Answer: First Choice. 3 ( x - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

When we are doing factoring, we should try to find any Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of all constants in the given expression.

The Greatest Common factor is the largest value of the values you have, that multiplied by the whole number is able to "step onto both".

Solve:

Factors of 3: 1, 3

Factors of 15: 1, 3, 5, 15

As we can see from the list above, 3 appears in both lists of factors and is the greatest for 3. Therefore, [3] is the GCF of 3 and 15

Divide 3 for both numbers to find the remaining.

3x / 3 - 15 / 3x - 5

Check whether or not the remaining can be divisible

Ans: NO

Put the factored out 3 and remaining together

3 ( x - 5)

Triangle = 5

Circle = 25

Square = 100

Pentagon = 1600

Rectangle = 155

Step-by-step explanation:

6 x triangle = 3 x 10

Solve for 3 x 10

6 x triangle = 30

Divide both sides by 6

Triangle = 5
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Triangle x 20 = Circle x 4

Substitute triangle for 5

5 x 20 = Circle x 4

Solve for 5 x 20

100 = Circle x 4

Circle = 100 divided by 4

Circle = 25
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Circle + triangle = square minus 70

Substitute Circle and Triangle for their values

25 + 5 = square - 70

Solve for 25 + 5

30 = square - 70

Add 70 to both sides

square = 100

Pentagon = 1600
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Pentagon divided by square = rectangle + 5

Substitute pentagon and square for their values

1600 divided by 100 = rectangle + 5

Solve for 1600 divided by 100

160 = rectangle + 5

Subtract 5 from both sides

Rectangle = 155

Which answer choice correctly solves for x and y?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = 10\\y = 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

The easiest method to solve this problem is to use the side ratios in a special right triangle. One should start by proving that the triangle is a (30 - 60 - 90) triangle. Since the problem gives on the information that one of the sides has a measure of ([tex]5\sqrt{3}[/tex]), one can use this combination with the ratio of the sides in a special right triangle, to find the unknown side lengths.

2. Prove this triangle is a (30 - 60 - 90) triangle

One is given a right triangle. This means the triangle has a (90) degree or right angle in it. This is indicated by a box around one of the angles. One is given that the other angle in this triangle has an angle measure of (30) degrees. The problem asks for one to find the third angle measure. A property of any triangle is that the sum of angle measures in the triangle is (180) degrees. One can use this to their advantage by stating the following:

[tex](90) + (30) + (unknown) = 180\\[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex](90) + (30) + (unknown) = 180[/tex]

[tex]120 + unknown = 180\\[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]120 + unknown = 180\\[/tex]

[tex]unknown = 60[/tex]

Thus, this triangle is a (30 - 60 - 90) triangle, as its angles have the measures of (30 - 60 - 90).

3. Solve for (y)

The sides ratio in a (30 - 60 - 90) triangle is the following:

[tex]n - n\sqrt{3} - 2n[/tex]

Where (n) is the side opposite the (30) degree angle, ([tex]n\sqrt{3}[/tex]) is the side opposite the (60) degree angle and finally (2n) is the side opposite the (90) degree angle. The side (y) is opposite the (30) degree angle. This means that it is equal to the side opposite the (60) degree angle divided by ([tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]). Therefore, one can state the following:

[tex]\frac{5\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=y\\5=y[/tex]

4. Solve for (x)

Using the same thought process one used to solve for side (y), one can solve for side (x). The side (x) is opposite the (90) degree angle, hence, one can conclude that it is twice the length of the side with the length of (y). Therefore, one can state the following:

[tex]x = 2y\\x = 2(5)\\x = 10[/tex]

Classify the polygon as regular or irregular, and concave or convex.

Answers

Answer:

This would be a regular polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular polygon has congruent sides and interior angles.

An irregular polygon does not have congruent sides and all interior angles.

A convex polygon does not have a interior angle greater than 180°.

Lastly, a concave polygon has only one interior angle greater than 180°.

Using the process of elimination, it would not be a convex or concave polygon. Now we have either a regular or irregular polygon. This polygon can not be a irregular polygon because all the sides are congruent. This means that this polygon is a regular polygon!

The given polygon is a regular convex polygon.

What is a polygon ?

