Given ΔADC and ΔAEB, What is AE?

Answers

Answer:

As shown in picture,

EB is perpendicular with AC

DC is perpendicular with AC

=> EB // DC

Applying Thales theorem:

BC/AC = ED/AD

=> AD = ED x AC/BC = 72 x 88/55 = 115.2

=> AE = AD - ED = 115.2 - 72 = 43.2

55 men can finish a piece of work in 42 days. How many additional men must be added to complete the work 9 days earlier.​

Step-by-step explanation:

The additional men required to complete this work 9 days earlier will be 15.

What is work time?

In time and work, we need to calculate the time required to complete a unit of work and find work done in a described period of time. Its known the amount of work done by a person varies directly with the time taken by them to complete the work on time.

Given that work was done by 55 men in 42 days

55 men ⇔ 42 days

Rate of work by 1 man ⇔ 1/(55×42)

Rate of work by 1 man ⇔ 1/(2310)

Now by adding N number of people the work need to complete 9 days earlier than 33 days.

Rate of work by 1 man ⇔ 1/[(55+N)×33]

Since the rate of work by 1 man will be the same for both cases

1/(2310) = 1/[(55+N)×33]

N = 15 hence,15 men additional required to complete the work 9 days earlier.

A) 350cm2
B) 1000cm2
C) 170cm2
D) 1200cm2

Answers

Answer:

1200 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four 10 cm by 25 cm sides; the total area of these sides is

4 (10 cm) (25 cm) = 1000 cm^2.

There are two ends; the total area of these is 2 (10 cm) (10 cm) = 200 cm^2.

Thus, the total surface area is 1000 cm^2 + 200 cm^2, or 1200 cm^2 (Answer A).

Lorie correctly determines that for the triangles below, the statement Triangle N M O is similar to triangle T S R and the statement Triangle N M O is similar to triangle T R S both describe the relationship between the two triangles. Triangle M N O. Angle M is 54.4 degrees and angle N is 71.2 degrees. Triangle R S T. Angle R is 54.4 degrees and angle T is 71.2 degrees. Which best describes why both similarity statements are correct? Each triangle has two congruent angles: Angle M is congruent to angle O and Angle R is congruent to angle S. Each triangle has two similar angles: Angle M is similar to angle O and Angle R is similar to angle S. The triangles each have two given angle measures and one unknown angle measure. All statements, regardless of the order of the vertices, define the same triangles.

Answers

Answer:

(A)Each triangle has two congruent angles: Angle M is congruent to angle O and Angle R is congruent to angle S.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Triangle MNO

[tex]\angle M = 54.4$ degrees, \angle N = 71.2$ degrees\\\angle M+\angle N+\angle O=180^\circ\\54.4^\circ+71.2^\circ+\angle O=180^\circ\\\angle O=180^\circ-(54.4^\circ+71.2^\circ)=54.4^\circ[/tex]

In Triangle RST

[tex]\angle R = 54.4$ degrees, \angle T = 71.2$ degrees\\\angle R+\angle T+\angle S=180^\circ\\54.4^\circ+71.2^\circ+\angle S=180^\circ\\\angle S=180^\circ-(54.4^\circ+71.2^\circ)=54.4^\circ[/tex]

Therefore:

Triangle NMO is congruent to triangle TSR; and

Triangle NMO is congruent to triangle TRS

This is because

[tex]\angle M \cong \angle O =54.4^\circ; and\\ \angle R \cong \angle S =54.4^\circ .[/tex]

A candy jar contains flavored jelly beans. There are 7 orange, 9 cherry, 3 lemon, 15 licorice, and 6 blueberry. Find the probability of choosing two cherry jelly beans in a row (the first jelly bean is not replaced). PLEASE HELP!!!

Answers

Answer: 0.046

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

orange jelly beans= 7

Cherry jelly beans =9

Lemon jelly beans = 3

Licorice jelly beans = 15

Blueberry jelly beans = 6

Total jelly beans = 40

The probability of choosing the first cherry jelly beans will be = 9/40

After the first one is chosen, there'll be 8 cherry jelly beans and total of 39 left. The probability of choosing the second one will be = 8/39

The probability of choosing two cherry jelly beans in a row will be:

= 9/40 × 8/39

= 72/1560

= 0.046

The graph represents the cost of a subscription to a newspaper. A coordinate plane showing Ferry Ride Cost with Number of Persons on the x-axis and Total Cost in dollars on the y-axis with a line passing through points at (1, 2) and (5, 8). What is the constant of variation for the subscription cost based on the number of weeks? $1.50 $7.50 $15.00 $30.00

Answers

Answer:

The constant of variation is $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point 1 (1,2)

Point 2 (5,8)

Required

Constant of Variation

Though the graph would have assisted in answering the question; its unavailability doesn't mean the question cannot be solved.

