Yasmin looked at the pattern 2, 16, 18, 54, and determined that the next number should be 162. what type of reasoning did she use?

Suppose that an airline uses a seat width of 16.516.5 in. assume men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.414.4 in. and a standard deviation of 0.90.9 in. complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) find the probability that if an individual man is randomly selected, his hip breadth will be greater than 16.516.5 in. the probability is nothing. (round to four decimal places as needed.)

Dexter read 11 science fiction books and 5 history books. lena read 9 science fiction books and 4 history books. compare the students’ ratios of science fiction books to history books. 1. determine the ratios’ form:    science fiction books to history books 2. write the ratios as fractions:    dexter: 115; lena: 94 3. rewrite with a common denominator. 4. compare. 5. answer the question. determine which shows the correct comparison of the ratios for this problem.

If m∠abc = 70°, what is m∠abd? justify your reasoning.  using the addition property of equality, 40 + 70 = 110, so m∠abd = 110°.  using the subtraction property of equality, 70 − 30 = 40, so m∠abd = 30°.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + m∠abd = 70. so, m∠abd = 30° using the subtraction property of equality.  using the angle addition postulate, 40 + 70 = m∠abd. so, m∠abd = 110° using the addition property of equality.
