2.There is this theorem stating that the length of the altitude drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the geometric mean between the segments that the hypotenuse is divided into. In numerical form it would look like this:

6/altitude = altitude/x-6

We can solve the length of the altitude by using Pythagorean Theorem. The altitude creates two triangles within the large triangle. We will be using 6 and 10 to find the altitude. Fortunately, instead of squaring the sides we can simply use the common triple: 3,4,5 to deduce that the length of the altitude is 8. 

Now that we have the value for the altitude we can substitute it into the equation above.

6/8=8/x-6
Cross multiply
64 = 6x - 36
Add 36 to both sides
100 = 6x
50=3x
50/3=x

13. There is another theorem that <span>an angle bisector of a triangle will divide the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle. In numerical form it would look like this:
20/x = 12/6
cross multiply
12x = 120
x=10</span>

You want to estimate the number of students in your middle school school who buy school lunch. Which sample is unbiased?
Nezavi [6.7K]
A biased example: Asking students who are in line to buy lunch 

An unbiased example: Asking students who are leaving/going to lunch(<em>NOT buying </em><em>lunch</em><em />).

But in this case, the answer choices can be... confusing.
Don't panic! You're given numbers and, of course, your use of logic.

Answer choice A: 100 students grades 6-8
Answer choice B: 20-30 students any <em>one</em> grade<em></em><em>
</em>Answer choice C: 5 students
<em></em>Answer choice D: 50 students grade 8

An unbiased example would be to choose students from <em>any grade.</em> So we can eliminate choices B and D.

Now, the question wants to <em>estimate how many people at your middle school buy lunch.</em> This includes the whole entire school, and if you are going to be asking people, you aren't just going to assume that if 5 people out of 5 people you asked bought lunch, the whole school buys lunch.

So, to eliminate all bias and/or error by prediction, answer choice A, the most number of students, is your answer.

I need help with number 10 please I’m so confused on how to do it!
Solnce55 [7]

Given:

A figure.

m \angle C D A=9 x+3 and m \angle E D A=6 x+5

To find:

What kind of figure and the value of x

Solution:

All four sides are congruent.

Diagonals bisect each other.

There the given figure is rhombus.

Diagonals bisect the angles.

⇒ m \angle C D A=m \angle E D A

9 x+3=6x+5

Subtract 3 on both sides.

9 x+3-3=6x+5-3

9 x=6x+2

Subtract 6x from both sides.

9 x-6x=6x+2-6x

3x=2

Divide by 3 on both sides.

$\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{2}{3} $

$x=\frac{2}{3} $

The value of x is \frac{2}{3}.

Help please ..............
Cloud [144]

Answer:

x = 437.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at the top of the triangle = 90° - 29° = 61°

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin61° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{x}{500}

Multiply both sides by 500

500 × sin61° = x, hence

x ≈ 437.3
