Answer:

44.9 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

We're looking for the perimeter, but we only know 1 side; we need to know all three. First, let's figure out what a is with this equation: a = √h² + (c/2)². Substitute h for 15.31 and c for 12.

a = √15.31² + (12/2)²

<em>Step 1: Divide 12 by 2 to get 6.</em>

a = √15.31² + 6²

<em>Step 2a: The square of 15.31 is 234.3961. For convenience, I'll round this to 234.396.</em>

a = √234.396 + 6²

<em>Step 2b: The square of 6 is 36.</em>

a = √234.396 + 36

<em>Step 3: Add 234.396 and 36 to get 270.396.</em>

a = √270.396

<em>Step 4: The square root of 270.396 is 16.4437222. For convenience, I'll round this to 16.444.</em>

a = 16.444

<em>Note: This value is the same for side b, since this is an </em><em>isosceles</em><em> triangle.</em>

Now, all we need to do is add 16.444 (twice) and 12 to get our perimeter.

(16.444 * 2) + 12

<em>Step 5: Multiply 16.444 by 2 to get 32.888.</em>

32.888 + 12

<em>Step 6: Add 32.888 to 12 to get 44.888.</em>

44.888

<em>Step 7: Now the answer above is the actual answer, but we need to round it to one decimal place. 8 is greater than 5, so this rounds up to 44.9.</em>

The perimeter of this triangle is 44.9 centimeters.

Doss [256]

Answer: a) 11,238,513 and b) 292,201,338

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of white balls = 69

Number of white balls drawn = 5

Number of red balls = 26

Number of red balls drawn = 1

According to question, The Powerball jackpot is won by matching all five white balls in any order and the red Powerball.

So, a) Possible different ways of Powerball tickets can be purchased is given by

^{69}C_5\\\\=11,238,513

And

b) Number of possible ways of different winning Poweball tickets are there would be

26\times ^[69}C_5\\\\=292,201,338

Hence, a) 11,238,513 and b) 292,201,338

How do i solve this inequality? Number 46
myrzilka [38]
6(x-2.5) ≥ 8-6(3.5+x)

A number is before a parenthesis. The first step is to multiply.

6(x-2.5) = 6x -15

8-6(3.5+x)
2(3.5+x)= 7+2x

6x-15≥7+2x

Now solve

6x-15≥7+2x
-2x -2x

(-2x+2x)= They cancel out

(6x-2x)= 4x

4x-15≥7
+15 +15

4x≥22
/4 /4

You get= x≥5.5
