Why is a rhombus considered a type of quadrilateral?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Well a rhombus is considered a quadrilateral because it has 4 sides and 4 angles.

Just like a square and rectangle they both are quadrilaterals with 4 angles and sides.

Answer 2

A rhombus is considered a type of quadrilateral because it has four sides and four angles

How to determine the reason?

As a general rule, a shape that is considered a quadrilateral must have:

4 sides4 angles

Since a rhombus has four sides and four angles, then it is considered a type of quadrilateral

Which equation will solve the following word problem? In a given amount of time, Jamie drove four times as far as Rhonda. Altogether they drove 125 miles. Find the number of miles driven by each. 4T + T = 125 4T = 125/T T = 125/4T 4T - T = 12

Answers

Answer:

1) 4T+T=125

2) Rhonda drove 25 miles

and Jamie drove 100 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Rhonda drove = T

Jamie drove = 4T

4T+T=125

2) 5T=125

T=125/5

T=25

So Rhonda drove T = 25

And Jamie drove 4T = 100

In a factory there are 100 units of a certain product, 5 of which are defective. We pick three units from the 100 units at random. What is the probability that none of them are defective

Answers

Answer:

Probability of picking all three non-defective units

= 7372/8085  (or 0.911812 to six decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

D = event that the picked unit is defective

N = event that the picked unit is not defective

Pick are without replacement.

We need to calculate P(NNN) using the multiplication rule,

P(NNN)

= 97/100 * 96/99 * 95/98

=7372/8085

= 0.97*0.969697*0.9693878

= 0.911812

The probability that none of the picked products are defective is;

P(None picked is defective) = 0.856

We are told that 5 are defective out of 100.

This means the number of good products that are not defective are 95.

Probability of the first picked product not being defective is written as; P(First picked not defective) = 95/100

Since the good ones have been picked, there will be 99 left of which the good ones are now 94. Thus, probability of second one not being defective = 94/99

Since two good ones have been picked, there will be 98 left and 93 good ones left. Thus, probability of third one not being defective = 93/98

Finally, Probability of none of the three being defective is;

95/100 × 94/99 × 93/98 = 0.856

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

5.39 jings =15.4 hings  ....(1)

4.9 hings = 2.8 gings ...(2)

From equation (2), the value of 1 ging is :

From equation (1), the value of 1 jing is :

From equation (3) and (4), we get :

[tex]\dfrac{\text{1 ging}}{\text{1 jing}}=\dfrac{4.9}{2.8}\times \dfrac{5.39}{15.4}\\\\\dfrac{\text{1 ging}}{\text{1 jing}}=\dfrac{49}{80} \\\\1\ \text{ging}=\dfrac{49}{80}\ \text{ jings}[/tex]

Prove that for all integers m and n, m - n is even if, and only if, both m and n are even or both m and n are odd.

Answers

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that m and n are both even numbers.

So we can express them as the product of 2 and another number.

● n = 2×a

● m = 2×b

● m-n = 2b-2a

● m-n = 2(b-a)

m-n is an even number since it is divisible by 2.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Suppose that both n and m are odd numbers.

● n = 2a+1

● m = 2b+1

● m-n = 2b+1-(2a+1)

● m-n = 2b+1-2a-1

● m-n = 2b-2a

● m-n = 2(b-a)

So m-n is even since it is divisible by 2.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Suppose that m is odd and n is even ir vice versa

● n = 2a or n= 2a+1

● m = 2b+1 or m = 2b

● m-n = 2b+1-2a or m-n = 2b-2a-1

● m-n = 2(b-a) +1 or m-n = 2(b-a)-1

In both cases m-n isn't even.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

So m-n is even if and only if m and n are odd or m and are even

Answer:

Case 1

both m and n are even

Therefore m/2 and n/2 are integers

Then,

m-n

=2(m/2 - n/2)

Since m/2 and n/2 are integers

Then m/2 - n/2 will be an integer

Therefore,

m-n = 2(Z)

Where Z is an integer

Since 2 is a factor of m-n

Therefore m -n is even

Case 2

Both m and n are odd

m-n

= 2(½m - ½n)

When an odd number is divided by 2 it gives an integer and a remainder of 1

Therefore

½m = Y + ½

And

½n = Z + ½

Where Y and Z are integers

Then

m-n = 2(Y+½-Z-½)

= 2(Y-Z)

Y-Z will also be an integer

m-n= 2A

Therefore m-n is even

Case 3

One is odd and the other even

m-n = 2(m/2 - n/2)

Assume m is even and n is odd

From the discussions above

m-n = 2(Y - Z - ½)

m-n = 2(A - ½)

Hence m-n is not even because when is divided by two it doesn't give an integer.

