As, 5, 12 and 13 form a pythagorean triplet.
Which means OTX is a right angles trangle right angles at T.

Which means angle OTX = 90° .

Which means

Yes XY is a tangent.

Because A tangent makes 90° angle with the radius at that point of contact.

According to a survey, high school girls average 100 text messages daily (The Boston Globe, April 21, 2010). Assume the populati
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is:

X: number of daily text messages a high school girl sends.

This variable has a population standard deviation of 20 text messages.

A sample of 50 high school girls is taken.

The is no information about the variable distribution, but since the sample is large enough, n ≥ 30, you can apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample mean to normal:

X[bar]≈N(μ;δ²/n)

This way you can use an approximation of the standard normal to calculate the asked probabilities of the sample mean of daily text messages of high school girls:

Z=(X[bar]-μ)/(δ/√n)≈ N(0;1)

a.

P(X[bar]<95) = P(Z<(95-100)/(20/√50))= P(Z<-1.77)= 0.03836

b.

P(95≤X[bar]≤105)= P(X[bar]≤105)-P(X[bar]≤95)

P(Z≤(105-100)/(20/√50))-P(Z≤(95-100)/(20/√50))= P(Z≤1.77)-P(Z≤-1.77)= 0.96164-0.03836= 0.92328

I hope you have a SUPER day!

Find the number of roots for each equation.<br> 5. 5x4 + 12x3 – x2 + 3x + 5 = 0
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The number of roots for  equation 5x^4 + 12x^3 – x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0 is 4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given function polynomial is :

P(x) : 5x^4 + 12x^3 – x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra says that a polynomial of degree n will have exactly n roots (counting multiplicity).

Now here, the degree if the polynomial is 4 (highest power of variable x).

So, according to the Fundamental Theorem, the given polynomial can have AT MOST 4 roots, counting Multiplicity.

Hence,  the number of roots for  equation 5x^4 + 12x^3 – x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0 is 4 .

Solve the equation for y. 4.2x-1.4y=2.1
mr Goodwill [35]

Subtract 2.1 from both sides:

4.2x-1.4y-2.1=0

Add 1.4y to both sides:

4.2x-2.1=1.4y

Of course, we can rewrite this as

1.4y=4.2x-2.1

Divide both sides by 1.4

y = \dfrac{4.2}{1.4}x - \dfrac{2.1}{1.4} = 3x - 1.5
