Answer: 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the ratio of the side length of a square to the square's perimeter is always 1 to 4.

We are further told that Peter drew a square with a perimeter of 28 inches. The side length of the square Peter drew will be gotten by dividing 28 inches by 4. This will be:

= 28/4

= 7 inches

Therefore, the side length or the square is 7 inches.

Vladimir [108]

Given:

In △ABC is a right angle triangle.

AC is 6 units longer than side BC.

Hypotenuse=2\sqrt{17}

To find:

The length of AC.

Solution:

Let the length of BC be x.

So, Length of AC = x+6

According to the Pythagoras theorem, in a right angle triangle

Hypotenuse^2=Base^2+Perpendicualar^2

△ABC is a right angle triangle and AC is hypotenuse, so

(2\sqrt{17})^2=(x)^2+(x+6)^2

68=x^2+x^2+12x+36            [\because (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2]

Subtract 68 from both sides.

0=2x^2+12x+36-68

0=2x^2+12x-32

0=2(x^2+6x-16)

Divide both sides by 2.

x^2+6x-16=0

Splitting the middle term, we get

x^2+8x-2x-16=0

x(x+8)-2(x+8)=0

(x+8)(x-2)=0

x=-8,2

Side cannot be negative, so x=2 only.

Now,

AC=x+6

AC=2+6

AC=8

Therefore, the length of AC is 8 units.

The probability density of a random variable X is given in the figure below.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

0.47

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find P(X > 1.18).

(2 − 0) / 1 = (2 − 1.18) / x

2x = 0.82

x = 0.41

Next, find P(X < 0.12).

(2 − 0) / 1 = (0.12 − 0) / x

2x = 0.12

x = 0.06

So the total probability is 0.41 + 0.06 = 0.47.

These are chords of a circle, and the equation to solve for any unknowns is to multiply the 2 sections of one chord and set it equal to the mutiplied 2 sections of the other chord.  In our case that will look like this: x * 15 = 6 * 5.  That's 15x=30.  x = 2
