The proof that ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS is shown. Given: ΔMNQ is isosceles with base MQ, and NR and MQ bisect each other at S. Prove: ΔMNS ≅

ΔQNS
We know that ΔMNQ is isosceles with base MQ. So, MN ≅ QN by the definition of isosceles triangle. The base angles of the isosceles triangle, ∠NMS and ∠NQS, are congruent by the isosceles triangle theorem. It is also given that NR and MQ bisect each other at S. Segments_____are therefore congruent by the definition of bisector. Thus, ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS by SAS.

Answer:

The correct option is MS and QS

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ΔMNQ is isosceles with base MQ, and NR and MQ bisect each other at S. we have to prove that ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS.

As NR and MQ bisect each other at S

⇒ segments MS and SQ are therefore congruent by the definition of bisector i.e   MS=SQ

In ΔMNS and ΔQNS

MN=QN       (∵ MNQ is isosceles triangle)

∠NMS=∠NQS     (∵ MNQ is isosceles triangle)

MS=SQ         (Given)

By SAS rule, ΔMNS ≅ ΔQNS.

Hence, segments MS and SQ are therefore congruent by the definition of bisector.

The correct option is MS and QS

zlopas [31]
Let x be the number of hours of nagging groceries spent by Ethan. With this representation, the number of hours for moving lawns will be x + 10. The equation that would let us solve this item is,

                6x + 7.50(x + 10) = 129

The value of x from the equation is 4. Thus, the number of hours spent for moving lawns is 14 hours.

Answer:

a. 0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard error of the mean is the standard deviation of the population divided by the square root of the sample size.

In this problem, we have that:

Standard deviation of the population: 6 hours

Sample size: 144

Square root of 144 is 12.

So the standard error of the sample mean is 6/12 = 0.5.

A businessman bought a car dealership that is incurring a loss of $500,000 a year. He decided to strategize in order to turn the
UkoKoshka [18]
The correct answer would be choice A: 1.

When 3 coins are flipped, there are 8 possible outcomes.

0 Tails = 1 ways
1 Tails = 3 ways
2 Tails = 3 ways
3 Tails = 1 ways

If you add up all the different tails, you could get 12 tails. Divide 12 by 8 and you have 1.5 which is the average number of tails you could expect to get by flipping 3 coins.

Suppose you roll a pair of honest dice. If you roll a total of 7 you win $22, if you roll a total of 11 you win $66, if you roll
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The expected payoff for this game is -$1.22.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a pair of honest dice is rolled.

Possible outcomes for a dice = 1,2,3,4,5,6

Two dices are rolled then the total number of outcomes = 6 × 6 = 36.

\{(1,1),(1,2),(1,3),(1,4),(1,5),(1,6),(2,1),(2,2),(2,3),(2,4),(2,5),(2,6),\\(3,1),(3,2),(3,3),(3,4),(3,5),(3,6),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(4,4),(4,5),(4,6),\\(5,1),(5,2),(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(5,6),(6,1),(6,2),(6,3),(6,4),(6,5),(6,6)\}

The possible ways of getting a total of 7,

{ (1,6), (2,5), (3,4), (4,3), (5,2), (6,1) }

Number of favorable outcomes = 7

Formula for probability:

Probability=\frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

So, the possibility of getting a total of 7 = \frac{6}{36}=\frac{1}{6}

The possible ways of getting a total of 11,

{(5,6), (6,5)}

So, the probability of getting a total of 11 = \frac{2}{36} = \frac{1}{18}

Now, other possible rolls = 36 - 6 - 2 = 36 - 8 = 28,

So, the probability of getting the sum of numbers other than 7 or 11 = \frac{28}{36} = \frac{7}{9}

Since, for the sum of 7, $ 22 will earn, for the sum of 11, $ 66 will earn while for any other total loss is $11,

Hence, the expected value for this game is

\frac{1}{6}\times 22+\frac{1}{18}\times 66-\frac{7}{9}\times 11

\frac{11}{3}+\frac{11}{3}-\frac{77}{9}

\frac{22}{3}-\frac{77}{9}

\frac{66-77}{9}

-\frac{11}{9}

-1.22

Therefore the expected payoff for this game is -$1.22.
