Answer:

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the length of the missing side is 5.4 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Pythagorean theorem, $a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$ , where c is the length of the hypotenuse (the longest side), a and b are the lengths of the other two sides. We can use this to solve for the length of the hypotenuse of the right triangle shown in your question (the missing side):

$2^{2}+5^{2}=c^{2}$

This simplifies to $29=c^{2}$ . Now to solve for c (the length of the hypotenuse), we just take the square root of both sides of the equation and solve like so:

$\sqrt{29} =\sqrt{c^{2}}$

This simplifies to c≈5.4 in.

HELP ASAP ROCKY!!!!!!

Answer:

32.5

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 4 rows

1 = 3

2 = 5

3 = 2

so there is 10 numbers

We go for the middle number which is 2-3 so the answer must be 32.5.

We know it is between 2-3 as the same as 1-10

1,2,3,4,5, ------ 6,7,8,9,10

So the imput numbers are listed 2 + 3 in your stem diagram where so 5 + 6 would be in the explanation. As 10 +1 = 11 then 11/2 = 5.5 - this means 5.5 = 32.5 as 33 would be the 6.

Write a compound inequality that each graph could represent for the following questions.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Part 67) $x > -2$ and $x < 3$

Part 68) $x\leq -1$ or $x\geq 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 67) we know that

The solution of the number line is the interval -------> (-2,3)

All real numbers greater than -2 and less than 3

The compound inequality could be

$x > -2$ and $x < 3$

"And” indicates that, both statements must be true at the same time

Part 68) we know that

The solution of the number line is the interval (-∞,-1] ∪ [1,∞)

All real numbers less than or equal to -1 or all real numbers greater than or equal to 1

The compound inequality could be

$x\leq -1$ or $x\geq 1$

"Or” indicates that, as long as either statement is true, the entire compound sentence is true

A factory dumps an average of 2.43 tons of pollutants into a river every week. if the standard deviation is 0.88 tons, what is t

vovikov84 [41]

25.8%
First, determine how many standard deviations from the norm that 3 tons are. So:
(3 - 2.43) / 0.88 = 0.57/0.88 = 0.647727273
So 3 tons would be 0.647727273 deviations from the norm. Now using a standard normal table, lookup the value 0.65 (the table I'm using has z-values to only 2 decimal places, so I rounded the z-value I got from 0.647727273 to 0.65). The value I got is 0.24215. Now this value is the probability of getting a value between the mean and the z-score. What I want is the probability of getting that z-score and anything higher. So subtract the value from 0.5, so 0.5 - 0.24215 = 0.25785 = 25.785%
So the probability that more than 3 tons will be dumped in a week is 25.8%