In geometry, a polygon is a plane figure that is described by a finite number of straight line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain (or polygonal circuit). The bounded plane region, the bounding circuit, or the two together, may be called a polygon.

The segments of a polygonal circuit are called its edges or sides. The points where two edges meet are the polygon's vertices or corners. The interior of a solid polygon is sometimes called its body.

Given,

Polygon has 8 edges and 8 vertices.

1. Regular or Irregular:

A regular polygon has congruent sides and interior angles.

In the figure all sides are of equal length and the angle are same so, It is a regular polygon.

2. Convex or concave:

Convex polygon has all interior angles less than 180° while in concave polygon at least one interior angle should be greater than 180°.

In the given polygon all angles are less than 180°, so it is a convex polygon.

Hence, by the above explanation, the given polygon is regular convex polygon.

Answer:

7.5 sq units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's list out all the points in the triangle.

(0,4) (4,1) and (5,4)

Find the distance b/w each side

distance b/w (0,4) and (4,1) is

[tex]\sqrt{(1-4)^{2}+( 4-0)^{2} }[/tex] =[tex]\sqrt{(-3)^{2}+16 } =\sqrt{9+16}=\sqrt{25} =5[/tex]

distance b/w (4,1) and (5,4) is

[tex]\sqrt{(4-1)^{2}+(5-4)^{2} }=\sqrt{9+1}=\sqrt{ 10 }[/tex]

distance b/w (5,4) and (0,4) is

[tex]\sqrt{(4-4)^2+(0-5)^2}=\sqrt{25} =5[/tex]

So the given triangle is an isoscles triangle meaning 2 sides are equal.

So we can use the formula 1/2*base*height=

1/2*[tex]\sqrt{10}[/tex]*5

=0.5*3.16*5=7.905

So the approximate answer would be 7.5 sq units

The mean age of the students in this class is 15.75. The standard deviation is 1.55. Determine the number of standard deviations from the mean required to include
of the ages listed.
13, 17, 18, 15, 16, 14, 15, 18, 17, 16, 15, 16, 13, 15, 17, 17

Answers

Answer:

1.774 standard deviations

Step-by-step explanation:

From the data, the minimum value is x = 13 and the maximum value is x' = 18. The mean X = 15.75 and the standard deviation, σ = 1.55.

The difference between the mean and the minimum value is the deviation from the mean. So, X - x = 15.75 - 13 = 2.75. To find the number of standard deviations this is, we divide it by the standard deviation, σ = 1.55.

So, 2.75/1.55 = 1.774.

So, the number of standard deviations to contain the value 13 is 1.774σ

Also, the difference between the maximum value and the mean is the deviation from the mean. So, x' - X = 18 - 15.75 = 2.25. To find the number of standard deviations this is, we divide it by the standard deviation, σ = 1.55.

So, 2.25/1.55 = 1.452.

So, the number of standard deviations to contain the value 18 is 1.452σ

Since 1.774σ > 1.452σ and 1.774σ would contain both the values of 13 and 18, the number of standard deviations from the mean required to contain the values is  1.774 standard deviations.

The equation for an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_1+d(n-1)[/tex]  where n is the position of the number in the sequence, a1 is the first number in the sequence, and d is the difference between the numbers in the sequence.

Our first number is 2, so a1 = 2; to get from 2 to 5 we add 3, to get from 5 to 8 we add 3. That means that d = 3. Filling in the standard form of the equation:

[tex]a_n=2+3(n-1)[/tex] which simplifies to

[tex]a_n=2+3n-3[/tex] and a bit more to

[tex]a_n=3n-1[/tex] (which should tell you that arithmetic sequences are lines!)

Finding the 13th number simply requires that we replace n with 13 and solve:

[tex]a_{13}=3(13)-1[/tex] so

Answers

Answer:

130.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, μ = 100

Standard deviation, σ = 15

To obtain the upper 2% of scores :

We find the Zscore (value) of the upper 2% from the normal probability distribution table ;

Zscore corresponding to the area in the left of (1 - 0.02) = 2.054

Using this with the Zscore formula :

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

2.054 = (x - 100) / 15

2.054 * 15 = x - 100

30.81 = x - 100

30.81 + 100 = x

x = 130.81
