Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use  the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

x^2 + (x+2)^2 = (2x-2)^2

FOIL (x+2)^2 = x^2 +2x+2x+4 = x^2 +4x+4

FOIL (2x-2)^2 = 4x^2 -4x -4x+4 = 4x^2 -8x+4

Replacing these in to the equation

x^2 +x^2 +4x+4 = 4x^2 -8x+4

Combine like terms

2x^2 +4x +4 = 4x^2 -8x +4

Subtract 4 from each side

2x^2 +4x +4-4 = 4x^2 -8x +4-4

2x^2 +4x = 4x^2 -8x

Subtract 2x^2 from each side

2x^2 -2x^2+4x = 4x^2-2x^2 -8x

4x = 2x^2 -8x

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-4x = 2x^2 -8x-4x

0 = 2x^2 -12x

Factor out a 2x

0 = 2x(x-6)

Using the zero product property

2x =0  x-6 =0

x =0  x-6+6 = 0+6

x = 0  c=6

Answer:

Therefore,  the probability that at least half of them need to wait more than 10 minutes is <em>0.0031</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the probability of an exponential distribution is:

P(x < b) = 1 - e^(b/3)

Using the complement rule, we can determine the probability of a customer having to wait more than 10 minutes, by:

p = P(x > 10)

  = 1 - P(x < 10)

  = 1 - (1 - e^(-10/10) )

  = e⁻¹

  = 0.3679

The z-score is the difference in sample size and the population mean, divided by the standard deviation:

z = (p' - p) / √[p(1 - p) / n]

  = (0.5 - 0.3679) / √[0.3679(1 - 0.3679) / 100)]

  = 2.7393

Therefore, using the probability table, you find that the corresponding probability is:

P(p' ≥ 0.5) = P(z > 2.7393)

<em>P(p' ≥ 0.5) = 0.0031</em>

<em></em>

Therefore,  the probability that at least half of them need to wait more than 10 minutes is <em>0.0031</em>.

Please help me with the question ​
Damm [24]

Answer:

The right answer is Option 2:

y+6 = -\frac{3}{4}(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form of equation of a line is given by:

y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)

Here m is slope of the line and (x1,y1) is the point from which the line passes.

Given

Slope = m = -3/4

Point = (x1,y1) = (2,-6)

We simply have to put these value into the general form of equation of line in point-slope form

y-(-6) = -\frac{3}{4}(x-2)\\y+6 = -\frac{3}{4}(x-2)

Hence,

The right answer is Option 2:

y+6 = -\frac{3}{4}(x-2)

SO CONFUSED PLEASE SOMEONE EXPLAIN! DUE SOON AND NEED HELP!!!!!!!! QUESTION IN PICTURE BELOW
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

=> Apply law of cosine

c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcos\left(C\right)

=> input value

z^2=6.5^2 + 9.4^2-\left(6.5\right)\left(9.4\right)\left(cos\left(131\right)\right)

=> simplify

z=\sqrt{\left(6.5^2+\:9.4^2\right)-\left(6.5\right)\left(9.4\right)\left(-0.65605902899\right)}

=> calulcation

z=\sqrt{-61.1\cos \left(131^{\circ \:}\right)+130.61},\:z=-\sqrt{-61.1\cos \left(131^{\circ \:}\right)+130.61}

=> apply rule: Distance must be greater than 0

which is about 14.51828
