Refer to the diagram below.

Because ray NP bisects ∠MNQ, therefore
∠MNP = ∠PNQ = 2x + 1.
Therefore
∠MNQ = 2*∠PNQ = 2(2x + 1) = 4x + 2.

Because ∠MNQ is given as x² - 10, therefore
x² - 10 = 4x + 2
x² - 4x - 12 = 0
(x + 2 )(x - 6) = 0
x = -2, or x = 6

When x = -2, 
∠MNQ = 4*(-2) + 2 = -6°
This answer is not acceptablle, therefore x = -2 should be rejected.

When x = 6,
∠MNQ = 4*6 + 2 = 26°

Answer: x = 6, and ∠MNQ = 26°

Problem 5 (4+4+4=12) We roll two fair 6-sided dice. Each one of the 36 possible outcomes is assumed to be equally likely. 1) Fin
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

1

p(b) =  \frac{1}{6}

2

p(k) =  \frac{1}{3}

3

P(a) =  \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally when two fair 6-sided dice is rolled the doubles are

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

The total outcome of doubles is N = 6

The total outcome of the rolling the two fair 6-sided dice is

n = 36

Generally the probability that doubles (i.e., having an equal number on the two dice) were rolled is mathematically evaluated as

p(b) =  \frac{N}{n}

p(b) =  \frac{6}{36}

p(b) =  \frac{1}{6}

Generally when two fair 6-sided dice is rolled the outcome whose sum is 4 or less is

(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 1), (2, 2), (3, 1)

Looking at this outcome we see that there are two doubles present

So

The conditional probability that doubles were rolled is mathematically represented as

p(k) =  \frac{2}{6}

p(k) =  \frac{1}{3}

Generally when two fair 6-sided dice is rolled the number of outcomes that would land on different numbers is L = 30

And the number of outcomes that at least one die is a 1 is W = 10

So

The conditional probability that at least one die is a 1 is mathematically represented as

P(a) =  \frac{W}{L}

=> P(a) =  \frac{10}{30}

=> P(a) =  \frac{1}{3}

A town has a population of 2000 and grows at 2% every year. To the nearest year, how long will it be until the population will r
MissTica

Answer:

21 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the equation 2000(1.02)^{x} = 3000 where x is the number of years passed.

Once you've solved for it, x=20.475319. Although it's closer to 20 years to the nearest year, it's 21 years since you'll wont reach 3000 in year 20.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

3,4,5 are congruent angles

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent Angles have the same angle (in degrees or radians). That is all. They don't have to point in the same direction. They don't have to be on similar sized lines.

In 2003, the owl population P in a park was measured to be 340. By 2007, the population was measured again to be 285. The popula
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

y = -13.75x + 340

120 owls in 2019

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population in a future year, use the formula y=mx+b since it changes linearly.

So over 4 years the owl population changed from 285-340=-55. Divide by 4 and this is a yearly change of -13.75. This is m.

The y-intercept is the starting point known as b in the equation. Here it is 340.

So the equation is y=-13.75x+340.

In 2019, t=16 so y=-13.75(16)+340 = 120.
