The first three you should check off because the man lost less so the last few questions would be wrong

It would be the first three because Jorge does not have a greater percentage

circle o is inscribed in triangle rst such that it is tangent at points m,n, and p. if rp is 7, rt is 17 and sm is 5, then what
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The length of side st is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent is a straigth line that touches a circle externally at a point on the circumference. Considering one of its properties that tangents from the same point to a fixed point outside a circle are equal.

Then,

     /rn/ = /rp/

    /tm/ = /tn/

   /sm/ = /sp/

But, /rp/ = 7, /rt/ = 17 and /sm/ = 5.

Then,

 /rt/ = /rn/ + /tn/

17 = 7 + /tn/ (∵ /rp/ = /rn/ = 7)

⇒ /tn/ = 10

Since /nt/ = 10, then /tm/ = 10 (/tm/ = /nt/)

So that,

 /st/ = /sm/ + /tm/

     = 5 +10

 /st/ = 15

The length of side st is 15.

Katarina bought a package of 500 stickers. Each sheet in the package has 20 stickers.
Mashcka [7]
I think there are 125 heart stickers and 375 star stickers. 20/4 = 5, so there are 5 heart stickers per sheet. there are 25 sheets in the package, 5 x 25 = 125. if the remaining stickers on a sheet are stars then there are 15 star stickers per sheet. 15 x 25 = 375.

Which will result in a difference of squares? (negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x + 4) (negative 7 x + 4)(4 minus 7 x) (negative 7 x
nevsk [136]

Answer:

(negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x minus 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider two real numbers a and b. A difference of squares involving a and b is usually given as;

a^{2}-b^{2}

The difference of the two squares above can be factored to yield;

(a-b)(a+b)

This implies that in order to have the difference of squares we must have a product involving the difference and the sum of the numbers.

The expression;

(negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x minus 4) can also be written as ( 4 - 7x) ( -4 - 7x)

( 4 - 7x) ( -4 - 7x) = ( 4 - 7x) (-1( 4 + 7x)) = -1 *( 4 - 7x) ( 4 + 7x)

Expanding the last expression yields;

-1 (16 + 28x -28x - 49x^2) = -1 (16 - 49x^2) = 49x^2 - 16 which is in deed a difference of squares

The heights of 1000 students are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of
yuradex [85]
A. The mean and standard deviation.

The mean of a sampling distribution is approximately equal to the mean of the population. Given that the mean of the population is equal to 174.5, the mean of the sampling distribution is also this value.

The standard deviation of a sample distribution is equal to,

                u(m) = u/sqrt n

Substituting the known values,

               u(m) = 6.9 / sqrt 25 = 1.38

b. Get the z-score of both items,
         
      z-score = (data point - mean) / standard deviation

 z-score of 172.5
     z-score = (172.5 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.49
This translates to 0.068.

z-score of 175.8
   z-score = (175.8 - 174.5) / 1.38 = 0.94
This translates to 0.83. 

The difference between the two z-scores is 0.762. 

 The number of samples with this height is 0.762(200) which is equal to approximately 152.

c. z-score of 172 centimeters
   
    z-score = (172 - 174.5) / 1.38
  
    z-score = -1.81
This translates to 0.03.

The number of people with this height from the sample is (0.03)(200) = 6

The scores of eighth-grade students in a math test are normally distributed with a mean of 57.5 and a standard deviation of 6.5.
Anna11 [10]
Approximately 68% of a normal distribution lies within one standard deviation of the mean, so this corresponds to students with scores between (57.5 - 6.5, 57.5 + 6.5) = (51, 64)
