Answer:

The student is wrong because the sum of any two sides of a triangle should be greter than the third side. The length of a single side of a triangle can not be half or more than half of the perimeter of that triangle. And since the given length is more than half of the perimeter , the student is incorrect .

The legs of a right triangle are 6 units and 7 units. What is the length of the hypotenuse?
Ksju [112]

Answer: Square root 85 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The legs of a right triangle are 6 units and 7 units.

Let h be the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

By Pythagoras theorem of right triangle, we have

h=\sqrt{6^2+7^2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=\sqrt{36+49}\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=\sqrt{85}

Hence, the  length of the hypotenuse=\sqrt{85}\text{ units.}

  • Pythagoras theorem of right triangle says that the square of the hypotenuse  is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In a bolt factory, machines 1,2, and 3 respectively produce 20%, 30% and 50% of the total output. of their respective outputs 5%
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

a. 1/10 or 10%

b. 1/2 or 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the combination of machines 1, 2 and 3 produce 100% of the total output when added together, then the probability of choosing a bolt at random that is defective is: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10% out of 100% or 10/100, which is 1/10 or 10%.

If the bolt that is choosen at random is defective, than the probability that it came from machine 1 is 5/10 or 1/2 which is also 50%.
