Well that's quite easy. There is a short cut. So 12 divided by 2 is 4. Then 6 divided by 2 is 3. There is a thing called a Pythagorean Triple. And the first one is 3,4 (which is the missing side) and 5. That is the most commonly used set and so are the number's multiples. Therefore the missing leg's length is 4 centimeters.

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.  Thus,
the sum of 31, x+4 and 3x+9 must be 180.

31 + x + 4 + 3x + 9 = 180,     or    44 + 4x = 180


While it's not necessary, y ou could reduce this equation before solving for x:

11 + x = 45.             Then x = 34 degrees.

The three angles are then:

31
34+4 = 38
3(34) + 9 = 111

Check:  show that 31+38+111 = 180 (degrees)

What is the solution to the system of equations represented by the two equations?
vesna_86 [32]
x = 3 ; y = 1

Given:
y = -2x + 7
y = 1/3x

Substitute y by its value to find x.
y = y
1/3 x = -2x + 7
x = (-2x + 7) ÷ 1/3

x = (-2x + 7) * 3/1
x = -6x + 21
x + 6x = 21
7x = 21
7x/7 = 21/7
x = 3

Substitute x by its value to solve for y.
y = -2x + 7
y = -2(3) + 7
y = -6 + 7
y = 1

y = 1/3 x
y = 1/3 * 3
y = (1*3)/3
y = 3/3
y = 1

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabolas equation is

(y - k)^2 = 4p(x - h)

Where h,k is the vertex

Substituting the vertex ad (2,-4)

(y - -4)^2 = 4p(x - 2)

(y +4)^2 = 4p(x - 2)

We need to find p from the other point they give us (-3,-3)

(-3 +4)^2 = 4p(-3 - 2)

1^2 = 4p (-5)

1 = -20p

Divide by -20

1/-20 = -20p/-20

-1/20 = p

Substituting back into the equation

(y +4)^2 = 4(-1/20)(x - 2)

Simplifying

(y +4)^2 = (-1/5)(x - 2)

FOILing

y^2 +8y +16 = -1/5x +2/5

Multiply by 5

5y^2 +40y +80 = -x +2

Subtract 2

5y^2 +40y +80-2 = -x +2-2

5y^2 +40y +78 = -x

Multiply by -1

-5y^2 -40y -78 = x

The coefficient of y^2  is -5

A computer manufacturing company has sent a mail survey to 2,800 of its randomly selected customers that have purchased a new la
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion of customers satisfied with their new computer is (0.77, 0.83).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 96% confidence interval for the proportion.

We consider the sample size to be the customers that responded the survey (n=800), as we can not assume the answer for the ones that did not answer.

The sample proportion is p=0.8.

p=X/n=640/800=0.8

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.8*0.2}{800}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.0002}=0.014

The critical z-value for a 96% confidence interval is z=2.054.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=2.054 \cdot 0.014=0.03

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8-0.03=0.77\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.8+0.03=0.83

The 96% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.77, 0.83).
