From the question, we were told:
TUVW is a rhombus
Angle SUV = 4z + 56˚
We are asked to find the value of z.
From the diagram, we can see that angle SVU is 90˚
So, to get the value of z, we equate the value of SVU to 90˚
4z + 56˚ = 90˚
subtract 56˚ from both sides:
4z + 56 - 56 = 90 - 56
4z = 34
divide both sides by 4 to make z the subject of formula:
z = 34/4
z = 8.5

The best reflects solution of the equation is, There is only one solution: x = 3. The solution x = 2 is an extraneous solution.
What is extraneous solution?
An extraneous solution is a root of a converted equation that is not a root of the original equation because it was left out of the original equation's domain is referred to as a superfluous solution.
We are given the following equation,
(x / x - 1) - (1 / x - 2) = (2x - 5)/(x^2 - 3x + 2)
Solving the given equation we have,
(x^2 - 3x + 1) / (x^2 - 3x + 2) = (2x - 5) / (x^2 - 3x + 2)
x^2 - 3x + 1 = 2x - 5
x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0
x^2 - 3x - 2x + 6 = 0
x(x - 3) - 2(x - 3) = 0
(x - 3)(x - 2) = 0
(x - 3) = 0, (x - 2) = 0
x = 3, x = 2
At x = 2 the denominator of the equation will be 0. So solution of the equation is not valid at x = 2.
Therefore, x = 3 is the only one solution. The solution x = 2 is an extraneous solution.

A rectangular athletic field is twice as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the athletic field is 360 yards, what are its dimensions?
Answer:
The width is 60 and the length is 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Let l = length
Let w = width
l = 2w
Perimeter
l + l + w + w = 360 Substitute 2w for l
2w + 2w + w + w =360 Combine line terms
6w = 360 Divide both sides by 6
w = 60
If w = 60 then l = 120

