ANSWER:

C. Place the compass on point A. Open the compass to a point between point P and point B.

EXPLANATION:

A perpendicular is a line that would be at a right angle to line BA.

The next step is to chose a radius that is greater than PB or PA so as to construct the bisector. And this can be done by placing the compass on point A, and open the compass to a point between point P and point B.

Use this radius to draw an arc above and below the line, and repeat the same using B as the center with the same radius. This would form two intersecting arcs above and below line BA. Join the point of intersection of the arcs by a straight line through P. This is the bisector of line BA through point P.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

280 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 65% of people surveyed were pleased with condition of the park.

Given that those pleased were 182 people, then finding the total number of people surveyed will be;

65%= 182 people

100%= ?--------------------cross multiply

\frac{65}{100} *x=182\\\\\\65x=18200\\\\\\x=\frac{18200}{65} \\\\\\x=280

Dmitri wants to cover the top and sides of the box shown with glass tiles that are 3 5 mm square How many tiles does he need 20
Anna35 [415]
Lets split the box in pieces and then add:
top = 20*15 = 300
sidesA = 2*20*9 = 360, is multiplied  by 2 cause there are 2 sides like this
sidesB = 2*9*15 = 270, is multiplied  by 2 cause there are 2 sides like this
so in total we have:
total = 300 + 360 + 270 = 930 cm^2
if we express this quantity in mm^2 we have:
<span>1cm² = 100 mm²</span>total = 930*100 = 93000 mm^2
so if the tiles are 5 mm^2 we need:
total tiles = <span>93000/5 = 18600
we need 18600 tiles of 5 mm^2</span>

In developing an interval estimate for a population mean, a sample of 50 observations was used. the interval estimate was 19.76
alexandr402 [8]

 

The formula for interval estimate would be: μ = M ± Z(<span>sM</span>)

Where: μ is estimate

M is the mean 

Z is the z value

(<span>sM</span>) is the standard error

 

μ = M ± Z(<span>sM</span>)

n = 200 rather than 50 (√200 = 2√50)

<span>⇒ ME = (1/2) * 1.32 = .66</span>

<span>Using the formula above, plugging this in will give us: μ = 19.76 ± .66</span>

<span> = 19.76  ±  .66 is the confidence interval or interval estimate</span>
