If the perimeter of a square is 20, what is the length of the diagonal ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rina8888 [55]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if you know that the perimeter is 20,

then you have to divide by 4 to get the length of one side

20/4=5.

Draw the diagonal and write in it's length as x.

Use Pythagorean formula

Then know that a2+b2=c2

and use the two side lengths as a and b.

This gives you the equation

5^2+5^2=x^2.

Do the calculations and solve the equation.

25+25=x^2

50=x^2

√50=x.

Therefore x=√50 where x equals the length of the diagonal.

Triss [41]

Answer:

$9261

$1261

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal: $8000

Interest rate: 5% PA compounded annually

Time: 3 years

  • Sum = $8000*(1.05)³ = $9261
  • Interest = $9261 - $8000 = $1261

The scores on the GMAT entrance exam at an MBA program in the Central Valley of California are normally distributed with a mean
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

58.32% probability that a randomly selected application will report a GMAT score of less than 600

93.51%  probability that a sample of 50 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600

98.38% probability that a sample of 100 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 591, \sigma = 42

What is the probability that a randomly selected application will report a GMAT score of less than 600?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 600. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{600 - 591}{42}

Z = 0.21

Z = 0.21 has a pvalue of 0.5832

58.32% probability that a randomly selected application will report a GMAT score of less than 600

What is the probability that a sample of 50 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600?

Now we have n = 50, s = \frac{42}{\sqrt{50}} = 5.94

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 600. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{600 - 591}{5.94}

Z = 1.515

Z = 1.515 has a pvalue of 0.9351

93.51%  probability that a sample of 50 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600

What is the probability that a sample of 100 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600?

Now we have n = 50, s = \frac{42}{\sqrt{100}} = 4.2

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{600 - 591}{4.2}

Z = 2.14

Z = 2.14 has a pvalue of 0.9838

98.38% probability that a sample of 100 randomly selected applications will report an average GMAT score of less than 600

Solve y = x - 5 if the domain is 5
Lunna [17]
If the domain is 5, you just put that five where you find an x. So,
y = 5 - 5
y = 0

Domain means those are the numbers that will be set as x's in the equation

A computer technician charges a flat rate for home vist plus $55 per hour. The technician bills $190 for a 2-hour home vist to i
djyliett [7]
Y - 190 = 55(x - 2)....distribute thru the parenthesis
y - 190 = 55x - 110....now add 190 to both sides
y = 55x - 110 + 190..simplify
y = 55x + 80 <== slope intercept form (y = mx + b)
