Let one side be=x,the longer side =x+7use pythagoras theoremH^2=b^2+h^2169=x^2+(x+7)^2169=2x^2+14x+490=2x^2+14x-1200=(2x-10)(x+12) x=5 or -12,since it is length x=5 the longer side=5+7=12confirmation169=144+25

Katrina wants to estimate the proportion of adults who read at least 10 books last year. to do​ so, she obtains a simple random
Vaselesa [24]
E=Z*sqrt (p(1-p)/N), where E= error margin, p=proportion, N=sample size

Katrina's margin error at 85% confidence interval: E=1.96*sqrt (p(1-p)/100) = 0.196 sqrt (1(1-p))

Mathew's margin error at 99% confidence interval: E= 2.58*sqrt (p(1-p)/400) = 0.129 sqrt (p(1-p))

Since both obtained same estimate of proportion (that is, value of p), it can be seen that Mathew's estimate will have a small error (That is, 0.129 is smaller than 0.196). This can be attributed to larger sample size although a wider confidence (99%) interval was considered.

• What is the solution to 5x+ 20 = 7(x+2)?
o-na [289]

For this case we must find the solution of the following equation:

5x + 20 = 7 (x + 2)

Applying distributive property on the right side of the equation we have:

5x + 20 = 7x + 14

Subtracting 7x from both sides of the equation:

5x-7x + 20 = 14\\-2x + 20 = 14

Subtracting 20 from both sides of the equation:

-2x = 14-20

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

-2x = -6

Dividing between -2 on both sides of the equation:

x = \frac {-6} {- 2}\\x = 3

Thus, the solution of the equation isx = 3

Answer:

x = 3

How many different 5-person subcommittees can be formed from a club having 12 members
Wittaler [7]
Given that there are 12 persons, the first choice may be in 12 different ways, the second choice may be in 11 different ways, ther third in 10 different ways, the fourth in 9 different ways and the fith in 8 different ways, for a total of:

12x11x10x9x8 different combinations.

Now you have to take in account that 5x4x3x2 are repetitions. So you have to divide the previos counting by 5x4x3x2.

(12x11x10x9x8)/(5x4x3x2) = 792 different subcommittees.

Also, you can use the formula for combinations: C(m,n) = m! / (n! (m-n)!)

C (12, 5) = 12! / (5!) (12-5)! = [12x11x10x9x8x7!] / [5! 7!] = [12x11x10x9x8]/[5x4x3x2] = 792
