Which set of side lengths defines a right triangle?

1 answer:

3 0

If you have a lot of Pythagorean triples memorized, then you'd probably know immediately, but if not, then you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate each one:

A.: 7^2+9^2=49+81 which is not equal to 13^2, or 169

B.: 5^2+12^2=25+144 which is not equal to 14^2, or 196

C.: 8^2+15^2=64+225=17^2=289

D.: 9^2+12^2=81+144 which isn't equal to 14^2, or 196

Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Which graph represents an odd function?

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

<h2>The first graph in the second image is an odd function.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

An odd function has a graph that it's symmetric about the origin, that is, the origin is like a mirror. In other words, the graph of an odd function has a specific symmetry about the origin.

So, we have to look for those graph that has symmetrical points in opposite quadrants, I and III or II and IV.

You can observe that the first graph of the second image has this behaviour. You can see that the points are symmetrical across the origin. If you graph a line defined as y=-x, you will observe that such line acts like a mirror.

Therefore, the odd function is the first graph in the second image.

A sequence of Bernoulli trials consists of choosing components at random from a batch of components. A selected component is eit

Drupady [299]

Answer:

a) 0.0287 = 2.87% probability that three non-defective components in a batch of seven components.

b) 0.0336 = 3.36% probability that 8 non-defective components are drawn before the first defective component is chosen.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence of Bernoulli trials composes the binomial distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

The probability that a selected component is non-defective is 0.8

This means that $p = 0.8$

a) Three non-defective components in a batch of seven components.

This is P(X = 3) when n = 7. So

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 3) = C_{7,3}.(0.8)^{3}.(0.2)^{4} = 0.0287$

0.0287 = 2.87% probability that three non-defective components in a batch of seven components.

b) 8 non-defective components are drawn before the first defective component is chosen.

Now the order is important, so the we just multiply the probabilities.

8 non-defective, each with probability 0.8, and then a defective, with probability 0.2. So

$p = (0.8)^8*0.2 = 0.0336$

0.0336 = 3.36% probability that 8 non-defective components are drawn before the first defective component is chosen.
