Answer: DEb = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given information</u>

CEF = 7x + 21

FEB = 10x - 3

<u>Given expression deducted from the definition of the bisector</u>

FEB = CEF

<u>Substitute values into the expression</u>

10x - 3 = 7x + 21

<u>Subtract 7x on both sides</u>

10x - 3 - 7x = 7x + 21 - 7x

3x - 3 = 21

<u>Add 3 on both sides</u>

3x - 3 + 3 = 21 + 3

3x = 24

<u>Divide 3 on both sides</u>

3x / 3 = 24 / 3

x = 8

<u>Find the sum of the angle of CEF and FEB</u>

 7x + 21 + 10x - 3

=7 (8) + 21 + 10 (8) - 3

=56 + 21 + 80 - 3

=77 + 80 - 3

=157 - 3

=154

<u>Subtract 154 from the straight angle</u>

DEB = 180 - 154

\boxed{DEB = 26}

Hope this helps!! :)

Suppose X has a continuous uniform distribution over the interval [1.3, 6.2]. Round your answers to 3 decimal places.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

(a) 3.75

(b) 2.00083

(c) 0.4898

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that X has a continuous uniform distribution over the interval [1.3, 6.2].

(a)

Compute the mean of X as follows:

\mu_{X}=\frac{a+b}{2}=\frac{1.3+6.2}{2}=3.75

(b)

Compute the variance of X as follows:

\sigm^{2}_{X}=\frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}=\frac{(6.2-1.3)^{2}}{12}=2.00083

(c)

Compute the value of P(X < 3.7) as follows:

P(X < 3.7)=\int\limits^{3.7}_{1.3}{\frac{1}{6.2-1.3}}\, dx\\\\=\frac{1}{4.9}\times [x]^{3.7}_{1.3}\\\\=\frac{3.7-1.3}{4.9}\\\\\approx 0.4898

Thus, the value of P(X < 3.7)  is 0.4898.

how would you multiply negative numbers? or negative fractions for example -12 x 12 is what and please explain good
galina1969 [7]

Answer:-12 x 12 =- 144.

What you do is multiply regularly then add the negative sign, but if your multiplying  2 negatives it’s a positive answer. I cant help with the Fractions caz I’m not good at them lol .

The dot plot shows the number of pencils each boy has at his desk in class.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The median is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the median for the number of pencils

Firstly, we have to write out the numbers that form the box plot ; we have this as;

1,1,1,2,2,2,2,3,3,5

the median is sum of the 5th and 6th term divided by 2

The 5th term is 2

The 6th term is 2

So the median is;

(2 + 2)/2

= 4/2 = 2

Which expression is equivalent to -0.55 – 0.47a + a?
Leto [7]

Answer:

-0.55 + 0.53a

Step-by-step explanation:

              -0.55 – 0.47a + a

 To find an expression equivalent to this, we must simplify the equation to a reasonable extent;

         -0.55 – 0.47a + a

      = -0.55 + 0.53a

      = 0.53a - 0.55

The expression equivalent to the given one is -0.55 + 0.53a  or 0.53a - 0.55
