By applying the segment addition postulate, the <u>value of v = 7</u>

According to the Segment Addition Postulate, it holds that if point C is between points D and E, therefore:

DC + CE = DE

Given that:

$DC = 2v-15\\\\CE = 3v-8\\\\DE = 27$

Therefore, by substitution, we will have the following equation:

$(2v-15) + (3v-8) = 27$

Open the bracket and solve for the value of v.

$2v-15 + 3v-8 = 27$

Add like terms

$5v - 23 = 27$

Add 23 to both sides

$5v - 23+ 23 = 27 + 23\\\\5v = 50$

Divide both sides by 5

v = 10

Therefore, using the segment addition postulate, the <u>value of v = 10</u>

The point (1, −1) is on the terminal side of angle θ, in standard position. What are the values of sine, cosine, and tangent of

mixer [17]

Notice the picture below

x = 1 and y = -1

now... recall your SOH CAH TOA $\bf sin(\theta)=\cfrac{y}{r}
\qquad 
% cosine
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{x}{r}
\qquad 
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{y}{x}$

now.. what's the value for "r" or the radius? well, using the pythagorean theorem $\bf c^2=a^2+b^2\implies c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a=x\\
b=y\\
c=r
\end{cases}$

The 7 a.m. flight from Dallas to Chicago is on time 75% of the time. Fran created this spinner to simulate the scenario.

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

CORRECT OPTION is (C) The flight will be late on one of the three days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 7am flight from Dallas to Chicago is on time 75% of the time.

A spinner with four sections was created by Fran to simulate this scenario.

Since the 4 sections were equal, it means each section was 25% of the spinner.

3 sections were shaded. That implies 25 × 3 = 75% of the spinner was shaded area.

This coincides with the 75% probability that the flight is on time on a given day.

In other words, if the spinner's pointer lands on shaded area, the flight will be on time. If the pointer lands on an unshaded portion, the flight will be late.

Now Fran spun the spinner 3 times so she has 3 outcomes. The outcomes are:

- Shaded - Shaded - Unshaded

CORRECT OPTION is (C) The flight will be late on one of the three days.
