Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
First would need to convert the radical into a number.
And since if you have a perfect square of a radical it goes outside the square root sign, you would take the 3 and square it to make 9 and then take the 2 inside the square root sign and multiply so you have the square root of 18|
Since we have
as the Leg c we would need to square it, squaring a square root sign would just cause them to be cancelled out and you being left with 18, afterwards find the square of 3, which is 9
18-9=9
square root of 9 = 3
Since we have two possible pieces of information and 2 items to solve for, we know this is a system of equations.
Our first piece of information is that our shorter leg (s) is 2 feet shorter than our longer leg (l). This can be written as s=l-2.
Our second piece of information is that using the Pythagorean theorem that our shorter leg squared plus our longer leg squared is equal to our hypotenuse squared. This can be represented by s^2+l^2=10^2. Now we can solve.
We have already isolated for s in our first equation, so we can substitute l-2 in.
(l-2)^2+l^2=10^2
l-2+l=10
2l-2=10
2l=12
l=6
Now we can substitute in for s in our simpler equation
s=6-2
s=4
We now know that using our knowledge of systems of equations, the side lengths of this right angle triangle are 6 and 4.
<span>If you were asked to express the weight in ounces of a
ladybug in scientific notation, would the exponent of 10 be positive or
negative? Justify your response.</span>
<span>The exponent of 10 would be positive because the weight is
measured and is attributed to a living organism hence, there’s no living
organism measured in a negative value. Unless it was used otherwise. </span>

*edited* I believe this is correct
Answer:
0.037
Step-by-step explanation:
If the hitter makes an out 72% of the time, then the probabilty that he makes hit in 1 at-bat is
and the probabilty that he doesn't make hit in 1 at-bat is 
The probability that the hitter makes 10 outs in 10 consecutive at-bats, assuming at-bats are independent events is
