A ship travels 10 miles from Point A to Point B, makes a turn of 112, and travels 16 miles to Point C. If the ship travels direc

tly from Point C back to Point A, how many miles will it travel on the last leg of the trip (from Point C to Point A)? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a mile.

This is Pythagorean's Theorem, with one leg being 10 and the hypotenuse being 16.  Using those values in the theorem looks like this:
10^{2} + b^{2} = 16^{2}
and 100+ b^{2} =256
and b^{2} =256-100
so b^{2} =156
Take the square root of both sides to find that b = 12.5

What divisor is represented by the synthetic division below? A vertical line and horizontal line combine to make a L shape. Ther
g100num [7]

One of the ways of dividing polynomials is by synthetic division

The divisor of the synthetic division is x + 5

<h3>How to determine the divisor of the division</h3>

From the question, we understand that:

Entry -5 is on the outside to the left of the shape

The entry represents the zero of the divisor.

Next, we set this entry to the variable (assume the variable is x)

So, we have:

x = -5

Add 5 to both sides

x + 5= 0

Hence, the divisor of the synthetic division is x + 5

slega [8]

Answer:

D)

Step-by-step explanation:

ASSUMING NORMAL DISTRIBUTION, LESS THAN 10% AT LOWER END

OF 15.34 MEANS     [DENOTING MEAN BY M AND Standard Deviation. BY S]

M±AS=20%....................M-AS=15.34

FOR 20% LEVEL .......A=1.281........FROM TABLES

M-1.281×S=15.34............................1

SIMILARLY

M±BS=40%...................M+BS=16.31

FOR 40% LEVEL .............B=0.841...................FROM TABLES

M+0.841×S=16.31.............................2

EQN.2 - EQN.1

2.122×S=0.97

S=0.457=0.46

M=15.926= 15.93

HENCE, D IS THE ANSWER

that is D. μ = 15.93, σ =.46

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

f(x)=x(x-5)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the steps of the factorization of the polynomial f(x) is not given, I will proceed to give the correct factorization of f(x).

f(x)=x³-3x²-10x

First, we factor out x since it is a common term.

f(x)=x(x²-3x-10)

Next, we factorize the quadratic expression x²-3x-10.

f(x)=x(x²-5x+2x-10)

f(x)=x(x(x-5)+2(x-5))

f(x)=x(x-5)(x+2)

The correct factorization of the polynomial f(x)=x³-3x²-10x is: f(x)=x(x-5)(x+2)
