diagonal = sqrt(l^ + w^2)

17 = sqrt(10^2 + x^2)

17^2 = 10^2 + x^2

289 = 100 + x^2

189 = x^2

x = sqrt(189) = 13.747

X = 13.75

 width is 13.75 inches

I am thinking of six different odd numbers, the mean of the numbers is 16, the median is 15, the range is 26, the greatest numbe
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

information from the range

If the range is 26 and the largest number is 31 then the smallest number is 31 - 26  = 5

Information from the median

The median must consist of 2 numbers because we have 6 integers for the data and median must consist of the middle 2. Since we are told that the median is 15 and we need 2 integers the other integer must  be 15 as well..

So what do we know so far.

5      15 15         31

Information from the mean

There are six integers making up the series of numbers. The mean is 16. Therefore all 6 integers added together must be 6 * 16 = 96

What do we have so for?

5 + 15 + 15 + 31 = 66

What do the other two numbers sum to?

96 -66 = 30

Getting the answer.

The first number to try must be 13. It has to be below 15 (the median and odd. That's 13).

So now we have

5 13 15 15 ___ 31

But from the mean we need 30

30 - 13 = 17

And we have a winner because 17 is above 15.

Answer

5 13 15 15 17 31

Complete the square to the problem X^2+6x-16=0
marishachu [46]

Answer:

<h2>x = -8 or x = 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\qquad(*)\\\\-------------------------------\\\\x^2+6x-16=0\qquad\text{add 16 to both sides}\\\\x^2+6x=16\\\\x^2+2(x)(3)=16\qquad\text{add}\ 3^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\\underbrace{x^2+2(x)(3)+3^2}_{(*)}=16+3^2\\\\(x+3)^2=16+9\\\\(x+3)^2=25\Rightarrow x+3=\pm\sqrt{25}\\\\x+3=-5\ \vee\ x+3=5\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\\boxed{x=-8\ \vee\ x=2}
