Answer:

the correct choice is A. At the gas station

Step-by-step explanation:

Lucy starts at home and travels 3 miles south to the post office. From the post office, she travels 4 miles east to the gas station. As it is known south and east directions form right angle. Since the entire trip forms a triangle, this triangle is right with right angle at the post office.

Call the vertices of this triangle P - post office, G - gas station, H - home. Then HP and PG are legs of this triangle and GH is hypotenuse.

From the given data:

HP=3;

PG=4;

GH=5;

∠P=90°.

The smallest angle is opposite to the smallest side. The smallest side is leg HP, so the smallest angle is G that is the angle at gas station.

Answer:

<u>The measure of the arc CD = 64°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to find the measure of the arc CD in degrees.

So, as shown at the graph

BE and AD are are diameters of circle P

And ∠APE is a right angle ⇒ ∠APE = 90°

So, BE⊥AD

And so, ∠BPE = 90° ⇒(1)

But it is given: ∠BPE = (33k-9)° ⇒(2)

From (1) and (2)

∴ 33k - 9 = 90

∴ 33k = 90 + 9 = 99

∴ k = 99/33 = 3

The measure of the arc CD = ∠CPD = 20k + 4

By substitution with k

<u>∴ The measure of the arc CD = 20*3 + 4 = 60 + 4 = 64°</u>

1. In a batch of 10 items, we wish to extract a sample of 3 without replacement. How many
svetlana [45]

Answer:

1) 120

2) E (Z) = 12 and Variance of Z = 90

a) 5 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can find this by suing combinations.

Here n= 10 and r= 3 so n C r

= 10 C 3= 120

2. E(X) = 8 and E(Y) = 3

Z = 2X - 3Y +5

E(Z ) = 2 E (X) - 3(E)(Y) +5   ( applying property for mean)

       = 2(8) - 3(3)+ 5 = 16+5-9= 21-9= 12

V(X) = 9 and V(Y) = 6.

V(Z) = E(Z )²-  V(X) *V(Y)   (applying property for Variance for two variables )

        = 144- 54= 90

3. 55 liters contain adulterated milk in 7: 4.

So it contains 4/ 11*55= 20 liters of water

But we want to make it a ratio of 7:6

the water will be 6/13 *55= 25.38 when rounded gives 25 liters of water

So 25- 20 = 5 liters must be added to make it a ratio of 7:6

Caswell started studying how the number of branches on his tree grows over time. The relationship between the elapsed time ttt,
ipn [44]

Answer:

t =log(20) / 0.3 = 10*log(20) / log(1,000) - years - when the tree will have 100 branches.

Step-by-step explanation:

100 = 5 * 10^(0.3t), solve for t

Divide both sides by 5:

20 =10^(0.3t)

Take the log of both sides:

0.3t =log(20)

Divide both sides by 0.3:

Multiply the RHS by 10 / 10

t =log(20) / 0.3 = 10*log(20) / log(1,000) - years - when the tree will have 100 branches.
