The mean weight of 8 girls in a group is 35 kg. The individual weights of seven of then
are 35kg, 28kg, 43kg, 25kg, 33kg, 51kg, and 22kg. Find the weight of the 8th girl.

Answers

The weight of the 8th girl in the class is 43 kg

How to determine the weight of the 8th girl?

The given parameters are:

Mean weight = 35 kg

Weight of 7 girls = 35kg, 28kg, 43kg, 25kg, 33kg, 51kg, and 22kg

Let the weight of the 8th girl be x.

Mean is calculated using:

Mean = Sum/Count

So, we have:

(35+ 28+43+25+33+51+22 + x)/8 = 35

Evaluate the sum

(237 + x)/8 = 35

Multiply both sides by 8

237 + x = 280

Subtract 237 from both sides

x = 43

Hence, the weight of the 8th girl is 43 kg

Given that XW bisects AXZ, what theorem or theorems could be used to justify that W is equidistant from the two outside rays?

Answers

Answer:

  HA congruence postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to show W is equidistant from A and Z, we must demonstrate that WA ≅ WZ. The HA congruence postulate can be used for that purpose.

__

proof

WX bisects AXZ, so ∠WXA≅∠WXZ by the definition of an angle bisector. By the reflexive property of congruence, WX≅WX. The angles at A and Z are given as right angles.

So, we have triangles WAX and WZX that are right triangles with congruent hypotenuse and corresponding angle. These are the preconditions for the application of the HA congruence postulate. That postulate says the triangles WAX and WZX are congruent, so ...

WA ≅ WZ by CPCTC. Hence W is equidistant from the outside rays.

__

Additional comment

The definition of distance from a point to a line is the perpendicular distance from the point to the line. In this geometry, the perpendicular distances from W to the outside rays are the lengths of segments WA and WZ. That is why we need to show those lengths are the same.

Which polynomial function could be represented by the graph below?


A. [tex]f(x) = x^2 - 4x[/tex]

B. [tex]f(x) = x^2 + 4x[/tex]

C. [tex]f(x) = -x^2 - 4x[/tex]

D. [tex]f(x) = -x^2 + 4x[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} + 4x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is concave up, this means that the leading term x^2 is positive.

[tex]f(x) = {x}^{2} + 4x[/tex]

[tex]y = {x}^{2} + 4x[/tex]

For the x intercept, let y = 0

[tex] {x}^{2} + 4x = 0[/tex]

[tex]x(x + 4) = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = 0 \: \: \: or \: \: \: \: x = - 4[/tex]

The x intercepts are:

(0 , 0) and (-4 , 0)

For the y intercept, let x = 0

[tex]y = {0}^{2} + 4(0) = 0[/tex]

y intercept :

(0, 0)

For the turning point:

[tex]t.p = \frac{x1 + x2}{2} [/tex]

[tex]t.p = \frac{0 + ( - 4)}{2} = - 2[/tex]

[tex]f( - 2) = {( - 2)}^{2} + 4( - 2) = - 4[/tex]

Turning point:

Decide whether quadrilateral ABCD with vertices 4(-3,0), B(-4,1), C(-1.4), and D(0,3) is a rectangle, rhombus, square, or parallelogram.

Answers

Answer: rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The options imply the figure is a parallelogram. Furthermore, we can tell that not all the sides are congruent, so we can rule out the possibility that it is a rhombus or a square.

To determine if it is a rectangle, we can use the slope formula to determine if there is a pair of perpendicular sides. If this is the case, then this will be a parallelogram with a right angle, making it a rectangle.

x - [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] = ± [tex]\sqrt{\frac{1}{36} }[/tex] = ± [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] ( add [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] to both sides )

A box contains 50 batteries, of which 10 are dead and 5 are weak. Suppose you select batteries at random from the box and set them aside for recycling if they are dead or weak. If the first battery you select is dead and the second one is weak, what is the probability that the next battery you select will be weak?

Answers

Probability of selecting 1 dead, 1 weak, then 1 weak = (1/588).

Given: 50 total batteries, of which 10 are dead and 5 are weak. This is represented by: 10/50 (simplifies to 1/5) and 5/50 (simplifies to 1/10).
If the batteries are being set aside, it likely means no replacement. For every battery taken out of the box, the box holds one less battery.

Probability of selecting 1 dead, 1 weak, 1 weak is written as: (10/50)*(5/49)*(4/48) = 1/588.

So, the mean of data in 2022 is more than mean of data in 2018.

It’s best to use the mean when the distribution of the data values is symmetrical and there are no clear outliers.

As the variance of 2022 more than in variance in 2018.

A high variance indicates that the data points are very spread out from the mean, and from one another.

As the standard deviation of 2022 more than in standard deviation in 2018.
