Please help me find the value of x in the triangle in the link!

Answers

This triangle is an isosceles triangle (as indicated by the tick marks through the two sides). The base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent; this means the measure of angle x is congruent to the measure of the unlabeled interior angle.

The sum of the interior angles of all triangles is 180 degrees; you can find x by setting the sum of the two unknown angles, x, and 98 equal to 180 and solving algebraically.

180 = 98 + x + x
180 = 98 + 2x

Kristin decides to spend at most $50 for a birthday dinner at a restaurant, including a 15% tip.,

Write an inequality in one variable to represent this situation.

What is the most that her meal can cost before a tip?

Answers

0.15x + x <(or equal to) 50
Where x is the meal's cost (no tip included)

50 - 15% = 42.5.
x >(or equal to) 42.50.

(nothing is copied content, I copy pasted a number into the right position, feel free to check it mods)
Final answer:

The representation of this situation as an inequality is 1.15x ≤ 50. To find the maximum possible cost of Kristin's meal before the tip, the inequality is solved for x, which results in the value of $43.48.

Explanation:

In this scenario, the cost of Kristin's meal before the tip can be represented by the variable x. The tip is 15% of the cost of the meal, which can be represented as 0.15x. The total cost of the meal, including the tip, is therefore x + 0.15x, which is 1.15x. Given that the total cost cannot exceed $50, we can write the following inequality to represent this situation: 1.15x ≤ 50.

To find the most that her meal can cost before a tip, we need to solve this inequality for x. So, we divide both sides by 1.15: x ≤ 50/1.15. After calculation, we find that x (the cost of the meal before the tip) must be ≤ about $43.48.

Which function has an inverse that is also a function?

Answers

The inverse of a function will also be a function if it is a One-to-One function. This means, if each y value is paired with exactly one x value then the inverse of a function will also be a function.

Option C gives us such a function, all x values are different and all y values are different. So inverse of function given in option C will result in a relation which will also be a function.

In all other options, y values are being repeated, which means they are not one to one functions.

So, the answer to this question is option C

Option C has an inverse that is also a function

{ ( -1 , 3 ) , ( 0,4 ), ( 1 , 14 ) , ( 5, 6 ) , ( 7, 2 )}

Further explanation

Function is a relation which each member of the domain is mapped onto exactly one member of the codomain.

There are many types of functions in mathematics such as :

Linear Function → f(x) = ax + bQuadratic Function → f(x) = ax² + bx + cTrigonometric Function → f(x) = sin x or f(x) = cos x or f(x) = tan xLogarithmic function → f(x) = ln xPolynomial function → f(x) = axⁿ + bxⁿ⁻¹ + ...

If function f : x → y , then inverse function f⁻¹ : y → x

Let us now tackle the problem!

According to the definition above, it can be concluded that a function cannot have the same x value.

Of the four tables available in choices, table option C has an inverse that is also a function. This is because x values and y values are all different.

Given: KLMN is a parallelogram m∠K : m∠KLM=1:3 LF ⊥ KN , LD ⊥ NM Find: m∠FLD

Answers

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal and since it is a quadrilateral, the angles add up to 360°

<NKL = <LMN =  X
<KLM = <KNM = 3X
So, 2(x+3x) = 360°
      80x = 360°
       x = 45°
The figure LFND is another quadrilateral where: 
<LFN = <NDL =90°
<FND = 3x

So, (90×2)+3x+ (angle FLD) = 360°
      Angle FLD = 360° - 180° - (3×45)°
                        = 360° - 315°
                        = 45°


The measure of the angle m∠FLD is 45 degrees.

During boot camp, the drill sergeant measured the weight of the men in his unit. he found the average weight of the men to be 142 pounds and the standard deviation 14 pounds. the data is normally distributed. find the interval in which 68% of the data lies. what is the probability that a man picked at random from the unit will weigh more than 170 pounds? that he will weigh less than 128 pounds?

Answers

To solve the question we proceed as follows:
mean=142
standard deviation=14
a] Find the interval in which 68% of the data lies:
P(x<X)=68%=0.68
the z-score associated with this probability is:
P(z<Z)=0.47
but :
z=(x-mu)/sig
thus;
0.47=(x-142)/14
solving for x we get:
x=148.58
thus 68 percent of the data lie below 148.58

b]what is the probability that a man picked at random from the unit will weigh more than 170 pounds?
x=170
thus
P(x>170) will be:
z=(170-142)/14
z=2
Thus
P(x>170)=1-P(z<2)
=1-0.9772
=0.0228

c] that he will weigh less than 128 pounds?
P(x<128)
z=(128-142)/14
z=(-14/14)=-1
Thus
P(z<-1)=0.1587
Final answer:

To find the interval of 68% of the data, use the empirical rule. The probability a man weighs more than 170 lbs or less than 128 lbs can be found using the normal distribution curve.

Explanation:

To find the interval in which 68% of the data lies, we can use the concept of the empirical rule. According to the empirical rule, approximately 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation of the mean.