Therefore for all integers m and n, m - n is even if, and only if, both m and n are even or both m and n are odd.

In the nation of Gondor, the EPA requires that half the new cars sold will meet a certain particulate emission standard a year later. A sample of 64 one-year-old cars revealed that only 24 met the particulate emission standard. The test statistic to see whether the proportion is below the requirement is:

A -1.645

B -2.066

C -2.000

D-1.960

Answer:

The  correct option is C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population mean is  [tex]p = 0.50[/tex]

    The sample size is  [tex]n = 64[/tex]

     The  number that met the standard is  [tex]k = 24[/tex]

       

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically evaluated   as

             [tex]\r p = \frac{24}{64}[/tex]

             [tex]\r p =0.375[/tex]

Generally the standard error is mathematically evaluated as  

       [tex]SE = \sqrt{ \frac{p(1- p )}{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]SE = \sqrt{ \frac{0.5 (1- 0.5 )}{64} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]SE = 0.06525[/tex]

The  test statistics is evaluated as

        [tex]t = \frac{ \r p - p }{SE}[/tex]

        [tex]t = \frac{ 0.375 - 0.5 }{0.0625}[/tex]

        [tex]t = -2[/tex]

Answers

[tex]\bold{\text{Answer:}\quad R(t)=-0.96\sin\bigg(\dfrac{\pi}{182.5}t}\bigg)+2.3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a sin function is: y = A sin (Bx - C) + D     where

Amplitude (A) is the distance from the midline to the max (or min)Period (P) = 2π/B   -->   B = 2π/PC/B is the phase shift (not used for this problem)D is the vertical shift (aka midline)

D = 2.3

It is given that t = 0 is located at 2.30.  The sin graph usually starts at 0 so the graph has shifted up 2.3 units.  --> D = 2.3

A = -0.96

The amplitude is the difference between the maximum (or minimum) and the centerline.  A = 2.30 - 1.44 = 0.96

The minimum is given as the next point. Since the graph usually has the next point as its maximum, this is a reflection so the equation will start with a negative. A = -0.96

B = π/182.5

It is given that [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] Period = 91.25  --> P = 365

B = 2π/P

  = 2π/365

  = π/182.5

C = 0

No phase shift is given so C = 0

Input A, B, C, & D into the equation of a sin function:

[tex]R(t)=-0.96\sin\bigg(\dfrac{\pi}{182.5}t-0}\bigg)+2.3[/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A piece of buttered toast falls to the floor 17 times. The toast landed buttered side up 6 times.

It means that the total number of outcomes are 17

We need to find the probability that the toast lands buttered side down. Favourable oucome is 17-6 = 11

So, probability is given by :

[tex]P(E)=\dfrac{\text{favourable outcomes}}{\text{total no of outcomes}}[/tex]

Prove that if a and b are integers, then for any integer k one has (a,b) = (a + kb,b). (Hint: Show that they are mutually divisible.)

Answers

Answer:

The operation:

(a,b) is equal to the rest of the division of a by b.

Now, if we have:

(a + kb,b) = (a,b) + (k*b,b)

But if we have that k and b are integers, then:

(k*b)/b = k

So b divides k*b into a whole number, this means that (k*b,b) = 0

then:

(a + kb,b) = (a,b) + (k*b,b) = (a,b) + 0 = (a,b)

What is the minimum sample size required to estimate a population mean with 90% confidence when the desired margin of error is 1.25

Answers

Complete Question

What is the minimum sample size required to estimate a population mean with 90% confidence when the desired margin of error is 1.25? The standard deviation in a pre-selected sample is  7.5

Answer:

The minimum sample size is  [tex]n =97[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question  we are told that

 The margin of error is  [tex]E = 1.25[/tex]

   The  standard deviation is  [tex]s = 7.5[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is  90% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

             [tex]\alpha = 100 - 90[/tex]  

             [tex]\alpha =10\%[/tex]  

             [tex]\alpha =0.10[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table  

    The value is  [tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.645[/tex]

   The  minimum sample size is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]n = \frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} * s^2 }}{E^2 }[/tex]

=>        [tex]n = \frac{1.645^2 * 7.5^2 }{1.25^2 }[/tex]
