In a 30°-60°-90° triangle, what is the length of the longer leg when the length of the hypotenuse is 18 inches?

Answer:

9sqrt(3) in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the lengths of the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle is:

short leg : long leg : hypotenuse

      1        :   sqrt(3)  :          2

If the short leg measures 1, then the hypotenuse measures 2.

The length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the short leg.

The length of the long leg is sqrt(3) times the length of the short leg.

If the hypotenuse measures 18 in., then the short leg measures 9 in.

Then the long leg measures 9sqrt(3) in.

The U.S. Department of Transportation provides the number of miles that residents of the75 largest metropolitan areas travel per
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

a. The point estimate of the difference between the mean number of miles that Buffalo residents travel per day and the mean number of miles that Boston residentstravel per day is 88

b. The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.58171,7.21829)

Step-by-step explanation:

a. According to the given data we have the following:

Buffalo residents mean=22.5

Standard deviation=8.4

n=50

Boston residents mean=18.6

Standard deviation=7.4

n=40

Hence, the point estimate is the difference of the means=22.5-18.6=3.9

The standard error=√((s1∧2/n1)+((s2∧2/n2))=√((8.4∧2/50)+(7.4∧2/40))=1.67

Therefore, the difference of miles=n1+n2-2=50+40-2=88

The point estimate of the difference between the mean number of miles that Buffalo residents travel per day and the mean number of miles that Boston residentstravel per day is 88.

b. The critical value of t at 95% confidence level and DoF=88 is 1.987

The interval:(x1-x2)+ (critical value* std error)

=3.9-(1.987*1.67),3.9+(1.987*1.67)

Difference between mean=(0.58171,7.21829)

The 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (0.58171,7.21829)

The answer is 9 you have to multiply 1/4 three times which gives you 1/64 then you take 576 and multiply it by 1/64 which gives you 9. Hope this helps.

An automobile salesman receives a monthly bonus cheque if his commission income is at least $6,800.00 in a given month. There ar
Reika [66]

The salesman earns $850 per automobile he sells.

Since x represents the amount of automobiles the salesman sells, we can apply the commission as a coefficient to this variable. Therefore, the total commission that the salesman earns can be represented by $850x.

The bonus cheque is only received if the salesman's commission income is <em>at least </em>$6,800. 'at least' means that the salesman can still receive the cheque if his commission is exactly $6,800. The sign that we can use for this situation is the greater than or equal to sign, ≥.

The inequality that shows the commission income needed for the cheque is $850x ≥ $6,800. However, this question asks for the number of automobiles the salesman must sell to get the cheque.

Divide both sides by $850, as that represents his sales from one commission:

x ≥ 8

The inequality x ≥ 8 represents the amount of automobiles the salesman will need to sell to get the bonus cheque.
