Answer:
one fraction 17/5
mixed number: 3 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the point, find the location
realize that the shortest line that crosses through the origin and y=9x+8 is perpendicular to y=9x+8
perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to get -1
y=9x+8 has a slope of 9
9*m=-1, m=-1/9
the slope of the mystery line is -1/9
since it passes through the origin, the y intercept is 0
y=(-1/9)x is the equation of the line from the point to the origin
find the intersection of this line and the original line
set them equal to each other
(-1/9)x=9x+8
multily both sides by 9
-x=81x+72
minus 81 both sides
-82x=72
divide both sides by -82
x=-36/41
find y
y=(-1/9)x
y=(-1/9)(-36/41)
y=4/41
the point is 
We don’t know the value of the shorter side, so we will categorize it as x. Side 2 is just 4 feet longer than x, so we would add 4 on to it. Side 3 has double the x, so we would multiply it be 2 for 2x, and subtract the 4 feet from it.
Side 1: x
Side 2: x + 4
Side 3: 2x - 4
If the perimeter is 64 feet, then all of the sides have to add up to it. Therefore, first we add all of the side lengths up:
x + x + 4 + 2x - 4 = 4x.
Now we put 4x, the amount of all these sides added up, equal to the perimeter of 64.
4x = 64. Divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself.
x = 16.
Now that we know x is 16, we will substitute it in for all the side lengths’ equations.
We know that Side 1 was just x, so that will be 16. Since Side 2 was 4 more than x, we’d do 16 + 4 = 20. We substitute 16 in for x in Side 3’s equation: 2(16) - 4 = 32 - 4 = 28.
Therefore, the final lengths of all the sides are:
Side 1: 16
Side 2: 20
Side 3: 28
Answer:
182.41
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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.
In this problem, we have that:

40th percentile
Value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.4. So X when Z = -0.253.




So the answer is 182.41.
I think we’re talking about the 15, the smallest number for 15 would be 3. Because 3 x 5 = 15
