Answer:

Hence the length of the altitude is:

\sqrt{6.9}=3\sqrt{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Right Triangle Altitude Theorem Part a:</em></u> The measure of the altitude drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right triangle to its hypotenuse is the geometric mean between the measures of the two segments of the hypotenuse.

In terms of our triangle i.e. figure attached to the answer, this theorem simply states :

AD=\sqrt{CD.DB}

Here in our question we are given:

CD=6 and DB=9

Hence the length of the altitude is:

\sqrt{6.9}=3\sqrt{6}

Suppose the number of messages that an inbox receives may be modeled by a Poisson distribution. If the average number of message
docker41 [41]

Answer:

0.36427

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = λ = 18 messages per hour

P(X = x) = (e^-λ)(λ⁻ˣ)/x!

P(X ≤ x) = Σ (e^-λ)(λ⁻ˣ)/x! (Summation From 0 to x)

But the probability required is that the messages thay come in an hour is between 15 and 20, that is, P(15 < X < 20)

P(15 < X < 20) = P(X < 20) - P(X ≤ 15)

These probabilities will be evaluated using a cumulative frequency calculator.

P(X < 20) = 0.65092

P(X ≤ 15) = poissoncdf(18, 15) = 0.28665

P(15 < X < 20) = P(X < 20) - P(X ≤ 15) = 0.65092 - 0.28665 = 0.36427.

Identificación de la intención del mensaje o del texto leído​
Neko [114]

Answer:

La identificación de la intención del mensaje o del texto leído no es otra cosa que la interpretación del mismo. Es decir, a través de la lectura y la identificación de las diferentes variables comunicativas, el lector realiza un análisis del contenido del texto y lo interpreta, buscando dilucidar la intención que el redactor tuvo al momento de escribir el mensaje o texto en cuestión. La interpretación de textos es fundamental para poder comprender lo que se encuentra redactado, es decir, para poder lograr una total comprensión del texto.

What numbers would you multiply -3/4 by to equal 1?
Sonja [21]
You would multiply by -4/3. That's cuz to get to 1, you have to cancel out the negative, with another negative. You then have to multiply by the reciprocal. 

Hope this helps!
