Step-by-step explanation:
∠YVZ = 180 - 52 - 43 - 38 (Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees so if we try to find an unknown angle on the straight line, we need too subtract all the other angles from 180 degrees)
=> ∠YUZ = 47 degrees
Step-by-step explanation: In the figure shown, <UVW is a straight angle.
This means it measures 180 degrees.
So to find <YVZ, we add up all the angles and subtract the sum
from 180 to get the answer to this problem.
43 + 52 + 38 gives us a sum of 133.
Now we take 180 - 133 yo get 47.
So m<YVZ is 47 degrees.

6x – 3y = 3 –2x + 6y = 14 What is the solution to the system
Answer:
No solutionStep-by-step explanation:
6x – 3y = 3
–2x + 6y = 14
lets solve by substitution:
1) lets isolate y:
6x–3y=3
-3y=-6x+3
y=(-6x+3)/-3
y=2x-1
2) plug in 2x-1 for y in order to find x:
6x-3(2x-1)=3
6x-6x+3=3
3=3
since x cancels out, it means that there is no solution to this linear system of equations

A first number plus twice a second number is 14. Twice the first number plus the second totals 10. Find the numbers.
Answer:
first number(x) = 2 second number(y)= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an example of a simultaneous equation.
First write this word problem as equations, where x is the "first number" that you've mentioned and y is the "second number".
x + 2y = 14 (equation 1)
2x + y = 10 (equation 2)
This is solved using the elimination method.
We need to make one of the coefficients the same - in this case we can make y the same. In order to do this we need to multiply equation 2 by 2, so that y becomes 2y.
2x + y = 10 MULTIPLY BY 2
4x + 2y = 20 (this is now our new equation 2 with the same y coefficient)
Now subtract equation 1 from equation 2.
4x - x + 2y - 2y = 20 - 14 (2y cancels out here)
3x = 6
x = 2
Now we substitute our x value into equation 1 to find the value of y.
2 + 2y = 14
2y = 12
y = 6
Hope this has answered your question.
Answer:
6 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number =a
Let the second number =b
A first number plus twice a second number is 14.
a+2b=14Twice the first number plus the second totals 10.
2a+b=10We solve the two equations simultaneously
[tex]a+2b=14 \implies a=14-2b\\$Substitute into the second equation$\\2(14-2b)+b=10\\28-4b+b=10\\-3b=10-28\\-3b=-18\\b=6[/tex]
Recall:
a=14-2b
=14-2(6)
=14-12
a=2
The two numbers are 6 and 2.
If mBC in circle Ais 60°, what is mZ BDC?
a. 60 degrees
b. 45 degrees
c. 30 degrees
d. 25 degrees
Answer:
Option (C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Measure of the arc BC of a circle A = 60°
Since, measure of an arc is equal to the measure of the central angle that intercepts the arc.
Therefore, m∠A = 60°
Since, measure of the inscribed angle is half of the central angle subtended by the same arc.
Therefore, m∠A = [tex]2\times m(\angle {BDC})[/tex]
60° = 2 × m(∠BDC)
m∠BDC = 30°
Therefore, Option (C) will be the answer.
Answer:
It’s C
Step-by-step explanation:
Derek is building a deck. The sum of the interior angles is 10800 and each interior angle is 1350. How many sides does his deck have
sum of angles = 10800
measurement of a single angle= 1350
Therefore,
No. of sides = sum of angles / single angle
No of sides = 10800 / 1350
No of sides = 8
Answer:
8 sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the sum of the angles is 10,800 degrees, and each angle is 1,350 degrees, the deck will have the number of sides of the sum of the angle measurements divided by each angle's measurements.
10,800 / 1,350 = 1,080 / 135 = 8 sides.

