ANTONII [103]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

t = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we can use algebraic techniques.

2(t + 5) + t = 4 Distribute the 2.

2t + 10 + t = 4 Combine like terms (variables).

3t + 10 = 4 Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

3t = -6 Divide by 3 on both sides of the equation.

t = -2

The lengths of the sides of a right triangle are a and b, and the hypotenuse is

mamaluj [8]

A^2+b^2=c^2
(2sqrt3)^2+b^2=16
12+b^2=16
solve for b
b=2
Now triangle area is A=1/2 bh
so
A=(1/2)(2)(2sqrt3)
A=2sqrt3

What point is on the graph of every direct variation equation

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: The point (0,0)
This point is also known as the origin

The reason why is because every direct variation equation is of the form y = k*x
where k is some fixed number

If we plugged in x = 0 it leads to y = k*x = k*0 = 0. So (x,y) = (0,0)

Two researchers, Jaime and Mariya, are each constructing confidence intervals for the proportion of a population who is left-

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Jaime's. Interval not centered around the point estimate.

Step-by-step explanation:

When constructing a confidence interval based on a point estimate, the obtained point estimate must be the central value of the interval.

For Jaime's interval

Lower bound = 0.078

Upper Bound = 0.193

$Central = \frac{0.078+0.193}{2} =0.1355$

For Mariya's interval

Lower bound = 0.051

Upper Bound = 0.189

$Central = \frac{0.051+0.189}{2} =0.12$

For a point estimate of 0.12, only Mariya's interval is adequate since Jaime's is not centered around the point estimate.

The length of the sides of a triangle are x, 2x+2, and 13. If the perimeter of the triangle is 30, what is the value of x?

scZoUnD [109]

Add all the sides up to equal 30 in an equation because you are given the perimeter. The perimeter is the length around a two dimensional shape. This means the perimeter is the length of all the side lengths added together.

(x) + (2x + 2) + (13) = 30

Combine like terms.

3x + 15 = 30

Subtract 15 from both sides.

3x = 15

Divide both sides by 3.

$\boxed {x = 5}$
