10√3 cm.
The radius of an incircle of a hexagon is the same measure as the apothem. find the apothem by taking half of the central angle and create a right triangle perpendicular to the side. The central angle is 60 so the angle opposite the side length will be 30. this creates a 30-60-90 triangle with the ratio x:x√3:2x. half the side opposite 30 is 10, so x=10. the base angle of the side is 60 so it will be x√3. plug in 10 for x to get 10√3 cm.

Marizza181 [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the number outside the brackets to the numbers inside:

So,

9 * 9x = 81x

9 * 2y = 18y

9 x -6 = -54

So the simplified or equivalent expression is:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use a Z-table for this.

There are different tables, in this table i searched for the probability of 97% because that equivalent to the top 3%.

for 0.97, Z = 1.88

The formula of Z is:

$Z = (x-mean)/(st. dev.)$

Solving x:

$1.88 = (x-150)/10 \\x = 168.8 = 169$
