in a flight simulation test, a particular pilot among a group of pilots receives a very low score. however, when he takes the test after six months, he performs considerably better and his scores are closer to the average of the group. which of the following is most likely to account for the higher scores?

The value of x is -20 and can be calculated using basic proportionality theorem.

The Basic Proportionality Theorem, often known as the Thales Theorem, was developed by the well-known Greek mathematician Thales.

Basic Proportionality Theorem asserted that the ratio of any two related sides is always the same for any two equiangular triangles.

Thales provided the basic proportionality theorem based on this idea (BPT). Similar triangles have introduced this idea before. If two triangles resemble one another, then

The corresponding angles of both triangles are equal.

The corresponding sides of both triangles are proportional to one another.

Since the ratio of other side pair is 1:1, similarly 4x+20 = 3x

20 = 3x-4x

20 = -x

x = -20

Therefore, the value of x is -20

The triangles are congruent by ASA theorem.

Two triangles are said to be congruent if pairs of their corresponding sides and their corresponding angles are equal. In other words, congruent triangles are triangles that have the same size and shape.

Therefore, If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent by ASA(angle side angle).

The length of sides in congruent triangles are MN=30, MP=18, PN=30

QR=30, RS=30,  SQ=18

In the diagram two congruent triangles are given ΔPMN ≅ ΔQSR.

So by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent)

In ΔPMN and ΔQSR

PN=QR=30 in.

PM=SQ=18 in.

MN=RS= 30 in.

PN=QR=30 then PN=30

PM=SQ =18 then PM=18

MN=RS =30 then MN=30

Congruent triangles are the triangles of which all the sides and all the angles are congruent.

Answer:

$6.50

Step-by-step explanation:

So writing out everything

1 Pizza = $17.50

1 soda = $1.25

1 salad = $1.75

Exception; Salad is buy 1 get 1 free, so only 2 salads were paid for

Now we multiple

1 Pizza * 17.50 = 17.50

4 soda * 1.25 = 5

2 salad * 1.75 = 3.50

Now we add

17.50 + 5 = 22.50 + 3.50 = $26.00

Now lastly, we divide by 4 since there are 4 friends

26/4 = 6.5

Giving us a answer of $6.50

If there are 4 boys and 4 girls , then the number of ways in which

(i) there is no restriction is 40320 ways  ,

(ii) not all girls sit together is 37440 ways  ,

(iii) no two girls sit together is 2880 ways  .

the number of boys in the class is =  4 boys ;

the number of girls in the class is = 4 girls ;

Part(i) ,

we have to find number of ways in which they can sit in a row where there is no restriction .

there are total of 8 persons ,

So ,the number of ways in which 8 persons can be arranged without any restrictions is = 8! ways.

= 40320 ways

Part(ii) ,

we have to find number of ways in which they can sit in a row where not all girls sit together.

the cases where all gets sit together is written as :

= B₁ , B₂ , B₃ , B₄ , G ⇒ 5! ways ;

= B: G₁ , G₂ , G₃ , G₄ ⇒ 4! ways ;

the number of ways all girls are together is = 5! × 4! ;

So , the number of ways not all girls are together is = 8! - 5!×4!  ;

= 37440 ways

Part(iii) ,

we have to find number of ways in which they can sit in a row where no two girls sit together.

this case can be denoted as : G , B₁ , G , B₂ , G , B₃ , G , B₄ .

So , the boys can be arranged in 4! ways ;

and there will be 5 places for 4 girls , which can be arranged in ⁵P₄ ways ;

The answer for lateral surface area of the Triangular prism is 180 cm²

Any solid object's lateral area can be calculated using the lateral area formula. Any figure's lateral area only includes the non-base faces. Calculating the lateral surface area of various forms, such as the cuboid, cube, cylinder, cone, and sphere, is made easier using lateral area formulas.

The lateral area for a triangular prism

A triangular prism's lateral area is equal to the sum of its side faces' areas (which are 3 rectangles). Specifically, it is the total surface area less the surface areas of the two bases. Additionally called the lateral surface area (LSA). Due to the two dimensions involved in its calculation, we measure it in square units.

