Find the measurement of E<br> •56<br> •132<br> •51<br> •63
Burka [1]

Answer:

∠ E = 56°

Step-by-step explanation:

the external angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

∠ MGF is an exterior angle of the triangle , then

10x + 12 = 5x - 4 + 76

10x + 12 = 5x + 72 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

5x + 12 = 72 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

5x = 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 12

Then

∠ E = 5x - 4 = 5(12) - 4 = 60 - 4 = 56°

So they played 48 home games. They won 3/4, so they won 36 and lost 12.  

They played 48 away games. They won 2/3, so they won 32 and lost 16.  

All tolled, they won 36 + 32 = 68 games and lost 12 + 16 = 28 games.

The angled lines used to indicate the surfaces which are cut by the imaginary cutting-plane are called:
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Section lines

Step-by-step explanation:

Sectioning is the process of cutting a surface by an imaginary plane, the view of the surface that is cut is shown in the section view.

Section lines are used to indicate where an imaginary cutting plane cuts a material. The imaginary cut is then represented using section lines which are usually thin, crosshatched.

Section lines shows the surface that have been cut by the cutting plane. There are different ways of sectioning such as full section, half section, off set section and so on

3. Using techniques from Calculus, show directly that the maximum value of a 1-D Gaussian distribution occurs at the point x = μ
Vilka [71]

Answer:

For a scaler variable, the Gaussian distribution has a probability density function of

p(x |µ, σ² ) = N(x; µ, σ² ) = 1 / 2π×e^{\frac{-(x-u)^{2}}{2s^{2} }  }

The term will have a maximum value at the top of the slope of the 1-D Gaussian distribution curve that is when exp(0) =1 or when x = µ

Step-by-step explanation:

Gaussian distributions have similar shape, with the mean controlling the location and the variance controls the dispersion  

From the graph of the probability distribution function it is seen that the the peak is the point at which the slope = 0, where µ = 0 and σ² = 1 then solution for the peak = exponential function = 0 or x = µ
