Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Got it right on brainly

Answer 2

The blue marble should be worth 8 points , Option C is the answer.

What is Probability ?

Probability is the likeliness of an event to happen.

Let the random variable is x ,

probability mass function is f(x) = P(X = x)

then The expectation of a random variable is determined by

E(x) = ∑(i =1 to n)    (  [tex]\rm x _i *f(x_i)[/tex] )

If the game has to be fair , the number of points that one can loose should be equal to the  number of points one can gain.

Probability of getting any color marble = 1/5 = 0.2

Let x be the total points scored in a game

and b be the number of points for blue coloured marble

Probability of choosing non-blue marble = 4/5 (points =-2)

Probability of choosing blue marble = 1/5 (points = b)

E(x) = -2 * (4*5) + b* (1/5)

The expectation will be zero as the total points balance out

0 = -8/5 + b/5

b = 8

Therefore the blue marble should be worth 8 points , Option C is the answer.

Complete the sentence the length of a segment from a vertex to the centroid is the length of the median from that vertex

Answers

Answer:

The length of a segment from a vertex to the centroid is

“ 2/3 “ the length of the median from that vertex

Hence, the length of the median from that vertex is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

What is the vertex?

The common endpoint of two or more rays or line segments Vertex typically means a corner or a point where lines meet.

Here given that,

The length of a segment from a vertex to the centroid is the length of the median from that vertex.

So, the length of a segment from a vertex to the centroid is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] which is the median of that vertex.

Hence, the length of the median from that vertex is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

first distribute
4x=2(x-5)-2
4x=2x-10-2
4x=2x-12
2x=-12
x=-6

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = 2(x-5)-2

2 * x = 2x

2*-5 = -10

4x = 2x - 10 -2

4x = 2x - 12

4x - 2x = 2x

2x = -12

x = -6

Your math test scores
are 81%, 77%, 79%,
83%, and 70%. Which
measure of central
tendency should tell
your parents to make
your math test scores
seem highest?

Answers

Answer:

Median

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean: (81+77+79+83+70)/5 = 78

Median: 70, 77, 79, 81, 83

Mode: None

Therefore, the median is the better measure of central  tendency you should tell  your parents to make  your math test scores  seem highest.

Answer:

if you choose mean, your score would be 78 because 81+77+79+83+70=390, divide that by 5 and you get 78, your median would be the 79, and if you choose mode, you really couldn't calculate it since there is only one of each number, therefore the best choice is the median of 79%

Given: α is an angle in the second quadrant, csc α = 25/7; β is an angle in the first quadrant, cos β = √2/2. The value of tan ( α - β ) = _____.
-3/17
29/17
-31/17
15/17

Answers

Answer:

-31/17

Step-by-step explanation:

csc²α-cot²α=1

cot²α=csc²α-1=(25/7)²-1=(625-49)/49=576/49

α is in 2nd quadrant so cotα is negative.

cot α=-√(576/49)=-24/7

tan α=-7/24

cos β=√2/2

sec β=2/√2=√2

sec²β-tan ²β=1

tan ²β=sec²β-1

tan²β=(√2)²-1=2-1=1

β is in 1st quadrant ,so tan β is positive.

tan β=1

[tex]tan (\alpha -\beta )=\frac{tan \alpha -tan \beta }{1+tan \alpha tan \beta } \\=\frac{\frac{-7}{24} -1}{1+(\frac{-7}{24}) (1)} \\=\frac{-7-24}{24-7} \\=\frac{-31}{17}[/tex]

The length would be 1.5x + 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

So first with this, note that 2 length + 2 height gives the perimeter of the rectangle.

Given this:

2(1/2x + 4) + 2(?) = 4x+18

x+8 + 2(?) = 4x+18

2(?) = 3x+10

? = 1.5x+5

1.5x + 5 = 1.5x + 5

The length would be 1.5x + 5.

To double check, by plugging in 1.5x + 5 back into the equation for the perimeter, you will get the same perimeter:

2(1.5x + 5) + 2(1/2x+4) = P

3x+10 + x+8 = P

4x + 18 = P

The perimeter of the polygon is_______units.

Answers

Answer:

3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sides are congruent, then

5 - 2x = - 4x + 9 ( add 4x to both sides )

5 + 2x = 9 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 2

Then

5 - 2x = 5 - 2(2) = 5 - 4 = 1

perimeter = 3 × 1 = 3 units
