As the triangle is equilateral, the height is also the median.

As the median cut the side in two equal halve, and one of this half is 9, then the side is 18.

As the triangle is equilateral, every side is the same measure, so x = 18

A metal plate, with constant density 5 g/cm^2, has a shape bounded by the curbe y = x^2 and the x-axis, with 0<= x <= 3 an

nignag [31]

Answer:

a) 45 g

b) greater (make the graph youself on desmos or something)

c) 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

area = integral 0 to 3 of x^2 dx = [1/3x^3] 0 to 3 = 9

mass = density * area = 5 * 9 = 45 grams

area = y*deltax = x^2*deltax

x = integral 0 to 3 of 5x^3 dx / mass = (405/4) / 45 = 9/4

A litter of 9 kittens available for adoption at the Humane Society has four orange kittens and five black kittens. A family come

Dovator [93]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is required is the probability of selecting one orange and one black kitten.

outcomes ( 1 O and 1B) = 4C1 * 5C1

Total outcomes = 9C2

Note: the order of color does not matter it is simply a matter of selection hence only combinations are made NOT permutations.

P (1O and 1B) = outcomes ( 1 O and 1B) / Total outcomes

P (1O and 1B) = (4C1 * 5C4) / 9C2 = 0.5556

Suppose that the functions s and t are defined for all real numbers x as follows.

Svetllana [295]

$s(x)=2x+4;\ D_s=\mathbb{R}\\\\t(x)=5x;\ D_t=\mathbb{R}\\\\D_s=D_t\\\\(s+t)(x)=s(x)+t(x)=2x+4+5x=7x+4\\\\(s-t)(x)=s(x)-t(x)=2x+4-5x=-3x+4\\\\(s\times t)(x)=(2x+4)\times5x=10x^2+20x$

What are the dimensions of the pond? Please help.

balu736 [363]

Let's assume

length of box is l

width of box is w

we know that

area of rectangle = length*width

$21=l*w$ ...................(1)

now, we are given

fencing length is 20 foot

fencing length will be equal to perimeter

and we know that

$perimeter=2(l+w)$

so, we get

$2(l+w)=20$

now, we can solve for l

$l=10-w$

now, we can plug that in first equation

$21=(10-w)*w$

now, we can solve for w

$10w-w^2=21$

$w^2-10w+21=0$

$(w-7)(w-3)=0$

$w=7 , w=3$

now, we can find length

$l=10-3=7$

$l=10-7=3$

so, option-B..................Answer
