Answer:

x= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar so the ratios of both should be the same. Triangle DEF is 15 times bigger than triangle ABC so 60 divided by 15 is 4. Moral of the story 4 equals X

Please help me solve this 5^2x=7^x+1

denis23 [38]

Answer:

$x=\frac{ln7}{2ln5-ln7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

5^2x=7^x+1 ⇔ ln5^2x = ln7^x+1 ⇔ 2xln5 = (x+1)ln7 ⇔ (2ln5-ln7)x = ln7

⇔ x = ln7/(2ln5-ln7)

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 9 cm and the other leg measures 11 cm.

ikadub [295]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 14.2 \ cm}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the sides.

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

where <em>a</em> and<em> b</em> are the legs and <em>c</em> is the hypotenuse. In this triangle, we know the legs are 9 centimeters and 11 centimeters, or:

a= 9 cm
b= 11 cm

Substitute these values into the formula.

$(9 \ cm)^{2} +(11 \ cm)^{2} =c^{2}$

Solve the exponents.

(9 cm)²= 9 cm*9 cm=81 cm²

$81 \ cm^{2} +(11 \ cm)^{2} =c^{2}$

(11 cm)²= 11 cm*11 cm= 121 cm²

$81 \ cm^{2} +121 cm^{2} =c^{2}$

Add the values on the left side.

$202 \ cm^{2} =c^{2}$

Since we are solving for c, we must isolate the variable. It is being squared and the inverse of a square is the square root. Take the square root of both sides.

$\sqrt {202 \ cm^{2} }=\sqrt{c^{2} }$

$\sqrt {202 \ cm^{2} }=c$

$14.2126704036 \ cm =c$

We are told to round to the nearest tenth.

14.2<u>1</u>26704036

The 1 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 2 in the tenth place.

$14.2 \ cm= c$

The hypotenuse is equal to <u>14.2 centimeters.</u>

<h3>Answer:</h3>

3) likely

4) 1/2; equally likely

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

3) You are being asked to translate a numerical value to a subjective statement. There are no hard-and-fast rules for this. Generally, the meanings of the terms you're asked to choose from are ...

impossible: probability is zero. The outcome cannot occur.
unlikely: chances are less than even; often, "unlikely" means a probability of 10%, 5%, 1% or lower, depending on the context.
equally likely: probability is near 50%
likely: more likely than not. Again, this depends on the context.
certain: probability is 1. There is no chance the outcome will not occur.

An 80% probability is greater than 50%, so might reasonably be called "likely."

___

4) a. Four of the eight numbers are even, so the probability of obtaining an even number at random is 4/8 = 1/2.

b. A probability of 50% might reasonably be called "equally likely", as the probability the event will occur is equal to the probability it won't.
