The value of ∠x in the given triangle is 33° i.e. B.

What is a triangle?

In Geometry, triangles are the type of polygons, which have three sides and three vertices. This is a two-dimensional figure with three straight sides. A triangle is considered a 3-sided polygon. The sum of all the three angles of a triangle is equal to 180°. The triangle is contained in a single plane. Based on its sides and angle measurement, the triangle has six types.

Based on the sides of a triangle, a triangle is classified into 3 types, namely:

Scalene Triangle – All the sides are of different measures.

Isosceles Triangle – Two sides of a triangle are of the same measure and the remaining side has a different measure.

Equilateral Triangle – All the 3 sides of a triangle are of the same measure.

Based on the angles of a triangle, a triangle is classified into 3 types, namely:

Acute Angle Triangle – All the angles of a triangle is less than 90°.

Obtuse Angle Triangle – One of the angles of a triangle is greater than 90°.

Right Angle Triangle – One of the angles of a triangle is equal to 90°.

Now,

As we know

The sum of all the three angles of a triangle =180°

x+105+42=180

∠x=33°

hence,

          The value of ∠x in the given triangle is 33°.

The amount they would save on the cost of the house if they selected the 15-year mortgage rather than the 30-year mortgage is $55,398.6

Interest is the fee paid for having access to borrowed funds. While the interest rate used to compute interest is often reported as an annual percentage rate, interest expense or revenue is sometimes expressed as a dollar figure (APR). The compensation a lender or financial organization receives for giving out money is called interest.

Given a family wants to purchase a house that cost $135,000,

down payment = $20,000

mortgage = $1,15,000

Case 1: For a 15-year mortgage their monthly payment would be 776.85

there will be 12 payments in a year

total amount to be paid in 15 years = 15*12*776.85

total amount to be paid in 15 years =  $1,38,033

Case 2: For a 30-year mortgage their monthly payment would be 537.31

total amount to be paid in 30 years = 30*12*537.31

total amount to be paid in 30 years = $1,93,431.6

the amount they would save on the cost of the house if they selected the 15-year mortgage rather than the 30-year mortgage is

$1,38,033 - $1,93,431.6 = $55,398.6

Null hypothesis [tex]H_0[/tex] : p = 0.5 and alternative hypothesis [tex]H_1: $p \neq 0.5$[/tex]

The standardized statistic from the data is 3.1623

The observed standardized statistic is 3.1623

Based on the standardized statistic, we conclude that there is enough evidence to suggest that these monkeys can interpret human gestures better than random chance.

As per the given data: a choice between two boxes, 30 out of 40 monkeys approached the box that the human had gestured toward, and 10 approached the other box.

Here, p =  proportion of rhesus monkeys who tan interpret human gestures better.

a) Null hypothesis [tex]H_0[/tex] : p = 0.5

Alternative hypothesis [tex]H_1: $p \neq 0.5$[/tex]

b) Given, [tex]$\hat{p}=\frac{x}{n}=\frac{30}{40}=0.75, p_0=0.5$[/tex]

Standardized test statistic,

[tex]$Z=\frac{\hat{p}-p_0}{\frac{p_0\left(1-p_0\right)}{n}} \stackrel{H_0}{\sim} N(0,1)$[/tex]

Therefore the standardized statistic from the data = 3.1623

c) Assuming [tex]$H_0$[/tex] is true, the value of the observed standardized statistic is 3.1623 standard deviations above the mean(=0).

d) Now, p-value [tex]$=2 \times \min [p(z > 3.1623), p(z \leq 3.1623)]$[/tex]

= 0.00157

Since p-value <0.05, we reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex].

The measure of angle x = 50° and y = 40°.

A angle is formed when two rays intersect. The point of intersection is called the vertex point .

Given is that in rectangle ABCD in which -

m ∠EAB = (4x+6)°  

m ∠DEC = (10−11y)°

m ∠EBC = 60°

We can write -

∠AEB = ∠DEC = (10 - 11y)°

Now, we know that the external angle is the sum of two interior opposite angles. So -

∠EBC = (4x + 6) + (10 - 11y)

4x - 11y + 16 = 60

4x - 11y = 54

and

(4x + 6) + (10 - 11y) + 30 = 180

4x - 11y = 144

Solving graphically, we get -

x = 50°

y = 40°

Therefore, the measure of angle x = 50° and y = 40°.

