Answer:

AB = BC = AC = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is equilateral then the 3 sides are congruent.

Equate any 2 sides and solve for x , that is

AC = AB , so

11x - 7 = 6x + 3 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

5x - 7 = 3 ( add 7 to both sides )

5x = 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 2

Then

AC = 11x - 7 = 11(2) - 7 = 22 - 7 = 15 , thus

AB = BC = AC = 15

Please help ASAP! <br> X= <br><br> A) 4<br> B) 7<br> C) 9
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

C) x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When two segments intersect in a circle like so, the product of the two parts of one segment will be equal to the product of the two parts of the other segment.

So,<em> 3 * 6 = x * 2</em>

Multiply: 18 = x * 2

Divide: x = 9

HELP HELP !!!! PLEASE I NEED HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM !!!
Vesnalui [34]
This one is best done by elimination:

We need to start 4 meters away, so B is clearly wrong. 

We first move towards Mr. Wilson (i.e. distance is decreasing) so A is wrong.

Our speed is faster on the way back, so the two sloped section must have differing slopes, so D is wrong.
(D also doesn't start at 4, it's wrong for two reasons.)

Only C is left.

We can check each part to make sure. First we start at 4m, then move away, then stay still (zero slope) for three seconds, then move back faster (higher slope). All parts check out ok.

vitfil [10]

Answer:

Therefore, the sampling distribution of \bar{x} is normal with a mean equal to 9 hours and a standard deviation of 0.7969 hours.

The 95% interval estimate of the population mean \mu is

LCL = 7.431 hours to UCL = 10.569 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the number of hours a legal professional works on a typical workday. Imagine that X is normally distributed with a known standard deviation of 12.6.

The population standard deviation is  

\sigma = 12.6 \: hours

A sample of 250 legal professionals was surveyed, and the sample's mean response was 9 hours.

The sample size is

n = 250

The sample mean is  

\bar{x} = 9 \: hours  

Since the sample size is quite large then according to the central limit theorem, the sample mean is approximately normally distributed.

The population mean would be the same as the sample mean that is

 \mu = \bar{x} = 9 \: hours

The sample standard deviation would be  

$ s = {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }  $

Where   is the population standard deviation and n is the sample size.

$ s = {\frac{12.6}{\sqrt{250} }  $

s = 0.7969 \: hours

Therefore, the sampling distribution of \bar{x} is normal with a mean equal to 9 hours and a standard deviation of 0.7969 hours.

The population mean confidence interval is given by

\text {confidence interval} = \mu \pm MoE\\\\

Where the margin of error is given by

$ MoE = t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } ) $ \\\\

Where n is the sampling size, s is the sample standard deviation and  is the t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level.

The t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level is

Significance level = α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 250 - 1 = 249

From the t-table at α = 0.025 and DoF = 249

t-score = 1.9695

MoE = t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\\\MoE = 1.9695\cdot \frac{12.6}{\sqrt{250} } \\\\MoE = 1.9695\cdot 0.7969\\\\MoE = 1.569\\\\

So the required 95% confidence interval is

\text {confidence interval} = \mu \pm MoE\\\\\text {confidence interval} = 9 \pm 1.569\\\\\text {LCI } = 9 - 1.569 = 7.431\\\\\text {UCI } = 9 + 1.569 = 10.569

The 95% interval estimate of the population mean \mu is

LCL = 7.431 hours to UCL = 10.569 hours

an item that was selling for $72 is reduced to $60 find the percent decrease in price round your answer to the nearest tenth of
lyudmila [28]

The amount of decrease is $12.00 :$72.00 - $60.00 = $12.00

 you then divide the amount of decrease by the original price to find the  percent decrease:

   $12.00 ÷ $72.00  =  .166666...  =  16.7%
