Call the measure of one angle n. The other angle, which is seventeen times as big as n, measures 17n.


Since the angles are supplementary, their measures must add to 180°. Set up an equation and solve for n.


n

+  

17

n

=  180°


18

n

=  180°


18

n

÷  18

=  

180°  ÷  18


n

=  10°



The first angle measures 10°. Now plug in n = 10° to find the measure of the other angle, 17n.


17

n

=  

17  ×  10°


=  170°



So, the two angles measure 10° and 170°.

Supplementary angles are two angles that when add equal 180 degrees.
The supplement of an angle is 180 - n.

n = 17(180 - n)
n = 3060 - 17n
n + 17n = 3060
18n = 3060
n = 3060/18
n = 170

so the unknown angle (n) = 170 degrees and its supplement = (180 - 170 = 10)......= 10 degrees.

Ana wrote four statements to describe circle S. Statements: AB is a diameter. ST , SP and SQ are radii. SQ = 12 cm PQ = 12 cm Ar
wel

<em><u>Two</u></em> of the four statements that Ana wrote are <em><u>correct</u></em>. Number 1, "AB is a diameter" is incorrect, and so is number 3, "SQ = 12 cm". AB is not a diameter because it is instead a chord. "ST , SP and SQ are radii" is correct because they are straight lines from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle, which is the exact definition of radius. The third statemet is incorrect because since ST is a radius and it equals 6, that means all radii are equal to 6. SQ is a radius of circle S, so it should also equal 6, not 12. The last statement is correct because PQ is a diameter of circle S. By rule, the diameter is always equal to double of the radius. The radius is 6, so 6 x 2= 12.

Chicken eggs can be categorized as large if they weigh at least 2 ounces. Clare weighs 48 large eggs and finds that they have a
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

0.08 ounces is interpreted as the Mean Absolute Deviation and this means that

the various weights of each of the 48 eggs deviates from the mean of the egg (2.1 ounces)by 0.08 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean Absolute Deviation of a data set is defined as the distance or the deviation between a given data set and the calculated mean.

Mean Absolute Deviation tells us about how much a data set varies from it's mean.

From the above question, we are told that after weighing 48 eggs we have a mean of 2.1 ounces and mean deviation of 0.08 ounces

Therefore this means that the various weights of each of the 48 eggs deviates from the mean of the egg (2.1 ounces)by 0.08 ounces

Arthur borrowed $2,100 from the bank. 3 years later, Arthur owes the bank $2,478. What was the percentage rate of simple interes
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Percentage Rate=6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total borrowed=$2,100

Time=3 years

Rate=?

Total amount owed after 3 years= total borrowed + simple interest

$2,478=$2,100 + x

X=$2,478 - $2,100

=$378

The simple interest=$378

Simple interest=P×R×T

Where,

P= principal=$2,100

R=Rate=?

T=Time=3 years

Simple interest=$378

Simple interest=P×R×T/100

$378=$2,100×R×3/100

$378=$6,300R/100

$378=$63R

R=$378/$63

R=6

Therefore,

Rate=6%

The caller times at a customer service center has an exponential distribution with an average of 22 seconds. Find the probabilit
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected call time will be less than 30 seconds is 0.7443.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the caller times at a customer service center has an exponential distribution with an average of 22 seconds.

Let X = caller times at a customer service center

The probability distribution (pdf) of the exponential distribution is given by;

f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x} ; x > 0

Here, \lambda = exponential parameter

Now, the mean of the exponential distribution is given by;

Mean =  \frac{1}{\lambda}  

So,  22=\frac{1}{\lambda}  ⇒ \lambda=\frac{1}{22}

SO, X ~ Exp(\lambda=\frac{1}{22})  

To find the given probability we will use cumulative distribution function (cdf) of the exponential distribution, i.e;

    P(X\leq x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}  ; x > 0

Now, the probability that a randomly selected call time will be less than 30 seconds is given by = P(X < 30 seconds)

        P(X < 30)  =  1 - e^{-\frac{1}{22} \times 30}

                         =  1 - 0.2557

                         =  0.7443
