Step-by-step explanation:

If segment AD contains point B and, then A, B, C and D lies on the same straight line as shown in the attachment.

To show that point C is the middle of point BD, we musr show that segment BC is equal to CD i.e BC = CD.

From the diagram, AC = AB+BC

Given AC = 12cm and AB = 4cm

BC = AC-AB

BC = 12cm - 4cm

BC = 8cm

Also AD = AB+BC+CD

Given AD = 20cm, AB = 4cm and BC = 8cm

CD = AD-(AB+BC)

CD = 20-(4+8)

CD = 20-12

CD = 8cm

It can be seen that BC = CD = 8cm, hence C is the midpoint of B and C.

Which function has a vertex on the y-axis?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you expand out the expression, you should get f(x) = x² - 4, where only vertical movement is present. Therefore, the vertex is on the y-int at (0, -4) and your answer is the 3rd choice.

A four-person committee is chosen from a group of eight boys and six girls. If students are chosen at random, what is the probab
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer: 0.07

Step-by-step explanation:

in the group, we can have only 4 persons.

we have 8 boys, and 6 girls.

We want to find the probability that in the comite we have only boys.

Ok, for the first selection, the probability of selecting a boy is equal to the number of boys divided the total number of the group ( 8 + 6 = 14) this is

p1 = 8/14.

For the second selection we do the same, but we already slected a boy, so now the number of boys is 7, and the total number of posibilities is 13.

p2 = 7/13.

for the third selection we do the same, in this case the probability is

p3 = 6/12

for the fourth selection the probability will be:

p4 = 5/11

The joint probability, of all the events happening at the same time, is equal to the product of the singular probabilities:

P = p1*p2*p3*p4 = (8/14)*(7/13)*(6/12)*(5/11) = 0.07

amid [387]

1550*0.8=1240

1240/120 = approximately 11 months to pay off

1240/180=approximately 7 months to pay off

11-7 =4

 so it would be paid off 4 months sooner, so C is the answer

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: B. Blind experiment

Step-by-step explanation: While conducting an experiment, experimenters may aim to eliminate factors which are very likely to cause bias and hence affect the veracity of the study. In the scenario above, the participants of the study (coworkers) were only provided with samples of the two coffee types without any of them knowing if it was the coffee they drank now or the new coffee brand. Hence, withholding such information from the participant is a technique in experimenting called blinding. Because, the information could affect the outcome and hence objective of the study as the participants were already partial towards the present coffee being consumed.
