The three missing lengths are the left hypotenuse, x, the middle altitude, y, and the right hypotenuse, z.


9/y = y/16


y^2 = 9 * 16


y^2 = 144


y = 12


9^2 + 12^2 = x^2


x^2 = 225


x = 15


12^2 + 16^2 = z^2


z^2 = 400


z = 20


From left to right, the sides measure 15, 12, and 20 units.

The area of the circle is 132.7 square centimeters. What is the diameter
VladimirAG [237]
Equating the formula  (d is the diameter)

\pi d^2/4 = 132.7
d^2 = 132.7*4/\pi
d = \sqrt{169.044586}
d = 13.0017147331
d= 13cm

Three students failed their last test. If 12% of the class failed, how many students are in the class?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

There are 25 students in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of students in the class

12% failed and the number of students is 3

x*12% = 3

x*.12 = 3

Divide each side by .12

x * .12 /.12 = 3/.12

x =25

There are 25 students in the class

The side length of a square ice cube is claimed to be 1.0 inches, correct to within 0.001 inch. Use linear approximation to esti
Olenka [21]

Answer:

0.012

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear approximation says that,

f(x) \approx f(x_o)+f'(x_o)(x-x_o)

For a cube the surface area is 6x^2.

So the side is 1.0 inch in, the surface area is =6\times1^2 = 6 square inches.  

In Linear approximation means you ignore the term x_o^2 , if x_o is a small number, because then x_o^2 will be a very smalle number and that does not contribute much to the error.  

So the surface area is approximately,

6x^2=6x_o^2+12x_o(x-x_o)

So here, x=1.001, x_o=0.001

The error in the area is approximately,

12 \times 0.001=0.012

So the error is 0.012.
