Given:

Consider the three number are given by:

a=x^2-y^2

b=2xy

c=x^2+y^2

To find:

The three numbers are the Pythagorean triple generated by using 4 for x and 1 for y.

Solution:

We have,

a=x^2-y^2

b=2xy

c=x^2+y^2

Substituting 4 for x and 1 for y, we get

a=4^2-1^2

a=16-1

a=15

Similarly,

b=2(4)(1)

b=8

And,

c=4^2+1^2

c=16+1

c=17

The three three numbers are the Pythagorean triple are 8,15 and 17.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Hamish and Harry work as plumbers. Harry earns a dollar more than the amount Hamish earns per hour. The amount Harry earns per h
natulia [17]

Answer:

Hamish and Harry work as plumbers. Harry earns a dollar an hour more than 5/4 the amount hamish earns per hour. harry earns per hour is 2$ less than 7/5 the amount hamish earns per hour. how much do each of them make an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x is the  amount Harry earns 

y is the amount Hamish earns 

x=(5/4)y+1 ⇒ (x-1)*4/5 = y-------- equation 1

x=(7/5)y-2⇒ (x+2)*5/7 = y-------- equation 2

equals 1 and 2

(x-1)*4/5 = (x+2)*5/7

(4x-4)/5 = (5x+10)/7

(4x-4)*7 = (5x+10)*5

28x-28 = 25x+50

28x-25x = 50+28

3x = 78

x = 26

substitute x = 26 for y=(x-1)*4/5

y = (x-1)*4/5

y =  (26-1)*4/5

y = 20

the answer is

<h3>Harry earns $26 an hour</h3><h3>Hamish earns  $20 an hour</h3>

The annual rainfall (in inches) in a certain region is normally distributed with = 40 and = 4. What is the probability that star
sdas [7]

Answer:

0.93970

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Denote a random variable "X" The annual rainfall (in inches) in a certain region . The random variable follows a normal distribution with parameters mean ( μ ) and standard deviation ( σ ) as follows:

                          X ~ Norm ( μ , σ^2 )

                          X ~ Norm ( 40 , 4^2 ).

- The probability that it rains more than 50 inches in that certain region is defined by:

                          P ( X > 50 )

- We will standardize our test value and compute the Z-score:

                          P ( Z > ( x - μ )  / σ )

Where, x : The test value

                          P (  Z > ( 50 - 40 )  / 4 )

                          P (  Z > 2.5 )

- Then use the Z-standardize tables for the following probability:

                          P ( Z < 2.5 ) = 0.0062

Therefore,          P ( X > 50 ) = 0.0062

- The probability that it rains in a certain region above 50 inches annually. is defined by:

                           q = 0.0062 ,

- The probability that it rains in a certain region rains below 50 inches annually. is defined by:

                           1 - q = 0.9938

                           n = 10 years   ..... Sample of n years taken

- The random variable "Y" follows binomial distribution for the number of years t it takes to rain over 50 inches.

                          Y ~ Bin ( 0.9938 , 0.0062 )

- The probability that it takes t = 10 years for it to rain:

                         =  10C10* ( 0.9938 )^10 * ( 0.0062 )^0

                         = ( 0.9938 )^10

                         = 0.93970
