Find the value of x to the nearest tenth

Mathematics

Answer:

x ≈ 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle on the left

let third side be h , then

h² + 9² = 10²

h² + 81 = 100 ( subtract 81 from both sides )

h² = 19

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle on the right

x² + 3² = h²

x² + 9 = 19 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

x² = 10 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{10} ≈ 3.2 ( to the nearest tenth )

Answer:

Look below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Good ol' Pythagorean Theorem.

To find the short side of the larger triangle, we'll use this equation:

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\\\9^2+b^2=10^2\\81+b^2=100\\

You can solve the rest on your own.

Use the same type of equation for the smaller triangle, except your b would be the hypotenuse, so that equation would look something like this:

3^2+x^{2} = b^2

Hope it helped! Also, there seems to be a help video, if you didn't understand this explanation, why don't you go ahead and watch it?

There are 16 marbles in a bag 12 of them are blue and 4 are yellow. what is the probability of picking a blue marble then a yell
Art [367]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

the prob that you will pick a blue marble would be 12/16, easy.

then the prob of picking a yellow marble after that would be 4/15 since one marble is already missing. multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction. so 12 x 4 and 16 x 15 to get 48/240. then divide each by 48 to get 1/5.
