A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 25 feet and a leg of 7 feet. Which of these is the length of the other leg?

1 answer:

7 0

A^2 + b^2 = c^2...where a and b are ur legs and c is ur hypotenuse

7^2 + b^2 = 25^2
49 + b^2 = 625
b^2 = 625 - 49
b^2 = 576...take square root of both sides, eliminating the ^2
b = sq rt 576
b = 24 ft <=== length of the other leg

What is the intersection of y=7 and y=1\2x+6

kotegsom [21]

Y=7 is just a straight horizonal line that is perpendicular to the y axis at 7

and y=1/2x+6, is in y=mx+b form where m=slope and b=yintercept so

to find the intersection, yo just find when both sentances are correct so

y=7
subsitute that into y=1/2x+6

7=1/2x+6
subtract 6 from both sides
1=1/2x
multiply both sides by 2
2=x

so the point (2,7) is the intersection

Because of staffing decisions, managers of the Gibson-Marion Hotel are interested in the variability in the number of rooms occu

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

a) $s^2 =30^2 =900$

b) $\frac{(19)(30)^2}{30.144} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(19)(30)^2}{10.117}$

$567.28 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 1690.224$

c) $23.818 \leq \sigma \leq 41.112$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following question: Because of staffing decisions, managers of the Gibson-Marimont Hotel are interested in the variability in the number of rooms occupied per day during a particular season of the year. A sample of 20 days of operation shows a sample mean of 290 rooms occupied per day and a sample standard deviation of 30 rooms

Part a

For this case the best point of estimate for the population variance would be:

$s^2 =30^2 =900$

Part b

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$
