Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles XVW and XYZ are congruent, and so are angles VWX and XZY by the alternate interior angles theorem.

This means that triangle VWX is similar to triangle YZX.

So, since corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional, VW/XY = WX / XZ.

120/8 = 15 = WX / 6.

So the width is 90 m.

Find the unknown angle measurement

Answers

Answer:

65

Step-by-step explanation:

115 + x = 180

x = 180 - 115

x = 65

Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

A right-angle equals 90°. Two right angles would be a line like shown in the picture.

So, 90 + 90 = 180.

Since we know the whole amount of the 2 angles combined is 180, all we have to do is subtract 115 from 180 to find the missing value.

180 - 115 = 65

Therefore, 65° equals x.

What is the MAD of these numbers: 52, 65, 63, 48, 52, 53, 60

Answers

Answer: About 5.59

Step-by-step explanation:

        The mean absolute deviation (MAD) is where you subtract the mean from each value, find the absolute value of that value, and then find the average of those values.

        Here is what it looks like.

[Step 1]

        Find the average.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{52+65+63+48+52+53+60}{7} =\frac{393}{7}=56.14[/tex]

[Step 2]

       Find the absolute value of each data from the mean.

|52 - 56.14| = 4.14

|65 - 56.14| = 8.86

|63 -  56.14| = 6.86

|48 -  56.14| = 8.14

|52 -  56.14| = 4.14

|53 -  56.14| = 3.14

|60 -  56.14| = 3.86

[Step 3]

      Find the average of these values.

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{4.14 + 8.86 + 6.86+8.14+4.14+3.14+3.86}{7} =\frac{39.14}{7}=5.59[/tex]

(b) What is the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample mean?

(c) What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean?

Answers

The shape is not normal since the sample size (6) is less than 30.

The mean and standard deviation of the sample distribution is 39, and 0.82 repectively

What is a normal distribution?

The normal distribution is a distribution that is symmetric about the mean and has a bell shaped curve.

Given that

n = 6, mean = 39 and standard deviation o = 2.

Hence:

The shape is not normal since the sample size (6) is less than 30.

The mean of the sample distribution = 39, the standard deviation of the sample distribution = 2/√6 = 0.82

Figure II is a trapzium.

a and b  are the parallel sides. a = 21 m

Answer:

146 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulae

Area of a rectangle = width x length

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Divide the figure into 2 rectangles and a triangle (see attachment).

Area of Rectangle 1 = 4 x 5 = 20 m²

Area of Rectangle 2 = (3 + 4) x (20 - 5) = 105 m²

Area of triangle 3 = 1/2 x (21 + 5 - 20) x (3 + 4) = 21 m²

the snake slithered 2.25 m before resting on a rock. Then the snake slithered twice as far as it did before, to catch a rat. When the snake headed home he slithered another 90 cm. What was the total distance the snake slithered?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2.25m + 2(2.25m) + 90 cm =

2.25m + 4.50m + 90 cm

6.75m + 90 cm

1 cm = 0.01m...so 90 cm = 90 * 0.01 = 0.9m

6.75m + 0.9m = 7.65m <===

2.25m + 2(2.25m) + 90 cm =

2.25m + 4.50m + 90 cm

6.75m + 90 cm

1 cm = 0.01m...so 90 cm = 90 * 0.01 = 0.9m

6.75m + 0.9m = 7.65m

OR../=-

1m = 100 cm....so 7.65m = 7.65 * 100 = 765 cm

Estimate

using benchmark values. Your equation must show the estimate for each fraction and for the solution.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I never learned this (for good reasons, I say). for me this is the strangest thing in math. math is precise. we are not guessing around when we can actually calculate things.

this is definitely ok, when just trying to decide, if one fraction is larger than the other, but to use that for an actual operation among fractions, is the biggest nonsense I have ever seen in math lessons (and not simpler than doing the precise calculation). again, math is a precise thing. the only valid level of imprecise answers is rounding, but only for the end result, not for intermediate results, because the rounding errors are rarely compensating for each other, they mostly pile up making the end result even less precise.

enough with the venting ...

benchmark fractions are the simple fractions (and their multiples)

1 (=1/1), 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6

and then in steps of 2 :

1/8, 1/10, 1/12, ...

we try to find the closest simple fractions to our actual fractions and use them to estimate the actual result.

the simplest (but also normally the least precise) benchmark approach is using 1/2 as benchmark unit and 0, 1/2, 1 as benchmarks.

so, is 10/12 closest to 0, to 1/2 or to 1 ?

we know that 0 in 12ths would be 0/12, 1/2 would be 6/12, and 1 would be 12/12.

so, out of these 3 values 10/12 is closest to 12/12 (=1), so that is what you are choosing as representation.

is 3/8 closest to 0, 1/2 or to 1 ?

we would have 0/8, 4/8, 8/8.

and 3/8 is closest to 4/8 (= 1/2), and that is what we are choosing here as representation.

and the estimated result of 10/12 - 3/8 = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2 or 4/8 or 6/12.

let's pick 1/4 as benchmark unit.

so, are the numbers closest to

0, 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 or 1 (4/4) ?

for 10/12 we get then

0/12, 3/12, 6/12, 9/12, 12/12

and 10/12 is closest to 9/12 (3/4), which we pick as representation.

for 3/8 we get

0/8, 2/8, 4/8, 6/8, 8/8

if equidistant, we have to round up, so, we get 4/8 (2/4), which we pick as representation.

and the estimated calculation is

10/12 - 3/8 = 3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4

which is really horrible ...

2 and 4 are factors of 12 and 8. all smaller benchmark fractions (<1/4; so, e.g. 1/5, 1/6, 1/8. ...) are not meeting that criteria, making the benchmark finding much harder. so, I would not try that.

the real result is

the LCM of 12 and 8 is 24 (2×12 and 3×8).

so, we have

20/24 - 9/24 = 11/24 (almost 1/2).

so, actually, the benchmark unit of 1/2 is giving the best result here.

but to just do the exercise of benchmark units that are not factors of both denominators, let's pick 1/6

so, are the numbers closest to

0, 1/6, 2/6, 3/6, 4/6, 5/6 or 1 (6/6) ?

for 10/12 we get (all nicely)

0/12, 2/12, 4/12, 6/12, 8/12, 10/12, 12/12

so, 10/12 is closest to 10/12 (of course) = 5/6, which we pick as representation.

for 3/8 we get (ugh, we have to go for 24ths here too as 4×6 and 3×8)

0/24, 4/24, 8/24, 12/24, 16/24, 20/24. 24/24

3/8 = 9/24

so, the closest number to 9/24 is 8/24 (= 2/6), which we pick as representation.

and the estimated calculation is

10/12 - 3/8 = 5/6 - 2/6 = 3/6 = 1/2

did I say already that I don't like this ? that I don't see the advantage to the actual calculation ?

so, just in case : I don't like this (ugh) !

SAT math scores for a particular year are normally distributed with a mean of 510 and a standard deviation of 80.

What is the probability that a randomly selected score is greater than 590? Enter the numerical answer only (no percent sign).

Answers

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 16% probability that a randomly selected score is greater than 590.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are, respectively, given by [tex]\mu = 510[/tex] and [tex]\sigma = 80[/tex].

The probability that a randomly selected score is greater than 590 is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 590, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{590 - 510}{80}[/tex]

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a p-value of 0.84.

1 - 0.84 = 0.16.

0.16 = 16% probability that a randomly selected score is greater than 590.