The lengths, in order, of four consecutive sides of an equiangular hexagon are 1, 7, 2 and 4 units, respectively. What is the sum of the lengths of the two remaining sides?
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Extend every other side of the hexagon so that a triangle is formed. Since the hexagon is equiangular, the overall triangle is an equilateral triangle, as well as the smaller triangles in the corners.
The length of the sides of the overall triangle is 7 + 2 + 4 = 13.
Therefore, the other two sides of the hexagon are 5 and 4.
The sum is 5 + 4 = 9.

A pretzel company calculated that there is a mean of 75.4 broken pretzels in each production run with a standard deviation of 5.2. If the distribution is approximately normal, find the probability that there will be fewer than 66 broken pretzels in a run.
Answer:
P [ Z < 66 ] = 35,15 %
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Distribution
Population mean μ₀ = 75,4
Standard deviation σ = 5,2
Then:
P [ Z < 66 ] = ( 66 - 75,4 ) / 5,2
P [ Z < 66 ] = - 9,4 / 5,2
P [ Z < 66 ] = - 1,81
In z-table we look for the reciprocate area for that z score and find
P [ Z < 66 ] = 0,3515
P [ Z < 66 ] = 35,15 %

In graphing a trigonometric function, how does one establish which are the EXTREMUM coordinates and which are the MIDLINE INTERCEPTION coordinates. I can find the x values and the y values but do not know which X goes with which Y and the graphs end up incorrect! It is EXTREMELY frustrating. How do I discern which is which!!!!! Thank You.
Answer:
If I getting the question correctly, your doubt is the order of the values you get after doing the math. I mean, you can do the calculations, but in the end, you don't form the coordinate pairs correctly, that's why I understand from your question. So, here is what you need to do.
One way to graph is by using the definitions of those kinds of functions. For example, let's say we want to find the points to draw the function: [tex]y=sin(x)[/tex]
Remember that trigonometric functions have a specific period, that means, their drawing repeats over and over again after a certain number. That period is [tex]2 \pi[/tex], that means this number represents a cycle.
So, the main thing you need to do is to pick a starting point to then, draw the curve according to the [tex]2 \pi[/tex] period.
Now, we know that sine functions intercept the origin of the coordinate system, as you can observe in the image attached, there you can see that from the origin you draw those waves making sure you intercept the x-axis at every [tex]\pi[/tex] number. In the end, you will have a sine function.
On the other hand, if you want to have a chart with all x-values and y-values. First, you need to set x-values: -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Then, you need to find each y-values for each of them.
Now, you have to draw a chart value, to keep in other the coordinate pairs, that way, you'll have the correct pairs at the end.
For example, for [tex]x=-5[/tex], we get [tex]y=-0.09[/tex], that means in the chart value, you are gonna form the pair [tex](-5, -0.09)[/tex], and now you have your first point of the drawing. Then, you keep repeating the process until you complete all the chart values.
As you can imagine, you're going to get really small decimal numbers, that's why I explained to you the first method, it's faster and easier.
1. The following are the number of hours that 10 police officers have spent being trained in how to handle encounters with people who are mentally ill:
4 17 12 9 6 10 1 5 9 3
Calculate the (a) range, (b) inter-quartile range, (c) variance, and (d) standard deviation.
(Use N)
Answer:
[tex]Range = 16[/tex]
[tex]Inter\ Quartile\ Range = 6.75[/tex]
[tex]Variance = 20.44[/tex]
[tex]Standard\ Deviation = 4.52[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4, 17, 12, 9, 6, 10, 1, 5, 9, 3
Calculating the range;
[tex]Range = Highest - Lowest[/tex]
From the given data;
Highest = 17 and Lowest = 1
Hence;
[tex]Range = 17 - 1[/tex]
[tex]Range = 16[/tex]
Calculating the Inter-quartile Range
Inter quartile range (IQR) is calculates as thus
[tex]IQR = Q_3 - Q_1[/tex]
Where
Q3 = Upper Quartile and Q1 = Lower Quartile
Start by arranging the data in ascending order
1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 9, 10, 12, 17
N = Number of data; N = 10
