Let l and l-6 be the length and width, respectively, of the rectangle. Then:
l(l-6)=40
l²-6l-40=0
(l-10)(l+4)=0
l=10,-4
The rectangle is 10" by 4". ☺☺☺☺

To estimate μ, the mean salary of full professors at American colleges and universities, you obtain the salaries of a random sam
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

<h3>73220±566.72</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the confidence interval is expressed as;

CI = xbar ± z*s/√n

xbar is the sample mean =  $73,220

z is the z score at 99% CI = 2.576

s is the standard deviation = $4400

n is the sample size = 400

Substitute the given values into the formula;

CI = 73,220 ± 2.576*4400/√400

CI = 73,220 ± 2.576*4400/20

CI = 73,220± (2.576*220)

CI = 73220±566.72

Hence a 99% confidence interval for μ is 73220±566.72

What is the area of a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 12 and 1 leg is 10??
Agata [3.3K]
Hey there! :)

Area of triangles → (base × height) ÷ 2

The base and height are the 2 legs. You have to find the length of the other leg to find the area, using the Pythagorean Theorem.

a² + b² = c² → c² - a² = b²

c = 12
12² = 12 × 12 = 144

a = 10
10² = 10 × 10 = 100

144 - 100 = 44

√44 = 6.6
_____________________________________________________________

Area of triangles → (base × height) ÷ 2

Base: 10
Height: 6.6

6.6 × 10 = 66

66 ÷ 2 = 33

The area is 33 

Hope this helps :)