Since the standard deviation is 14 pounds and the mean is 142 pounds, one standard deviation above the mean is 142 + 14 = 156 pounds, and one standard deviation below the mean is 142 - 14 = 128 pounds.

Therefore, the interval in which 68% of the data lies is from 128 pounds to 156 pounds.

The probability that a man picked at random from the unit will weigh more than 170 pounds can be found by calculating the area under the normal distribution curve to the right of 170 pounds.

The probability that a man picked at random from the unit will weigh less than 128 pounds can be found by calculating the area under the normal distribution curve to the left of 128 pounds.

Answers

a)

The robot made the turn at the point (-20, 15).

b)

The equation of the second line on which the robot traveled is:

y = (4/3)x + 35.

c)

The distance between the starting position and the final position is 20.51 feet.

d)

The equation of the line the robot needs to travel along in order to return and recharge is y = (-3/4)x + 5.

What is an equation of a line?

The equation of a line is given by:

y = mx + c

where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept.

Example:

The slope of the line y = 2x + 3 is 2.

The slope of a line that passes through (1, 2) and (2, 3) is 1.

We have,

a.

To find the coordinates of the point at which the robot made the turn, we need to determine its position after traveling for 60 seconds along the initial northeast path.

The distance the robot covers in 60 seconds is:

distance

= speed x time

= (1/2) x 60 = 30 feet

The initial path has a slope of -3/4 (since it passes through (4, -3) and

(0, 5)), so the robot's new path after turning right will have a slope of the negative reciprocal of -3/4, which is 4/3.

We know that the robot traveled 30 feet along the initial path, so we can use the slope and distance traveled to find the endpoint of the initial path:

y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

-3 = (-3/4)(4) + b

b = 0

So the equation of the initial path is y = (-3/4)x.

The endpoint of the initial path is (-20, 15) (since the initial path passes through (0, 5) and (-20, 15)).

The robot made the turn at the point (-20, 15).

b.

Since the robot turned right, its new path will be perpendicular to the initial path.

We know the robot's position after turning (i.e., the endpoint of the initial path), so we can use this point and the slope of the new path to find the equation of the new path.

The slope of the new path is 4/3, so the equation of the new path is:

y - 15 = (4/3)(x + 20)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

y = (4/3)x + 35

The equation of the second line on which the robot traveled is:

y = (4/3)x + 35.

c.

From the last equation in part (b), we have:

9(y - 5)² = 29 - 16x² - 12x

Taking the square root of both sides and solving for y, we get:

y = 5 ± √((29 - 16x^2 - 12x)/9)

Since the robot is traveling along the new path for 80 seconds, we want to find y when t = 80.

Substituting t = 80 into the equation for y and simplifying, we get:

y = 5 + √(17/9)

So the robot's final position is approximately (20.50, 6.63).

The distance between the starting position and the final position is:

distance

= √((20.50 - 0)² + (6.63 - 5)²)

= √(421.17)

= 20.51 feet.

d.

The robot needs to travel along a path that is perpendicular to the second line on which it traveled in order to return to its starting position.

The slope of the second line is 4/3, so the slope of the path back to the starting position is -3/4 (the negative reciprocal of 4/3).

We know the robot's final position and the slope of the desired path, so we can use the point-slope form to find the equation of the path:

y - 5 = (-3/4)(x - 0)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

y = (-3/4)x + 5

So the equation of the line the robot needs to travel along in order to return and recharge is y = (-3/4)x + 5.

Setting the two equations equal to each other and solving for x, we get:

(4/3)x + 35 = (-3/4)x + 5

Multiplying both sides by 12 to eliminate fractions, we get:

16x + 420 = -9x + 60

Solving for x, we get:

x = -16.8

Substituting this value of x into either equation, we get:

y = (4/3)(-16.8) + 35

y = 13.60

So the intersection point is approximately (-16.8, 13.60).

To find how long it will take the robot to get there, we can use the distance formula between the robot's final position and the intersection point:

distance = √((-16.8 - 20.50)² + (13.60 - 6.63)²) ≈ 40.49 feet.

Since the robot travels at a constant speed of 1/2 foot per second, it will take approximately 80.98 seconds (rounded to two decimal places) for the robot to return and recharge.

Thus,

The robot made the turn at the point (-20, 15).

The equation of the second line on which the robot traveled is:

y = (4/3)x + 35.

The distance between the starting position and the final position is 20.51 feet.

The equation of the line the robot needs to travel along in order to return and recharge is y = (-3/4)x + 5.

On a 10 item test, three students in prof. miller's advanced chemistry seminar received scores of two, five, and eight, respectively. for this distribution of test scores, standard deviation is equal to the square root of

Answers

Your set is 2, 5 and 8.

