The perimeter of a triangle is 240. Its sides are proportional to 3:4:5. The largest side of the triangle is ?

1 answer:

3 0

If the sides are proportional you can use the formula:

3x + 4x + 5x = 240 and solve for x.

which is: 12x = 240
x = 20

The longest side is 5x, so the longest side is 100.

does the assumption of a poisson distribution with a mean of 6.0 seem appropriate as a probability model for these data? use 0.0

Alenkasestr [34]

The Poisson distribution with a mean of 6.0 is an appropriate model.

In mathematics and statistics, the concept of mean is crucial. The most typical or average value among a group of numbers is called the mean.
It is a statistical measure of a probability distribution's central tendency along the median and mode. It also goes by the name "expected value."
There are different ways of measuring the central tendency of a set of values. There are multiple ways to calculate the mean. Here are the two most popular ones:
Arithmetic mean is the total of the sum of all values in a collection of numbers divided by the number of numbers in a collection.

Hence, The Poisson distribution with a mean of 6.0 is an appropriate model.

Given: AB || CD

jarptica [38.1K]

First, find slope of point A and B using slope formula:
y2-y1 = 7-0 = -7
x2-x1 3-8 5

Next, use the point-slope formula to find the equation (pick either point A or B to substitute into this equation; the answer will be the same either way):
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-7=-7(x-3) (I used point B here)
5
y=-7x +56 so the y-intercept is 56. Hurray! Part 1 down!
 5 5 5

Now to answer part 2. Since AB ll CD, they have the same slope: -7
5
Therefore, you can use the handy point-slope equation to calculate the equation of line CD. (Remember you only need one of the points to use this equation if you already have the slope.) Since the only point given is D(5,5), we'll use that one:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-5=-7(x-5)
 5
y=-7x + 12 Yay! That's the answer to part 2; the equation of line CD
 5
