Answer:
its b
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing side. The Pythagorean Theorem is:
c2=a2+b2
where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the sides.
√(26^2- 24^2) = 10
Answer:
Velocity of jet in still air is 970 miles per hour and velocity of wind is 210 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jet's velocity against wind is
3040/4 = 760 miles per hour and flying with wind it is
8260/7 = 1180 miles per hour.
Let the velocity of jet in still air be x miles per hour and velocity of wind be y miles per hour.
As such its velocity against wind is x − y and with wind is x + y and therefore
x − y = 760 and x + y = 1180
Adding the two 2 x = 1940 and x = 970 and y = 1180 − 970 = 210
Hence velocity of jet in still air is 970 miles per hour and velocity of wind is
210 miles per hour.

Answer: P(odd) = 0.499
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total number of people = 20
Number of men = 12
Number of women = 8
Number of jury to be selected = 6
For the jury to have an odd number of women. it must have either of the three.
1. 1 woman , 5 men
2. 3 women, 3 men
3. 5 women, 1 man
The total possible ways of selecting the 6 people jury is;
N = 20C6 = 20!/6!(20-6)!
N = 38760
The possible ways of selecting;
Case 1 : 1 woman, 5 men
N1 = 8C1 × 12C5
N1 = 8 × 792 = 6336
Case 2 : 3 women , 3 men
N2 = 8C3 × 12C3
N2 = 12320
Case 3 : 5 women, 1 man
N3 = 8C5 × 12C1
N3 = 672
P(Odd) = (N1+N2+N3)/N
P(odd) = (6336+12320+672)/38760
P(odd) = 19328/38760
P(odd) = 0.499
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope 1 = (-1+7)/(-5-4) = 6/(-9) = -2/3
Slope 2 perpendicular to Slope 1 :
-1 ÷ -⅔ = 3/2
Considering there is a function (relationship) and that it is linear, the distance will change proportionally to time constantly. In other words, we are taking the speed to be constant throughout the journey.
If we let:
t = time (min's) driving
d = distance (miles) from destination
Then we can represent the above information as:
t = 40: d = 59
t = 52: d = 50
If we think of this as a graph, we can think of the x-axis representing time and the y-axis representing the distance to the destination. Being linear, the function will be a line, i.e. it will have a constant gradient. If you were plot the two points inferred from the information and connect the two dots, you will get a declining line (one with a negative gradient) representing the inversely proportional relationship or equally, the negative correlation between the time driving and the distance to the destination. The equation of this line will be the linear function that relates time and the distance to the destination. To find this linear function, we do as follows:
Find the gradient (m) of the line:
m = Δy/Δx
In this case, the x-values are t-values and our y-values are d-values, so:
Δy = Δd
= 50 - 59
= -9
Δx = Δt
= 52 - 40
= 12
m = -9/12 = -3/4
Note: m is equivalent to speed with units: d/t
Use formula to find function and rearrange to give it in the desired format:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
d - 50 = -3/4(t - 52)
4d - 200 = -3t + 156
4d + 3t - 356 = 0
Let t = 70 to find d at the time:
4d + 3(70) - 356 = 0
4d + 210 - 356 = 0
4d - 146 = 0
4d = 146
d = 73/2 = 36.5 miles
So after 70 min's of driving, Dale will be 36.5 miles from his destination.
