Mathematics

Answer:

x = 62 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right angle, we can use trig functions

cos theta = adjacent/ hypotenuse

cos x = 3.7/7.9

Taking the inverse cos of each side

cos ^ -1 ( cos x) = cos ^-1 (3.7/7.9)

x =62.07246803

To the nearest degree

x = 62 degrees

Find the side length of X

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

7√3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use pythagoreans theorem to solve this

Since, we know one side, and the hypotenuse, we can solve for the other side.

Pythagoreans theorem: a²+b²=c²

Where a and b are two sides, and c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite of the right angle)

In this triangle, 7 is the side, and 14 is the hypotenuse.

I will plug in the values into pythagoreans theorem, and then simplify:

$a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2} \\\\7^{2} +x^{2} =14^{2} \\\\49+x^{2} =196\\\\x^{2} =147\\\\x=\sqrt{147} \\\\x=\sqrt{49*3 }\\\\ x=\sqrt{7^{2} *3 }\\\\x=7\sqrt{3}$

So x = 7√3

What is this answer im being timed so plz help

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

(Kind of cheating but since you're timed I'm just gonna five you the answer:

3/11

Step-by-step explanation:

I got this by guessing a bit, I used what varibles I had and 0.27 & 3 and used them.

So 3/0.27 = 11.11 (Repeating) so then I rounded this to a whole number,

3/11 = 0.27 (Repeating)

G with the definition of covariance, prove cov[(ay − b),(cy − d)] = accov(x, y ), where x, y are random variables and a, b, c, d

____ [38]

By definition of covariance,

$\mathrm{Cov}(X,Y)=\mathbb E[(X-\mathbb E[X])(Y-\mathbb E[Y])]$

$\mathrm{Cov}(X,Y)=\mathbb E[XY-\mathbb E[X]Y-X\mathbb E[Y]+\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y]]=\mathbb E[XY]-\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y]$

We have

$\mathbb E[(aX-b)(cY-d)]=\mathbb E[acXY-adX-bcY+bd]$

$=ac\mathbb E[XY]-ad\mathbb E[X]-bc\mathbb E[Y]+bd$

$\mathbb E[aX-b]=a\mathbb E[X]-b$

$\mathbb E[cY-d]=c\mathbb E[Y]-d$

$\mathbb E[aX-b]\mathbb E[cY-d]=ac\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y]-ad\mathbb E[X]-bc\mathbb E[Y]+bd$

Putting everything together, we find the covariance reduces to

$\mathrm{Cov}(aX-b,cY-d)=ac(\mathbb E[XY]-\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y])=ac\mathrm{Cov}(X,Y)$

as desired.