The average American man consumes 9.6 grams of sodium each day. Suppose that the sodium consumption of American men is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.8 grams. Suppose an American man is randomly chosen. Let X = the amount of sodium consumed. Round all numeric answers to 4 decimal places where possible. a. What is the distribution of X? X - NO b. Find the probability that this American man consumes between 9.7 and 10.6 grams of sodium per day. C. The middle 10% of American men consume between what two weights of sodium? Low: High:
The variable of interest is
X: sodium consumption of an American male.
a) This variable is known to be normally distributed and has a mean value of μ=9.6grams with a standard deviation of δ=0.8gr
Any normal distribution has a mean = μ and the variance is δ², symbolically:
X~N(μ ,δ²)
For this distribution, we have established that the mean is μ=9.6grams and the variance is the square of the standard deviation so that: δ² =(0.8gr)²=0.64gr²
Then the distribution for this variable can be symbolized as:
X~N(9.6,0.64)
b. You have to find the probability that one American man chosen at random consumes between 9.7 and 10.6gr of sodium per day, symbolically:
[tex]P(9.7\leq X\leq10.6)[/tex]The probabilities under the normal distribution are accumulated probabilities. To determine the probability inside this interval you have to subtract the accumulated probability until X≤9.7 from the probability accumulated probability until X≤10.6:
[tex]P(X\leq10.6)-P(x\leq9.7)[/tex]Now to determine these probabilities, we have to work under the standard normal distribution. This distribution is derived from the normal distribution. If you consider a random variable X with normal distribution, mean μ and variance δ², and you calculate the difference between the variable and ist means and divide the result by the standard deviation, the variable Z =(X-μ)/δ ~N(0;1) is determined.
The standard normal distribution is tabulated. Any value of any random variable X with normal distribution can be "converted" by subtracting the variable from its mean and dividing it by its standard deviation.
So to calculate each of the asked probabilities, you have to first, "transform" the value of the variable to a value of the standard normal distribution Z, then you use the standard normal tables to reach the corresponding probability.
[tex]P(X\leq10.6)=P(Z\leq\frac{10.6-9.6}{0.8})=P(Z\leq1.25)[/tex][tex]P(X\leq9.7)=P(Z\leq\frac{9.7-9.6}{0.8})P(Z\leq0.125)[/tex]So we have to find the probability between the Z-values 1.25 and 0.125
[tex]P(Z\leq1.25)-P(Z\leq0.125)[/tex]Using the table of the standard normal tables, or Z-tables, you can determine the accumulated probabilities:
[tex]P(Z\leq1.25)=0.894[/tex][tex]P(Z\leq0.125)=0.550[/tex]And calculate their difference as follows:
[tex]0.894-0.550=0.344[/tex]The probability that an American man selected at random consumes between 10.6 and 9.7 grams of sodium per day is 0.344
c. You have to determine the two sodium intake values between which the middle 10% of American men fall. If "a" and "b" represent the values we have to determine, between them you will find 10% of the distribution. The fact that is the middle 10% indicates that the distance between both values to the center of the distribution is equal, so 10% of the distribution will be between both values and the rest 90% will be equally distributed in two tails "outside" the interval [a;b]
Under the standard normal distribution, the probability accumulated until the first value "a" is 0.45, so that:
[tex]P(Z\leq a)=0.45[/tex]And the accumulated probability until "b" is 0.45+0.10=0.55, symbolically:
[tex]P(Z\leq b)=0.55[/tex]The next step is to determine the values under the standard normal distribution that accumulate 0.45 and 0.55 of probability. You have to use the Z-tables to determine both values:
The value that accumulates 0.45 of probability is Z=-0.126
To translate this value to its corresponding value of the variable of interest you have to use the standard normal formula:
[tex]a=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]You have to write this expression for X
[tex]\begin{gathered} a\cdot\sigma=X-\mu \\ (a\cdot\sigma)+\mu=X \end{gathered}[/tex]Replace the expression with a=-0.126, μ=9.6gr, and δ=0.8gr
[tex]\begin{gathered} X=(a\cdot\sigma)+\mu \\ X=(-0.126\cdot0.8)+9.6 \\ X=-0.1008+9.6 \\ X=9.499 \\ X\approx9.5gr \end{gathered}[/tex]The value of Z that accumulates 0.55 of probability is 0.126, as before, you have to translate this Z-value into a value of the variable of interest, to do so you have to use the formula of the standard normal distribution and "reverse" the standardization to reach the corresponding value of x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} b=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \\ b\cdot\sigma=X-\mu \\ (b\cdot\sigma)+\mu=X \end{gathered}[/tex]Replace the expression with b=0.126, μ=9.6gr, and δ=0.8gr and calculate the value of X:
[tex]\begin{gathered} X=(b\cdot\sigma)+\mu \\ X=(0.126\cdot0.8)+9.6 \\ X=0.1008+9.6 \\ X=9.7008 \\ X\approx9.7gr \end{gathered}[/tex]The values of sodium intake between which the middle 10% of American men fall are 9.5 and 9.7gr.

i is the interest earned
P is the initial (loan) amount
r is the rate of interest
t is the time

Substituting, we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} i=\text{Prt} \\ i=6500\times0.08\times5 \\ i=2600 \end{gathered}[/tex]This is only the interest. Beyonce would need to pay the original (6500) plus this interest (2600) in total. Thus, she will have to pay:

Using scales, the distance of the two cities on the map would be of:
distance on the map = actual distance/40
What is the scale of a map?A scale on the map represents the ratio between the actual length of a segment and the length of drawn segment, hence:
Scale = actual length/drawn length
In this problem, the scale is of 1 inch to 40 miles, meaning that:
Each inch drawn on the map represents 40 miles.
Then the distance of the two cities on the map, in inches, would be given as follows:
distance on the map = actual distance/40.
If the distance was of 200 miles, for example, the distance on the map would be of 5 inches.
The problem is incomplete, hence the answer was given in terms of the actual distance of the two cities. You just have to replace the actual distance into the equation to find the distance on the map.

