Answer:

<h2>8.54 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Perpendicular ( p ) = 8 units

Base ( b ) = 3 units

Hypotenuse ( h ) = ?

Using Pythagoras theorem:

{h}^{2}  =  {p}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}

plug the values

{h}^{2}  =  {8}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}

Evaluate the power

{h}^{2}  = 64 + 9

Calculate the sum

{h}^{2}  = 73

Squaring on both sides

h =  \sqrt{73}

Calculate

h = 8.54 units

Hope this helps..

Best regards!

Alekssandra [29.7K]

It would be 37’000 because 20% of 185000 is 37’000 which you get by 20 x 185000 and dividing the answer to 100.

A group of statistics students decided to conduct a survey at their university to find the average (mean) amount of time student
Butoxors [25]

Answer: (21.541,\ 23.059)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size : n=240 , which is a large sample , so we apply z-test .

Sample mean : \overline{x}=22.3

Standard deviation : \sigma= 6

Significance level : \alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=1.960

Now, a confidence interval at the 95% level of confidence will be :-

22.3\pm(1.960)\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{240}}\\\\\approx22.3\pm0.759\\\\=(22.3-0.759,\ 22.3+0.759)\\\\=(21.541,\ 23.059)

The height 'h' (in feet) of a ball in a baseball game can be modeled by h = -16t² + 28t + 8 , where 't' is the time (in seconds)
lidiya [134]

Answer:

  a)  No. t < 0 is not part of the useful domain of the function

  b) 2.0 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A graph of the function is shown below. It shows t-intercepts at t=-0.25 and t=2.0. We presume that t is measured forward from some event such as the ball being thrown or hit. The model's predicted ball location has no meaning prior to that event, when values of t are negative.

__

b) It is convenient to use a graphing calculator to find the t-intercepts. Or, the equation can be solved for h=0 any of several ways algebraically. One is by factoring.

  h = 0 = -16t² +28t +8 . . . . . . . . . . . . the ball hits the ground when h = 0

  0 = -4(4t² -7t -2) = -4(4t +1)(t -2)

This has t-intercepts where the factors are zero, at t=-1/4 and t=2.

The ball will hit the ground after 2 seconds.
