Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Statement                                           Reason

ΔWZX and ΔYZX are                         Given

right angled triangles

WX = YX                                              Given

XZ ≅ XZ                                               Reflexive property. The reflexive  

                                                            property of congruence states that              

                                                            any shape is congruent to itself.

∠XZW = ∠XZY                                     Definition of right angle.

∠XWZ = ∠XYZ                                     Definition of isosceles triangle.

                                                             Triangle XYW forms a right angled  

                                                             triangle since YX = WX

∠XWZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZW = 180°           Sum of angles in triangle WZX

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ = 180°            Sum of angles in triangle YZX

∠XWZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZW =                 Substitution

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ

∠XYZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZY =                 Substitution

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ

∠WXZ = ∠YXZ                                  Simplification

How to Factor r^2-5r-14
12345 [234]

Answer:

(r-7)(r+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's look at the -14. Possible factors for that number are (-2, 7) (2, -7) (1, -14) and (-1, 14).

Now, let's look at the -5. How can we make -5 with the pairs that we just found?

The only possible way is 2 and -7 (added together equals -5)

Help! What is the answer?
fiasKO [112]

Answer: 22.4

Explanation:

The pieces of the chords multiply together to get the same result. This is from the intersecting chord theorem.

The first chord has pieces of 10 and x, which multiply to 10*x

This is equal to the other product found by multiplying the pieces 14 and 16 (from the other chord)

10*x = 14*16

10x = 224

x = 224/10 ... divide both sides by 10

x = 22.4

Approximately 52% of all recent births were boys. In a simple random sample of 100 recent births, 49 were boys and 51 were girls
Leni [432]

Answer:

Option A is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that approximately 52% of all recent births were boys. In a simple random sample of 100 recent births, 49 were boys and 51 were girls. The most likely explanation for the difference between the observed results and the expected results in this case is

A) variability due to sampling

-- True because there is a slight difference whichmay be due to sampling fluctuations.

B) bias

False because given that 100 random births selected

C) nonsampling error

False.  There is no chance for systematic error here.

d) Confounding:  There is no confounding variable present inchild birth since each is independent of the other

e) a sampling frame that is incomplete

False because the sampling is done correctly.

LINEAR MODELS (functions)
Nuetrik [128]
That question mark is filled in with the y-intercept.  The y-intercept is where the graph goes through the y-axis.  Our graph goes through the y-axis at 1, so the equation is y = 4x + 1
