Answer: x = 5

------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------

Explanation:

We have a right triangle as indicated by the square angle marker. Two of the sides are known: specifically the hypotenuse (13) and one of the legs (12). The other leg (x) is unknown.

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find x

a = 12 is one of the known legs
b = x is the unknown leg
c = 13 is the hypotenuse

Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + x^2 = 13^2
144 + x^2 = 169
144 + x^2-144 = 169-144 ... subtract 144 from both sides
x^2 = 25
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(25)  ... apply square root to both sides
x = 5 

Side Note: Keep in mind that x can't be negative so it doesn't make sense to use the plus/minus here. We'll only stick with the positive version.

Assume that advanced students average 93% on an achievement test and regular students averaged 75%. If 100 advanced students and
Lemur [1.5K]
Average (mean) = (sum of all the data) / (# of data)

sum of all the data = (average)(# of data)

Thus for 100 students with an average of 93,
sum of all data = (93)(100) = 9300

and for 300 students with an average of 75,
sum of all data = (75)(300) = 22500

Therefore you would expect the overall average to be
(9300 + 22500) / (100 + 300) = 79.5 %

Now if there are x # of advanced students and y # of regular students, then

x + y = 90 (total # of students) and 93x + 75y = 87(x + y) (overall average)

The second equation can be simplified to x - 2y = 0

Subtracting the two equations yields

x = 60 and y = 90

Therefore you would need 60 advanced and 30 regular students.

I need the answer and maybe someone can tell me how to do it? Please and Thanks!! :))
UNO [17]

Answer:

83

Step-by-step explanation:

The 126 angle is an exterior angle of the triangle.

The 43 and x angles are the two remote interior angles of the 126 angle.

<em>Theorem:</em>

<em>The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle equals the sum of the measures of the remote interior angles.</em>

x + 43 = 126

x = 83

What would a 44% decrease of 13 be?
TEA [102]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

p% = p 'out of one hundred',

p% is read p 'percent',

p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.

44% = 44/100 = 44 ÷ 100 = 0.44.

100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1.

Decrease number by 44% of its value.

Percentage decrease = 44% × 13

New value = 13 - Percentage decrease
