The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the segments into which it divides the hypotenuse ⇒<span>
</span>altitude = √(9*3) = √27
<span>By the Pythagorean theorem:
y = </span>√(9² + (√27)²) = √(81+27) = √108 = 6√3 ← answer
Answer:
(x - 9)(x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - x - 72
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 72) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 1)
the factors are - 9 and + 8, since
- 9 × 8 = - 72 and - 9 + 8 = - 1, thus
x² - x - 72 = (x - 9)(x + 8)
85% liked => 15% didn't like
30 = 15% of x
30 = 0.15 x => x = 30 / 0.15 = 200. This is the total number of students at the library.
Then 200 - 30 = 170 is the number of students whom did like reading mistery stories.
Answer: 170.