Use dimensional analysis to determine which rate is greater. The pitcher for the Robins throws a baseball at 90.0 miles per hour. The pitcher on the Bluebirds throws a baseball 125.4 feet per second. Which pitcher throws a baseball faster? Complete the explanation:When I convert the Bluebirds pitcher's speed to the same units as the Robins pitcher's speed the speed is __ mi/h. Since the Bluebirds pitcher's speed is ____ the Robins pitcher's speed, the pitcher on the ____ throws a faster ball.
ANSWER and EXPLANATION
We want to solve the problem by using dimensional analysis.
To do this, let us convert the speed of the Bluebirds baseball to miles per hour.
We have that:
1 feet per second = 0.6818 miles per hour
125.4 feet per second = 85.50 miles per hour
As we can see the baseball of the Bluebirds is slower than the Robins (90 miles per hour)
Now, to complete the explanation:
When I convert the Bluebirds pitcher's speed to the same units as the Robins pitcher's speed, the speed is _85.50_ mi/h.
Since the Bluebirds pitcher's speed is _less than_ the Robins pitcher's speed, the pitcher on the __Robins_ throws a faster ball.

an equation that represents a vertical shrink by a factor of 1/4 of the graph of g(x)=|x| is y = |x|/4
What is vertical stretch/vertical compression ?
• A vertical stretch is derived if the constant is greater than one while the vertical compression is derived if the constant is between 0 and 1.
• Vertical stretch means that the function is taller as a result of it being stretched while vertical compress is shorter due to it being compressed and is therefore the most appropriate answer.
The y-values are multiplied by a value between 0 and 1, which causes them to travel in the direction of the x-axis. This is known as a vertical shrink and tends to flatten the graph. A point (a,b) on the graph of y=f(x) y = f (x) shifts to a point (a,kb) (a, k b) on the graph of y=kf(x) y = k f (x) in both scenarios.
The function g(x) is defined as |x|.
To vertically shrink the graph of g(x) by a factor of 1/4, divide the function by 4.
g(x) = f(x)/3

Benjamin & Associates, a real estate developer, recently built 185 condominiums in McCall,Idaho. The condos were either three-bedroom units or four-bedroom units. If the total numberof bedrooms in the entire complex is 657, how many three-bedroom units are there? How manyfour-bedroom units are there?
we have the following:
x = number of three bedroom
y = number of four bedroom
therefore,
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=185 \\ 3x+4y=657 \end{gathered}[/tex]Suppose a basketball player has made 359 out of 449 free throws. If the player makes the next 3 free throws, I will pay you $39. Otherwise you pay me $43.
Step 2 of 2 : If you played this game 623 times how much would you expect to win or lose?
Answer: expect to lose 679.07 dollars
==========================================================
Explanation:
Assuming each free throw is independent of any other, the probability of making the next free throw is 359/449
The probability of making 3 in a row is (359/449)^3 = 0.511145 approximately which represents the probability of earning the $39
That must mean 1-0.511145 = 0.488855 is the approximate probability of losing $43
Let's make a table of outcomes and their associated probabilities.
X = amount of money the player earns (the person shooting the free throws)
[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2}\text{X} & \text{P(X)}\\\cline{1-2}39 & 0.511145\\\cline{1-2}-43 & 0.488855\\\cline{1-2}\end{array}[/tex]
Then from here we'll multiply each X and P(X) value for each separate row.
Example: 39*0.511145 = 19.934655
Let's form a third column of these products
[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \cline{1-3}\text{X} & \text{P(X)} & \text{X}*\text{P(X)}\\\cline{1-3}39 & 0.511145 & 19.934655\\\cline{1-3}-43 & 0.488855 & -21.020765\\\cline{1-3}\end{array}[/tex]
Add up everything in the X*P(X) column and you should get roughly -1.08611 which rounds to -1.09
The player expects, on average, to lose about $1.09 each time they play this game. Playing 623 times means they should expect to lose 623*1.09 = 679.07 dollars
Of course, given the nature of this random process, it's not a guarantee they will lose this amount. This is just the average of many attempts.
