The correct answer on Edgen is:

It illustrates income distribution. In economics, the Lorenz curve is a graphical representation of the distribution of income or of wealth. It was developed by Max O. Lorenz in 1905 for representing inequality of the wealth distribution. The curve is a graph showing the proportion of overall income or wealth assumed by the bottom x% of the people, although this is not rigorously true for a finite population.

I just answered this question and this is the right answer.

What is the common differences or common ratio in the sequence

siniylev [52]

Answer:

Use the formula for Arithmetic only if it is Arithmetic: a1+ (n-1)d

a represents the first number in the sequence, n represents the number, and d represent common difference

Use the formula for geometric sequence: an=a1r the exponent of r to n-1

an represents the nth term you are trying to find, a1 represents the first number, r represents the common ratio, and n-1 is just the nth term minus 1.

Once you figure out if the sequence is arithmetic or geometric you one of those formulas.

Find the measure of x in each figure.

Alex

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 2x and 40° are complementary angles.

$\therefore \: (2x) \degree + 40 \degree = 90 \degree \\ \\ \therefore \: (2x) \degree = 90 \degree - 40 \degree \\ \\ \therefore \: (2x) \degree = 50 \degree \\ \\ \therefore \: 2x = 50 \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{50}{2} \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore \: x = 25}}$
