It can't be for sure a perpendicular bisector cuz you don't know what kind of triangle you are dealing with so that one's out.  It's not necessarily an angle bisector either for the same reason. A median means that PS will go through the opposite side right in the center, and again, depending upon what type of triangle you have, this could be true...So it is an altitude, which is like a height of a triangle. It drops down from a vertex and forms a right angle with wherever it goes through. So D.

Automobile mechanics conduct diagnostic tests on 150 new cars of a particular make and model to determine the extent to which th
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

99% Confidence interval: (0.185,0.375)                                                  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 150

Number of cars that have faulty catalytic converters, x = 42

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{42}{150} = 0.28

99% Confidence interval:

\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.01} = \pm 2.58

Putting the values, we get:

0.28\pm 2.58(\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{150}}) = 0.28\pm 0.095\\\\=(0.185,0.375)

The​ 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of new cars with faulty catalytic converters is​ (0.185,0.375)

What is the solution to this system of equations? Y= 2x - 3.5 x - 2y = -14
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

x=7

y=10.5


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can apply the method of substitution, as you can see below:

- Substitute y=2x-3.5 into the other equation and solve fo x:

x-2(2x-3.5)=-14\\x-4x+7=-14\\x=7

- Substitute the value of x obtain into the first equation, then the value of y is:

y=2(7)-3.5\\y=10.5

a group of girls bought 72 rainbow hairbands ,144 brown and black hairbands and 216 bright colored hairbands .what is the larges
Nitella [24]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

We are assuming that all girls in the group bought the same number of items.

Therefore, we need to find the highest common factor of 72, 144 and 216.

HCF

72 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

144 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

216 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 3

The product of the emboldened numbers is the highest common factor.

That is:

2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 = 72

Therefore, the largest possible number of girls in the group is 72.

Zoe has 5 pounds of potatos she has multiple recipes that require 3/4 pound of potatoes how many recipes will she be able to mak
Natali [406]
Amount of potatoes that Zoe has = 5 pounds
Quantity of potatoes that Zoe need for each recipe = 5/(3/4) 
                                                                                 = 5 * (4/3) 
                                                                                 = 20/3 
                                                                                 = 6 2/3 
From the above deduction, we can conclude that only 6 recipes can be made. The remaining amount of 2/3 will remain unused. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
