The base is 11 ft and the legs are both 19ft.

x+2x-36+2x-36=588

Addition Property of Equality

x+2x+2x=660

Combine Like Terms

5x=660

Division Property of Equality

x=132in

2(132)-36=228in

132in÷12=11ft

228in÷12=19ft

WILL GIVE BRANLIEST!!! Pls help! Determine the coordinates of the point on the straight line y=3x+1 that is equidistant from the
iren [92.7K]

Let , coordinate of points are P( h,k ).

Also , k = 3h + 1

Distance of P from origin :

d=\sqrt{h^2+k^2}

Distance of P from ( -3, 4 ) :

d=\sqrt{(h+3)^2+(k-4)^2}

Now , these distance are equal :

h^2+(3h+1)^2=(h+3)^2+(3h+1-4)^2\\\\h^2+(3h+1)^2=(h+3)^2+(3h-3)^2

Solving above equation , we get :

P=(\dfrac{16}{21},\dfrac{23}{7})

Hence , this is the required solution.

I need help with this somebody help
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Width: x + 3

(Length, width):

(5,4) (6,5) (7,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 7x + 12

x² + 4x + 3x + 12

x(x + 4) + 3(x + 4)

(x + 4)(x + 3)

Longer one is the length,

With is (x + 3)

x = 1,

5 × 4

x = 2,

6 × 5

x = 3,

7 × 6

At a new exhibit in the Museum of Science, people are asked to choose between 94 or 220 random draws from a machine. The machine
Tresset [83]

Answer:

0.0869 = 8.69% probability of getting more than 61% green balls.

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 normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, 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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean \mu = p and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

The machine is known to have 99 green balls and 78 red balls.

This means that p = \frac{99}{99+78} = 0.5593

Mean and standard deviation:

\mu = p = 0.5593

s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.5593*0.4407}{99+78}} = 0.0373

a. Calculate the probability of getting more than 61% green balls.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.61. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{0.61 - 0.5593}{0.0373}

Z = 1.36

Z = 1.36 has a pvalue of 0.9131

1 - 0.9131 = 0.0869

0.0869 = 8.69% probability of getting more than 61% green balls.
