Use Pythagorean's Theorem to solve for the missing leg length.

32^2-18^2=a^2

with a being the length of the missing leg. Simplifying we have

1024-324=a^2

and

a^2=700. If we are told to express our answer to the nearest tenth of an inch, then we are simply plugging that into our calculator to get 26.45 or, rounded correctly, 26.5

Natalka [10]
It would be 7 hours because 35 x 3 is 105, if she is already 105 miles from home then 35 x 7 is 245. 245 + 105 = 350. Candice would be at 350 and Liz would be at 350, so in conclusion the answer is 7 hours. :)

Suppose that a recent poll of American households about car ownership found that for households with a car, 39% owned a sedan, 3
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The probability that of the 3 households randomly selected at least 1 owns a sports car is 0.1956.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of household owns a sports car.

The probability of <em>X</em> is, P (X) = p = 0.07.

Then the random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with <em>n</em> = 3 and <em>p</em> = 0.07.

The probability function of a binomial distribution is:

P(X=x) = {n\choose x}p^{x}[1-p]^{n-x}\\

Compute the probability that of the 3 households randomly selected at least 1 owns a sports car:

P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X

Thus, the probability that of the 3 households randomly selected at least 1 owns a sports car is 0.1956.
