Find the value of w and YZ if Y is between X and Z. XY = 4w YZ = 6W XZ = 12w - 8​

Mathematics

Answer:

w = 4

YZ = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Y is a point lying between the points X and Z.

Therefore, relationship between the lengths of the segments will be,

length of segment XZ = length of XY + length of YZ

It's given in the question,

XZ = 12w - 8

YZ = 6w

XY = 4w

By substituting these values in the relation,

12w - 8 = 4w + 6w

12w - 8 = 10w

12w = 10w + 8

12w - 10w = 8

2w = 8

w = 4

Since, YZ = 6w

Therefore, YZ = 24

Determine the total value of the merchandise using net realizable value. item quantity selling price commission doll 10 $7 $2 ho
NemiM [27]

Quantity of dolls and horses are 10 and 5 respectively .

Selling prices of dolls and horses are $7 and $ 9 respectively .

And the commission on them are $2 and $ 3 respectively .

So net price = 10*(7-2) + 5(9-3) = 10+5 + 5*6 = 50+30 = 80

So the total value of the merchandise using net realizable value is $ 80. Therefore out of the given options, correct option is the last option .

In professional basketball games during 2009-2010, when Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers shot a pair of free throws, 8 time
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Is plausible that the successive throws are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Table with info given

The observed values are given by the following table

__________________________________________________

First shot          Made          Second shot missed           Total

__________________________________________________

Made                  152                       33                                185

Missed                37                         8                                  45

__________________________________________________

Total                    189                       41                                230

2) Calculations and test

We are interested on check independence and for this we need to conduct a chi square test, the next step would be find the expected value:

Null hypothesis: Independence between two successive free throws

Alternative hypothesis: No Independence between two successive free throws

_____________________________________________________

First shot                    Made                                    Second shot missed

_____________________________________________________

Made                  189(185)/230=152.0217                41(185)/230=32.9783

Missed                189(45)/230=36.9783                  41(45)/230=8.0217

_____________________________________________________

On this case all the expected values are higher than 5 and the sample size 230 is enough to apply the chi squared test.

3) Calculate the chi square statistic

The statistic for this case is given by:

\chi_{cal}^2 =\sum \frac{(O_i -E_i)}{E_i}

Where O represent the observed values and E the expected values. Replacing the values that we got we have this

\chi_{cal}^2 =\frac{(152-152.0217)^2}{152.0217}+\frac{(33-32.9783)^2}{32.9783}+\frac{(37-36.9783)^2}{36.9783}+\frac{(8-8.0217)^2}{8.0217}=0.000003098+0.00001428+0.00001273+0.0.00005870=0.00008881

Now with the calculated value we can find the degrees of freedom

df=(r-1)(c-1)=(2-1)(2-1)=1 on this case r means the number of rows and c the number of columns.

Now we can calculate the p value

p_v =P(\chi^2 >0.00008881)=0.9925

On this case the pvalue is a very large value and that indicates that we can fail to reject the null hypothesis of independence. So is plausible that the successive throws are independent.

If a linear system has four equations and seven variables, then it must have infinitely many solutions. True or False
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The statement is False.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

If a linear system has four equations and seven variables, then it must have infinitely many solutions.

We need to determine the above statement is true or false.

The above statement is false, it could be inconsistent, and therefore have no solutions,

For example:

x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4 +x_5+x_6+x_7=0\\x_1+x_2+x_3 =1\\x_4 +x_5 =1\\x_6+ x_7=1

Hence, there is no solution.