From the given function, we can make the first graph. We know that the domain for each function individually are:

f(x) = 5x - 2, if x < 1

dom f(x) = (-∞,1)

Range = (-∞, 3)

f(x) = x - 7, if x ≥ 1

dom f(x) = (1, ∞)

Range = (-6, ∞)

By combining both function's domains and range, we can find the piecewise function domain and range are:

D =  (-∞,∞) --> include 1

R =  (-∞,∞)

g(x) = {-x, if x < -5}

         {3, if x > -5}

From the given function, we know each domain and range are:

g(x) = -x, if x < -5

dom g(x) = (-∞, -5)

Range = (5, ∞)

g(x) = 3, if x > -5

dom g(x) =  (-5, ∞)

for B: 5, 5, 17, 59, 177, 521, and for C: 2, 1, 3, 6, 15, 45

A. The 1st sequence is a geometric sequence, where each term is the product of the two preceding terms. The 1st term is 1, the 2nd term is 2, and the rest of the terms are calculated as below:

a3 = a1 * a2 = 1 * 2 = 2

a4 = a2 * a3 = 2 * 2 = 4

a5 = a3 * a4 = 2 * 4 = 8

a6 = a4 * a5 = 4 * 8 = 16

So, the first six terms of the sequence are 1, 2, 2, 4, 8, and 16.

B. The 2nd sequence can be calculated by using the formula

an = 2 * an - 1 + 3 * an - 2 for n greater than or equal to 2. The 1st term a1 is 5 and the 2nd term a2 is 5, so the rest of the terms are calculated as below:

a3 = 2 * a2 + 3 * a1 = 2 * 5 + 3 * 5 = 17

a4 = 2 * a3 + 3 * a2 = 2 * 17 + 3 * 5 = 59

a5 = 2 * a4 + 3 * a3 = 2 * 59 + 3 * 17 = 177

a6 = 2 * a5 + 3 * a4 = 2 * 177 + 3 * 59 = 521

So, the first six terms of the sequence are 5, 5, 17, 59, 177, and 521.

C. The 3rd sequence follows the formula gn = n * gn - 1 + gn - 2. The 1st term g1 is 2 and the 2nd term g2 is 1, so the rest of the terms are calculated as below:

John's average speed for the entire trip is 50 km/h. So the minimum average speed for the entire trip would be 60 km/h.

To calculate John's average speed, we need to determine the total distance he covered and the total time he spent driving. Given that John drove 60 km/h for 2 hours in the morning, and 40 km/h for a different amount of time in the evening, we can calculate the total distance as follows:

[tex]d = 60 × 2 + 40 × T[/tex]

where T is the total time spent driving in the evening.

To find John's average speed, we need to divide the total distance by the total time:

Average speed = [tex]d / (2 + T)[/tex]

Since we do not know the value of T, we cannot determine the exact average speed. However, we can determine an upper bound on the average speed by assuming that T is 0 (i.e., John drove back to town immediately after arriving at his mother's house). In this case, John's average speed would be equal to the speed he drove in the morning, which was 60 km/h.

Hence the minimum average speed for the entire trip would be 60 km/h, and the maximum average speed would be equal to the speed he drove in the evening, which was 40 km/h. The average of these two speeds is 50 km/h.

The system of equations that has a solution with x-coordinate of 3.5 and 6 is C. y = 1/2x + 3 and y = -(x - 5)² + 7.

To determine if a coordinate is a solution to a system of equations, substitute the values for the x and y in both equations and check if both resulting equations are true. If both resulting equations are true, then the coordinate is a solution to the system of equations.

A. y = x + 3.5

y = 3.5 + 3.5 = 7

y = x² + 6

7 = 3.5² + 6

7 ≠ 18.25

B. y = x - 7

y = 3.5 - 7 = -3.5

y = -(x - 6)²

-3.5 = -(3.5 - 6)²

-3.5 ≠ -6.25

C. y = 1/2x + 3

y = 1/2(3.5) + 3 = 4.75

y = -(x - 5)² + 7

4.75 = -(3.5 - 5)² + 7

4.75 = 4.75

y = 1/2x + 3

y = 1/2(6) + 3 = 6

y = -(x - 5)² + 7

6 = -(6 - 5)² + 7

6 = 6

D. y = 1/2x + 7

y = 1/2(3.5) + 7 = 8.75

y = -(x - 6)² + 3.5

8.75 = -(3.5 - 6)² + 3.5

8.75 ≠ -2.75

Let us represent the total surface area of the earth as = x

We are told in the question that:

Water covers 70.8%, or about 3.61 × 10⁸ km², of the Earth's surface.

70.8% = 0.708

Hence,

0.708 × x = 3.61 × 10⁸

x = 3.61 × 10⁸/0.708

x = 361000000/0.708

x = 509,887,005.65km²

Therefore, the total surface are the earth approximately to the nearest million = 510,000,000 million km²

This is the number "510 million"

=======================================================

Work Shown:

The times 10⁸ means "times 100 million"

3.61 x 10⁸ = 3.61 * 100 million = 361 million

S = surface area of the earth

70.8% of S = water coverage area

70.8% of S = 361 million square km

0.708S = 361 million square km

S = (361/0.708) million square km

S = 509.887 million square km

S = 510 million square km

S = 510,000,000 square km

To determine the times at which v(t) has a local minimum and maximum, we need to find the critical points of the function. A critical point is a value of t for which either the first derivative, v'(t), or the second derivative, v''(t), is equal to zero or does not exist.

