m□ebd=4 x-8 and m□ebc=5 x+20

This is solvable only if e b is the initial side and b d and b c lies on opposite side of each other and lies on a line i.e c,b,d are Collinear.

∠ebd and ∠ebc will form a linear pair.The meaning of linear pair is that angles forming on one side of a straight line through a common vertex which are adjacent is 180°.

i.e

∠ ebd + ∠ebc = 180°

4 x- 8 + 5x + 20= 180°

adding like terms

⇒ 9 x +12 =180°

⇒ 9 x = 180° - 12

⇒ 9 x = 168°

⇒ x =( 168/9)°=(56/3)°

now  m□ebc =5 x +20

       = 5 × 56/3 + 20

       = 280/3 + 20

      =340/3

m□ebc=( 340/3)°

So, solution set is x =(56/3)° and  m□ebc =(340/3)°

A 16-inch candle is lit and burns at a constant rate of 0.8 inches per hour. Let t represent the number of hours since the candl
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

<h2>See the explanation.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

The initial length of the candle is 16 inch. It also given that, it burns with a constant rate of 0.8 inch per hour.

After one hour since the candle was lit, the length of the candle will be (16 - 0.8) = 15.2 inch.

After two hour since the candle was lit, the length of the candle will be (15.2 - 0.8) = 14.4 inch. The length of the candle after two hours can also be represented by {16 - 2(0.8)}.

Hence, the length of the candle after t hours when it was lit can be represented by the function, f(t) = 16 - 0.8t. f(t) = 0 at t = 20.

b.

The domain of the function is 0 to 20.

c.

The range is 0 to 16.

Past studies indicate that about 60 percent of the trees in a forested region are classified as softwood. A botanist studying th
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

1. If it is true that 60 percent of the trees in a forested region are classified as softwood, 0.015 is the probability of obtaining a population proportion greater than 0.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The historical information indicates that 60% of the forest trees are classified as softwood.

A botanist thinks that the proportion might be greater than 60%, so he tested his belief obtaining:

H₀: p = 0.60

H₁: p > 0.60

p-value: 0.015

You need to interpret this p-value. Little reminder:

The p-value is defined as the probability corresponding to the calculated statistic if possible under the null hypothesis. It represents the % of size n samples from a population with proportion p=p₀, which will produce a measure that provides evidence as (or stronger) than the current sample that p is not equal to p₀.

The correct answer is:

1. If it is true that 60 percent of the trees in a forested region are classified as softwood, 0.015 is the probability of obtaining a population proportion greater than 0.6.

I hope this helps!

Terrence walks at a pace of 2mi/h to the theater and watches a movie for 2 h and 15 min. He rides back home, taking the same rou
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the theater is 6.7 mi from home

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

speed 1 = 2 mi/h

time in theater = 2h 15 min

speed 2 = 40 mi/h

time = 3.5 h

Process

1.- Write the formula to calculate speed

             speed = distance / time

-Solve for time

             time = speed x time

2.- Write and equation to solve this problem

      total time = time from home to theater + time from theater to home

3.- Substitution

      3.5 = d/2 + d/40

4.- Solve for d

      3.5 = (20d + d) / 40

      140 = 21d

      d = 140 / 21

      d = 6.7 mi

Assume that a fair die is rolled. The sample space is , 1, 2, 3, 4, 56, and all the outcomes are equally likely. Find P8. Expres
liraira [26]

Answer:

P\left(8\right)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that a fair die is rolled.

  • The sample space is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and all the outcomes are equally likely.

Let  X  be the set of all possible outcomes. Let  A  be an outcome.

So, the probability that  A  occurs is:

                                                        P\left(A\right)=\frac{|A|}{|X|}

As the set of all possible outcomes of the roll of a single die is:

X=\left\{1,2,3,4,5,6\right\}

Observe that

|X|=6

Here  

|A|=0   because 8 is not in the set sample space. So, the outcome of occurring the number 8 is not possible from the all possible outcomes.

So, the probability must be zero.

In other words,

                        P\left(A\right)=\frac{|A|}{|X|}

                         P\left(8\right)=\frac{0}{6}=0

Therefore,

                   P\left(8\right)=0
