1 gallon = 10 miles = 16 km

Find the value of X. Write your answer in simplest form.<br>What does X equal? ​
drek231 [11]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the figure of similar triangles.

The altitude of the triangle is x.

The length of the left part is 30.

The length of the right part is 15.

We need to determine the value of x.

<u>Value of x:</u>

The value of x can be determined using the geometric mean theorem.

Thus, we have;

\frac{\text { left }}{\text { altitude }}=\frac{\text { altitude }}{\text { right }}

Substituting the values, we have;

\frac{30}{x}=\frac{x}{15}

Cross multiplying, we get;

30 \times 15= x^2

     450=x^2

Taking square root on both sides, we have;

15 \sqrt{2}=x

Thus, the value of x is 15√2

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: 0.9726

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable that represents the distance the tires can run until they wear out.

Given : The top-selling Red and Voss tire is rated 50,000 miles, which means nothing. In fact, the distance the tires can run until they wear out is a normally distributed random variable with a \mu=67,000 miles and a \sigma= 5,200 miles.

Then , the probability that a tire wears out before 60,000 miles :

P(x  [using p-value table for z]

Hence, the probability that a tire wears out before 60,000 miles= 0.9726
