The equation can be used to find the missing leg in the triangle 20^{2} = 16^{2} +a^{2}.

<h3>What is the right triangle?</h3>

A right-angle triangle is a triangle that has a side opposite to the right angle the largest side and is referred to as the hypotenuse.

It is given that a right triangle has a side length of 16 meters and a hypotenuse of 20 meters.

From a Pythagoras theorem

b^{2} = c^{2} +a^{2} \\20^{2} = 16^{2} +a^{2}\\20^{2}-16^{2} =a^{2}\\a^{2} = 20^{2}-16^{2} \\

Thus, the equation can be used to find the missing leg in the triangle 20^{2}-16^{2} =a^{2}.

Orlov [11]

1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to subtract simple fractions to find the amount of milk that can be added to a cup of coffee

Given

Total Capacity of a cup = 7/9 pints

Coffee to be added in a cup = 2/3 pints

So in order to find the amount of milk that can be added we have to subtract the amount of coffee from the total capacity of cup.

So,

Hence,

1/9 pints of milk can be added by a customer

A bouquet of flowers contains a total of 24 red and white roses. The number of red roses is 4 less than three times the number o
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

White roses - 7

Red roses - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up proportional equations

White roses = x

Red roses = 3x - 4

Set equal to 24

x + 3x - 4 = 24

4x - 4 = 24

4x = 28

x = 7

x is white roses, so there are 7

Plug x value into red rose equation

3(7)-4

21-4 = 17 red roses

Check

17+7 = 24

What is the probability that a randomly selected male will have a foot length between 8 and 12.5 inches? P(8 &lt; r &lt; 12.5)=
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

0.8185 or 81.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean length (μ) of an adult foot is 11 and the standard deviation (σ) is 1.5.

The z score is a measure in statistic used to determine the amount of standard deviation by which the raw score (x) is above or below the mean. If the raw score is above the mean, the z score is positive  and if the raw score is below the mean the z sore is negative. It is given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

To calculate the probability that a randomly selected male will have a foot length between 8 and 12.5 inches, we first calculate the z score for 8 inches and then for 12.5 inches.

For 8 inches:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{8-11}{1.5}=-2

For 12.5 inches:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{12.5-11}{1.5}=1

From the normal distribution table, The probability that a randomly selected male will have a foot length between 8 and 12.5 inches = P(8 < x < 12.5) = P(-2 < z < 1) = P(z < 1)  - P(z < -2) = 0.8413 - 0.0228 = 0.8185 = 81.85%
