Answer:

9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

a² + b² = c²

Plug in the knowns

a² + 22² = 24²

Subtract 22² from both sides

a² = 24² - 22²

a² = 576 - 484

a² = 92

Take the square root of both sides

a = 9.591663046625438

What does x equal in 7+2/5x=-5
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

x = -30

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 7 from both sides ( 7+2/5x -7, -5-7 )

simplify ( 2/5x = 12 )

multiply both sides by 5 ( 2/5x times 5 = 5 (-12) )

simplify ( 2x = -60 )

divide both sides by 2 ( 2x / 2, -60 / 2 )

x = -30

What kind of distribution is shown in the frequency table?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Skewed to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see in the table, the first three intervals have smaller frequency and last 4 intervals have higher frequency values. When the class intervals and frequency will be plotted on graph while taking class intervals on x-axis and frequency at y-axis, the graph will be skewed to the right because of the larger frequency values in the last intervals..
