( take square root of both sides )
x =

Answer:
46.08 students said that chicken is their favorite food.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X </em>denote the number of students who liked chicken.
The proportion of students who liked chicken is, <em>p</em> = 0.08.
About <em>n</em> = 576 students were surveyed about their favorite food.
Every student's answer was independent of the others.
Thus, the random variable <em>X</em> follows a binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 576 and <em>p</em> = 0.08.
The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

Then expected number of students who said that chicken is their favorite food is:

Thus, 46.08 students said that chicken is their favorite food.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

Here [ a, b ] = [ - 10, 10 ], thus
f(b) = f(10) = 10² + 9(10) + 18 = 100 + 90 + 18 = 208
f(a) = f(- 10) = (- 10)² + 9(- 10) + 18 = 100 - 90 + 18 = 28, thus
average rate of change =
=
= 9
-- When you start out, there are 10 coins in your pocket, and 4 of them are nickels.
If you reach in and pick one coin, with mittens on (so you can't <u>feel</u> which one you're grabbing), your chance of picking a nickel is 4/10 .
-- Then there are 9 coins left in your pocket, and 3 of them are nickels.
-- NOW if you reach in and pick another coin, the chance of picking a nickel is 3/9 .
-- The probability of BOTH events is
P = (4/10) x (3/9)
P = 12/90
<em>P = 13.33 % </em>
