\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b \qquad \begin{cases} c=\stackrel{hypotenuse}{13}\\ a=\stackrel{adjacent}{12}\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \sqrt{13^2-12^2}=b\implies \sqrt{25}=b\implies 5=b

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

13 is the hypotenuse because it is the longest side.

12^2 + b^2 = 13^2

144 + b^2 = 169

subtract the 144 from both sides to isolate the variable you are solving for

b^2 = 25

Square root both sides to solve

b = 5

Read the following and answer the questions that follow.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(7/12) of 840 attended the concert:

(7/12)*(840) = 490 students attended the Spring Concert.

(840 - 490) = 350 did not attend

(350/840) is the fraction of students who did not attend.  This can be reduced to (35/84)

(350/840) = 0.4167 or 41.67% did not attend.

Use a normal approximation to find the probability of the indicated number of voters. In this case assume that 150 eligible vote
alexdok [17]
The number of people who voted follows a binomial distribution with probability of having voted p=0.22 and n=150 subjects, which means the approximating normal distribution should have mean np=33 and standard deviation \sqrt{np(1-p)}\approx5.07.

With the continuity correction, you have

The area of a door is 3024 square inches. If
olasank [31]

Answer:

Lets take all factors into consideration first

The door is a rectangle and the area of a rectangle is length times width

Let the width be w

Let the length be l

Equation length × breadth = area

(w+48)w = 3024

w^2 + 48w = 3024

w^2 + 48w - 3024 = 0

w^2 + 84w - 36w - 3024 = 0

w(w + 84) -36 ( w + 84) = 0

(w + 84) (w - 36) = 0

w + 84 = 0 AND w - 36 =0

w = -84 and w = 36

Since width cannot be negative, the right answer is 36

How did I get 84 and 36? Well, I had to factorize 3024 and since 84 times 36 is 3024 and 84 minus 36 is 48, I chose them.