Having said that,

the constant variation can be solved by calculating the gradient of the graph;

The gradient is often represented by m and is calculated as thus

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Where

[tex](x_1, y_1) = (1,2)\\(x_2, y_2) = (5,8)[/tex]

By substituting values for x1,x2,y1 and y2; the gradient becomes

[tex]m = \frac{8 - 2}{5 - 1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{6}{4}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m = 1.50[/tex]

Hence, the constant of variation is $1.50

how do I solve this?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Use law of cosine:

c² = a² + b² − 2ab cos C

c² = (√3 − 1)² + (√3 + 1)² − 2(√3 − 1)(√3 + 1) cos 60°

c² = 3 − 2√3 + 1 + 3 + 2√3 + 1 − 2(3 − 1) (½)

c² = 6

c = √6

(ii) Use law of sines:

a / sin A = c / sin C

(√3 − 1) / sin A = √6 / (½√3)

(√3 − 1) / sin A = 2√2

½ (√3 − 1) = √2 sin A

½ (√6 − √2) = 2 sin A

¼ (√6 − √2) = sin A

Use a calculator:

A = 15°

(iii) Use SAS area:

A = ½ ab sin C

A = ½ (√3 − 1) (√3 + 1) sin 60°

A = ½ (3 − 1) (½√3)

A = ½√3

Glen Davis is shooting free throws. Making or missing free throws doesn't change the probability that he will make his next one, and he makes his free throws 74%

Answers

Answer:

0.00456

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Percentage of free throws = 74%

Required:  What is the probability of Glen Davis making none of his next 4 free throw attempts?

Since, there is a free throw 74% of the time, thus, the time he misses = 26% of the time.

To miss four in a row, it is requires to miss the first throw, the second throw, the third throw and also the fourth throw.

Thus, the probabilities of Gien missing will be multiplied.

By using the probability formula -

P ( MMMM) = 26/100 × 26/100 × 26/100 × 26/100

                   = 456976/ 100000000

                   = 0.00456

Therefore, the probability that he will have next 4 free attempts is 0.00456.

Simplify to create an equivalent expression (2j+1)9-7j

Answers

Answer:

Simplifying

(2j + 1) * 9 + -7j = 0

Reorder the terms:

(1 + 2j) * 9 + -7j = 0

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

9(1 + 2j) + -7j = 0

(1 * 9 + 2j * 9) + -7j = 0

(9 + 18j) + -7j = 0

Combine like terms: 18j + -7j = 11j

9 + 11j = 0

Solving

9 + 11j = 0

Solving for variable 'j'.

Move all terms containing j to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-9' to each side of the equation.

9 + -9 + 11j = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 9 + -9 = 0

0 + 11j = 0 + -9

11j = 0 + -9

Combine like terms: 0 + -9 = -9

11j = -9

Divide each side by '11'.

j = -0.8181818182

Simplifying

j = -0.8181818182

Answer:

x = 12 in ; Type in 12 in the box

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to apply triangle formula ; 1/2 * base * height, we would see that length of height ⇒ 10 inches, and length of base ⇒ x inches,

Given an Area of 60 square inches let us substitute into the formula 1/2 * base * height and solve for x;

Area of Triangle = 1/2 * base * height,

60 in^2 = 1/2 * x in * 10 in ⇒ take 1/2 * 10,

60 in^2 = 5 in * x in ⇒ divide either side by 5 in,

12 in = x in ⇒ divide either side by inches,

x = 12 inches,

Volume of bird house = volume of a cuboid + volume of a triangular prism

Volume of a cuboid = length × breadth × height

Volume of triangular prism = ½ base ×height ×length

The number of students who jog and have one sibling who jogs is 416.

The total number of students who have one sibling who jogs is 1823 + 416 = 2239.

So the probability that a student jogs if they have one sibling who jogs is 416/2239 = 0.186.

The number of students who jog and have two siblings who jog is 400.

The total number of students who have two siblings who jog is 1380 + 400 = 1780.

So the probability that a student jogs if they have two siblings who jog is 400/1780 = 0.225.

Therefore, a student is more likely to jog if they have two siblings who jog than one sibling who jogs.
