Answer:

side a = Smallest = 9 inches

side b = 18 inches

side c = 17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a triangle = side a + side b + side c

side a = Smallest

The perimeter of a triangle is 44 inches.

The length of one side is twice the length of the shortest side

Hence:

b = 2a

The length of the other side is eight inches longer than the length of the shortest side.

Hence,

c = 8 + a

Hence, we substitute into the Intial formula

a + 2a + 8 + a = 44 inches

4a + 8 = 44

4a = 44 - 8

4a = 36

a = 36/4

a = 9 inches

Solving for b

b = 2a

b = 2 × 9 inches = 18 inches

Solving for c

c = a + 8

c = 9 inches + 8 = 17 inches

Suppose that a sample of size 100 is to be drawn from a population with standard deviation L0. a. What is the probability that t
NARA [144]

Answer:

The probability that the sample mean will lie within 2 values of μ is 0.9544.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here

  • the sample size is given as 100
  • the standard deviation is 10

The probability that the sample mean lies with 2 of the value of μ is given as

                                            P(| \bar{X}-\mu|

Here converting the values in z form gives

P(-2

Substituting values

P(-2

From z table

P(z\leq 2)=0.9772\\P(z\leq -2)=0.0228\\P(-2\leq z\leq 2)=P(z\leq 2)-P(z\leq -2)\\P(-2\leq z\leq 2)=0.9772-0.0228\\P(-2\leq z\leq 2)=0.9544\\

So the probability that the sample mean  will lie within 2 values of μ is 0.9544.

Answer: total length of frame material is 3.2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of an object or a plane shape is the distance around the object of plane shape.

Mila plans to frame a poster she bought at a concert. The total length of frame material that she needs would be the perimeter of the rectangular frame. The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

The frame will be rectangular with a base of 0.65 meters and a height of 0.95 meters. Therefore,

Perimeter = 2(0.65 + 0.95)

= 3.2 meters

Arrange the steps to solve the equation square root x+3 - square root 2x-1=-2
stiv31 [10]

Answer:x=31.4919

Step-by-step explanation:

Step1:isolate a square root on the left hand side√x+3=√2x-1-2

Step2:eliminate the radicals on the left hand side

Raise both sides to the second power

√x+3)^2=(√2x-1-2)^2

After squaring

x+3=2x-1+4-4-4√2x-1

Step3:get the remaining radicals by itself

x+3=2x-1+4-4√2x-1

Isolate radical on the left hand side

4√2x-1=-x-3+2x-1+4

4√2x-1=x

Step4:eliminate the radicals on the left hand side

Raise both side to the second power

(4√2x-1)^2=x^2

After squaring

32x-16=x^2

Step 5:solve the quadratic equation

x^2-32x-16

This equation has two real roots

x1=32+√960/2=31.4919

x2=32-√960/2=0.5081

Step6:check that the first solution is correct

Put in 31.4919 for x

√31.4919+3=√2•31.4919-1-2

√34.492=5.873

x=31.4919

Step7:check that the second solution is correct

√x+3=√2x-1-2

Put in 0.5081 for x

√0.5081+3=√2•0.5081-1-2

√3.508=-1.873

1.873#-1.873

One solution was found

x=31.4919
