Answer:

\sqrt{8^{2} + 3^{2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that this is a rectangle triangle, and that the ZY side is the hypotenuse.

It's length is then square root of the sum of the squares of the other sides:

hyp = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2} }

So, in this case:

ZY = \sqrt{8^{2} + 3^{2} }

The 8 and 3 numbers are easy to get from the graphic... and the order doesn't matter (8² + 3² = 3² + 8²).

That's an easy rule to remember.

I hope it helps.

Answer:

|ZY|=\sqrt{8^2+3^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

ZY is the hypotenuse of triangle XZY.

The two shorter legs are;

YX=3 units

and

XZ=8 units.

According to the Pythagoras Theorem;

|ZY|^2=|XZ|^2+|YX|^2

This implies that;

|ZY|^2=8^2+3^2

We take the positive square root to obtain;

|ZY|=\sqrt{8^2+3^2}

The second choice is correct

A new car battery is sold with a two-year warranty whereby the owner gets the battery replaced free of cost if it breaks down du
Mariana [72]

Answer:

4.01% probability that the battery will break down during the warranty period

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 45, \sigma = 12

a. What is the probability that the battery will break down during the warranty period

Warranty of 2 years = 24 months. So this is the pvalue of Z when X = 24.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{24 - 45}{12}

Z = -1.75

Z = -1.75 has a pvalue of 0.0401

4.01% probability that the battery will break down during the warranty period

What is the gcf of 27 and 72
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The GCF of 27 and 72 is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

prime factorization of 27 is 3*3*3

prime factorization of 72 is 2*2*2 by 3*3

3*3 is in both, and so we need to multiply that to get our GCF. 3*# is 9, so the GCF of 27 and 72 is 9

Artemon [7]

While setting up a fireworks display, you have a tool at the top of the

building and need to drop it to a coworker below. Given the equation:

h(t) = -16t^2 + h0

h = 84 feet

it will take the tool to fall to the ground 2.29 time unit

-84 = -16t^2 – 0

<span>t = 2.29 time unit</span>
