(D) 9 cm.
Parallelogram:A simple (non-self-intersecting) quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides is known as a parallelogram in Euclidean geometry. A parallelogram's facing or opposing sides are of equal length, and its opposing angles are of similar size. The Euclidean parallel postulate or one of its equivalent formulations must be used in order to demonstrate the congruence of opposed sides and opposite angles because both conditions are a direct result of this postulate.In contrast, a quadrilateral with only one set of parallel sides is referred to as a trapezoid or trapezium in British or American English.The parallelepiped is a parallelogram's three-dimensional equivalent.Therefore, the correct answer is (D) 9 cm.

Answers
Hey There!
Answer:
HCF = 9 (With the two numbers) - 18,9LCM = 3 (with the two numbers) - 6,9Step-by-step explanation:
HCF
If HCF is ''9'' that means that ''9'' is the divisible of two numbers.
So 18 and 19 can be divided by 9 and that's the highest divisible for both factors.
And always remeber the answer is a ''Prime factor.''

Answers
Answer:
204
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify the shape, you can do multiple things. I've opted to shave down both prongs to take it from a 'T' shape to a rectangular prism.
For height of the prongs, take 4 from 6.
6 - 4 = 2
Divide by 2 as there are 2 prongs.
2 / 2 = 1
Remember L * W * H
6 * 3 * 1 = 18
Remember that there are two prongs!
3 + 4 = 7
6 * 7 * 4 = 168
168 + 2(18) = 204

Consider the given function and the given interval.
f(x) = 8 sin x - 4 sin 2x, [0,pi]
(a) Find the average value f ave of f on the given interval.
(b) Find c such that f ave = f(c).
Answers
(a) The average value of f(x) on the closed interval [0, π] is
[tex]\displaystyle\frac1{\pi-0}\int_0^\pi f(x)\,\mathrm dx = \frac1\pi\int_0^\pi(8\sin(x)-4\sin(2x))\,\mathrm dx = \boxed{\frac{16}\pi}[/tex]
(b) By the mean value theorem, there is some c in the open interval (0, π) such that f(c) = 16/π. Solve for c :
8 sin(c) - 4 sin(2c) = 16/π
8 sin(c) - 8 sin(c) cos(c) = 16/π
sin(c) - sin(c) cos(c) = 2/π
Use a calculator to solve this. You should get two solutions, c ≈ 1.2382 and c ≈ 2.8081.

a. Calculate the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.
b. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the population mean.
c. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean
Answers
Answer:
a

b
[tex]15.505 < \mu < 21.495[/tex]
c
[tex]14.93 < \mu < 22.069[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are are told that
The sample data is 21, 14, 13, 24, 17, 22, 25, 12
The sample size is n = 8
Generally the ample mean is evaluated as
[tex]\= x = \frac{\sum x }{n}[/tex]
[tex]\= x = \frac{ 21 + 14 + 13 + 24 + 17 + 22+ 25 + 12 }{8}[/tex]
[tex]\= x = 18.5[/tex]
Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x- \=x )^2}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum ((21 - 18.5)^2 + (14-18.5)^2+ (13-18.5)^2+ (24-18.5)^2+ (17-18.5)^2+ (22-18.5)^2+ (25-18.5)^2+ (12 -18.5)^2 )}{8}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = 5.15[/tex]
considering part b
Given that the confidence level is 90% then the significance level is evaluated 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 margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E =1.645 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 2.995[/tex]
The 90% confidence interval is evaluated as
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]18.5 - 2.995 < \mu < 18.5 + 2.995[/tex]
[tex]15.505 < \mu < 21.495[/tex]
considering part c
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the significance level is evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100-95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/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} } = 1.96[/tex]
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E =1.96 * \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 3.569[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is evaluated as
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]

An arithmetic sequence has this recursive formula: (a^1 =8, a^n= a^n-1 -6
A.a^n=8+(n-6)(-1)
B.a^n=8+(n-1)(-6)
C.
Answers
Answer:
[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a_1 = 8[/tex]
Recursive: [tex]a_{n} = a_{n-1} - 6[/tex]
Required
Determine the formula
Substitute 2 for n to determine [tex]a_2[/tex]
[tex]a_{2} = a_{2-1} - 6[/tex]
[tex]a_{2} = a_{1} - 6[/tex]
Substitute [tex]a_1 = 8[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = 8 - 6[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = 2[/tex]
Next is to determine the common difference, d;
[tex]d = a_2 - a_1[/tex]
[tex]d = 2 - 8[/tex]
[tex]d = -6[/tex]
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is calculated as
[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]
Substitute [tex]a_1 = 8[/tex] and [tex]d = -6[/tex]
[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]
[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]
Hence, the nth term of the sequence can be calculated using[tex]a_n = 8 + (n - 1) (-6)[/tex]

