Answer: DE = 79
Concept:
Here, we need to know the idea of segment addition postulate.
The Segment Addition Postulate states that given 2 points A and C, a third point B lies on the line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation AB + BC = AC.
If you are still confused, you may refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation or tell me.
Solve:
**Disclaimer** I assume that points D, E, F are collinear, thus they would form a segment and F would be the point between D and E. If it was, you may refer to my answers. If it was not, you may tell me and I will redo it.
Given information
DF = 61
EF = 18
Given expression deducted from the segment addition postulate
DE = DF + EF
Substitute values into the expression
DE = (61) + (18)
Simplify by addition
[tex]\boxed{DE=79}[/tex]

A professor has learned that nine students in her class of 35 will cheat on the exam. She decides to focus her attention on ten randomly chosen students during the exam. a. What is the probability that she finds at least one of the students cheating
Answer:
[tex]\frac{73,331}{75,516}\approx 97.11\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that she will find at least one student cheating is equal to the probability that she finds no students cheating subtracted from 1.
Each time she randomly chooses a student the probability she will catch a cheater is equal to the number of cheaters divided by the number of students.
Therefore, for the first student she chooses, there is a [tex]\frac{9}{35}[/tex] chance that the student chosen is a cheater and therefore a [tex]\frac{26}{35}[/tex] chance she does not catch a cheater. For the second student, there are only 34 students to choose from. If we stipulate that the first student chosen was not a cheater, then there is a [tex]\frac{9}{34}[/tex] chance she will catch a cheater and a [tex]\frac{25}{34}[/tex] chance she does not catch the cheater.
Therefore, the probability she does not catch a single cheater after randomly choosing ten students is equal to:
[tex]\frac{26}{35}\cdot \frac{25}{34}\cdot \frac{24}{33}\cdot \frac{23}{32}\cdot \frac{22}{31}\cdot \frac{21}{30}\cdot \frac{20}{29}\cdot \frac{19}{28}\cdot \frac{18}{27}\cdot \frac{17}{26}[/tex]
Subtract this from one to get the probability she finds at least one of the students cheating after randomly selecting nine students. Let event A occur when the professor finds at least one student cheating after randomly selecting ten students from a group of 35 students.
[tex]P(A)=1-\frac{26}{35}\cdot \frac{25}{34}\cdot \frac{24}{33}\cdot \frac{23}{32}\cdot \frac{22}{31}\cdot \frac{21}{30}\cdot \frac{20}{29}\cdot \frac{19}{28}\cdot \frac{18}{27}\cdot \frac{17}{26},\\\\P(A)=1-\frac{2,185}{75,516},\\\\P(A)=\boxed{\frac{73,331}{75,516}}\approx 0.97106573441\approx \boxed{97.11\%}[/tex]
Owens Orchards sells apples in a large bag by weight. A sample of seven bags contained the following numbers of apples: 23, 19, 26, 17, 21, 24, 22. a. Compute the mean and median number of apples in a bag. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
The mean and median number of apples in a bag are 21.71 and 22 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is the arithmetic mean of a set of numbers. In other words, the mean is the average value of all my data.
The mean is calculated by adding all the values and dividing the sum by the total number of values. In this case:
[tex]Mean=\frac{23+19+26+17+21+24+22}{7}[/tex]
[tex]Mean=\frac{152}{7}[/tex]
Mean= 21.71
The median of a set of numbers is the average number in the set, that is, it is the value that occupies the central place of all the values.
The median can be calculated by putting the numbers in ascending order and then:
if the quantity is numbers it is odd: the median is the number in the center of that distribution. if the number of numbers is even: the median is the mean of the two middle numbers.In this case:
Putting the numbers in ascending order: 17, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26
Since the quantity is odd numbers, the median is the number in the center of that distribution. So Median= 22
The mean and median number of apples in a bag are 21.71 and 22 respectively.

