<h3>Answer:  HF = 5</h3>

=============================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. I'm adding in points A and B, which are marked in blue. I'm also adding in variables x, y, and z.

The goal is to find HF, so let's make that equal to x. This is also equal to HB because they are radii of the same circle.

Let y be the length of segments JA and JB.

Let z be the length of segments CF and CA.

So in short we have

  • x = HF = HB
  • y = JA = JB
  • z = CF = CA

We know that

  • CH = 13
  • HJ = 19
  • CJ = 22

This must mean

  • CH = CF+HF = z+x = 13
  • HJ = HB+JB = x+y = 19
  • CJ = CA+JA = z+y = 22

Or in short,

  • z+x = 13
  • x+y = 19
  • z+y = 22

Let's solve the first equation for z to get z = -x+13. I subtracted x from both sides.

Now plug this into the third equation to get

z+y = 22

(z) + y = 22

(-x+13) + y = 22 ... replace z with -x+13

-x+13+y = 22

-x+y+13 = 22

-x+y = 22-13 .... subtract 13 from both sides

-x+y = 9

------------------------------------

So we have this reduced system of equations of two variables and two equations

  • x+y = 19 ... found earlier
  • -x+y = 9 .... what we just found above

Add the equations straight down. This is the elimination property.

Doing so leads to the x terms canceling out since x + (-x) = 0x = 0

The y terms add to y+y = 2y

The terms on the right hand side add to 19+9 = 28

We are left with 2y = 28 which solves to y = 28/2 = 14.

If y = 14, then,

x+y = 19

x+14 = 19

x = 19-14

x  = 5

In which we can then say

z = -x+13

z = -5+13

z = 8

Though we don't need to find z (unless you're curious about it).

Since x = 5, and we set HF equal to x, this means that HF = 5.

If a=i+7j+k and b=i+11j+k, find a unit vector with positive first coordinate orthogonal to both a and
Scilla [17]
Take the cross product, then normalize the result.

\mathbf a\times\mathbf b=\begin{vmatrix}\mathbf i&\mathbf j&\mathbf k\\1&7&1\\1&11&1\end{vmatrix}=-4\,\mathbf i+4\,\mathbf k

This has norm

\|\mathbf a\times\mathbf b\|=\sqrt{(-4)^2+4^2}=4\sqrt2

and so a unit vector orthogonal to both given vectors is

\dfrac{\mathbf a\times\mathbf b}{\|\mathbf a\times\mathbf b\|}=-\dfrac1{\sqrt2}\,\mathbf i+\dfrac1{\sqrt2}\,\mathbf k

An equally correct answer would be the negative of this vector, since \mathbf b\times\mathbf a=-\mathbf a\times\mathbf b.

PLEASE HELP MARKING BRAINLIEST DRAW WHERE TO PUT THE DOTS !!!
katrin [286]

Answer:

x-intercept: 0,-1 . y-intercept: -1.5,0

Step-by-step explanation:

When given a point-slope equation y-y=m(x-x), the second x and y values mark a point in the line and the m value is the slope (rise over run). Just graph the line from there (in this case the slope would be 2 down and 3 to the right).

Suppose a simple random sample of size n = 1000 is obtained from a population whose size is N = 2,000,000 and whose population p
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

p(x\geq 520)  = 0.0293

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

random sample size n = 1000

Population size is N - 2,000,000

P = 0.49

We know

\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}

\sigma_ p = \sqrt{\frac{0.49*(1-0.49)}{1000}} = 0.0158

Probability for having X =520

sample proportion \hat p = \frac{520}{1000} = 0.52

p(x\geq 520)  = P(\hat p\geq)

                       = P(Z\geq \frac{0.52 - 0.49}{0.0158})

                       = P(Z\geq 1.89) = 0.0293

p(x\geq 520)  = 0.0293