C° = 71.6056
Step-by-step explanation:
Law of Cosines: c² = a² + b² - 2abcosC°
Step 1: Plug in known variables
29² = 30² + 15² - 2(30)(15)cosC°
Step 2: Evaluate
841 = 900 + 225 - 900cosC°
-59 = 225 - 900cosC°
-284 = -900cosC°
71/225 = cosC°
cos⁻¹(71/225) = C°
C° = 71.6056
And we have our answer!
Answer:
79.0°
Step-by-step explanation:
The Law of Cosines is used for this purpose. It tells you ...
a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)
Solving for A gives ...
cos(A) = (b² +c² -a²)/(2bc) = (15² +29²-30²)/(2(15)(29)) = 166/870
Using the inverse cosine function, we find the angle to be ...
A = arccos(166/870) ≈ 79.00026°
A ≈ 79.0°

4 solid cubes were made out of the same material. All four have different side lengths: 6cm, 8cm, 10cm, and 12cm. How to distribute the cubes onto two plates of a scale so the scale is balanced? Answer: A= the cube with side length 6 cm, B= the cube with side length 8 cm, C= the cube with side length 10 cm, D= the cube with side length 12 cm. On one side of the scale : , on the other side of the scale
Answers
Answer: The cube with side length of 12cm is alone in one plate, the other 3 cubes are in the other plate.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 4 cubes with side lengths of:
6cm, 8cm, 10cm and 12cm.
Now, some things you need to know:
If we want a scale to be balanced, then the mass in both plates must be the same.
The volume of a cube of side length L is:
V = L^3
And the mass of an object of density D, and volume V is:
M = D*V.
As all the cubes are of the same material, all of them have the same density, so the fact that we do not know the value of D actually does not matter here.
Then we want to forms two groups of cubes in such a way that the total volume in each plate is the same (or about the same), the volumes of the cubes are:
Cube of 6cm:
V = (6cm)^3 = 216cm^3
Cube of 8cm:
V = (8cm)^3 = 512cm^3
Cube of 10cm:
V = (10cm)^3 = 1000cm^3
cube of 12cm
V = (12cm)^3 = 1728cm^3
First, if we add the volumes of the first two cubes, we have:
V1 = 216cm^3 + 512cm^3 = 728cm^3
Now we can see that we add 1000cm^3 the volume will be equal to the volume of the larger cube, so here we can also add the cube with side length of 10cm
Then the volume of the 3 smaller cubes together is:
V1 = 216cm^3 + 512cm^3 + 1000cm^3 = 1728cm^3.
Then, if we want to have the same volume in each plate, then we need to have the 3 smaller cubes in one plate, and the larger cube in the other plate.
On a particular production line, the likelihood that a light bulb is defective is 10%. seven light bulbs are randomly selected. What is the probability that at most 4 of the light bulbs will be defective
Answers
Answer:
0.9995
Step-by-step explanation:
10% = 0.10
1 - 0.10 = 0.9
n = number of light bulbs = 7
we calculate this using binomial distribution.
p(x) = nCx × p^x(1-p)^n-x
our question says at most 4 is defective
= (7C0 × 0.1⁰ × 0.9⁷) + (7C1 × 0.1¹ × 0.9⁶) + (7C2 × 0.1² × 0.9⁵) + (7C3 × 0.1³ × 0.9⁴) + (7C4 × 0.1⁴ × 0.9³)
= 0.478 + 0.372 + 0.1239 + 0.023 + 0.0026
= 0.9995
we have 0.9995 probability that at most 4 light bulbs are defective.