How to do questions 19 and 20
Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information given in the question we can form the following 3 equations (in the order of the first 3 sentences)
w = 2h (twice the price)
t = h - 4 ($4 less)
3w + 2h + 5t = 136 (total purchasing and cost)
We can solve all 3 equations for h first, by substituting the first two equations, into the third equations w and t
3(2h) + 2h + 5(h-4) = 136
Simplify
6h + 2h + 5h - 20 = 136
13h = 136 + 20
13h = 156
h = 156/13
h = $12
Using this information, we can solve for w and t
w = 2h
w = 2(12)
w = $24
And finally
t = h - 4
t = 12 - 4
t = $8
A group of dental researchers are testing the effects of acidic drinks on dental crowns. They have five containers of crowns labeled V, W, X, Y, and Z. They will randomly select one of the containers to be the control for the experiment by drawing one of five well-mixed slips of paper with the same labels from a hat. Which of the following is the probability model for the control container?
Answer:
[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]S = \{V,W,X,Y,Z\}[/tex]
[tex]n(S) = 5[/tex]
Required
The probability model
To do this, we simply calculate the probability of each container.
So, we have:
[tex]P(V) = \frac{n(V)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]
[tex]P(W) = \frac{n(W)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]
[tex]P(X) = \frac{n(X)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]
[tex]P(Y) = \frac{n(Y)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]
[tex]P(Z) = \frac{n(Z)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]
So, the probability model is:
[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}[/tex]
Answer:
answer is V=.20, W=.20, X=.20, Y=.20, X=.20

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 5 tables is $53. The total cost to rent 8 chairs and 3 tables is $42. What is the cost to rent each chair and each table?
Answer:
c=cost of one chair rental
t=cost of one table rental
8c+3t=42
2c+5t=53
multiply the second equation, each term on both sides, by -4
8c+3t=42
-8c-20t=-212
add the two equations
-17t=-170
divide both sides by -17
t=$10 to rent one table
substitute t=10 into either original equation
2c+5(10)=53
2c+50=53
2c=3
c=$1.50 to rent one chair

Is rectangle EFGH the result of a dilation of rectangle ABCD with a center of dilation at the origin? Why or why not?
Yes, because corresponding sides are parallel and have lengths in the ratio Four-thirds
Yes, because both figures are rectangles and all rectangles are similar.
No, because the center of dilation is not at (0, 0).
No, because corresponding sides have different slopes.
Answer:
option b
Step-by-step explanation:
both are rectangles and similar measures
Yes, because both figures are rectangles and all rectangles are similar
The rectangle EFGH is a result of the dilation of rectangle ABCD
What is Dilation?Resizing an item uses a transition called Dilation. Dilation is used to enlarge or contract the items. The result of this transformation is an image with the same shape as the original. However, there is a variation in the shape's size. Dilation transformations ensure that the shape will stay the same and that corresponding angles will be congruent
Given data ,
Let the first rectangle be represented as ABCD
Now , the rectangle is dilated by a scale factor k
And , the transformed rectangle is given by EFGH
where the center of origin is the scale factor of dilation
Now , the ratios of the sides of the rectangles will be similar
So , the rectangles ABCD and EFGH are similar
Hence , the dilated rectangle is EFGH

What are the solutions to the equation?
x3 – 6x2 – 9x + 54 = 0
Answer:
x = -3 or x = 3 or x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
x3 – 6x2 – 9x + 54 = 0
There is no common factor to factor out. There are 4 terms. We try factoring by grouping. Factor a common factor out of the first two terms. Factor a common factor out of the last two terms.
x^2(x - 6) - 9(x - 6) = 0
x - 6 is a common factor, so we factor it out.
(x^2 - 9)(x - 6) = 0
x^2 - 9 is the difference of 2 squares, so we factor it.
(x + 3)(x - 3)(x - 6) = 0
x + 3 = 0 or x - 3 = 0 or x - 6 = 0
x = -3 or x = 3 or x = 6
Answer:
x=6 x=3 x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 – 6x^2 – 9x + 54 = 0
Factor by grouping
x^3 – 6x^2 – 9x + 54 = 0
x^2(x-6) -9(x-6 ) =0
Factor out x-6
(x-6)(x^2 -9) =0
Notice x^2 -9 is the difference of squares
(x-6)(x-3)(x+3) = 0
Using the zero product property
x-6 =0 x-3 =0 x+3 =0
x=6 x=3 x=-3
Perform the following series of rigid transformations on ∆ABC: Translate ∆ABC by moving it 5 units to the right and 2 units up. Draw the line y = -x, and reflect ∆A'B'C' across the line. Rotate ∆A''B''C'' counterclockwise about the origin by 270°.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.
If a point A(x, y) is translated a units right and b units up, the new point is at A'(x + a, y + b).
If a point A(x, y) is reflected across the line y = -x, the new point is at A'(-y, -x).
If a point A(x, y) is rotated counterclockwise by 270 degrees, the new point is at A'(y, -x).
Let us assume that triangle ABC has vertices at A(-6, -1), B(-3, -3) and C(-1, -2).
If it is moved 5 units to the right and 2 units up, the new point is at A'(-1, 1), B'(1, -1) and C'(3, 0). If it is reflected across the line y = -x, the vertices are at A"(-1, 1), B"(1, -1) and C"(0, -3). If it is then rotated counterclockwise about the origin by 270°, the new point is at A'"(-1, -1), B"'(1, 1), C"'(3, 0)