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Calculating Q3
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(N+1) th\ item[/tex]
Substitute 10 for N
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(10+1) th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(11) th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{33}{4} th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 8.25 th\ item[/tex]
Express 8.25 as 8 + 0.25
[tex]Q_3 = (8 + 0.25) th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 8th\ item + 0.25 th\ item[/tex]
Express 0.25 as fraction
[tex]Q_3 = 8th\ item +\frac{1}{4} th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 8th\ item +\frac{1}{4} (9th\ item - 8th\ item)[/tex]
From the arranged data;
[tex]8th\ item = 10[/tex] and [tex]9th\ item = 12[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 8th\ item +\frac{1}{4} (9th\ item - 8th\ item)[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 10 +\frac{1}{4} (12 - 10)[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 10 +\frac{1}{4} (2)[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 10 +0.5[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 10.5[/tex]
Calculating Q1
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(N+1) th\ item[/tex]
Substitute 10 for N
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(10+1) th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}(11) th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{11}{4} th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 2.75 th\ item[/tex]
Express 2.75 as 2 + 0.75
[tex]Q_1 = (2 + 0.75) th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 2nd\ item + 0.75 th\ item[/tex]
Express 0.75 as fraction
[tex]Q_1 = 2nd\ item +\frac{3}{4} th\ item[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 2nd\ item +\frac{3}{4} (3rd\ item - 2nd\ item)[/tex]
From the arranged data;
[tex]2nd\ item = 3[/tex] and [tex]3rd\ item = 4[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 3 +\frac{3}{4} (4 - 3)[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 3 +\frac{3}{4} (1)[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 3 +0.75[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 3 .75[/tex]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recall that
[tex]IQR = Q_3 - Q_1[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 10.5 - 3.75[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 6.75[/tex]
Calculating Variance
Start by calculating the mean
[tex]Mean = \frac{1+3+4+5+6+9+9+10+12+17}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Mean = \frac{76}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Mean = 7.6[/tex]
Subtract the mean from each data, then square the result
[tex](1 - 7.6)^2 = (-6.6)^2 = 43.56[/tex]
[tex](3 - 7.6)^2 = (-4.6)^2 = 21.16[/tex]
[tex](4 - 7.6)^2 = (-3.6)^2 = 12.96[/tex]
[tex](5 - 7.6)^2 = (-2.6)^2 = 6.76[/tex]
[tex](6 - 7.6)^2 = (-1.6)^2 = 2.56[/tex]
[tex](9 - 7.6)^2 = (1.4)^2 = 1.96[/tex]
[tex](9 - 7.6)^2 = (1.4)^2 = 1.96[/tex]
[tex](10 - 7.6)^2 = (2.4)^2 = 5.76[/tex]
[tex](12 - 7.6)^2 = (4.4)^2 = 19.36[/tex]
[tex](17 - 7.6)^2 = (9.4)^2 = 88.36[/tex]
Sum the result
[tex]43.56 + 21.16 + 12.96 + 6.76 + 2.56 + 1.96 + 1.96 + 5.76 + 19.36 + 88.36 = 204.4[/tex]
Divide by number of observation;
[tex]Variance = \frac{204.4}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Variance = 20.44[/tex]
Calculating Standard Deviation (SD)
[tex]SD = \sqrt{Variance}[/tex]
[tex]SD = \sqrt{20.44}[/tex]
[tex]SD = 4.52[/tex] (Approximated)

URGENT It is given that a regular n-sided polygon has 5 sides more than a
regular m-sided polygon. If the sum of interior angles of the regular
n-sided polygon is twice that of the latter, find the values of m and n.
Answer:
m = 7; n = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
"a regular n-sided polygon has 5 sides more than a
regular m-sided polygon"
n = m + 5
The sum of the measures of the interior angles is
180(n - 2) for the n-sided polygon and
180(m 2) for the m-sided polygon.
"If the sum of interior angles of the regular
n-sided polygon is twice that of the latter"
180(n - 2) = 2(180)(m - 2)
We have a system of equations with 2 equations.
n = m + 5
180(n - 2) = 2(180)(m - 2)
Simplify the second equation:
n - 2 = 2m - 4
n + 2 = 2m
Substitute m + 5 for n.
m + 5 + 2 = 2m
7 = m
m = 7
n = m + 5 = 7 + 5 = 12
Answer: m = 7; n = 12

