Answer:

FG is 18 units

Step-by-step explanation:

if the trapezoid is isosceles then DE = GF so we can create this equation:

4x + 2 = 5x - 2

4x = 5x - 4

-x = -4

x = 4

FG = 4(4)+2 which is 18

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

A. Yes, because the sum of the probabilities in the table is equal to 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given table shows the probabilities of profit values at a company.

Negative values of x represents company's losses, positive values of x represents company's gains and x = 0 represents that company neither loses nor gains.

Add all probabilities:

$0.09+0.24+0.33+0.22+0.12=1$

This means the table secribes the probability distibution.Hence, correct option is option A.
