The answer is D because you could use the equation y=mx+b and replace the numbers

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Option D's equation is in slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept form equations are used for linear functions.

Nonlinear functions would have an exponent (that is higher than 1), 'x' as an denominator in a function, or a square/cube root symbol in it's equation.

Option D should be the correct answer.

A bag contains five tokens numbered 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8. Two tokens are taken in succession out of the bag without replacement. A) Create the probability distribution for "x" being the number of odd numbered tokens drawn. B) What is mean and variance of the probability distribution?

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

A) Probability of taken two odd numbered token without replacement:

P(3) = 2/5 = 0.4

P(7) = 1/4 = 0.25

Construct a probability distribution:

 X          3          7

p(X)      0.4      0.25

B) Mean of the probability distribution:

E(X) = ∑xp

E(X) = 3*0.4 + 7*0.25

E(X) = 2.95

Variance of the probability distribution:

V(X) = [tex]\Sigma X^{2}p - [E(X)]^{2}[/tex]

V(X) = [tex]3^{2}*0.4+7^{2}*0.25 - (2.95)^{2}[/tex]

V(X) = 7.1475

Mean and variance of the probability distribution are 2.95 and 7.145, respectively.

If, triangle ABC, the measure of angle B is greater than 90 degrees, and AB=BC, what is a possible measure for angle C in degrees?
A. 35
B. 45
C. 60
D. Can not be determined

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us start with B = 90

That would mean that each of the other 2 angles must add to 90 which makes each of them 45.

But the question doesn't allow that. B has to be greater than 90 which means that the other two angles must be less that 45 each.

the only answer that does that is A

Carmen and Linda share 70 candies. If Carmen gets four more candies than Linda gets, how many candies does Linda get?

Answers

Answer:

linda will get 35 candies

Answer:

Linda gets 33 candies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call Linda's number of sweets x and make an equation for the total number of candies:

70 = 4+ x + x

Then simplify it:

70 = 4 + 2x

We then solve for x ( which is the number of candies Linda gets ):

70 - 4 = 4 + 2x  - 4

66 = 2x

66 ÷ 2 = 2x ÷ 2

33 candies = x ( amount Linda gets )

Addition and Subtraction of like fractions

While performing the addition and subtraction of like fractions, you just have to add or subtract the numerator respectively in which the denominator is retained same.

For example :

Add : [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{1}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{1 + 3}{5} } = \frac{4}{5} [/tex]

Subtract : [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{5}{7} - \frac{4}{7} = \frac{5 - 4}{7} = \frac{3}{7} }[/tex]

So, sum of like fractions : [tex] \mathsf{ = \frac{sum \: of \: their \: number}{common \: denominator} }[/tex]

Difference of like fractions : [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{difference \: of \: their \: numerator}{common \: denominator} }[/tex]

Addition and subtraction of unlike fractions

While performing the addition and subtraction of unlike fractions, you have to express the given fractions into equivalent fractions of common denominator and add or subtract as we do with like fractions. Thus, obtained fractions should be reduced into lowest terms if there are any common on numerator and denominator.

For example:

[tex] \mathsf{add \: \frac{1}{2} \: and \: \frac{1}{3} }[/tex]

L.C.M of 2 and 3 = 6

So, ⇒[tex] \mathsf{ \frac{1 \times 3}{2 \times 3} + \frac{1 \times 2}{3 \times 2} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \mathsf{ \frac{3}{6} + \frac{2}{6} }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \frac{5}{6} [/tex]

Multiplication of fractions

To multiply one fraction by another, multiply the numerators for the numerator and multiply the denominators for its denominator and reduce the fraction obtained after multiplication into lowest term.

When any number or fraction is divided by a fraction, we multiply the dividend by reciprocal of the divisor. Let's consider a multiplication of a whole number by a fraction:

[tex] \mathsf{4 \times \frac{3}{2} = \frac{4 \times 3}{2} = \frac{12}{2} = 6}[/tex]

Multiplication for [tex] \mathsf{ \frac{6}{5} \: and \: \frac{25}{3} }[/tex] is done by the similar process

[tex] \mathsf{ = \frac{6}{5} \times \frac{25}{3} = 2 \times 5 \times 10}[/tex]

Because steps taken with a compass and straightedge cannot be seen at first glance and this situation become a problem for students.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This study investigated three mathematics teachers' construction process of geometric structures using compass and straightedge. The teacher-student-tool interaction was analysed. The study consists of the use of a compass and straightedge by the teachers, the ideas of the teachers about their use, and the observations regarding the learning process during the construction of the geometric structures. A semi-structured interview was conducted with the teachers about the importance of the use of a compass and straightedge to construct geometric structures. It was found that teachers taught compass and straightedge constructions in a rote manner where learning is little more than steps in a process. The study concludes with some suggestions for the use of a compass and straightedge in mathematics classes based on the research results. SUMMARY Purpose and significance: For more than 2,000 years, the way in which geometric structures could be constructed with the help of compasses and straightedges has caught the attention of mathematicians. Nowadays, mathematics curriculums place an emphasis on the use of the compass and straightedge. The compass and straightedge is more important in constructing geometric structures than other drawing tools such as rulers and protractors. Because steps taken with a compass and straightedge cannot be seen at first glance and this situation become a problem for students. However, 'doing compass and straightedge construction early in the course helps students to understand properties of figures'

The statement 'C' explains the difference between a plane and a ray.

i.e. A plane does not have a formal definition, and a ray is described through undefined terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

A plane does not have a formal definition, and a ray is described through undefined terms. The statement is true because

A plane is basically an undefined term as it could be named using three non-straight points - also called noncollinear points. A plane is basically a flat two-dimensional object having no thickness.

In Geometry, we have a variety of undefined terms, including point, line and plane. All other terms in Mathematics (Geometry) could be defined from the mentioned three undefined terms.

Therefore, the statement 'C' explains the difference between a plane and a ray.

x - 2x = 4 + 4

-x = 8

x = -8.

So, When you add 16 to my mystery number then subtract 20,

m + 16 - 20,

you get the same result as when you add my mystery number to itself, then add 20 and subtract 16,

m + m + 20 - 16.

Therefore,

m + 16 - 20 = m + m + 20 - 16

m - 4 = 2m + 4.

Q.An observer 1.7m tall is 20sqrt(3)m away from a tower.The angle of elevation from the eye of observer to the top of the tower is 30 Find the height of the tower

plz Answer me ​

Answers

Answer:

21.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above is a right angle triangle and we would be using the trigonometric function of tangent to solve for it.

tan θ = Opposite/ Adjacent

Opposite side = Height = unknown

Adjacent = 20sqrt(3) m

θ = Angle of Elevation = 30°

Hence, we have:

tan 30° = Opposite/ 20√3

Opposite = tan 30° × 20√3m

Opposite = 20m

Height of the tower = Height of the observer + Height (Opposite side)

Height = 20m

Height of the the observer as given in the question is = 1.7m

Height of the tower = 20m + 1.7m

= 21.7m

Therefore, the height of the tower = 21.7m

¹⁰C₄ = 10!/4!6!

¹⁰C₄ = 10*9*8*7*6/4!6!

¹⁰C₄ = 10*9*8*7/4*3*2*1

She got rid of 10 shirts out of 40, so 10/40 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25% is the estimated percentage of shirts she got rid of. This is one possible estimate.

Using a calculator, the actual percentage is 9/35 = 0.2571 = 25.71% approximately. So our estimate isn't too bad. Our estimate is an underestimate.
