<span>We have to calculate the length of the missing side.
Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$a^2+32^2=58^2\\\\a^2+1024=3364\ \ \ |-1024\\\\a^2=2340\to a=\sqrt{2340}\\\\a=\sqrt{36\cdot65}\\\\a=6\sqrt{65}$

$\cos x=\dfrac{6\sqrt{65}}{58}=\dfrac{3\sqrt{65}}{29}$

I think. Your answers to choice are wrong.

The probability of event A is x, and the probability of event B is y. If the two events are independent, which of these conditio

zzz [600]

If two events are independent, then

$Pr(A\cap B)=Pr(A)\cdot Pr(B)$ .

Use formulas for conditional probabilities:

$Pr(A|B)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(B)},\\ \\ Pr(B|A)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(A)}$ .

For independent events these formulas will be:

$Pr(A|B)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(B)}=\dfrac{Pr(A)\cdot Pr(B)}{Pr(B)}=Pr(A),\\ \\ Pr(B|A)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(A)}=\dfrac{Pr(A)\cdot Pr(B)}{Pr(A)}=Pr(B)$ .

Now in your case $Pr(A)=x,\ Pr(B)=y$ and $Pr(A|B)=x,\ Pr(B|A)=y, Pr(A\cap B)=x\cdot y$ .

This shows that the only correct choice is A.

If the perimeter of the triangle is 32 cm what is the length of each two sides? Write and solve equation

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

12 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides which are legs(2 sides having same length )If x is length of each leg, then we ca write the equation like this

equation: x+x+8=32

combine like terms

2x +8 = 32

minus 8 from each side

2x=32-8

2x=24

divide both sides by 2

2x/2 = 24/2

x=12 centimeters

erik [133]

Answer:

5 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

* is multiplication

1 3/4 is 1.75

24/1.75 = 72/×

1.75 * 72 = 24 * x

126 = 24x

24x = 126

x = 5.25 or 5 1/4

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through point (-3, 8) is y = -2/3x + 6. What is the point-

Elena-2011 [213]

$y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{2}{3}}x+6\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so hmmm then we know the slope of that line is -2/3, so we're really looking for the point-slope form of a line with a slope of -2/3 and that passes through (-3 , 8)

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{8})\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m} ~=~ -\cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{8}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{2}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)})\implies y-8=-\cfrac{2}{3}(x+3)$
