d C on segment AC and point D is between points A and B on segment AB, angle A is a right angle AC is a transversal line passing ED and CB. Angle A is congruent to itself, due to the reflexive property. Segments ED and CB are parallel. The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C.

Answer:

The correct option is;

The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C

Step-by-step explanation:

The statements are analysed as follows

1. Angle A is congruent to itself reflective property

Which shows that ΔABC and ΔADE have a common and equal angle

2. Segment ED and CB are parallel

From the transversal line passing EB and CB which shows that the angles ∠ADE and ∠ABC are equal and also ∠AED and ∠ACB are equal

The statement is used to prove similarity between the ΔABC and ΔADE

3. The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C

The above statements relates to only ΔABC and i does not show similarity between ΔABC and ΔADE.

Esteban is reading a book with 16 pages. He has read 9 pages so far. How many pages does Esteban have left to read? Write two eq

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

7 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the total number of pages in the book are 16

The number of pages esteban already read are 9

Let the number of pages left out to read be x

Total number of pages = number of pages read + number of pages to be read

16=9+x

x=16-9

x=7 pages

Therefore There are 7 pages left out to be read.

Find the quantity q that maximizes profit if the total revenue, R(q), and total cost, C(q) are given in dollars by R(q)=3q−0.002

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The value of q that maximize the profit is q=200 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The profit is equal to the revenue minus the cost

we have

$R(q)=3q-0.002q^{2}$ ---> the revenue

$C(q)=200+2.2q$ ---> the cost

The profit P(q) is equal to

$P(q)=R(q)-C(q)$

substitute the given values

$P(q)=(3q-0.002q^{2})-(200+2.2q)$

$P(q)=3q-0.002q^{2}-200-2.2q$

$P(q)=-0.002q^{2}+0.8q-200$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (because the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

The x-coordinate of the vertex represent the value of q that maximize the profit

The y-coordinate of the vertex represent the maximum profit

using a graphing tool

Graph the quadratic equation

The vertex is the point (200,-120)

see the attached figure

therefore

The value of q that maximize the profit is q=200 units

Coupons driving visits. A store randomly samples 603 shoppers over the course of a year and nds that 142 of them made their visi

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all shoppers during the year whose visit was because of a coupon they'd received in the mail is (0.2016, 0.2694)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

$n = 603, \pi = \frac{142}{603} = 0.2355$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2355 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2355*0.7645}{603}} = 0.2016$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2355 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2355*0.7645}{603}} = 0.2694$

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all shoppers during the year whose visit was because of a coupon they'd received in the mail is (0.2016, 0.2694)

A test tube contains 25 bacteria, 5 of which are can stay alive for atleast 30 days, 10 of which will die in their second day. 1

boyakko [2]

Answer:

c. $\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of bacterias who alive for at least 30 days = 5,

Bacterias who alive for 2 days = 10,

Died bacterias = 10,

Total bacterias = 5 + 10 + 10 = 25,

Ways of choosing a bacteria = $^{25}C_1$ = $\frac{25!}{1! 24!}$ = 25,

While, ways of choosing of a bacteria who will live after 1 week = $^5C_1$ = $\frac{5!}{1!4!}$ = 5,

Hence, the probability it will still be alive after one week = $\frac{5}{25}$ = $\frac{1}{5}$

OPTION C is correct.
