Answer:

The correct option is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The HL theorem states that 'if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.'

From the given figure it is noticed that triangle ABC and triangle EDC. In triangle ABC and triangle EDC, hypotenuses of triangles are AB and DE respectively.

To use HL hypotenuse and one leg of triangles must be equal.

$AB=DE$ (hypotenuse)

$AC=DC$ (leg)

$BC=EC$ (leg)

Therefore the additional information $AC=DC$ will allow you to prove the triangles congruent by the HL Theorem. Option 3 is correct.

The additional information that will allow you to prove the triangles congruent by the HL theorem is :
ac = dc
it has congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding congruent leg

hope this helps

Answer:

1/x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of the function, try switching the x value with the y value or function value

something like: x=1/g(x)-2

then, just manipulate the equation so that g(x) is by itself again, but this time, since it is an inverse, it's denoted as g-1(x)

x=1/g-1(x)-2

x+2=1/g-1(x)

(g-1(x))(x+2)=1

g-1(x)=1/(x+2)

When g ( t ) = 3 t 2 + 2 t + 1 , evaluate g ( − 4 )

Luda [366]

Answer:

Just substitue every 't' with -4

Step-by-step explanation:

g(-4) = 3*(-4)*(-4) + 2*(-4) + 1

g(-4) = 64-8+1

g(-4) = 57

Pharmaceutical companies prefers experimental studies to conducting surveys and observational studies because companies can manipulate or suggest methods easily to have good outcomes and they are able to directly observe the results. Experimental studies is a type of study in which a procedure and method is intentionally introduced.

A gallup survey indicated that 72% of 18- to 29-year-olds, if given choice, would prefer to start their own business rather than

Neko [114]

Answer:

The probability that no more than 70% would prefer to start their own business is 0.1423.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a Gallup survey indicated that 72% of 18- to 29-year-olds, if given choice, would prefer to start their own business rather than work for someone else.

Let $\hat p$ = sample proportion of people who prefer to start their own business

The z-score probability distribution for the sample proportion is given by;

Z = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, p = population proportion who would prefer to start their own business = 72%

n = sample of 18-29 year-olds = 600

Now, the probability that no more than 70% would prefer to start their own business is given by = P( $\hat p$ $\leq$ 70%)

P( $\hat p$ $\leq$ 70%) = P( $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ $\leq$ $\frac{0.70-0.72}{\sqrt{\frac{0.70(1-0.70)}{600} } }$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ -1.07) = 1 - P(Z < 1.07)

= 1 - 0.8577 = 0.1423

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.07 in the z table which has an area of 0.8577.
