If you set it up in cross multiplication then you would have (x/100 = 45/54) then cross multiply so then i would look like this (54x/4,500) so from there you would divide 54 from 4,500 i hope this helps in any way  oh and it should come up to be 83.3333333 which would be 83% lol

using the pythagorean theorem, find the length of a leg of a right triangle if the other leg is 8 feet long and the hypotenuse i
8_murik_8 [283]
Phthagorean theorme is
a^2+b^2=c^2
where you have a right triangle and c =hypotonuse( normally the longest side, and opposite of right angle)
a and b are the legs

so we are given
one leg=8
hypotonues=10
subsitute
leg=a or b so just subsitute for one
subsitutt  for b
a^2+8^2=10^2
expand
8^2=64
10^2=100
a^2+64=100
subtract 64 from both sides
a^2=36
square root both sides
a=6
answe ris 6 feet

Can someone explain to me why this is right?
Flauer [41]
Hello!

This is right because the goal of solving a quadratic equation is to isolate the variable and then solve it. First you multiply - 8/3 to both sides to isolate s and the you solve the equation by multiplying - 8/3 to - 6

Given square NOWR, what is the value of x and y?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

x = 4, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles in a square are right, that is 90°

The diagonals bisect the angles , then

6x + 21 = 45 ( subtract 21 from both sides )

6x = 24 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 4

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

The sides of a square are congruent , then

10y - 29 = 5y + 16 ( subtract 5y from both sides )

5y - 29 = 16 ( add 29 to both sides )

5y = 45 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 9

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

0.242

Step-by-step explanation:

p = 0.08, q = 1 − p = 0.92, and n = 1000.

The mean and standard deviation are:

μ = p = 0.08

σ = √(pq/n) = 0.00858

The z score is:

z = (x − μ) / σ = -0.70

Using a calculator or z score table, the probability is:

P(Z < -0.70) = 0.242
