1 answer:
Debora [2.8K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = c = 17 feet

Height = a = 9 feet + 6 feet = 15 feet

Children's space = b

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

15^2 + b^2 = 17^2

225 + b^2 = 289                   Subtract 225 from both sides

225-225+b^2=289-225

b^2 = 64                                 Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(64)

b = 8

Since each child takes up 1 foot, 8 children can sit on side b.

The probability for a football player to suffer more than three roken bones will be the the sum of probabilities for 4 broken bones and five broken bones. Looking at the chart provided we can see that the probablity for 4 four broken bones is P(4)=0.10, and for 5 broken bones is P(5)=0.15. Thus the probaility,
P(x>3)=0.10+0.15=0.25.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

B. (3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution of the system of the equations given, can be determined using the graph. The coordinate of the point where the two lines of both equations intersect is the solution.

Both lines intersect at x = 3, when y = -2.

Therefore, the solution would be (3, -2).
