Answer: The value of x is 20° and the measurement of angle B is 150°.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the angle measurements in the figure are represented by the following expressions :

$m\angle A=8x-10^\circ,~~~m\angle B=3x+90^\circ.$

We are to solve for the value of x and then for the measurement of angle B.

We can see in the figure that

the two lines are parallel and they cut by a transversal.

Therefore,

$m\angle A=m\angle B~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\textup{[alternate interior angles]}\\\\\Rightarrow 8x-10^\circ=3x+90^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow 8x-3x=90^\circ+10^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=100^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{100^\circ}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow x=20^\circ.$

And, the measurement of B will be

$m\angle B=3x+90^\circ=3\times 20^\circ+90^\circ=60^\circ+90^\circ=150^\circ.$

Thus, the value of x is 20° and the measurement of angle B is 150°.

The rejection region is give by

$|z_{test}|\ \textgreater \ z_{\alpha/2}$

where the test statistics is given by

$\frac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} = \frac{980-1000}{100/\sqrt{75}} \\ \\ = \frac{-20}{100/8.6603} = \frac{-20}{11.5470} =-1.73$

i.e. $|z_{test}|=|-1.73|=1.73$

Thus, $z_{\alpha/2}=1.73$

Using the statistical table, the level of the test is 0.04.

Dependent and independent variables. ... The dependent variables represent the output or outcome whose variation is being studied. The independent variables, also known in a statistical context as regressors, represent inputs or causes, that is, potential reasons for variation.

An independent variable is a variable that is manipulated to determine the value of a dependent variable s. The dependent variable is what is being measured in an experiment or evaluated in a mathematical equation and the independent variables are the inputs to that measurement.

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

$P (Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the probability that the 35 cars are loaded onto the ferry. Therefore:

Since

μ=1.8 and σ=0.5 we have:

P(X<35 )=P ( X−μ<35−1.8 )=P((X−μ)/σ<(35−1.8)/0.5)

Since

(x−μ)/σ=Z and

$(35-1.8)/0.5=66.4$

we have:

$P (X$

Use the standard normal table to conclude that:

$P (Z$

Natali [406]

Answer:

Contour lines

Step-by-step explanation:

A series of light brown lines drawn at intervals of 50 feet to designate their respective heights above sea level are called CONTOUR lines, or just contour.

A contour line (also called isoline) is a line that indicates points at the same elevation on the map, showing you a representation of the terrain's elevation (hills, mountains, canyons and so on). You will find those lines on specialized maps, like topographic maps, which are different than road maps.
