Answer:

b= 15.72 (rounded) or √247

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2 = c^2

3^2 + b^2 = 16^2

--> simplify

b= 15.72 (rounded) or √247

Answer:

leg^2 + leg^2 = hypotenuse^2

3^2 + x^2 = 6^2

6^2= 36

3^2 = 9

36 - 9 = 27

sqrt of 27 = 5.196

Rounded = 5.2

Hope this helps

I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST!!!!!
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

C. one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of solutions can be found from the number of intersection points.

There are 2 lines, a parabola (curve) and a horizontal line that is parallel to the x axis.

We see that there is 1 point of intersection between the 2 lines, at (2,1)-right 2 and up 1. Therefore, this non linear system has 1 solution.

C. one solution is the correct answer.

elena55 [62]

Answer:

95% of the population spent between 16.8 hours to 26.2 hours on social media per month

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. subtracting 1 from sample size: 83-1= 82
  2. Note Mean=21.5 and standard deviation=2.5
  3. Subtracting confidence interval from 1 and dividing by 2: (1-0.95)/2=0.025
  4. At α=0.025 and dF=82,  the t-distribution table gives  1.984
  5. Divide standard deviation by square root of sample size: 21.5/√83= 2.36
  6. Multiplying answer in step 4 by answer in step 5: 2.36×1.984= 4.68
  7. For lower end: 21.5-4.68= 16.82
  8. for upper end: 21.5+4.68=26.18
