Answer:

17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the Pythagorean theorem to answer this question.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

15^2 + 8^2 = c^2

225 + 64 = c^2

289=c^2

c^2=289

c=√289

c=17 feet

Question 3<br> Find the equation of the line joining (-2,4) and (3,7)
otez555 [7]

Answer:

y = (3/5)x+26/5 or 5y = 3x+26

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

The equation of a line in two point form

(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = (y-y₁)/(x-x₁)............... Equation 1

From the question,

Given: y₂ = 7, y₁ = 4, x₂ = 3, x₁ = -2

Substitute these values into equation 1

(7-4)/[3-(-2)] = (y-4)/(x+2)

3/5 = (y-4)/(x+2)

5(y-4) = 3(x+2)

5y-20 = 3x+6

5y = 3x+6+20

5y = 3x+26

y = (3/5)x+26/5

Hence the equation of the line is y = (3/5)x+26/5 or 5y = 3x+26

Triss [41]

Answer:

x= 1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2x = -10

multiply by 2x on each side

2x(-1/2x) = -10*2x

-1 = -20x

divide by -20

-1/-20 = -20x/-20

1/20 =x

1. Fixed number of trials

2. Exactly two outcomes

3. Outcomes are independent of each other

4. Probability of all the outcomes remains constant from trial to trial.

Success in the given experiment is that the baby recovers fully.

Hospital is caring for 6 babies , n = 6

p = 0.20 ( Success )

q = 1 - 0.20 = 0.80 ( Not a success )

Value of random variable x is the number of babies which are recovering fully, x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6