The first derivative of v(t) is given by:

v'(t) = a + 2bt + y

Setting v'(t) equal to zero and solving for t, we get:

0 = a + 2bt + y

t = -a / 2b = -(3 m/s^4) / (2(-24 m/s^2)) = 3/48 s

The second derivative of v(t) is given by:

v''(t) = 2b

Since b is negative, v''(t) is negative, so v(t) has a local maximum at t = 3/48 s.

Similarly, since the second derivative is constant and negative, the function v(t) has a local minimum.

Therefore, the times at which v(t) has a local minimum and maximum are 3/48 s and 3/48 s, respectively, expressed as two numbers separated by a comma: 3/48 s, 3/48 s.

The value of the z-score corresponding to each position in the distribution is given by = { -2 , -1 , 0 , 1 , 2 }

The relationship between a value and the mean of a set of values is expressed numerically by a Z-score. The Z-score is computed using the standard deviations from the mean. A Z-score of zero indicates that the data point's score and the mean score are identical.

The Z-score is calculated using the formula:

z = (x - μ)/σ

where z: standard score

x: observed value

μ: mean of the sample

σ: standard deviation of the sample

Given data ,

Let the z-scores corresponding to each position in the distribution be z

Now , the equation will be

The mean of the data μ = 50

The standard deviation of the data σ = 10

The value of x for the letters A, B, C, and D is given by { 30 , 50 , 60 , 70 }

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The Z-score is calculated using the formula:

z = (x - μ)/σ

For letter A ,

z = ( 30 - 50 ) / 10

On simplifying the equation , we get

z = -20/10

z = -2

And , for letter B ,

z = ( 50 - 50 ) / 10

z = 0/10

z = 0

For letter C ,

z = ( 60 - 50 ) / 10

z = 10/10

z = 1

For letter D ,

z = ( 70 - 50 ) / 10

z = 20/10

z = 2

Now , the k-scores of the letters E , F , G and H is calculated by

The mean of the letters = 100

The standard deviation of the letters = 20

So , the k-scores of the letters are = { 60 , 80 , 100 , 140 }

Now , the mean of the data is given by = ( 60 + 80 + 100 + 120 + 140 ) / 5

So , the mean is μ = 500/5 = 100

Hence , the z-scores of the letters are solved

Answer:

n=212.9

Step-by-step explanation:

= 4068 + 55n/60 + n = 64.1

= 4068 + 55n = 64.1 ( 60 + n )

= 4068 + 55n = 3846 + 64.1n

= 55n - 64.1 = 3846 - 4068

= - 9.1n = 222

= -9.1n/-9.1 = 222/-9.1

n = 212.9.

14 litres of an 80% acid solution, Let the amount of water needed to create a solution with 60% water be x litres.

Distilled water or pure water are not mixtures. When there are simply water molecules present, there are no additional pollutants or components in the water, making it pure.

A pure material or compound made of oxygen and hydrogen is called water. A mixture would be water that has other substances physically dissolved in it.

20% * 14=0.2*14=2.8 L of water is what you have now

(2.8+x)/(14+x)=60% (amount of water/total amount of solution must equal 60%)

(2.8+x)/(14+x)=60/100

Simplify the fraction 60/100 to 3/5

(2.8+x)/(14+x)=3/5

Cross multiply

5(2.8+x)=3(14+x)

14+5x=42+3x

5x-3x=42-14

2x=28

X=28/2

X=14 L of pure water must be added

Check:

14+2.8=16.8 and 14+14=28

16.8/28=168/280=42/70=6/10=60/100=60%

Therefore, 60%  litres of pure water should be mixed with a 5 litre solution of 80% acid to produce a mixture that is 70% water

A company did a study on the physical activity level and weight gain of its employees. Age was not considered, so it might be an example of a confounding variable.

A confounding variable is an unmeasured third variable that influences, or confounds, the relationship between an independent and a dependent variable. For example, in a study looking at the relationship between smoking and lung cancer, age may be a confounding variable because people who smoke tend to be older than those who do not.

This would mean that age is influencing both smoking and the risk of lung cancer, so the true effect of smoking on the risk of lung cancer cannot be determined without taking age into account. The presence of a confounding variable can distort the results of an experiment and lead to inaccurate conclusions.

For the given triangles ΔABC ≈ ΔBKJ, the value of KJ is, 9

Triangles with the same shape but different sizes are said to be similar triangles. Squares with any side length and all equilateral triangles are examples of related objects. In other words, if two triangles are similar, their corresponding sides are proportionately equal and their corresponding angles are congruent. Triangle resemblance is shown here by the symbol "≈"

Given that,

The triangle, ΔABC

one segment KJ which is intersecting sides AB & BC

ΔABC has one similar triangle inside, which is ΔBKJ

Triangle ΔABC and ΔBKJ similar,

So, we can say ΔABC ≈ ΔBKJ

And it is known that

for similar triangles, ratio of lengths of sides are equal for similar triangles

so, AB/AC = KB/KJ

AB  = 2KB

⇒  2KB/18 = KB/KJ

⇒   2/18  = 1/KJ

⇒   KJ  = 9

Hence, the length of KJ is 9 unit
