Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

BD=DC

5x-26=2x+1

5x-2x=1+26

3x=27

x=9

BC=2x+1

=2*9+1

BC =19

so AB=AC-BC

AB=43-19

AB=24

notsponge [240]

The question given is incomplete, I googled and got the complete question as below:

You are a waterman daily plying the waters of Chesapeake Bay for blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus), the best-tasting crustacean in the world. Crab populations and commercial catch rates are highly variable, but the fishery is under constant pressure from over-fishing, habitat destruction, and pollution. These days, you tend to pull crab pots containing an average of 2.4 crabs per pot. Given that you are economically challenged as most commercial fishermen are, and have an expensive boat to pay off, you’re always interested in projecting your income for the day. At the end of one day, you calculate that you’ll need 7 legal-sized crabs in your last pot in order to break even for the day. Use these data to address the following questions. Show your work.

a. What is the probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs?

b. What is the probability that your last pot will be empty?

Answer:

a. Probability = 0.0083

b. Probability = 0.0907

Step-by-step explanation:

This is Poisson distribution with parameter λ=2.4

a)

The probability that your last pot will have the necessary 7 crabs is calculated below:

P(X=7)=  {e-2.4*2.47/7!} = 0.0083

b)

The probability that your last pot will be empty is calculated as:

P(X=0)=  {e-2.4*2.40/0!} = 0.0907

What are the steps on how to copy an angle? (Geometry)
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a point P that will be the vertex of the new angle.

From P, draw a ray PQ. ...

Place the compasses on point A, set to any convenient width.

Draw an arc across both sides of the angle, creating the points J and K as shown.

Hope this helps :)

If the point (a,3) lies on the graph of the equation 5x + y = 8, then a=<br>a.01<br>b.0-1<br>c.0-7​
fomenos

Answer:

A (a = 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

A coordinate point is always in the form (x,y) that means the first point is always x-coordinate and the second point is always y-coordinate.

The equation given is:

5x + y = 8

The point is (a,3), so that means x = a and y = 3

We substitute the values into the equation and find a. Shown below:

5x + y = 8

5(a) + (3) = 8

5a + 3 = 8

5a = 8 - 3

5a = 5

a = 5/5

a = 1

Answer choice A is right

What are the steps to solving this limit?
patriot [66]

Answer:

lim(x---->0) = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

first: sin(x-π/2)= -cosx

so the equation will be :

lim(x---->0) = [-6cos(ax)-1}/cosx

solve :

lim(x---->0) =  [-(6cos(a(0))-1}/cos(0)

cos0=1

lim(x---->0)=(-(6(1)-1)/1

lim(x---->0)=-6+1/1

lim(x---->0)=-5

The number of patients treated at Dr. Artin’s dentist office each day was recorded for nine days. These are the data: 6, 6, 6, 5
klemol [59]

Answer:

D) 5.6, 6, 6, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we start solving this problem, we need to first rearrange the provided data from smallest to greatest, so we get:

5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6

now we can find the mean. The mean is nothing but the average of the provided values, so we need to add them and then divide them into the total amount of data:

mean=\frac{5+5+5+5+6+6+6+6+6}{9}=5.6

next, in an odd number of data, the median is the middle number when written in order. In this case the middle number (the one in the position 5) is 6, so:

median=6

the mode will tell you what is the value that has the greatest number of occurrencies. This is the number that appears the most on our list.

Mode=6

and the range is the difference between the greatest value and the smallest value:

Range=6-5=1

so the answer is D.
