Answer:

x=5,\\AC=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one triangle is inscribed in another, the two triangles are similar. As marked in the diagram, the sides of the larger triangle are exactly two times larger than the corresponding sides of the smaller triangle.

Therefore, we have:

2(x+2)=4x-6,\\2x+4=4x-6,\\10=2x,\\x=\boxed{5}

Since AC is marked by 4x-6:

AC=4(5)-6,\\AC=20-6,\\AC=\boxed{14}

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

A) Between 388 and 450

B) Between 357 and 481

C) Between 326 and 512

D) 99.995%

E) 72.907%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Mean; x¯ = 419 minutes

Standard deviation; σ = 31 minutes

A) From the empirical rule, 68% falls within 1 standard deviation.

Thus, it will be between;

419 - 1(31) and 419 + 1(31)

Thus gives;

Between 388 and 450

B) From the empirical rule, 95% falls within 2 standard deviation.

Thus, it will be between;

419 - 2(31) and 419 + 2(31)

Thus gives;

Between 357 and 481

C) From the empirical rule, 99.7% falls within 2 standard deviations.

Thus, it will be between;

419 - 3(31) and 419 + 3(31)

Thus;

Between 326 and 512

D)between 359 and 479 minutes, we will use z-s roe formula;

z = (479 - 359)/31

z = 3.871

From the z-table attached, we see that the probability is 0.99995 and as such, the percentage is 99.995%

E) worker spent 400 minutes on the job.

Thus;

z = (419 - 400)/31

z = 0.613

From z-tables, p = 0.72907

In percentage, we have; 72.907%

It's really hard for me to understand what they are asking.​
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

B is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 1, 2, and 3 added together should make 180 degrees.

So, if angle 2 is 70 degrees, you subtract 70 from 180 (180-70=110) and you're left with 110 degrees.

Angle 1 and 3 add together should make 110 degrees which makes B the only true statement.
