What is the value of x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
inessss [21]3 years ago

You have to use pythagorean theorem which means a^2+b^2=c^2 because no angle is given

c is going to be the longest side or opp to 90 degree.

so c=13 and b=12

a^2+ (12^2)= 13^2

a^2 + 144  = 169

a^2=25

a=5

solve for a, can you do that?

a=5

hope that helps

A frosting is made of cream cheese and powdered sugar in the ratio 3:2. If you use 120g or cream cheese, how much powdered sugar
siniylev [52]

Answer: 80 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The frosting is made of cream cheese and Powdered sugar in the ratio of 3:2.

If 120 g of cheese is used

Assume the quantity of powdered sugar is x

So, we can write the ratio as

\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}=\dfrac{120}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{2}{3}\times 120\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{2}{3}\times 3\times 40\\\\\Rightarrow x=80\ g

So, 80 g of powdered sugar is used.

Determine whether the value is a discrete random​ variable, continuous random​ variable, or not a random variable. a. The number
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a. Discrete

b. Discrete

c. Not a random variable

d. Continuous

e. Discrete

f. Continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

The discrete random variable is countable while continuous random variable is measurable.

a. The number of fish caught is a discrete random variable because these are countable.

b. The number of text book authors are also countable so it is a discrete random variable.

c. The political party affiliation of adults is not a random variable because the political party affiliation depends on person's interest and it cannot be randomly assigned to person. Also random variable is the numerical outcome of random experiment whereas political affiliation is the categorical variable that results in non numerical responses such as Democrat, Republicans etc.

d. The square footage of a house is measurable and so it is a continuous random variable.    

e. The number of free dash throw attempts are countable so it is a discrete random variable

f. The weight of Upper T dash bone steak is measurable and so it is a continuous random variable.

The ratio of Stanley's colored markers to Jiayi's markers was 4:1. Jiayi had a big art project to work on, so Stanley let her bo
son4ous [18]
To know the answer to this we work our way backwards.

First we'll have a proportion since we know Jiayi ended up with 75 markers and the ratio of Stanley's markers to Jiayi's is now 2:3. We let the number of Stanley's markers at the end be denoted by x and solve the proportion:

2:3=x:75
3x=150
x=50

We know that Stanley had 50 markers by the end, and since he let Jiayi borrow 50 markers, then he should've had 100 markers at the start.

ANSWER: Stanley started with 100 markers.