In order to calculate the standard deviation, first, you need to calculate the mean of the scores:
m = (2 + 5 + 8) / 3
    = 15 / 3
    = 5

Then, find the variance: subtract the mean from each value, square the results, sum them up and divide it by the number of scores.
(2 - 5)² = 9
(5 - 5)² = 0
(8 - 5)² = 9
Therefore:
v = (9 + 0 + 9) / 3 
   = 18 / 3
   = 6

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance:
σ = √6 
   = 2.45

In conclusion, the standard deviation can be calculated by the formula:
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{\sum(v - m)^{2} }{n} } [/tex]

The standard deviation for the given test scores can be calculated by finding the mean, computing the squared differences from the mean, averaging those squared differences to get the variance, and then taking the square root of that variance. The standard deviation for the scores is approximately 2.449.

The student is likely seeking assistance with the concept of standard deviation, which is a measure of dispersion or distribution around the mean in a set of data. The question at hand requires calculating the standard deviation for a small dataset consisting of three scores from a chemistry seminar. To find the standard deviation, one would first need to calculate the mean of the test scores, then find the variance by averaging the squared differences between each score and the mean, and finally, take the square root of the variance.

Step-by-step Calculation:

Calculate the mean (average) of the scores: (2 + 5 + 8) / 3 = 15 / 3 = 5.Find the squared differences from the mean: (2 - 5)² + (5 - 5)² + (8 - 5)² = 3² + 0² + 3² = 9 + 0 + 9.Calculate the variance: (9 + 0 + 9) / 3 = 18 / 3 = 6.The standard deviation is the square root of the variance: √(6) = 2.449

The standard deviation of the test scores in Prof. Miller's advanced chemistry seminar is approximately 2.449.

Two consecutive positive odd integers have a product of 63. what is the smaller number

Answers

Answer: 7

Through trial and error, you can find that 7*9 = 63 so we see that 7 is the smaller number. Or you can factor 63. 

-----------------------------------

The way your teacher probably wants you to do it is through algebra
x = smaller number
x+2 = next highest number

x*(x+2) = 63
x^2+2x = 63
x^2+2x-63 = 0

At this point, we can use the quadratic formula or factor. Factoring may be easier
x^2+2x-63 = 0
(x+9)(x-7) = 0
x+9=0 or x-7 = 0
x = -9 or x = 7

Toss out x = -9 because the instructions state that the integers must be positive.

The only valid answer is x = 7.
If x = 7, then x+2 = 7+2 = 9

So,
x*(x+2) = 63
7*9 = 63
where 7 is the smaller factor.

Anja collected data about the number of dogs 9th-grade students own. She created this histogram to represent the data and determined that it is skewed right. Which statement is true about Anja’s claim?

Answers

D) She is correct; the histogram is skewed to the right because there is less data on the right side.

Look at the cylinder below. which of these could not be a cross section of the cylinder? a circle b square c triangle d rectangle

Answers

The correct answer would be a triangle.

If you sliced horizontally across a cylinder standing up, you would have a circle.

If you sliced vertically down a cylinder standing up, you could have either a rectangle or a square.

You would never have a triangle. 

Final answer:

A square cannot be a cross section of a traditional circular cylinder when sliced perpendicular to its height. However, circles, rectangles, and triangles can be cross sections depending on the shape of the cylinder and the slicing.

Explanation:

When considering the cross sections of a cylinder, it is important to remember that the cross-sectional shape remains consistent along the height of the cylinder. A cross section made perpendicular to the height of a traditional circular cylinder is always a circle. Therefore, the correct answer to which shape could not be a cross section of a cylinder is a square, option b. Circles, rectangles, and triangles can all be cross sections of a cylinder depending on the shapes of the top and bottom faces of the cylinder and how the cross section is sliced.

If the cylinder is a right circular cylinder, the only possible perpendicular cross-sectional shape is a circle. A square cross section can occur in a cylinder if the top and bottom faces are square and the cylinder is not circular. Similarly, a rectangular cross section can occur if the cylinder has a rectangular type of cross-section to start with. However, for a circular cylinder, a triangle cannot be a cross section because slicing it will always yield a circular shape due to the round nature of its base.

Twenty different statistics students are randomly selected. for each of​ them, their body temperature ​( degrees °​c) is measured and their head circumference​ (cm) is measured. if it is found that r=​0, does that indicate that there is no association between these two​ variables?

Answers

Yes, it does.

An r-value, or correlation coefficient, goes from -1 to positive 1.  -1 indicates a perfect decreasing match and 1 indicates a perfect increasing match.  0 indicates no relationship between the variables.

A tree is 100 feet tall casts a shadow that is 150 feet long . Determine the angle at which the rays of of tge sun hit the ground , to tye nearest degree

Answers

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the following information given in the problem above:

 - The tree is 100 feet tall.
 - The tree casts a shadow that is 150 feet long.

 2. Therefore, you have:

 Tan^-1(α)=opposite/adjacent

 Where:
 - α is the angle.
 - opposite=100 feet.
 -adjacent=150 feet.

 2. When you substitute these values, you obtain:

 Tan^-1(α)=100/150
 α=34º

 The answer is: 34º
