Answer: UW= 9√3
Step-by-step explanation:
This right triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle. This is a special triangle. Since this is a special triangle, the hypotenuse is 2x.
The hypotenuse is 18. We can figure out the length of x.
2x=18
x=9
Since we got 9, you would think it is the answer, but it's not. The length across the 60° angle is x√3. Now that we know the length across from 60°, we can plug in x.
9√3
We can check our answer by using Pythagorean Theorem.
9²+(9√3)²=18²
81+243=18²
324=324
Since they are equal, we know we have the right answer.
<h3><u>The value of x is equal to 8.</u></h3>
3(x + 1) = 19 + x
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
3x + 3 = 19 + x
<em><u>Subtract x from both sides.</u></em>
2x + 3 = 19
<em><u>Subtract 3 from both sides.</u></em>
2x = 16
<em><u>Divide both sides by 2.</u></em>
x = 8
Look at it this way:
When you flip a coin, the probability of it landing with EITHER side showing
is 100%.
This leads us to the rule ...
The sum of the probabilities of
all possible outcomes is 100%.
For a coin: (probability of heads) plus (probability of tails) = 100%.
That just says: We're 100% sure that the coin will land with either
heads or tails up.
An "honest" coin gets heads 50% of the time and tails the other 50%.
But if the coin is all bent and squashed and has a feather stuck to
one side and a wad of gum on the other side so that it comes up
heads 70% of the time, then the coin isn't 'honest'. But it still has to
land EITHER heads OR tails, so the sum of the probabilities is still 100%.
So the probability of heads is 30%.
