Draw the diagonals forming 4 triangles. Since it is a rhombus, it is also a parallelogram. The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

AB congruent AD, defn of rhombus

AE congruent AE, reflexive equality

BE congruent DE, diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other

Triangle ABE congruent triangle ADE by SSS

Angle BED is a straight angle, hence measures 180 degrees.

Angle AEB congruent Angle AED by CPCT

measure of BED equals measure AEB + measure AED

measure of BED equals 2 times measure AEB

measure AEB is 90

The given trinomial cannot be factored over the rational numbers. Depending on your instructions you can either declare the trinomial to be prime, or factor it over the irrationals. If your instructor expects you to factor it over the irrationals, set the trinomial equal to zero and solve using the quadratic formula. You will obtain two roots, and . The factors of the trinomial are then and .

Probability-and-statistics/602653: Below are the home states of 19 college professors.
New Jersey Ohio Michigan Georgia Nebraska
Wisconsin Ohio South Carolina Pennsylvania Michigan
Georgia New Jersey Wisconsin Georgia Ohio
Florida Georgia New Jersey South Carolina

i. Make a frequency table using these 9 states:
Florida
Georgia
Michigan
Nebraska
New Jersey
Ohio
Pennsylvania
South Carolina
Wisconsin


My work:
States Tally Frequency
Florida | 1
Georgia |||| 4
Michigan || 2
Nebraska | 1
New Jersey ||| 3
Ohio ||| 3
Pennsylvania | 1
South Carolina || 2
Wisconsin || 2


ii. What is (are) the mode(s)? There are 3 (1s) and 3 (2s)
iii. Does it make sense to talk about the average for this data? Why or why not? Really not sure how to come up with this answer
iv. Using your frequency table draw a pie chart to display the distribution of home states by filling in the following table:
Home State Frequency Percentage of total Measure of Central Angle (in degrees)
Florida
Georgia
Michigan
Nebraska
New Jersey
Ohio
Pennsylvania
South Carolina
Wisconsin

My Work:
Home State Frequency Percentage of total Measure of Central Angle (in degrees)
Florida 1 1/19*100=5.26% .0526*360=18.94 degrees
Georgia 4 4/19*100=21.05% .2105*360=75.78 degrees
Michigan 2 2/19*100=10.53% .1053*360=37.91 degrees
Nebraska 1 1/19*100=5.26% .0526*360=18.94 degrees
New Jersey 3 3/19*100=15.79% .1579*360=56.84 degrees
Ohio 3 3/19*100=15.79% .1579*360=56.84 degrees
Pennsylvania 1 1/19*100=5.26% .0526*360=18.94 degrees
South Carolina 2 2/19*100=10.53% .1053*360=37.91 degrees
Wisconsin 2 2/19*100=10.53% .1053*360=37.91 degrees

Anyone know if this is correct? And can someone tell me how to figure out part iii.?

The mean (or average) doesn't tell you anything meaningful about this data. The mode is a much more meaningful measure of central tendancy in this case, and the mode of this data (4 in Georgia) is going to stick right out when you create your pie chart because Georgia's piece of the pie will be larger than the others. In contrast to the mean for this data, the mode points to a specific data point where as there is no place that has an "average" number of college professors.

The wife gets 30%, the children each get 15%, and the brother gets 5%. You don't say how many children there are, but it must be more than one because you used the plural.

If 2 children:



If 3 children:



If 4 children:



The terms of the will cannot be fulfilled if 5 or more children so we must assume that there are 2, 3, or 4 children since you cannot have fractional parts of a child (despite what King Solomon was reported to have suggested).

Hence, the answer is either 35%, 20%, or 5% of the total amount of the estate. Do the arithmetic.
