Use exterior angles to show that the angle sum of quadrilateral PQRS is 360°.

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

I don't really know but one triangle is 180 degrees so two added together is 360 degrees...

but ohh I remembered

a=c+d (since a+b=180 and c+d+b=180)

e=g+h (since e+f=180 and g+h+f= 180)

and the fact is that c+d+g+h+b+f=the angle sum of quadrilateral PQRS

a+e+b+f= the angle sum of quadrilateral PQRS (by substitutions)

a+e+b+f=360 (four angles are from one origin so it's 360 degrees )

You are working in a primary care office. Flu season is starting. For the sake of public health, it is critical to diagnose peop

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

E. 0.11

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 10% probability that a person has the flu.

A 90% probability that a person does not have the flu, just a cold.

If a person has the flu, a 99% probability of having a runny nose.

If a person just has a cold, a 90% probability of having a runny nose.

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}$

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that a person has the flu, given that she has a runny nose?

P(B) is the probability that a person has the flu. So P(B) = 0.1.

P(A/B) is the probability that a person has a runny nose, given that she has the flu. So P(A/B) = 0.99.

P(A) is the probability that a person has a runny nose. It is 0.99 of 0.1 and 0.90 of 0.90. So

$P(A) = 0.99*0.1 + 0.9*0.9 = 0.909$

What is the probability that this person has the flu?

$P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1*0.99}{0.909} = 0.1089 = 0.11$

The correct answer is:

E. 0.11

Which equation can be used to solve the following word problem? Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, and the total value of his c

9966 [12]

Answer:

Seth has 21 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of nickels. Since Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, then (n-8) is the number dimes.

Nickel is worth 5 cents and dime is worth 10 cents. Thus, n nickels are worth 5n cents and (n-8) dimes are worth 10(n-8) cents. The total value of Seth's coins is $2.35 that is 235 cents, then

$5n+10(n-8)=235.$

Solve this equation:

$5n+10n-80=235,\\ \\15n=235+80,\\ \\15n=315,\\ \\n=21.$

Y - 5 = -2x - 4<br><br>Write in simpilest form.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Y - 5 = -2x - 4

Add 5 on both sides.
y = -2x + 1

y = -2x + 1 is in simplest form.
