Elena L [17]3 years ago

Did you notice the little box with corners marked in the angle down at the bottom ?
That angle is a right angle, and <em>this triangle is a right triangle</em> !

This piece of information is a big help.  It breaks the problem wide open.
You know that in order to find the longest side of a right triangle . . .

-- Square the length of one short side.
-- Square the length of the other short side.
-- Add the two squares together.
-- Take the square root of the sum.

One short side=48.           Its square = 2,304.
The other short side=48.  Its square = 2,304.
Add the two squares:        2,304 + 2,304 = 4,608

The square root of the sum = √4,608 = <em><u>67.88</u></em> (rounded)

Please solve this problem.
just olya [345]

x=number of oranges.

y=number of bananas.

$5

we can suggest this system of equations:

x+y=12

0.5x+0.25y=5

We can solve this system of equations by substitution method.

x=12-y

0.5(12-y)+0.25y=5

6-0.5y+0.25y=5

-0.25y=5-6

-0.25y=-1

y=-1 /- 0.25=4

x=12-y

x=12-4=8

Answer:

<em>Tanya bought 8 oranges and 4 bananas.</em>

Answer:

The t-distribution is used.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we dont know the standard deviation of the population, we use the t-distribution(t-table).

Otherwise, the z-distribution(z-table) is used.

So the answer to this question is the t-distribution.
