By the Pythagorean Theorem:

h^2=x^2+y^2

Which just means that the hypotenuse (longest side) squared is equal to the sum of the side lengths squared...in this case:

h^2=5^2+13^2

h^2=25+169

h^2=194

h=√194

h≈13.93 in (to nearest hundredth of an inch)

Mckensey is correct as shown above.

Cara's mistake was in letting c be a side length instead of the length of the hypotenuse...

Chapter 6, Section 1-D, Exercise 009 Is a Normal Distribution Appropriate? In each case below, is the sample size large enough s
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question:

Chapter 6, Section 1-D, Exercise 009 Is a Normal Distribution Appropriate? In each case below, is the sample size large enough so that the sample proportions follow a normal distribution?

a) n=600 p=0.2

b) n=20, p=0.4

if np=10 and npq=10 then  the data follows normal distribution

a) np= 120,

q= 1-0.2= 0.8

npq= 600 ×0.2×0.4 = 48

Normal distribution is appropriate and sample size is large enough

b) np= 8

q= 1-0.4= 0.6

npq= 20 × 0.4×0.6= 4.8

sample size is not large enough so normal distribution is not appropriate.

Hello there >3 i would like explanation for this :)
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

  75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t and u represent the tens and units digits, respectively.

  t = u + 2 . . . . the tens digit exceeds the units digit by 2

  t + 2u = 17 . . . . the sum of the tens digit and twice the units digit is 17

Substituting for t in the second equation, we get ...

  (u +2) +2u = 17

  3u = 15 . . . . . . . . subtract 2

  u = 5 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  t = u+2 = 7

The number is 75.

_____

<em>Check</em>

7 exceeds 5 by 2. 7 + twice 5 = 7 + 10 = 17.

|x-5|=3 <br> Whats x? please help?
finlep [7]

Answer:

x = 8 or x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know x - 5 = 3 or x - 5 = -3.

<u>Possibility 1:</u>

Step 1: Add 5 to both sides.

  • x-5+5=3+5
  • x=8

<u>Possibility 2:</u>

Step 1: Add 5 to both sides.

  • x-5+5=-3+5
  • x=2

Step 2: Check if both solutions apply to original equation.

  • |8-5|=3
  • |3|=3
  • 3=3
  • |2-5|=3
  • |-3|=3
  • 3=3
