Option I
(3x+4)cm =(2x+10)cm
3x-2x=6
x=6
Option II
(3x+4)= (x+12)
3x-x=12-4
2x=8
x=4
Option III
(2x+10)= (x+12)
2x-x=12-10
x=2

Isosceles triangles, are triangles where two of the lengths are the same so we can say that:
1. (3x+4)=(2x+10)
2. (3x+4)=(x+12)
3. (2x+10)=(x+12)
One of these must be true. Solve as simultaneous equations.
1. x=6
2. x=4
3. x=2

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

Andrews [41]

Answer:

17.2°

Explanations

To find angle A, use the cosine rule.

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2 × a × c cos A

4^2 = 7^2 + 10^2 - 2 × 7 × 10 cos A

16 = 49+ 100 - 140 × cosA

16 = 149 - 140cosA

16- 149 = - 140cosA

-133 = - 140cosA

cosA = 133/140

cosA = 0.95

A = 17.2°

The letters of the word COMBINE are placed at random in a row. In how many ways can an arrangement occur such that all vowels ar

Oksana_A [137]

I think its 210 because there are 7 letters and 3 vowels so the permutation would be 7 P 3.

According to the empirical (69-95-99.7) rule, if a random variable z has a standard normal distribution, then approximately 95%

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Using z-scores, it is found that the value of z is z = 1.96.

-----------------------------

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula, which for a measure X, in a distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.
Each z-score has an associated p-value, which is the percentile.

The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that the middle 95% is between the 2.5th percentile and the 97.5th percentile.
The 2.5th percentile is Z with a p-value of 0.025, thus Z = -1.96.
The 97.5th percentile is Z with a p-value of 0.975, thus Z = 1.96.
Thus, the value of Z is 1.96.

Shanice's car is traveling 10 miles per hour slower than twice the speed of Brandon's car. She covers 93 miles in 1 hour 30 minu

joja [24]

Shanice's rate: 93 / 1.5 = 62 miles per hour

she is 10 miles slower than twice the speed of Brandon

62 +10 = 72

72/2 = 36

Brandon is driving 36 miles per hour
