The probability that the first student is a girl is 5/10.

The probability of the second selection being a boy is 5/9.

(since the first selection was a girl, there are 9 students left) 

The probability that the third student is a girl is 4/8

(there are 4 girls left after one was selected, and 8 students left in total, after the second selection.

The probability is (5/10)(5/9)(4/8)=0.139


Answer: 0.139

Which descriptions from the list below accurately describe the relationship between QRS and TUV? Check all that apply.
valentina_108 [34]

Definition: Triangles are congruent when they have  exactly the same three sides and exactly the same three angles.

From the diagram you have that:

  • m\angle Q=m\angle T=50^{\circ}
  • m\angle R=m\angle U=83^{\circ}
  • m\angle S=m\angle V=47^{\circ}
  • QR=TU=22
  • RS=UV=23
  • QS=TV=30

Triangles QRS and TUV have congruent corresponding sides and congruent corresponding angles. This means they are congruent triangles. Congruent triangles always have the same shape and the same size. Also each pair of congruent triangles is a pair of similar triangles with ratio of similarity equal to 1.

Answer: all choices are correct.

Sociologists want to test whether the number of homeless people in a particular urban area is increasing. In 2010, the average n
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The test statistic value is 15.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis for this test is:

<em>H</em>₀: The average number of homeless people is not increasing, i.e. <em>μ</em> = 42.3.

<em>H</em>ₐ: The average number of homeless people is increasing, i.e. <em>μ</em> > 42.3.

Given:

\bar x=45.3\\\sigma=6.2\\n=1000

As the population standard deviation is provided use a single mean <em>z</em>-test for the hypothesis testing.

The test statistic is:

z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{45.3-42.3}{6.2/\sqrt{1000}}=15.3

Thus, the test statistic value is 15.3.

If tap and bre are supplementary and bre is its own complement, find the measure of tap. explain how you arrived at your answer
Pie
Supplementary angles are those whose sum is equal to 180° while those that are complementary are those whose sum is equal to 90°. Since, we are given that bre is the complement of itself, its measure can be calculated through the equation,
                           m∠bre + m∠bre = 90°
                                   m∠bre = 45°

Then, for the relationship of bre and tap, we have the equation,
                       m∠bre + m∠tap = 180°
                        45° + m∠tap = 180°
                                m∠tap = 135°

The measure of tap is equal to 135°.
