Answer:

40cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the missing leg, use the Pythagorean theorem a²+ b² = c² and substitute the numbers a² + 8² = 17².

2. So a = 15 since 17²-8² = 289 - 64 =225 and the square root of 225 is 15

3. Now that all the lengths have been found. So the perimeter of the right triangle is 40cm.

An education budget went from $800,000 to $900,000. What is the approximate percent increase?
just olya [345]
The increase would be possibly about by 100,000 dollars, but if you were to take it as a decimal as a millionth, it would go up by 10 percent.

The sum of two numbers is 0. Twice the smaller number subtracted from 3 times the larger number is 10. Let x represent the large
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

x+y=0 and 3x-2y=10

Step-by-step explanation

Let the numbers be x and y.

The sum of the two numbers is 0

\implies \: x + y =0

Letting the smaller number be y and the

larger number be x:

twice the smaller number

\implies \: 2y

Also, 3 times the larger number

\implies \: 3x

Now ,twice the smaller number subtracted from 3 times the larger number is 10.

\implies \: 3x - 2y = 10

Therefore the equations are

x + y =0

and

3x  - 2y =10

A study indicates that 37% of students have laptops. You randomly sample 30 students. Find the mean and the standard deviation o
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The mean and the standard deviation of the number of students with laptops are 1.11 and 0.836 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of students who have laptops.

The probability of a student having a laptop is, P (X) = <em>p</em> = 0.37.

A random sample of <em>n</em> = 30 students is selected.

The event of a student having a laptop is independent of the other students.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> and <em>p</em>.

The mean and standard deviation of a binomial random variable <em>X</em> are:

\mu=np\\\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}

Compute the mean of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

\mu=np=30\times0.37=1.11

The mean of the random variable <em>X</em> is 1.11.

Compute the standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{30\times0.37\times(1-0.37)}=\sqrt{0.6993}=0.836

The standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> is 0.836.
