The perimeter of a triangle is 117 inches. If one side of the triangle is 11 more than the shorter side, and the longer side is

25 more than the shorter side, find the lengths of the three sides?

Let the shorter side be x.

"one side of the triangle is 11 more than the shorter side" is x + 11

"and the longer side is 25 more than the shorter side" is x + 25


x + x + 11 + x + 25 = 117


3x + 36 = 117


3x = 81


x = 27


x + 11 = 38


x + 25 = 52


Answer: The sides have lengths 27 in., 38 in., and 52 in.

Suppose a class of 50 students has 20 males and 30 females. The insturctor will pick 1 (different) student to compete in 3 diffe
Pie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total = 50

Males = 20

Females = 30

a) P(exactly 1 female) = P(1 female , 2 male)

(30C1 * 20C2) / (50C3) = 30*190/19,600 = 0.2908

b) P(at least 2 males) = 1 - (P(0 males) + P(1 males))

= 1 - 30C3 * 20C0/50C3 - 30C2 * 20C1/50C3

= 1 - 4060*1/19,600 - 435*20/19,600 = 6840/19600 = 0.3489

34. For the following exercises, given each set of information, find a linear equation satisfying the conditions, if possible.
skad [1K]

Answer:

The linear equation for the line which passes through the points given as (-1,4) and (5,2), is written in the point-slope form as $y=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{13}{3}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

A condition is given that a line passes through the points whose coordinates are (-1,4) and (5,2).

It is asked to find the linear equation which satisfies the given condition.

Step 1 of 3

Determine the slope of the line.

The points through which the line passes are given as (-1,4) and (5,2). Next, the formula for the slope is given as,

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Substitute 2&4 for $y_{2}$ and $y_{1}$ respectively, and $5 \&-1$ for $x_{2}$ and $x_{1}$ respectively in the above formula. Then simplify to get the slope as follows,

m=\frac{2-4}{5-(-1)}$\\ $m=\frac{-2}{6}$\\ $m=-\frac{1}{3}$

Step 2 of 3

Write the linear equation in point-slope form.

A linear equation in point slope form is given as,

$y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right)$

Substitute $-\frac{1}{3}$ for m,-1 for $x_{1}$, and 4 for $y_{1}$ in the above equation and simplify using the distributive property as follows,

y-4=-\frac{1}{3}(x-(-1))$\\ $y-4=-\frac{1}{3}(x+1)$\\ $y-4=-\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1}{3}$

Step 3 of 3

Simplify the equation further.

Add 4 on each side of the equation $y-4=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1}{3}$, and simplify as follows,

y-4+4=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1}{3}+4$\\ $y=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1+12}{3}$\\ $y=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{13}{3}$

This is the required linear equation.
