Answer:

$5\sqrt{10}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the length of one leg of the triangle

we know that

In the right triangle of the figure

$cos(45\°)=\frac{x}{10\sqrt{5}}$

and remember that

$cos(45\°)=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}=\frac{x}{10\sqrt{5}}$

$x=(\sqrt{2}*10\sqrt{5})/2$

$x=5\sqrt{10}\ units$

The length of one leg of the triangle $\boxed{5\sqrt {10} }.$

Further explanation:

The Pythagorean formula can be expressed as,

$\boxed{{H^2} = {P^2} + {B^2}}.$

Here, H represents the hypotenuse, P represents the perpendicular and B represents the base.

Isosceles triangle has 2 sides equal to each other and the two base angles are equal to each other.

Given:

The length of the hypotenuse is $10\sqrt 5.$

The options are as follows,

(A). $5\sqrt 5$

(B). $5\sqrt {10}$

(C). $10\sqrt {5}$

(D). $10\sqrt {10}$

Explanation:

The length of the hypotenuse is $10\sqrt 5.$

Consider the length of other leg of the triangle $x$ .

Use the Pythagoras formula in triangle ABC.

$\begin{aligned}{\left( {10\sqrt 5 }\right)^2}&= {\left( x \right)^2} + {\left( x \right)^2}\\100 \times 5&= 2{x^2}\\\frac{{500}}{2}&= {x^2}\\250&= {x^2}\\\end{aligned}$

Further solve the above equation.

$\begin{aligned}{x^2}&= 250\\x&= \sqrt {250}\\x&= 5\sqrt {10} \\\end{aligned}$

Hence, the length of one leg of the triangle $\boxed{5\sqrt {10} }.$

Option (A) is not correct.

Option (B) is correct.

Option (C) is not correct.

Option (D) is not correct.

A study of the amount of time it takes a mechanic to rebuild the transmission for a 1992 Chevrolet Cavalier shows that the mean

Dovator [93]

Answer:

B) 0.0069

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 8.4, \sigma = 1.8, n = 40, s = \frac{1.8}{\sqrt{40}} = 0.2846$

Find the probability that their mean rebuild time exceeds 9.1 hours.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 9.1. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{9.1 - 8.4}{0.2846}$

$Z = 2.46$

$Z = 2.46$ has a pvalue of 0.9931

1 - 0.9931 = 0.0069

So the answer is B.

can someone show me how to find the general solution of the differential equations? really need to know how to do it for the upc

mariarad [96]

The first equation is linear:

$x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}-y=x^2\sin x$

Divide through by $x^2$ to get

$\dfrac1x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}-\dfrac1{x^2}y=\sin x$

and notice that the left hand side can be consolidated as a derivative of a product. After doing so, you can integrate both sides and solve for $y$ .

$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\dfrac1xy\right]=\sin x$
$\implies\dfrac1xy=\displaystyle\int\sin x\,\mathrm dx=-\cos x+C$
$\implies y=-x\cos x+Cx$

- - -

The second equation is also linear:

$x^2y'+x(x+2)y=e^x$

Multiply both sides by $e^x$ to get

$x^2e^xy'+x(x+2)e^xy=e^{2x}$

and recall that $(x^2e^x)'=2xe^x+x^2e^x=x(x+2)e^x$ , so we can write

$(x^2e^xy)'=e^{2x}$
$\implies x^2e^xy=\displaystyle\int e^{2x}\,\mathrm dx=\frac12e^{2x}+C$
$\implies y=\dfrac{e^x}{2x^2}+\dfrac C{x^2e^x}$

- - -

Yet another linear ODE:

$\cos x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\sin x\,y=1$

Divide through by $\cos^2x$ , giving

$\dfrac1{\cos x}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos^2x}y=\dfrac1{\cos^2x}$
$\sec x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\sec x\tan x\,y=\sec^2x$
$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}[\sec x\,y]=\sec^2x$
$\implies\sec x\,y=\displaystyle\int\sec^2x\,\mathrm dx=\tan x+C$
$\implies y=\cos x\tan x+C\cos x$
$y=\sin x+C\cos x$

- - -

In case the steps where we multiply or divide through by a certain factor weren't clear enough, those steps follow from the procedure for finding an integrating factor. We start with the linear equation

$a(x)y'(x)+b(x)y(x)=c(x)$

then rewrite it as

$y'(x)=\dfrac{b(x)}{a(x)}y(x)=\dfrac{c(x)}{a(x)}\iff y'(x)+P(x)y(x)=Q(x)$

The integrating factor is a function $\mu(x)$ such that

$\mu(x)y'(x)+\mu(x)P(x)y(x)=(\mu(x)y(x))'$

which requires that

$\mu(x)P(x)=\mu'(x)$

This is a separable ODE, so solving for $\mu$ we have

$\mu(x)P(x)=\dfrac{\mathrm d\mu(x)}{\mathrm dx}\iff\dfrac{\mathrm d\mu(x)}{\mu(x)}=P(x)\,\mathrm dx$
$\implies\ln|\mu(x)|=\displaystyle\int P(x)\,\mathrm dx$
$\implies\mu(x)=\exp\left(\displaystyle\int P(x)\,\mathrm dx\right)$

and so on.
