Do you use the same set of parallel and perpendicular lines? Why?

2 answers:

6 0

Parallel lines are lines in a plane that are always the same distance apart. Parallel lines never intersect. Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a right (90 degrees) angle.

ABCD- parallelogram, If the perimeter of Triangle CPQ is 15cm, Find the perimeter of triangle BAQ. Find the perimeter of triangl

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral (has 4 sides and 4 angle) with two pair of parallel and opposite sides. Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal.

Given parallelogram ABCD:

AB = CD = 18 cm; BC = AD = 8 cm

∠P = ∠P, ∠PDA = ∠PCQ (corresponding angles are equal).

Hence ΔPCQ and ΔPDA are similar by angle-angle similarity theorem. For similar triangles, the ratio of their corresponding sides equal. Therefore:

$\frac{CD}{PC}= \frac{AD}{CQ}\\\\\frac{18}{6}=\frac{8}{x} \\\\x=\frac{6*8}{18}=\frac{8}{3}\ cm$

Perimeter of CPQ = CP + CQ + PQ

15 = 6 + 8/3 + PQ

PQ = 15 - (6 + 8/3)

PQ = 6.33

∠CQP = ∠AQB (vertical angles), ∠QCP = ∠QBA (alternate angles are equal).

Hence ΔCPQ and ΔABQ are similar by angle-angle similarity theorem

$\frac{AQ}{QP}=\frac{AB}{CP} \\\\\frac{AQ}{6.33} =\frac{18}{6} \\\\AQ=\frac{18}{6}*6.33\\\\AQ = 19$

$\frac{BQ}{CQ}=\frac{AB}{CP} \\\\\frac{BQ}{8/3} =\frac{18}{6} \\\\BQ=\frac{18}{6}*\frac{8}{3} \\\\BQ =8$

Perimeter of BAQ = AB + BQ + AQ = 18 + 8 + 19 = 45cm

PA = AQ + PQ = 19 + 6.33 = 25.33

PD = CD + DP = 18 + 6 = 24

Perimeter of PDA = PA + PD + AD = 24 + 25.33 + 8 = 57.33 cm

4(3-2x)=15 please helppp

mestny [16]

Answer:

x = -3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3-2x)=15

Distribute

12 -8x = 15

Subtract 12 from each side

12-8x-12 = 15-12

-8x =3

Divide each side by -8

-8x/-8 = 3/-8

x = -3/8

Assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Those test scores are normally distributed with a mean of

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The "probability that a given score is less than negative 0.84" is $\\ P(z$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have:

The random variable is normally distributed according to a standard normal distribution, that is, a normal distribution with $\\ \mu = 0$ and $\\ \sigma = 1$ .
We are provided with a z-score of -0.84 or $\\ z = -0.84$ .

Preliminaries

A z-score is a standardized value, i.e., one that we can obtain using the next formula:

$\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ [1]

Where

x is the raw value coming from a normal distribution that we want to standardize.
And we already know that $\\ \mu$ and $\\ \sigma$ are the mean and the standard deviation, respectively, of the normal distribution.

A z-score represents the distance from $\\ \mu$ in standard deviations units. When the value for z is negative, it "tells us" that the raw score is below $\\ \mu$ . Conversely, when the z-score is positive, the standardized raw score, x, is above the mean, $\\ \mu$ .

Solving the question

We already know that $\\ z = -0.84$ or that the standardized value for a raw score, x, is below $\\ \mu$ in 0.84 standard deviations.

The values for probabilities of the standard normal distribution are tabulated in the standard normal table, which is available in Statistics books or on the Internet and is generally in cumulative probabilities from negative infinity, - $\\ \infty$ , to the z-score of interest.

Well, to solve the question, we need to consult the standard normal table for $\\ z = -0.84$ . For this:

Find the cumulative standard normal table.
In the first column of the table, use -0.8 as an entry.
Then, using the first row of the table, find -0.04 (which determines the second decimal place for the z-score.)
The intersection of these two numbers "gives us" the cumulative probability for z or $\\ P(z$ .

Therefore, we obtain $\\ P(z$ for this z-score, or a slightly more than 20% (20.045%) for the "probability that a given score is less than negative 0.84".

This represent the area under the standard normal distribution, $\\ N(0,1)$ , at the left of z = -0.84.

To "draw a sketch of the region", we need to draw a normal distribution (symmetrical bell-shaped distribution), with mean that equals 0 at the middle of the distribution, $\\ \mu = 0$ , and a standard deviation that equals 1, $\\ \sigma = 1$ .

Then, divide the abscissas axis (horizontal axis) into equal parts of one standard deviation from the mean to the left (negative z-scores), and from the mean to the right (positive z-scores).

Find the place where z = -0.84 (i.e, below the mean and near to negative one standard deviation, $\\ -\sigma$ , from it). All the area to the left of this value must be shaded because it represents $\\ P(z$ and that is it.

The below graph shows the shaded area (in blue) for $\\ P(z$ for $\\ N(0,1)$ .

The equation y=0.002x-0.20 can be used to determine the approximate profit,y in dollars,of producing x items.solve for x. How ma

lakkis [162]

Answer:

1966600 items must be produced in other to profit $3933

Step-by-step explanation:

from the equation y = 0.002x -0.20

where y is the profit in dollars

and x is the number of items

then to get the number of item to be produced in other to profit $3933 ?

will be by substituting $3933 for y in the equation and solving for x,

3933 = 0.002x - 0.20

Firstly you will add 0.20 to both sides, which will be

3933 + 0.20 = 0.002x - 0.20 + 0.20

3933.20 = 0.002x

then we will divide both sides by 0.002

3933.20 / 0.002 = 0.002x / 0.002

therefore, x = 1966600
