The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is always 180 degrees. True or False

Bezzdna [24]

False. it said ,"The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is always 360 degrees. ... By an inductive proof, this is true for all polygons." that is what i think.

He vertices of square pqrs are p -4,0 q 4,3 r 7,-5 and s -1,-18.Show that the diagonals of square pqrs are congruent perpendicul

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of the square given are P(-4, 0), Q(4, 3), R(7, -5) and, S(-1, -18)

For this diagonal to be right angle the slope of the diagonal must be m1=-1/m2

So let find the slope of diagonal 1

The two points are P and R

P(-4, 0), R(7, -5)

Slope is given as

m1=∆y/∆x

m1=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m1=-5-0/7--4

m1=-5/7+4

m1=-5/11

Slope of the second diagonal

Which is Q and S

Q(4, 3), S(-1, -18)

m2=∆y/∆x

m2=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m2=(-18-3)/(-1-4)

m2=-21/-5

m2=21/5

So, slope of diagonal 1 is not equal to slope two

This shows that the diagonal of the square are not diagonal.

But the diagonal of a square should be perpendicular, this shows that this is not a square, let prove that with distance between two points

Given two points

(x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

Distance between the two points is

D=√(y2-y1)²+(x2-x1)²

For line PQ

P(-4, 0), Q(4, 3)

PQ=√(3-0)²+(4--4)²

PQ=√(3)²+(4+4)²

PQ=√9+8²

PQ=√9+64

PQ=√73

Also let fine RS

R(7, -5) and, S(-1, -18)

RS=√(-18--5)+(-1-7)

RS=√(-18+5)²+(-1-7)²

RS=√(-13)²+(-8)²

RS=√169+64

RS=√233

Since RS is not equal to PQ then this is not a square, a square is suppose to have equal sides

But I suspect one of the vertices is wrong, vertices S it should have been (-1,-8) and not (-1,-18)

So using S(-1,-8)

Let apply this to the slope

Q(4, 3), S(-1, -8)

m2=∆y/∆x

m2=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m2=(-8-3)/(-1-4)

m2=-11/-5

m2=11/5

Now,

Let find the negative reciprocal of m2

Reciprocal of m2 is 5/11

Then negative of it is -5/11

Which is equal to m1

Then, the square diagonal is perpendicular

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it contains a golden sheet of paper, or it does not. The probability of a container containing a golden sheet of paper is independent of other containers. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

At Munder Difflin Paper Company, the manager Mitchell Short randomly places golden sheets of paper inside of 30% of their paper containers.

This means that $p = 0.3$

14 of these containers of paper.

This means that $n = 14$

What is the probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper?

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{14,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{14} = 0.0068$

$P(X = 1) = C_{14,1}.(0.3)^{1}.(0.7)^{13} = 0.0407$

$P(X = 2) = C_{14,2}.(0.3)^{2}.(0.7)^{12} = 0.1134$

$P(X = 3) = C_{14,3}.(0.3)^{3}.(0.7)^{11} = 0.1943$

$P(X = 4) = C_{14,4}.(0.3)^{4}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.2290$

$P(X = 5) = C_{14,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{9} = 0.1963$

$P(X = 6) = C_{14,6}.(0.3)^{6}.(0.7)^{8} = 0.1262$

$P(X < 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.0068 + 0.0407 + 0.1134 + 0.1943 + 0.2290 + 0.1963 + 0.1262 = 0.9067$

90.67% probability that John finds less than 7 golden sheets of paper

I need help with 8th grade math please hurry and correct answer please 40 points

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

2664.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is

V = 4/3 πr³

Multiply the radius (which is the diameter divided by 2), 8.6 by itself 3 times, and them multiply it by pi and 4/3 to achieve a volume of 2664.31 or aproximatley 2664.3.
