Answer:

∠A = 26°

Explanation:

If two angles of a triangle have measures equal to the measures of two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. In case of similar triangle, corresponding angles are congruent.

Angle ∠C = 76

So, ∠T = 76 because of corresponding angle.

Given that,

m∠S=3(m∠A)

We know that,

∠S ≅ ∠B

That means ∠B = 3 (∠A)

Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

∠A + 3∠A + 76° = 180°

4∠A = 180° - 76°

4∠A = 104°

∠A = $\frac{104}{4}$

∠A = 26°

Final answer.

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

220 N * m or 220 J

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the work formula would be the applied force multiplied by the distance traveled, that is:

W = F * d

In this case the F is 200 N and the distance is 1.1 meters, therefore we replace:

W = 200 * 1.1

W = 220 N * m = 220 J

Therefore the work carried out by Clarissa and her mom is 200 joules.

Which sequence could be partially defined by the recursive formula f (n + 1) = f(n) + 2.5 for n ≥ 1?

horrorfan [7]

Option C: –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, … is the sequence that could be partially defined by the recursive formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$

Explanation:

The given recursive formula is $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ for $n\geq 1$ and $f(1)=-10$

We need to determine the sequence.

The sequence can be determined by substituting n = 1, 2, 3, 4,....

2nd term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 1 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(1+1)=f(1)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(2)=-10+2.5=-7.5$

Thus, the 2nd term of the sequence is -7.5

3rd term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 2 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(2+1)=f(2)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(3)=-7.5+2.5=-5$

Thus, the 3rd term of the sequence is -5

4th term of the sequence:

Substituting n = 3 in the formula $f(n+1)=f(n)+2.5$ , we get,

$f(3+1)=f(3)+2.5$

Simplifying, we have,

$f(4)=-5+2.5=-2.5$

Thus, the 4th term of the sequence is -2.5

Therefore, the sequence is –10, –7.5, –5, –2.5, …

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

Suppose you are told that a distribution is said to be approximately normal because outliers have skewed the data. List the poss

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Outline are values which are entirely different from those remaining values in a data set. These extreme values can skew an approximately normal distribution by skewing the distribution in the direction of the outliers and this makes it difficult for the data set to be analyzed.

Its effect is such that the mean becomes extremely sensitive to extreme outliers making it possible that the mean is this not a representative of the population and this theoretically affects the standard deviation.