The total of the three regions is the triangular prism's lateral area. Consequently, the triangular prism's lateral area formula is

Triangular prism lateral surface area (LSA) = ah + bh + ch (or) (a + b + c) h.

We are aware that the perimeter of the base is (a + b + c) (triangle). Hence,

Triangular prism's lateral surface area (LSA) is equal to the product of the base's perimeter and the prism's height.

base perimeter × height

Explanation

The Given Image of the solid is Matching to a prism.so we are calculating the lateral surface area of the prism

The dimensions of each base are:

a = 5cm

b = 4 cm

c = 3 cm

The height of the triangular prism = 15cm.

Thus, the lateral area of triangular prism = (a + b + c ) h

= (5 + 4 + 3) 15

= (12) 15

= 180 cm²

Answer: The lateral area of the given triangular prism = 180 cm²

The minimum distance from the giant pumpkin is 8.9 yards.

We will use the minimum distance formula between a line and a point to obtain the distance in this case.

A linear function is given according to the standard notation  by:

Ax+By+C=0

A point with 'x' and 'y' coordinates are given by:

P(x*,y*)

The formula to find the shortest distance between a point and a line is denoted by the formula:

d=|Ax*+By*+C|/√(A²+B²)

In this issue, the path's line includes:

When x = 0, and y = 0, the intercept is 0.

0.5 slope means that when x rises by 4, y rises by 2.

Thus, y=1/2x

-1/2x+y=0

or, -x+2y=0

The coefficients of the line are:

A=-1 and B=2

Coordinates of the giant pumpkin is (x*,y*)=(-4,-3)

Therefore, the minimum distance is:

d=|(-1)(-4)+2(-3)|/√5

or,d=2/√5

or, d=0.89 units

We know, 1 unit=10 yards

or, 0.89 units=8.9 yards

The proportion of electric toothbrush prices are between 104.60 dollars and 108.20 dollars are 0.0099.

A normal distribution in statistics is defined as the type of continuous probability distribution where the datas are arranged in a symmetrical bell shaped graph.

Given that,

Mean, μ = 87

Standard deviation, σ = 8

We have to calculate P (104.60 < x < 108.20).

For that find z score.

z = (x - μ) / σ

At x = 104.60, z = (104.60 - 87) / 8 = 2.2

At x = 108.20, z = (108.20 - 87) / 8 = 2.65

From the z table,

P(z < 2.65) = 0.9960 and P(z < 2.2) = 0.9861

P (104.60 < x < 108.20) = 0.9960 - 0.9861 = 0.0099

The values of x and y that makes the figure a parallelogram are x = 17 and y = 26

A parallelogram is a four-sided geometric shape that has opposite sides that are parallel to each other.

The opposite sides of a parallelogram have the same length, and the opposite angles are also equal. The opposite sides of a parallelogram are also known as the bases, and the other two sides are known as the legs.

Since the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal in length, we can say:

3x + 6 = 4 - x

3x + x = 4 - 6

4x = -2

x = -2/4

x = -1/2 = -0.5

y + 2 = 2y - 3

2 + 3 = 2y - y

5 = y

y = 5

Likewise, the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal, so we can say:

(4x - 12)° = (3x + 5)°

4x - 12 = 3x + 5

4x - 3x = 5 + 12

x = 17

(3y + 46)° = (5y - 6)°

3y + 46 = 5y - 6

46 + 6 = 5y - 3y

52 = 2y

2y = 52

y = 52/2

y = 26

The distribution of z-scores would be a normal distribution centered at 0, with a standard deviation of 1.

The distribution of time it takes for people to solve a certain Sudoku puzzle is strongly skewed to the right. This means that most people take a shorter amount of time to solve the puzzle, but some take a longer amount of time. The mean (average) of this distribution is 30 minutes and the standard deviation is 15 minutes.

To find the distribution of z-scores, we need to convert the times into z-scores, which is done by subtracting the mean (30) from each time and then dividing by the standard deviation (15). This gives us a new distribution of z-scores, which is centered at 0 (since the mean of the times was subtracted from each time) and has a standard deviation of 1.
