Using the Pythagorean theorem:
a^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
a^2 + 576 = 676
a^2 = 676 - 576
a^2 = 100
a = SQRT(100)
a = 10
Answer:
1899
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 3234
Standard deviation = 871
Percentage of newborns who weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams:
1492 = 3234 - 2*871
So 1492 is two standard deviations below the mean.
4976 = 3234 + 2*871
So 4976 is two standard deviations above the mean.
By the Empirical Rule, 95% of newborns weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams.
Out of 1999:
0.95*1999 = 1899
So the answer is 1899
Interpreting your expression as

when
approaches zero, the numerator approaches 3:

The denominator approaches 0, because 
Moreover, we have

So, the limit does not exist, because left and right limits are different:

1 nickels =$0.05
1 dime= $0.1
let the number of nickels be x and that of dimes be y.
total number of coins is given by:
x+y=42
hence:
y=42-x.......i
total amount of cash will be:
0.05x+0.1y=3.30.........ii
substituting i in ii we get:
0.05x+0.1(42-x)=3.30
0.05x+4.2-0.1x=3.3
-0.05x=-0.9
x=-0.9/(-0.05)
x=18
hence the the number nickels is x=18, the number of dimes will be y=42-x=42-18=24
Answer: √8
Explanation: x=(5/√8) x (√8 √8)
