a polygon of 100 sides has all possible drawn from a chosen vertex to the others. how many triangles are formed

Mathematics

Hoochie [10]2 years ago

7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

for a 4 sided polygon you can only draw one diagonal from one vertex so it forms 2 triangles.

For 5 sides you get 3 triangles

For 6 sides - 4

For 7 sides - 5

For 8 sides - 6

Looks like we get 2 less triangles than the number of sides in the polygon

Answer for 100 sides is 98 triangles.

The number of species n found on islands typically increases with the area of the island A. Suppose that this relationship is su

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

$n(A) = n_1A^k$

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking into account that the growth rate of the number of species on the island is proportional to the density of species (number of species between area of the island), a model based on a differential equation is proposed:

$\frac{dn}{dA} = k\frac{n}{A}$

This differential equation can be solved by the method of separable variables like this:

$\frac{dn}{n} = k\frac{dA}{A}$ with what you get:

$\int\ {\frac{dn}{n}}\ = k\int\ {\frac{dA}{A}}$

$ln|n| = kln|A|+C$ . Taking exponentials on both sides of the equation:

$e^{ln|n|} = e^{ln|A|^{k}+C}$

$n(A) = e^{C}A^{k}$

how do you have to $n (1) = n_1$ , then

$n(A) = n_1A^k$

Use the values on the number line to find the sampling error.

pantera1 [17]

Part 1:

Given a number line with the point $\bar{x}=3.8$ and the point $\mu=4.27$

The sampling error is given by:

$\bar{x}-\mu=3.8-4.27=-0.47$

Part 2:

Given a number line with the point $\bar{x}=26.43$ and the point $\mu=24.67$

The sampling error is given by:

$\bar{x}-\mu=26.43-24.67=1.76$

Answer:

The probability that Albert's sample of 64 will have a mean between 13.5 and 16.5 minutes is 0.9973.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Let X the random variable that represent interest on this case, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(\mu=15,\sigma=4)$
