Answer:

18 inches and 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, The base of a triangle is twice of the height.

Area = 81 sq inches

Let, Base (b) = 2x

Height (h) = x

Area of the triangle = \frac{1}{2}bh

\frac{1}{2}bh = 81

or, x^{2} = 8

Base = 2×9 inches = 18 inches

Height = 9 inches

Suppose the average price for new cars in 2012 has a mean of $30,100 and a standard deviation of $5,600. Based on this informati
KatRina [158]

Answer:

($13,300,$46,900)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in he question:

Mean, μ = $30,100

Standard Deviation, σ = $5,600

Chebyshev's Theorem:

  • According to  theorem atleast 1 - \dfrac{1}{k^2}  percent of data lies within 2 standard deviations of mean.
  • For k = 3,

1 -\dfrac{1}{(3)^2} = 0.889 \approx 89\%

Thus, 89% of data lies within three standard deviation of mean.

\mu - 3(\sigma) = 30100 - 3(5600) = 13300\\\mu + 3(\sigma) = 30100 + 3(5600) = 46900

Thus, we expect at least 89% of new car prices to fall within ($13,300,$46,900)

Which is the height of the triangle?<br> ( PIC IS PROVIDE PLS HELP ME)
zysi [14]
<h3>Answer: 80 meters</h3>

This is an isosceles triangle. The dashed line is the height which is perpendicular to the base 120. The height is always perpendicular to the base. The dashed line cuts the base into two equal pieces (this only works for isosceles triangles when you cut at the vertex like this).

So we have two smaller triangles each with a base of 60 and a height of x. Focus on one of the right triangles and use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + (60)^2 = (100)^2

x^2 + 3600 = 10000

x^2 = 10000 - 3600

x^2 = 6400

x = sqrt(6400)

x = 80

Each smaller right triangle has side lengths of 60, 80, 100

Note the ratio 60:80:100 reduces to 3:4:5. A 3-4-5 right triangle is a very common pythagorean primitive.

an Carlos County Health Department reported 17 new cases of tuberculosis in the first half of 2001 and 18 additional cases durin
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

San Carlos County

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of cases of tuberculosis reported in the first half of 2001 = 17

Number of cases of tuberculosis reported in the second half = 18

Total number of cases reported = 35 (17 + 18)

Population of the county at the beginning of 2001 = 204,500

Population of the county at the end of the year = 215,000

Average population for the year = 209,750 (204,500 + 215,000)/2

Therefore, the incidence rate of tuberculosis in the county = 35/209,750 * 100

= 0.000167

b) Since the incidence rate is <1, it suggests that the population of San Carlos County is at a very reduced risk of exposure to tuberculosis.  This means that only 1 in 6,000 (209,750/35) people are exposed to the disease in the county.
