Suppose the lengths of two sides of a right triangle are represented by 2x and 3 (x + 1), and the longest side is 17 units. Find

densk [106]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>:-

given the lengths of two sides of a right angle are represented by 2x and 3(x+1) and longest side is 17 units.

AB = 2x and BC = 3(x+1) and longest side AC= 17

by using Pythagoras theorem

$AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$

<u>step 2:-</u>

The hypotenuse is longest side is AC = 17 units

(17)^2 = 4x^2 +9(X+1)^2

on simplification, we will use formula

$(a + b)^2 = a^2 +2ab+b^2$

289 = 4x^2 +9(x^2+2x+1)

$13x^2 +18x-280 = 0$

finding factors 70 X 52 = 3640

$13x^2 +70x-52x-280 = 0$

$13x^2 -52x+ 70x-280 = 0$

Taking common , we get

13x(x-4)+70(x-4)=0

x-4=0 and 13x+70=0

x=4 and $13x =-70$

x=4 and $x=\frac{-70}{13}$

we can not choose negative value so x value is 4

Final answer:- x = 4

<u>verification:-</u>

<u></u> $AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$ <u></u>

289 = 4(4)^2+9(4+1)^2

289 = 64 +9(25)

289=289

Of the 9-letter passwords formed by rearranging the letters AAAABBCCC (4 A's, 2 B's, and 3 C's), I select one at random. Determi

Tanya [424]

Answer:

a) 3

b) (8!/9!)-(7!/9!)

c) (1-(8!/9!))*(7!/9!)

Step-by-step explanation:

a)With 4 As ; 2Bs and 3Cs it is possible to get a palindrome if you fixed the letters C according to: (2) in the extremes of the word and the other one at the center therefore you only have palindrome in the following cases

<u>C</u> ( ) <u>C</u> ( ) <u>C</u>

To fill in the gaps we have 4 letters A and 2 letters B, wich we have two divide in two palindrome gaps,

AAB and BAA the palindrome is C AAB C BAA C

BAA and AAB " " is C BAA C AAB C

ABA and ABA " " is C ABA C ABA C

b) 4 A ; 2B ; 3C

We have the total number of elements 9, so the total number of possible outcomes is : 9!

Total events: 9!

if we fixed 3 C we have (the group of 3 Cs becoming one element) so the total amount of events with 3 adjacent Cs is: 7!

Therefore the probability of having 3 adjacent Cs is: 7!/9!

If we fixed only 2 Cs we have:

4 A ; 2 B ; 2C : 1C

Total number of words (events) in this case is 8! (2C becomes 1 element)

so the total numbers of events is 8! the probability in this case is 8!/9!(this value includes cases of adjacent 3 Cs previous calculated ) so this value minus the case of 3 adjacent Cs ) give us 2 adjacent C and the other no next to them

Probability (of words with 2 adjacent Cs and the other no next to them is); 8!/9! - 7!/9!

c) Probability of B apart from each other is the whole set of events minus those where 2 B are adjacent or (become 1 element)

4 A ; 2B ; 3C

Total of events 9! and events with adjacent B is 8!/9!

Therefore the probability of words with 3 adjacent Cs and 2 B separeted is

the probability of 3 adjacent Cs (7!/9!) times probability of words with no adjacent Bs wich is (1-(8!/9!))*(7!/9!)
