By definition, two angles are supplementary if the sum of them is 180 degrees. In this case (see figure attached with the answer) the line AD is transversal to lines AB and DC. This is a proof of the Same-side interior angle theorem.
This theorem states that if we have two lines that are parallel and we intercept those two lines with a line that is transversal to both, same-side interior angles are formed, and also sum 180º, in other words, they are supplementary angles.
Then:
By the definition of a parallelogram, AB∥DC. AD is a transversal between these sides, so ∠A and ∠D are <em><u>same-side interior angles</u></em>. Because AB and DC are <em><u>parallel</u></em>, the same-side interior angles must be <em><u>supplementary</u></em> by the same-side interior angles theorem. Therefore, ∠A and ∠D are supplementary.
Answer:
Probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 100 million dollars is 0.8413.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the mean income of firms in the industry for a year is 95 million dollars with a standard deviation of 5 million dollars. Also, incomes for the industry are distributed normally.
<em>Let X = incomes for the industry</em>
So, X ~ N()
Now, the z score probability distribution is given by;
Z = ~ N(0,1)
where, = mean income of firms in the industry = 95 million dollars
= standard deviation = 5 million dollars
So, probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 100 million dollars is given by = P(X < 100 million dollars)
P(X < 100) = P( <
) = P(Z < 1) = 0.8413 {using z table]
Therefore, probability that a randomly selected firm will earn less than 100 million dollars is 0.8413.
