Answer:

<h2>This triangle is a right triangle:</h2><h2>36² + 15² = 39².</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If a ≤ b <c is the length of the sides of a right triangle, then:

a^2+b^2=c^2

We have

a=15\ in,\ b=36\ in,\ c=39\ in

Check the equality:

L_s=15^2+36^2=225+1296=1521

R_s=39^2=1521

L_s=R_s

It's a right triangle.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the converse of Pythagoras

If the square of the longest side equals the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides then the triangle is right.

longest side = 39

39² = 1521

36² + 15² = 1296 + 225 = 1521

The triangle is right since 36² + 15² = 39²

A sample with which of these variances has a standard deviation that is greater than the variance?
svetlana [45]
Standard deviation is the square root of the variance. For the square root of a number to be greater than the number, the number must be between 0 and 1.
Hence, for the standard variation to be greater than the variance, the variance must be between 0 and 1.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Because when a decimal is only one number after a zero, it equals ten of whatever number it is. Since 60 is greater than 41 it is -0.6 ( -0.60 ) has more negative value than -0.41.

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

P(X \geq 6) = P(X=6) +P(X=7) +P(X=8) +P(X=9) +P(X=10)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=6)=(10C6)(0.5)^6 (1-0.5)^{10-6}=0.205

P(X=7)=(10C7)(0.5)^7 (1-0.5)^{10-7}=0.117

P(X=8)=(10C8)(0.5)^8 (1-0.5)^{10-8}=0.0439

P(X=9)=(10C9)(0.5)^9 (1-0.5)^{10-9}=0.0098

P(X=10)=(10C10)(0.5)^{10} (1-0.5)^{10-10}=0.000977

And adding the values we got:

P(X\geq 6) = 0.377

The best answer would be:

D. 0.377

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

X \sim Binom(n=10, p=0.5)

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}

For this case in order to pass he needs to answer at leat 6 questions and we can rewrite this:

P(X \geq 6) = P(X=6) +P(X=7) +P(X=8) +P(X=9) +P(X=10)

And using the probability mass function we got:

P(X=6)=(10C6)(0.5)^6 (1-0.5)^{10-6}=0.205

P(X=7)=(10C7)(0.5)^7 (1-0.5)^{10-7}=0.117

P(X=8)=(10C8)(0.5)^8 (1-0.5)^{10-8}=0.0439

P(X=9)=(10C9)(0.5)^9 (1-0.5)^{10-9}=0.0098

P(X=10)=(10C10)(0.5)^{10} (1-0.5)^{10-10}=0.000977

And adding the values we got:

P(X\geq 6) = 0.377

The best answer would be:

D. 0.377
