Answer:  The correct option is (B) 3.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the length of the leg s in the triangle shown in the figure.

From the figure, we note that

the given triangle is a right-angled one, where

length of the hypotenuse, H = √18 units,

length of one leg, P = 3 units

and

length of the other leg, s = B =?.

From Pythagoras theorem, we have

H^2=P^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow (\sqrt{18})^2=3^2+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow 18=9+B^2\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=18-9\\\\\Rightarrow B^2=9\\\\\Rightarrow B=3.

Thus, the length of the leg s is 3 units.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Elis [28]

Answer:

8\sqrt{6}  inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l represent the length of the square

The area of a square = l^2

That means,

l^2 = 24 km^2

Take the square root of both sides

l = \sqrt{24}

l = \sqrt{4*6

l = \sqrt{4} *\sqrt{6}

l = 2\sqrt{6}

Now lets find the perimeter

Perimeter of a square, P = 4l

P = 4* 2\sqrt{6}

P = 8\sqrt{6} inches

15s^11-25s^4 factorised <br><br> plz tell me. :)
saveliy_v [14]

For the numeric part, you'll have to find the GCD of 15 and 25, which is 5. So, we can factor a 5 and we have

5(3s^{11}-5s^4)

As for the literal part, you can factor s^4 because it's the power of s with the smallest denominator. So, we have

5s^4(3s^7-5)

Please help i've been stuck on these for a bit now!
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Q6. D

Q8. A

Step-by-step explanation:

Q6. In 40 trials, he flipped '2 heads and 1 tail' 16 times.

For 2 heads, probability= 16/40= 4/10

For 120 trials, number of times= 4/10 × 120= 48

Q8.

125x + 200 \geqslant 1200 \\ 125x \geqslant 1200 - 200 \\ 125x \geqslant 1000 \\ x \geqslant 1000 \div 125 \\ x \geqslant 8

Answer is A because the inequality shows that x is equal or greater than 8 so the dot at 8 has to be coloured.

Note that we do not change the inequality sign unless we are dividing the whole thing by -1.