Techwiz electronics makes a profit of $35 for each mp3 and $18 for each DVD last week techwiz sold a combined total of 118 mp3 and DVD players. Let x be the number of mp3 sold last week write an expression for the combined total profit (in dollars) made last week
Answers
Answer:
The total profit is [tex]p = 17x + 2124[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The profit made on each mp3 is k = $35
The profit made on each mp3 is y = $18
The total amount sold is n = 118
Now given that the amount of mp3 sold is x then the amount of DVD sold is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]n - x[/tex]
Now the profit made on the x number of mp3 sold is
[tex]x * 35 = 3x[/tex]
And the the profit made from the n-x number of DVD sold is 18 (n-x ) = 18 - 18x
So the total profit made last week from the sales of both mp3 and DVD is
[tex]p = 35x + 18n - 18x[/tex]
[tex]p = 17x + 18(118)[/tex]
[tex]p = 17x + 2124[/tex]

Find integral,
int( int(f(x,y),x=0,4), y = 0,4) = 96C
therefore C = 1/96
or
F(x,y) = x (1+y) / 96 ............................(1)
B)
P(x<=1, y<=1)
Repeat the integral, substitute the appropriate limits,
P = int( int(F(x,y),x=0,1), y = 0,1)
= 1/128 or 0.0078125
P(x<=1, y<=1) = 1/128 or 0.0078125 to 7 places
C)
P(x+y<=1)
From the function, we know that this is going to be less than one half of the probability in (B), closer to 1/4 of the previous.
It will be again a double integral, as follows:
P = int( int(F(x,y),x=0,1-y), y = 0,1)
= 5/2304
= 0.0021701 (to 7 decimals)
P(x+y<=1) = 5/2305, or 0.0021701 to 7 places

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
In a recent year, the socres for the reading portion of a test were normally distributed, with a mean of 23.3 and a standard deviation of 6.4. Complete parts (a) through (d) below.
(a) Find the probability that a randomly selected high school student who took the reading portion of the test has a score that is less than 18. (Round to 4 decimal places as needed.)
(b) Find a probability that a random selected high school student who took the reading portion of the test has a score that is between 19.9 and 26.7.
(c) Find a probability that a random selected high school student who took the reading portion of the test ahs a score that is more than 36.4.
(d) Identify any unusual events. Explain your reasoning.
Answer: (a) P(X<18) = 0.2033
(b) P(19.9<X<26.7) = 0.4505
(c) P(X>36.4) = 0.0202
(d) Unusual event: P(X>36.4)
Step-by-step explanation: First, determine the z-score by calculating:
[tex]z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
Then, use z-score table to determine the values.
(a) x = 18
[tex]z = \frac{18-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = -0.83
P(X<18) = P(z< -0.83)
P(X<18) = 0.2033
(b) x=19.9 and x=26.7
[tex]z = \frac{19.9-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = -0.67
[tex]z = \frac{26.7-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = 0.53
P(19.9<X<26.7) = P(z<0.53) - P(z< -0.67)
P(19.9<X<26.7) = 0.7019 - 0.2514
P(19.9<X<26.7) = 0.4505
(c) x=36.4
[tex]z = \frac{36.4-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
z = 2.05
P(X>36.4) = P(z>2.05) = 1 - P(z<2.05)
P(X>36.4) = 1 - 0.9798
P(X>36.4) = 0.0202
(d) Events are unusual if probability is less than 5% or 0.05. So, part (c) has an unusual event.
The probability will be:
(a) 0.2038
(b) 0.4046
(c) 0.0203
(d) Event in part (c) is unusual.
According to the question,
[tex]\mu = 23.2[/tex][tex]\sigma = 6.4[/tex]Let,
"X" shows the test scores.(a)
The z-score for X=18 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{18-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= -0.828[/tex]
So,
The probability will be:
→ [tex]P(X<18) = P(z < -0.828)[/tex]
[tex]= 0.2038[/tex]
(b)
The z-score for X=19.9 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{19.9-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= -0.531[/tex]
The z-score for X=26.7 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{26.7-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= 0.531[/tex]
So,
The probability will be:
→ [tex]P(19.9 < X< 23.3) = P(-0.531 < z< 0.531)[/tex]
[tex]= 0.4046[/tex]
(c)
The z-score for X=36.4 will be:
→ [tex]z = \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{36.4-23.3}{6.4}[/tex]
[tex]= 2.047[/tex]
So,
The probability will be:
→ [tex]P(X > 36.4 )= P(z > 2.047)[/tex]
[tex]= 0.0203[/tex]
(d)
Just because it's probability value is less than 0.05, so that the events is "part c" is unusual.
