If EF bisects angle CEB, angle CEF=7x + 21 and angle FEB = 10x - 3, find the measure of DEB.

ANSWER

FEB=77°

WORD EXPLANATION

(i’m guessing you meant FEB instead of DEB??) okay. so if EF BISECTS something that means that it perfectly divides it in two which means CEF=FEB. you would set those equal to each other & solve.

NUMERIC EXPLANATION

7x+21=10x-3
(+3 to each side)
7x+24=10x
(-7x to each side)
24=3x
(/3 to each side)
8=x

next add it to one of the equations

7x+21 ; 8=x
(7•8)+21
56+21
77

A rectangular container can hold 45 candles, while a cylindrical container holds 41 candles. Each rectangular container costs th
Delvig [45]

Answer: Rectangular container is preferred to minimize the costs and  there are 142 rectangular container is needed to pack 6400 candles.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of candles in a rectangular container = 45

Number of candles in a cylindrical container = 41

Cost of each rectangular container = $15

Cost of each cylinder container = $16

That means ,

In case of rectangular container,

Cost of 45 candles = $15

Cost of 1 candle is given by

\frac{15}{45}=\frac{1}{3}=\$0.33

Similarly,

In case of cylindrical container,

Cost of 41 candles = $16

Cost of 1 candle is given by

\frac{16}{41}=\$0.39

So, if the company needs to package 6,400 candles , it should use <u>rectangular containers </u>to minimize costs.

Number of candle he need to pack = 6400

Number of rectangular container for 6400 candles is given by

\frac{6400}{45}=142.2=142\ approximately.

Hence, there are 142 rectangular container is needed to pack 6400 candles.

The average annual amount American households spend for daily transportation is $6312 (Money, August 2001). Assume that the amou
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

(a) The standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.

(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is 0.2283.

(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation is $6312 (Money, August 2001). Assume that the amount spent is normally distributed.

(a) It is stated that 5% of American households spend less than $1000 for daily transportation.

Let X = <u><em>the amount spent on daily transportation</em></u>

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                          Z  =  \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation = $6,312

           \sigma = standard deviation

Now, 5% of American households spend less than $1000 on daily transportation means that;

                      P(X < $1,000) = 0.05

                      P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma} ) = 0.05

                      P(Z < \frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma} ) = 0.05

In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of below 5% is given as -1.645, this means;

                           \frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}=-1.645                

                            \sigma=\frac{-\$5312}{-1.645}  = 3229.18

So, the standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.

(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is given by = P($4000 < X < $6000)

      P($4000 < X < $6000) = P(X < $6000) - P(X \leq $4000)

 P(X < $6000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{\$6000-\$6312}{\$3229.18} ) = P(Z < -0.09) = 1 - P(Z \leq 0.09)

                                                            = 1 - 0.5359 = 0.4641

 P(X \leq $4000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{\$4000-\$6312}{\$3229.18} ) = P(Z \leq -0.72) = 1 - P(Z < 0.72)

                                                            = 1 - 0.7642 = 0.2358  

Therefore, P($4000 < X < $6000) = 0.4641 - 0.2358 = 0.2283.

(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is given by;

                    P(X > x) = 0.03   {where x is the required range}

                    P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} > \frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18} ) = 0.03

                    P(Z > \frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18} ) = 0.03

In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of top 3% is given as 1.88, this means;

                           \frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}=1.88                

                         {x-\$6312}=1.88\times 3229.18  

                          x = $6312 + 6070.86 = $12382.86

So, the range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.

What is the following quotient 3 sqrt 8/ 4 sqrt 6
adell [148]
We have that
(3√8)/(4√6)

we know that
√8---------> √(2³)-----> 2√2
so
(3√8)/(4√6)=(3*[2√2])/(4√6)---> 6√2/(4√6)
√6=√(2*3)---> √2*√3
6√2/(4√6)=6√2/(4√2*√3)----> 6/(4√3)----> 6/(4√3)*(√3/√3)-----> 6√3/(4*3)----> √3/2

the answer is
√3/2
