A triangular section of land is fenced off due to contamination. Two sides of the triangle are each 16 meters ( 16m) longer than
Sphinxa [80]

Answer: the shortest side is 30m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the shortest side be a meters

If side 2 is 16m longer than the shortest side, then it is (16+a)meters.

The same goes with side 3.

Then,

a + (16+a) + (16+a) = 122m

32 + 3a = 122m

Collecting like terms together,

3a = 122 - 32

3a = 90

Divide by coefficient of a

3a/3 = 90/3

a = 30 meters

Check:

30 + (16+30) + (16+30)

30 + 46 + 46 = 112

Life tests on a helicopter rotor bearing give a population mean value of 2500 hours and a population standard deviation of 135 h
stira [4]

Answer:

The percent of the parts are expected to fail before the 2100 hours is 0.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :Life tests on a helicopter rotor bearing give a population mean value of 2500 hours and a population standard deviation of 135 hours.

To Find : If the specification requires that the bearing lasts at least 2100 hours, what percent of the parts are expected to fail before the 2100 hours?.

Solution:

We will use z score formula

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Mean value = \mu = 2500

Standard deviation = \sigma = 135

We are supposed to find  If the specification requires that the bearing lasts at least 2100 hours, what percent of the parts are expected to fail before the 2100 hours?

So we are supposed to find P(z<2100)

so, x = 2100

Substitute the values in the formula

z=\frac{2100-2500}{135}

z=−2.96

Now to find P(z<2100) we will use z table

At z = −2.96 the value is 0.0015

So, In percent = .0015 \times 100=0.15\%

Hence The percent of the parts are expected to fail before the 2100 hours is 0.15.

What is the area of the triangle shown below?
elena-s [515]

Answer:

5 un^2

Step-by-step explanation:

the liens from (0, 0) to (1, 3) and (1, 3) to (4, 2) are perpendicular meaning that the angle at (1, 3) is a right angle

to find the lengths of the sides we must use the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

for the leftmost side

we have 1^2 + 3^2 = c^2

1 + 9 = 10

c^2 = 10

c = sqrt(10)

for the top side

we have

the same thing

1^2 + 3^2 = c^2

1 + 9 = 10

c^2 = 10

c = sqrt(10)

you must multiple sqrt(10) by sqrt(10) and then by 1/2

sqrt(10) * sqrt(10) is 10

10 * 1/2 is 5

the area is 5 un^2
