Triangle J L N is cut by line segment K M. LIne segment K M goes from side J L to side L N. The length of J K is 10, the length

of K L is 16, the length of L M is 24, and the length of M N is 15. Is KM ∥ JN? Why or why not? No, because StartFraction 16 Over 10 EndFraction not-equals StartFraction 24 Over 15 EndFraction. Yes, because StartFraction 10 Over 24 EndFraction equals StartFraction 15 Over 16 EndFraction. Yes, because StartFraction 16 Over 10 EndFraction equals StartFraction 15 Over 24 EndFraction Yes, because StartFraction 16 Over 10 EndFraction equals StartFraction 24 Over 15 EndFraction.

Answer:

D. Yes, because StartFraction 16 Over 10 EndFraction equals StartFraction 24 Over 15 EndFraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

When two line are parallel, they do not meet even with continuous extension of their length.

In the given triangle JLN, line segment KM would be parallel to side JN if;

\frac{KL}{JK} = \frac{LM}{MN}

Given that: KL = 16, JK = 10, LM = 24 and MN = 15.

⇒  \frac{16}{10} = \frac{24}{15}

     \frac{8}{5} = \frac{8}{5}

Therefore, since the ratios are the same then KM ∥ JN. So that the statement; Yes, because  \frac{16}{10} equals  \frac{24}{15} is correct.

The mean annual salary for intermediate level executives is about $74000 per year with a standard deviation of $2500. A random s
lidiya [134]

Answer:

11.51% probability that the mean annual salary of the sample is between $71000 and $73500

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 74000, \sigma = 2500, n = 36, s = \frac{2500}{\sqrt{36}} = 416.67

What is the probability that the mean annual salary of the sample is between $71000 and $73500?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 73500 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 71000. So

X = 73500

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{73500 - 74000}{416.67}

Z = -1.2

Z = -1.2 has a pvalue of 0.1151

X = 71000

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{71000 - 74000}{416.67}

Z = -7.2

Z = -7.2 has a pvalue of 0.

0.1151 - 0 = 0.1151

11.51% probability that the mean annual salary of the sample is between $71000 and $73500

What is the median of the following 7 scores?
dybincka [34]
First, you want to put all the numbers in order from least to greatest.

21, 33, 33, 42, 67, 79, 89

Now, you can use this song to help remember how to do these problems.

Cross off the sides till you get to the center. 1 is good, 2 is bad. (If you get two numbers in the middle) add then divide by two.

Cross off 21, then 89, then 33, then 79, then 33, then 67. Now, you're left with 42 in the middle. That is your median. Hope this helps! :)

the united states has 12,383 miles of coastline.if 0.8% of the coastline is located in georgia,about how many miles of coastline
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

825.5 miles of coastline

Step-by-step explanation:

The United States has 12383 miles of coastline.

0.8% of the coastline is in Georgia

Total number of coastline in Georgia will be

0.8% /100% x 12383

0.0667 x 12383

825.5

So there are 825.5 miles of coastline Georgia
