The ratio of areas between two similar triangles is 1:4. if one side of the smaller triangle is 2 units, find the measure of the

corresponding side of the other triangle.

1:4
smaller side = 2
bigger side = 8 since 2/8 = 1/4
1/4 = 2/x
x=4*2=8

Suppose that many large samples were taken from population A, which is normally distributed, and population c, which is not norm

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Population A

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about. If population A already known for normally distribution AND you take large samples. The rest would still be distributed, Which keeps population A a Normal Distribution.

but Population C is nor normally distributed, so if you take away large samples. it will deteriorate its distribution so it won't get any better or in this case, normal. so. it is Population A.

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope - Intercept Form : $y = mx+b$

$m$ = slope

$b$ = y - intercept

Slope = $\frac{rise}{run}$

= $\frac3{1}$

= $3$

So far: $y = 3x + b$

Plug in a point from the graph, ex. (3,2)

$2 = 3(3) + b\\\\2 = 9 + b\\\\b = -7$

Equation : $y = 3x - 7$

Find the exact value of cos(a+b) if cos a=-1/3 and cos b=-1/4 if the terminal side if a lies in quadrant 3 and the terminal side

maria [59]

Answer:

cos(a + b) = $\frac{1}{12}(1-2\sqrt{30})$

Step-by-step explanation:

cos(a + b) = cos(a).cos(b) - sin(a).sin(b) [Identity]

cos(a) = $-\frac{1}{3}$

cos(b) = $-\frac{1}{4}$

Since, terminal side of angle 'a' lies in quadrant 3, sine of angle 'a' will be negative.

sin(a) = $-\sqrt{1-(-\frac{1}{3})^2}$ [Since, sin(a) = $\sqrt{(1-\text{cos}^2a)}$ ]

= $-\sqrt{\frac{8}{9}}$

= $-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}$

Similarly, terminal side of angle 'b' lies in quadrant 2, sine of angle 'b' will be negative.

sin(b) = $-\sqrt{1-(-\frac{1}{4})^2}$

= $-\sqrt{\frac{15}{16}}$

= $-\frac{\sqrt{15}}{4}$

By substituting these values in the identity,

cos(a + b) = $(-\frac{1}{3})(-\frac{1}{4})-(-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3})(-\frac{\sqrt{15}}{4})$

= $\frac{1}{12}-\frac{\sqrt{120}}{12}$

= $\frac{1}{12}(1-\sqrt{120})$

= $\frac{1}{12}(1-2\sqrt{30})$

Therefore, cos(a + b) = $\frac{1}{12}(1-2\sqrt{30})$
