Answer:
8 is your answer. good luck on your test
We know that out of 3000 people, 9 had a alergic reaction.
in this case our 100% is 3000, and we want to know what percentage is equivalent to those 9 that had a mild allergic reaction.
here we can use the rule of 3, this is:
if 3000 is equivalent to 100%, then 9 is equivalent to:
(9/3000)*100% = 0.3%
Answer:
AH = 1 or 4
CH = 4 or 1
Step-by-step explanation:
An altitude divides a right triangle into similar triangles. That means the sides are in proportion, so ...
AH/BH = BH/CH
AH·CH = BH²
The problem statement tells us AH + CH = AC = 5, so we can write
AH·(5 -AH) = BH²
AH·(5 -AH) = 2² = 4
This gives us the quadratic ...
AH² -5AH +4 = 0 . . . . in standard form
(AH -4)(AH -1) = 0 . . . . factored
This equation has solutions AH = 1 or 4, the values of AH that make the factors be zero. Then CH = 5-AH = 4 or 1.
1) use the distance formula to find that the radius (r) of the circle = 5
2) use the midpoint formula to find that the center of the circle (h,k) = (3, 0)
3) Now use the formula of a circle and input the (h,k) and r to create:
(x - 3)² + (y - 0)² = 5² → (x - 3)² + y² = 25
4) input the "x" value given in the question (x = 0) and solve for "y":
(0 - 3)² + y² = 25 → 9 + y² = 25 → y² = 16 → y = +/- 4
Since the question states that "b" must be positive, you can disregard the -4.
Answer: b = 4
