Answer:

A). Participle phrase.

Step-by-step explanation:

'Participle phrases' are defined as the phrases that consist of a participle(present or past) followed by modifiers and their object plus any/or complements. These phrases primarily function as adjectives by providing information about a noun or pronoun in the sentence.

In the given sentence, the underlined portion('stepping from the embrace') is a participle phrase as it begins with a participle('present as it ends with 'ing') followed by the modifier prepositional phrase 'from the embrace'(as an adverb). It is <u>functioning as an adjective as it modifies the pronoun 'she' in the sentence</u>. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

What are the x- and y- coordinates of point E, which partitions the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 1:4? (–13,
Lana71 [14]

I added a screenshot of the complete question.

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

(-7, -1)

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>The formulas given to calculated the x and y coordinates are as follows:</u>

x = (\frac{m}{m+n})(x_{2}-x_{1}) + x_{1}\\\\y = (\frac{m}{m+n})(y_{2}-y_{1}) + y_{1}

<u>Let's define the variables used:</u>

(x₁ , y₁) are the coordinates of the first point while (x₂ , y₂) are the coordinates of the second point.

<u>We are given that the segment is directed from J to K, therefore:</u>

First point is J ..........> (x₁ , y₁) is (-15, -5)

Second point is K ....> (x₂ , y₂) is (25, 15)

m and n defined the portion of the partitioned segment (JE : EK). It is given that this ratio is 1:4. <u>Therefore:</u>

m = 1 and n = 4

<u>Finally, let's substitute with these variables in the equations as follows:</u>

x = (\frac{1}{1+4})(25-(-15)) + (-15) = -7\\\\y = (\frac{1}{1+4})(15-(-5)) + (-5) = -1

Based on the above, the coordinates of point E are (-7, -1)

Hope this helps :)

Pam likes to practice dancing while preparing for a math tournament. She spends 80 minutes every day practicing dance and math.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Part A)

x+y=80

y=x+20

B)

30 minutes

C)

no

If Pam was to spend 60 minutes practicing dance, then she would only get 20 minutes of math. 60-20=40. She would be practicing dance 40 minutes more than math, not just 20.

Use the appropriate normal distribution to approximate the resulting binomial distributions. A convenience store owner claims th
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

0.9256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a convenience store owner claims that 55% of the people buying from her store, on a certain day of the week, buy coffee during their visit

Let X be the number of customers who buy from her store, on a certain day of the week, buy coffee during their visit

X is Binomial (35, 0.55)

since each customer is independent of the other and there are two outcomes.

By approximation to normal we find that both np and nq are >5.

So X can be approximated to normal with mean = np = 19.25

and std dev = \sqrt{npq} \\=2.943

Required probability = prob that fewer than 24 customers in the sample buy coffee during their visit on that certain day of the week

= P(X (after effecting continuity correction)

= 0.9256
