Hi! So when you are dividing or multiplying a decimal by 10, it becomes a lot easier than it looks. If you divide by 10, you move the decimal to the left one space. If you multiply the decimal by 10, you move the decimal to the right one space. Because you are diving 12.5 by 10, you move the decimal to the left one space, which then becomes 1.25. So, Lauren has run 1.25 miles. If you want to double check, you can multiply 1.25 by 10, which comes out to 12.5. Your answer is 1.25! Hope this helps!!

Carlos is using the distributive property to evaluate the expression 14 (49) by using friendlier numbers. His work is shown belo
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The 1st error that Carlos made was in Step 2...

In step 2 , Carlos multiplied 14 only with 40. If he would have multiplied 14 with both 40 & 9 , then it could have been alright.....

The figure below shows a parallelogram ABCD. Side AB is parallel to side DC and side AD is parallel to side BC: A quadrilateral
il63 [147K]
The postulate that is used in order to prove the congruency of the triangles is the ASA which means (Angle – Side – Angle). The property that is applicable for the congruency of DB to itself is the reflexive property. Therefore, the answer to this item is the second choice. 
 Hope I helped! :)

For ΔABC, ∠A = 4x - 10, ∠B = 5x + 10, and ∠C = 7x + 20. If ΔABC undergoes a dilation by a scale factor of 1 3 to create ΔA'B'C'
VLD [36.1K]
We know that the angles of a triangle sum to 180°.  For ΔABC, this means we have:
(4x-10)+(5x+10)+(7x+20)=180

Combining like terms,
16x+20=180

Subtracting 20 from both sides:
16x=160

Dividing both sides by 16:
x=10
This means ∠A=4*10-10=40-10=30°; ∠B=5*10+10=50+10=60°; and ∠C=7*10+20=70+20=90.

For ΔA'B'C', we have
(2x+10)+(8x-20)+(10x-10)=180

Combining like terms, 
20x-20=180

Adding 20 to both sides:
20x=200

Dividing both sides by 20:
x=10

This gives us ∠A'=2*10+10=20+10=30°; ∠B'=8*10-20=80-20=60°; and ∠C'=10*10-10=100-10=90°.

Since the angle are all congruent, ΔABC~ΔA'B'C' by AAA.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Yes the sample can be use to make inference

Step-by-step explanation:

The inference is possible if the conditions:

p*n > 10      and   q*n > 10

where p and q are the proportion probability of success and q = 1 - p

n is sample size

Then   p = 12 / 30  = 0,4         q =  1 - 0,4    q  =  0,6

And  p*n  =  0,4 * 30  = 12            12 > 10

And  q*n  = 0,6 * 30   = 18            18 > 10

Therefore with that sample the conditions to approximate the binomial distribution to a Normal distribution are met

It is known that 70% of the customers in a sporting goods store purchase a pair of running shoes. a random sample of 25 customer
NikAS [45]

Let x be the discrete random variable whose value is the number of successes in n trials.

The probability distribution function for x of the binomial distribution B(n,p) is defined as

B(n,p)= nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}

Given that the random sample size is n=25

let x represent number of customers who purchase running shoes

Let "p" be the probability of customers in a sporting goods store purchase a pair of running shoes.

It is given that 70% of the customers in a sporting goods store purchase a pair of running shoes.

Thus p=\frac{70}{100}=0.7

Thus the Probability distribution of x is given by

P(X=x)= 25C_x(0.7)^x(1-0.7)^{25-x}, where x=0,1,2,3,...,25.
