Answer:

The two numbers are 3 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number be <em>a</em> and the other be <em>b</em>.

We're given:

  • a-b=3
  • \dfrac{a}{b}=2

Isolate <em>a</em> in the second equation and solve for <em>b:</em>

\dfrac{a}{b}=2\\\\a=2b

a-b=3\\2b-b=3\\b=3

Therefore, the second number is 3.

a-3=3\\a=6

Therefore, the first number is 6.

Find the mean for the set of data.<br> 0.2, 0.21, 0.17, 3.22, 0.2
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the mean of the list:

(0.2, 0.21, 0.17, 3.22, 0.2)

The mean of a list of numbers is given by:

(sum of elements)/(number of elements)

(sum of elements) = 0.2 + 0.21 + 0.17 + 3.22 + 0.2:

(0.2 + 0.21 + 0.17 + 3.22 + 0.2)/(number of elements)

Counting, we see that the list has 5 elements:

(0.2 + 0.21 + 0.17 + 3.22 + 0.2)/5

0.2 + 0.21 + 0.17 + 3.22 + 0.2 = 4:

4/5

4/5 = 0.8:

Answer:  0.8

The volume of a prism is area of the base times height.
This is a triangular prism. The base is a triangle.
The volume is area of the base times height, and the base is a triangle.
Find the area of the triangle and multiply by the height of the prism.

V  = volume of the prism
A = area of the base
H = height of the prism
h = height of the triangle
b = base of the triangle

V = AH

V = (1/2)bhH

V = (1/2) * 9 ft * 7 ft * 15 ft

V = 472.5 ft^3

Given the right triangle below, what is the length of the hypotenuse
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

5 sqrt(10) = c

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

9^2 + 13^2 = c^2

81 + 169 = c^2

250 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(250) = c

sqrt(25) sqrt(10) = c

5 sqrt(10) = c
