Answer:
One leg - 15 inches
Second leg - 36 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
One leg - x inches.
Second leg - (x + 21) inches.
Hypotenuse - 39 inches.
Using Pythagorean theorem
x² + (x + 21)² = 39²
x² + x² + 2*21x + 21² = 39²
2x² + 42x - 39² + 21² = 0
2x² + 42x - 1080 = 0
x² + 21x - 540 = 0
(x - 15)(x + 36) = 0
x = 15, x = - 36
We can use only positive value.
One leg - x inches = 15 inches
Second leg - (x + 21) inches = 15+21=36 inches.

-2v=-16
v=8
2.)x/3-10=-12
x/3-10=-12
x/3=-2
x=-6
3.) x/4+10=14
x/4=4
x=16
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>We have similar triangles here.</u>
- BC║DE, AB║AD and AC║AE ⇒ ΔADE ~ ΔABC
<u>The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles is same:</u>
- BC/DE = AC/AE
- BC / 2 = 30/3
- BC / 2 = 10
- BC = 2*10
- BC = 20 m
The distribution of the number of occurrences of the letter t on the pages of a book is found to be a normal distribution with a mean of 44 and a standard deviation of 18. If there are 500 pages in the book, which sentence most closely summarizes the data?
A. The letter t occurs less than 26 times on approximately 170 of these pages.
B. The letter t occurs less than 26 times on approximately 15 of these pages.
C. The letter t occurs more than 26 times on approximately 420 of these pages.
D. The letter t occurs more than 26 times on approximately 80 of these pages.
.Answer:
<span>mean = 44 </span>
<span>sd = 18 </span>
<span>that means that "26" is 1 s.d. down, or at the 16th %ile </span>
<span>so, there is a .16 chance that "t" will occur less than 26 times on any single page. </span>
<span>consequently, there is a .84 chance that it will occur more than 26 times on any single page. </span>
<span>Using that information, and knowing that 16% of 500 is 80, and 84% of 500 is 420, can you see where "C" is correct? </span>
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
- According to the question, the right combination of 2 wires cut (out of the 4 wires ) will defuse the bomb. To find all the possible combinations we using the following formulae;
nCr = n! / r! * (n - r)!
⁴₂C = 4! / 2! * (4-2)!
⁴₂C = 24 / 2 * 2
⁴₂C = 6
- There are a possible 6 combinations
- Therefore for probability of cutting the right combination of 2 wires is 1/6
