Answer:

See the attached figure for better explanation :

Step-by-step explanation :

1. By the unique line postulate, you can draw only one line segment : <u>BC</u>

Since only one line can be drawn between two distinct points.

2. Using the definition of <u>reflection</u>, reflect BC over l.

To find line segment which reflects BC over l, we will use the definition of reflection.

3. By the definition of reflection, C is the image of itself and <u>A</u> is the image of B.

Definition of reflection says the figure about a line is transformed to form the mirror image. Now, CD is perpendicular bisector of AB so A and B are equidistant from D forming the mirror image of each other.

4. Since reflections preserve <u>length</u>, AC = BC

In Reflection the figure is transformed to form a mirror image, Hence the length will be preserved in case of reflection.

Answer:

Approximately, 159 men weighs more than 165 pounds and 159 men weighs less than 135 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 150 pounds

Standard Deviation, σ = 15

We are given that the distribution of weights of 1000 men is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

P( men weighing more than 165 pounds)

P(x > 165)

$P( x > 165) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{165 - 150}{15}) = P(z > 1)$

$= 1 - P(z \leq 1)$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(x > 165) = 1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587 = 15.87\%$

Approximately, 159 men weighs more than 165 pounds.

P(men weighing less than 135 pounds)

P(x < 135)

$P( x < 135) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{135 - 150}{15}) = P(z < -1)$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(x < 135) = 0.1587 = 15.87\%$

Approximately, 159 men weighs less than 135 pounds.

A trapezoid has a base of 4.5 inches, a height of 6 inches, and an area of 21 square inches. The equation below can be used to d

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$b_2 = -2.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{1}{2}(4.5 + b_2) * 6 = 21$

Required

Determine the value of T

$\frac{1}{2}(4.5 + b_2) * 6 = 21$

Multiply both sides by 2

$2 * \frac{1}{2}(4.5 + b_2) * 6 = 21 * 2$

$(4.5 + b_2) * 6 = 42$

Divide through by 6

$4.5 + b_2 = 42/6``$

$4.5 + b_2 = 7$

$b_2 = 7 - 4.5$

$b_2 = -2.5$

For which function does f decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

$f(x) = 0.85^{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function that decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1 is given by:

$f(x) = {(1 - 0.15)}^{x}$

We simplify the parenthesis to get:

$f(x) = 0.85^{x}$

Therefore the decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1 is

$f(x) = {0.85}^{x}$

The second choice is correct.

The first task of the Segment Two Honors Project is to select the Power Pill study participants’ groups and research board offic

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Part 1: There are 4.7*10^21 ways to select 40 volunteers in subgroups of 10

Part 2: The research board can be chosen in 32760 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

The number of ways in which we can organized n elements into k groups with size n1, n2,...nk is calculate as:

$\frac{ n!}{ n1!*n2!*...*nk! }$

So, in this case we can form 4 subgroups with 10 participants each one, replacing the values of:

n by 40 participants
k by 4 groups
n1, n2, n3 and n4 by 10 participants of every subgroups

We get:

$\frac{ 40!}{10!*10!*10!*10!} = 4.7*10^{21}$

Part 2:

The number of ways in which we can choose k element for a group of n elements and the order in which they are chose matters is calculate with permutation as:

$nPk = \frac{ n!}{(n-k)!}$

So in this case there are 4 offices in the research board, those are director, assistant director, quality control analyst and correspondent. Additionally this 4 offices are going to choose from a group of 5 doctors.

Therefore, replacing values of:

n by 15 doctors
k by 4 offices

We get:

$\frac{ 15!}{ (15-4)! } = 32760$

The orbital period, P, of a planet and the planet's distance from the sun, a, in astronomical units is related by the formula P

anygoal [31]

Answer:

a for saturn is 9.55 astronomical units

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the distance from the sun.

Mathematically, from the question;

P = a^3/2

29.5 = a^3/2

a = 29.5^2/3

a = [3√(29.5)]^2

a = 9.55 in astronomical units