Solve 2x2 - 9x - 5 = 0 by factoring.
AS IN THE PICTURE...........
In the diagram attached, ΔABC has coordinates A(1,1), B(4,1), and C(4,5).
Given the function rule
f(x, y) → (x − 5, −y − 2)
Describe the transformation as completely as possible.
The diagram is attached-- Thanks in advance!
(No this is not homework, I was using a study guide I found online to study for a test.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔABC has the vertices as A(1, 1), B(4, 1) and C(4, 5).
Rule for the transformation has been given as,
f(x, y) → (x - 5, -y - 2)
By this rule vertices of the transformed image will be,
A(1, 1) → A'(1 - 5, -1 - 2)
→ A'(-4, -3)
B(4, 1) → B'(4 - 5, -1 - 2)
→ B'(-1, -3)
C(4, 5) → C'(4 - 5, -5 - 2)
→ C'(-1, -7)

Answer:
54, 55, 56, 57, 58
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
56 problems
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up an equation.
[tex]\frac{3}{5}x<35<\frac{13}{20}x[/tex]
Why do we do this? We are told that she solved MORE than 60%, or [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex], and LESS than 65%, or [tex]\frac{13}{20}[/tex]. Therefore, if we set the TOTAL number of problems to x, we have an equation we can solve.
[tex]\frac{3}{5}x<35<\frac{13}{20}x\\[/tex]
Multiply all parts of the inequality by 20 to get rid of the denominators.
[tex]20*\frac{3}{5}x<20*35<20*\frac{13}{20}x\\ \\12x<700<13x[/tex]
Now we can solve TWO individual inequalities to isolate the x variable.
[tex]12x<700\\x<\frac{700}{12}\\x < 175/3\\x<58[/tex]
We can approximate 175/3 to about 58 (rounding down). We will sometimes round down when we have to deal with whole numbers.
The second inequality is as follows.
[tex]13x>700\\x>700/13\\x>53[/tex]
Therefore, we can combine the two inequalities.
[tex]53<x<58[/tex]
There were in between 53 and 58 questions. Since the number of questions must be a whole number, there can be 54, 55, 56, 57, OR 58. Why does 58 also work? When you plug 58 back into the original equation, you get that it STILL works. This is due to the fact that inaccuracies in computations allow you to round UP.
However, the last thing to keep in mind is that there are four sections with an equal number of questions. Meaning, the final answer has to be a multiple of four. The only multiple of 4 is 56; therefore, the final answer is 56.

A study by researchers at a university addressed the question of whether the mean body temperature of an animal is 98 6°F Among other data, the researchers obtained the body temperatures of 109 healthy animals. Suppose you want to use those data to decide whether the mean body temperature of healthy animals is less than 98.6°F.
Required:
a. Determine the null hypothesis
b. Determine the alternative hypothesis
Answer:
H0 : μ ≥ 98.6
H1 : μ < 98.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The population mean temperature, μ = 98.6
The null hypothesis takes up the value of the population mean temperature as the initial truth ;
The alternative hypothesis on the other hand is aimed at using a sample size of 109 to establish if the mean temperature is less than the population mean temperature.
The hypothesis ;
Null hypothesis, H0 : μ ≥ 98.6
Alternative hypothesis ; H1 : μ < 98.6
Dodi bicycles 14mph with no wind. Against the wind, Dodi bikes 10mi in the same time it takes to bike 20mi with the wind. What is the speed of the wind?
Answer:
4.67 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed with no wind = 14 mph
Let wind speed = w mph
Thus;
Speed with wind = 14 + w
Speed against the wind = 14 - w
Now, we are told that against the wind he bikes 10 miles.
Thus, from; time = distance/speed, we have;
Time = 10/(14 - w)
Also, we are told he biked 20 miles with the wind. Thus;
Time = 20/(14 + w)
We are told the times he used in both cases are the same.
Thus;
10/(14 - w) = 20/(14 + w)
Divide both sides by 10 to get;
1/(14 - w) = 2/(14 + w)
Cross multiply to get:
1(14 + w) = 2(14 - w)
14 + w = 28 - 2w
w + 2w = 28 - 14
3w = 14
w = 14/3
w = 4.67 mph