5(x + 3) – 12 = 43 solve
Answer:
[tex]x=8[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this equation by isolating the variable x.
First let’s apply the distributive property:
[tex]5(x+3)-12=43\\5\cdot x + 5\cdot3 - 12=43\\5x + 15 - 12 = 43[/tex]
Combine like terms:
[tex]5x + 3 = 43[/tex]
Now we can subtract 3 from both sides:
[tex]5x + 3 - 3 = 43-3\\5x = 40[/tex]
Divide both sides by 5:
[tex]5x\div5 = 40\div5\\x = 8[/tex]
So [tex]x=8[/tex].
Hope this helped!
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x + 3) – 12 = 43
Add 12 to each side
5(x + 3) – 12+12 = 43+12
5(x+3) =45
Divide each side by 5
5(x+3)/5 = 55/5
x+3 = 11
Subtract 3 from each side
x+3-3 = 11-3
x = 8
A weatherman stated that the average temperature during July in Chattanooga is 80 degrees or less. A sample of 32 Julys is taken. The correct set of hypotheses is:________. a. H0: μ ≠ 80 Ha: μ = 80b. H0: μ 80 Ha: μ > 80c. H0: μ < 80 Ha: μ > 80d. H0: μ 80 Ha: μ < 80
Answer:
u <= 80
u > 80
Step-by-step explanation:
The happiest would be
Null hypothesis: u <= 80
Alternative hypothesis: u > 80
The correct set of hypotheses for the sample in July is H0: μ ≠ 80 Ha: μ = 80.
What is the null and alternative hypothesis?The null hypothesis H0 which is also known as the default hypothesis states that there is no relationship between the population parameters. The alternative hypothesis (H1 ) states that there is a relationship between the population parameters.

Answer:
2.94 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ball will hit the ground when the height of the ball is 0 meters.
The equation is...
h = 61 - 6t - 5t^2.
-5t^2 - 6t + 61 = 0
5t^2 + 6t - 61 = 0
We can use the quadratic formula to solve.
[please ignore the A-hat; that is a bug]
[tex]\frac{-b ± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}[/tex], where a = 5, b = 6, and c = -61.
= [tex]\frac{-6 ± \sqrt{6^2 - 4 * 5 * (-61)} }{2 * 5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-6 ± \sqrt{36 - 20 * (-61)} }{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-6 ± \sqrt{36 + 1,220)} }{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-6 ± \sqrt{1,256} }{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{-6 ± 35.44009029}{10}[/tex]
Since time cannot be negative, we will not minus the 35.44009029.
(-6 + 35.44009029) / 10 = 29.44009029 / 10 = 2.944009029
That is approximately 2.94 seconds.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{t = 2.94 \ seconds}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
When the ball hits the ground, h = 0
Putting this in the equation:
=> [tex]0 = 61-6t-5t^2[/tex]
=> [tex]61-6t-5t^2 = 0[/tex]
Taking -1 as common
=> [tex]-1(5t^2+6t-61) = 0[/tex]
Dividing both sides by -1
=> [tex]5t^2+6t-61 = 0[/tex]
Using Quadratic Equation:
=>t = [tex]\frac{-b+ / - \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{-6 +/- \sqrt{6^2-4(5)(-61)} }{2(5)}\\\frac{-6 +/- \sqrt{36+1220} }{10}[/tex]
=> t = [tex]\frac{-6 +/- 35.44}{10}[/tex]
Either:
t = [tex]\frac{-6+35.44}{10}[/tex] OR t = [tex]\frac{-6-35.44}{10}[/tex]
t = 29.44/10 OR t = -41.44/10
t = 2.94 OR t = -4.14
Time can never be negative so t = 2.94 secs
