Using the proportionality theorem, the measurements are: c. E = 22 and F = 55.
What is the Proportionality Theorem?If two transversals intersect three or more parallel lines, they divide the lines in such a way that the smaller segments are proportional to each other or have ratios that are equal to each other.
Given the following:
A = 36,
B = 24,
C = 60
D = 33.
Since all lines are parallel, then:
A/D = B/E = C/F
Find the measure of E using the ratio, A/D = B/E:
36/33 = 24/E
Cross multiply
E = (24 × 33)/36
E = 22
Find the measure of F using the ratio, A/D = C/F:
36/33 = 60/F
Cross multiply
F = (60 × 33)/36
F = 55
The answer is: c. E = 22 and F = 55.

The mean absolute deviation of the roller coaster speeds in North America is 13.3
The mean absolute deviation of the roller coaster speeds in Asia is 16.8
How to solve for the meansFirst we have to start with the data for North America
128, 120, 100, 93, 92, 80.8, 85, 82, 80, 77
To get the mean you have to sum up the values and divide through by the total number 10

What number must be an integer multiplied by to find a perfect square?
A number is a perfect square if the following property is satisfied:
a = b², where is a natural number.
Please notice that b can be either a prime number or a product of prime numbers.
Initially, we proceed to factorize 35280 by factorial decomposition, that is, as a product of prime numbers:
35280 = 2⁴ × 3² × 5 × 7²
35280 = (2²)² × 3² × 5 × 7²
35280 = 4² × 3² × 5 × 7²
Then, we must add a 5 to find a product that is a perfect square:

Two 6-sided dice, one red and one green, are rolled. What is the probability that the red die shows a 2 and the green die shows a 5
The probability that the red die shows a 2 and the green die shows a 5 is 1/36
How to determine the probability that the red die shows a 2 and the green die shows a 5?The sample space of a die is
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
This means that
Red die = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Green die = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
On the dice, we have
P(Red = 2) = 1/6
P(Green = 5) = 1/6
The probability that the red die shows a 2 and the green die shows a 5 is
P = P(Red = 2) * P(Green = 5)
Substitute the known values in the above equation
P = 1/6 *1/6

A. 1
B. Undefined
C. -1
D. 0
The answer is B.
If the terminal point of θ is at (0, -1), then tanθ is equal to :
Δy/Δx-1/0UndefinedThe tangent of the given angle is undefined, so the correct option is B.
What is a tangent function?The tangent function is one of the main six trigonometric functions and is generally written as tan x. It is the ratio of the opposite side and the adjacent side of the angle in consideration in a right-angled triangle.
Given that on a unit circle, the terminal point of θ is (0, - 1) we need to determine tan θ,
We know that the terminal point of θ is (0, -1).
Now, the tangent of an angle is equal to the quotient between the y-component and the x-component of the terminal point, then we have:
tan(θ) = =1/0
And we can't divide by zero, so it is undefined, then the correct option is B.

A whole number is 6 more than 2 times another number. The sum of the two numbers is less than 50. This can be written in an inequality as x + 2x + 6 < 50, where x represents the smaller number.
The smaller number that we can take is x = 14, and in that case, the value of the other number is y = 34
How to write the inequality?First, we have two numbers, x and y, such that:
y = 6 + 2*x
"the first number is 6 more than 2 times another number".
Now we know that the sum of these two numbers is smaller than 50, then we can write:
x + y < 50
Replacing y by the above equation we get:
x + 6 + 2x < 50
3x + 6 < 50
Now we can solve that inequality for x:
3x < 50 - 6 = 44
x < 44/3 = 14.6
And x can only be a whole number, then:
x ≤ 14
The smaller number that we can take is x = 14, and in that case, the value of the other number is:

Answer:
g(x) = (x + 1)² + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
the original function
f(x) = x²
for the new function g(x)
it is shifted 1 unit to the left and 1 unit up.
the shift to the left is done by adding these units to the input variable x :
g(x) = f(x+1) = (x+1)²
that way we get the function value for x+1 already at x :
1 unit "earlier" than in the original.
and the shift up is easy.
whatever the function calculates, we simply add 1 to everything.
the whole curve stays as it is, just one unit higher. g
so, the final g(x) = f(x+1) + 1 = (x + 1)² + 1

SOH CAH TOA identityThe given figure is a right triangle with legs 12.0 and 22.5cm and the hypotenuse 25.5cm
For sinA, <A is the reference angle, hence the opposite side will be 22.5cm
sin A = opp/hyp
sinA = 22.5/25.5
For cos C, the adjacent side will be 22.5cm, hence the measure of cos C is 22.5/25.5
cosC = 22.5/25.5
Similarly, sinC = 12/25.5 = 24/51
<A = 180-(90 +38)
<A =180 - 128
<A = 62 degrees
tan A = opp/adj

tan C = 12/22.5

Now, we can rewrite 20m²/n² +1 - 30n²/m² as 20m²/n² +25mn/mn- 24mn/mn- 30n²/m².
=(20m²/n² +25mn/mn)- (24mn/mn- 30n²/m²)
=5m/n(4m/n + 5m/n)-6n/m(4m/n+5n/m)
=(4m/n + 5m/n)(5m/n-6n/m)
Therefore, the factors of the given expression is (4m/n + 5m/n)(5m/n-6n/m).

help pls with math lotsss of points!!!
Answer:
5x^2+22x-12 x cannot be -5, -4, -2
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this, your denominator must be the same. Let's start by writing out the two different quadratic formulas:
x^2 + 6x + 8 <-- This should factor out to (x+4)(x+2)
x^2 + 7x + 10 <-- This should factor out to (x+5)(x+2)
Now that you have factored out the two quadratics, plug them into the equation.
5x - 3
(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+2)
Now as we know, -2 cannot be x because it will turn the entire equation undefined. Multiple top and bottom with (x+5) on the right side and (x+4) on the left side.
5x (x+5) - 3(x+4)
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
Focus on the top. 5x(x+5) will turn out to be 5x^2+25x. 3(x+4) will turn out to be 3x+12. Combine the two equations because now they are equal to each other and do the subtraction:
5x^2+25x - (3x+12) = 5x^2+22x-12 x cannot be -5, -4, -2
(x+5)(x+4)(x+2) (x+5)(x+4)(x+2)
The odds in favor of a horse winning a race are 9:5. find the probability that the horse will win the race.
Answer:
9/14.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability is given as a fraction or percentage.
9:5 odds in favour of a horse winning means the horse will win 9 races for every 5 it does not win.
So the probability that this horse will win is 9/(9+5)
= 9/14.
