Answer: 5..6 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Hypotenuse of isosceles triangle is 8 inches

In isosceles triangle two sides are equal

Suppose the other side is x

Using Pythagoras we can write

\Rightarrow x^2+x^2=8^2\\\Rightarrow 2x^2=64\\\Rightarrow x^2=32\\\Rightarrow x=4\sqrt{2}\approx 5.6\ in.

Therefore, the lengths of the legs is 5.6 inches

A given line has the equation 10x + 2y = −2.
stepladder [879]
10x + 2y = -2

2y = -10x -2

y = -5x - 1 (slope is -5 and a parallel line will have the same slope)


y = mx + b

slope(m) = -5

12 = -5(0) + b

12 = 0 + b

12 = b

so the parallel line is y = -5x + 12

hope this helps, God bless!

Setting:
nata0808 [166]
A. Mr. Kent interviewed the 54 students as they are going to leave the school, it is not considered to be a random sample. It is because a random sample is when a set is taken from a population. Mr. Kent interviewed the 54 who are going to leave, meaning, he didn't take a set out of that 54, he took all of them. So it is not a random sample.

b. The question that Mr. Kent asked is considered to be a leading question, so it does not seem biased.

c. If there are 54 respondents.
51 = yes, the rest is no.
= 54 - 51 = 3
= 3 is now divided to 54 = 3/54
= giving an answer of 0.0555
= 0.0555 x 100
= 5.6%
= The percent of responses that says 'no' is 5.6%
