There are 24 (2x8+2x4) posts around the pool with 4 overlaps, therefore, there are 20 posts in total.
Among the 8 posts along one side, there are 7 gaps in between them. Hence, the length is 2x7=14yards
Among the 4 posts on the other side, there are 3 gaps in between them. Hence, the width is 2x3=6 yards

Quadrilateral CAMP below is a rhombus. the length PQ is (x+2) units, and the length of QA is (3x-14) units. Which statements bes
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

<h3>Q cuts the diagonal PA into 2 equal halves, since the diagonals of rhombus meet at right angles.</h3><h3>The value of x is 8.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Quadrilateral CAMP below is a rhombus. the length PQ is (x+2) units, and the length of QA is (3x-14) units

From the given Q is the middle point, which cut the diagonal PA into 2 equal halves.

By the definition of rhombus, diagonals meet at right angles.

Implies that PQ = QA

x+2 = 3x - 14

x-3x=-14-2

-2x=-16

2x = 16

dividing by 2 on both sides, we will get,

x =\frac{16}{2}

<h3>∴ x=8</h3><h3>Since Q cuts the diagonal PA into 2 equal halves, since the diagonals of rhombus meet at right angles we can equate x+2 = 3x-14 to find the value of x.</h3>

The line segment \overrightarrow{PA}=\overrightarrow{PQ}+\overrightarrow{QA}

\overrightarrow{PA}=x+2+3x-14

=4x-12

=4(8)-12 ( since x=8)

=32-12

=20

<h3>∴ \overrightarrow{PA}=20 units</h3>

To a survey of 290 newspaper reader, 181
astra-53 [7]

Question:

To a survey of 290 newspaper readers, 181 of them read the Daily Times, 142 Read the Guardian 117 read punch and each reads at least one of the three papers if 75 read the Daily Times, and the Guardian, 60 read the Daily Times and punch, and 54 read the Guardian and punch : Draw a Venn diagram to illustrate this information How many readers read All three papers ,Exactly two of the papers The Guardian alone?

Answer:

39 read all three news papers,72 Exactly two Papers & 52 reads  Guardian Alone

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given, A survey of 290 newspaper readers.

Who read the Daily times A=181  

Who read the Guardian times B=142  

Who read the punch C=117

Who read Daily Times and the Guardian A\cap B= 75

Who read Daily Times and the punch A\cap C=60

Who read Guardian and punch B\cap C=54

To find :

How many readers read All three papers, Exactly two of the papers The Guardian alone?

Solution :

Readers read all three papers is A\cap B\cap C

Total survey is given by,

Total = A+B + C- A\cap B- A\cap C - B\cap C+ A\cap B\cap C

290 = 181 + 142 + 117 - 75 -60 - 54 +A\cap B\cap C

290 =251+A\cap B\cap C

290-251=A\cap B\cap C

A\cap B\cap C=39

So, number of readers who read all three papers is 39.

Exactly two of the papers = 36 + 21 + 15 = 72

Guardian Alone = 52

For the diagram below figure b is a reflection of y=2x of the line y =x
Scilla [17]
The equation of the line would be y = (1/2)x.

To find the equation of a line that is reflected through the line y = x, we just switch the x and y. Then, solve for y.

y = 2x
x = 2y
0.5x = y

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Probability Problems.

Based on the study that Shane conducted we can assume a couple of things. Firstly, we can see that a vast majority of shoppers are buying products they saw advertised, so we can assume that advertising a product directly affects and contributes to the sales of that particular product.

Secondly, we can tell from the study that the number 1 method for advertising products is the Internet. Since 70% of all the interviewed shoppers are buying a product they saw on the internet.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

A poll conducted a week before the school election to the student council showed that Janice would win with 63% of the vote. The
k0ka [10]

OPTIONS:

No, because she could receive as low as 14% of the vote.

No, because she could receive as low as 49% of the vote.

Yes, because she could receive as much as 77% of the vote.

Yes, because the poll stated that she will win with 63% of the vote.

Answer:

No, because she could receive as low as 49% of the vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Poll suggestion = 63%

Margin of Error (E) = 14%

This means that; the range or interval in which the vote obtained could fall would be ;

Poll suggestion ± margin of Error

63% ± 14%

Lower bound attainable = (63% - 14%) = 49%

Upper bound attainable = (63% + 14%) = 77%

Since, winning actually requires obtaining atleast half of the votes (that is 50%) ; and suggested poll suggested votes could fall as low as 49% ; then Janice can't be so confident of victory.
