Answer:

\Huge\boxed{x=7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

The first thing we want to do is find the measure of the large leg

To do so we use the Pythagorean theorem which says a^2+b^2=c^2\\

where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse

we want to find b given the hypotenuse and short leg

so  b^2=c^2-a^2

all we have to do is plug in a ( a = short leg so a would equal 12) and c ( c = hypotenuse so c would equal 37)

so

b^2=37^2-12^2\\37^2=1369\\12^2=144\\1369-144=1225\\b^2=1225\\\sqrt{b^2} =b\\\sqrt{1225} =35\\b=35

so the longer leg is equal to 35

35=5x

divide each side by 5

5x/5=x

35/5=7

we're left with x=7

➷ Standard deviation = \sqrt{(n*p)(1 - p)}

Substitute the values in:

\sqrt{(500 *0.84)(1-0.84)} = 8.1975...

This can be rounded to give an approximate answer of 8.2

The answer is option A.
