Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144

FOIL

8(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 1144

Divide each side by 8

8/8(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 1144/8

(n^2 +2n+4n+8) = 143

Combine like terms

n^2 +6n+8 = 143

Subtract 143 from each side

n^2 +6n+8 -143= 0

Combine like terms

n^2 +6n -135 =0

Factor

What two terms multiply to -135 and add to 6

-9*15 =-135

-9+15 = 6

(n-9) (n+15) =0

Using the zero product property

n-9 =0    n+15=0

n = 9   n=-15

The length cannot be negative so n = -15 cannot be  a solution

n =9

Answer:

n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144

(n + 2)(n + 4) = 143

n² + 2n + 4n + 8 = 143

n² + 6n - 135 = 0

n² + 15n - 9n - 135 = 0

n(n + 15) - 9(n + 15) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 15) = 0

n = 9, -15

since n is a length, it can not be negative

Therefore the only solution is n = 9

Answer:

  72°

Step-by-step explanation:

You correctly found x, but the measure of the angle is ...

  4x-22 = 4·23.5-22 = 72°

___

or (6x-69)° = (141-69)° = 72°

Use this picture to solve for X
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

i would set up a system of equation using the pythagorean theorem:

1^2+x^2=z^2

4^2+x^2=y^2

Add up these equations to get:

17+2x^2=y^2+z^2

But notice that

y^2+z^2=5^2

So you can substitute

17+2x^2=25

2x^2=8

x^2=4

x=2

Standard deviation = √(n * p * q)

You are given n and p

q = 1 - p

q = 1 -0.2 = 0.8

Standard deviation = √(21 * 0.2 * 0.8)

=√3.36 = 1.83

The answer is A.
