Answer:

$Leg\ 1 = 8$

$Leg\ 2 = 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: See Attachment

Required

Determine the length of the legs

To do this, we apply Pythagoras theorem.

$Hyp^2 = Adj^2 + Opp^2$

In this case:

$17^2 = x^2 + (2x- 1)^2$

Open Bracket

$17^2 = x^2 + 4x^2- 2x-2x + 1$

$17^2 = 5x^2 - 4x + 1$

$289= 5x^2 - 4x + 1$

Collect Like Terms

$5x^2 - 4x + 1 - 289 = 0$

$5x^2 - 4x - 288 = 0$

Solving using quadratic formula:

$x = \frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

So:

$x = 8$ or $x = -7.2$

Since, x can't be negative, then:

$x = 8$

One of the leg is:

$Leg\ 1 = x$

$Leg\ 1 = 8$

$Leg\ 2 = 2x - 1$

$Leg\ 2 = 2*8 - 1$

$Leg\ 2 = 16 - 1$

$Leg\ 2 = 15$

Lorenzo and his family were on a road trip. His parents told him that they drove 252 miles during the first 312 hours of the tri

Elis [28]

Answer: 6.19 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1): First you have to divide 312 by 252 to get the miles per hour.

312 / 252 = 1.23

2): Secondly, multiple 1.23 by 5 hours

5 x 1.23 = 6.19

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(y-5) / (7-5) = (x-1) / (2-1)

(y-5) / 2 = x-1

y-5 = 2x -2

Answer:

$P(0.26 \leq p \leq 0.43)=0.7204-0.0032=0.7172$

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p=0.4,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.4(1-0.4)}{91}}=0.0514)$
