Given:

The vertices of a right triangle are:

(-3,4),(3,4),(3,-4)

To find:

The length of the hypotenuse of the given right triangle.

Solution:

Let the vertices of the right triangle are A(-3,4),B(3,4),C(3,-4).

The distance formula is:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Using distance formula, we get

AB=\sqrt{(3-(-3))^2+(4-4)^2}

AB=\sqrt{(3+3)^2+(0)^2}

AB=\sqrt{(6)^2+0}

AB=\sqrt{36}

AB=6

Similarly,

BC=\sqrt{(3-3)^2+(-4-4)^2}

BC=\sqrt{(0)^2+(-8)^2}

BC=\sqrt{64}

BC=8

And,

AC=\sqrt{(3-(-3))^2+(-4-4)^2}

AC=\sqrt{(6)^2+(-8)^2}

AC=\sqrt{36+64}

AC=\sqrt{100}

AC=10

Now, taking sum of squares of two smaller sides, we get

AB^2+BC^2=6^2+8^2

AB^2+BC^2=36+64

AB^2+BC^2=100

AB^2+BC^2=AC^2

By the definition of the Pythagoras theorem, AC is the hypotenuse of the given triangle.

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 10 units.

The mean annual income for adult women in one city is $28,520 and the standard deviation of the incomes is $5600. The distributi
pshichka [43]

Answer:

E(\bar{x}) = 28520

Standard error of mean = 689

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = $28,520

Standard Deviation, σ = $5600

Mean of sampling distribution =

E(\bar{x}) = \mu = 28520

As per Central Limit Theorem, if the sample size is large enough, then the sampling distribution of the sample means follow approximately a normal distribution.

Sample size, n = 66

Since the sample size is large, we can use normal distribution for approximation.

Standard error of mean =

\displaystyle\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{5600}{\sqrt{66}} = 689.31 \approx 689

32% as a fraction in lowest terms
TiliK225 [7]
32% means 32/100

32/100 = 16/50 = 8/25, which is the lowest you can get because you can no longer divide it to get a whole number.

A; 8/25.

Calculate the total area of the shaded region.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

so hmmm seemingly the graphs meet at -2 and +2 and 0, let's check

\stackrel{f(x)}{2x^3-x^2-5x}~~ = ~~\stackrel{g(x)}{-x^2+3x}\implies 2x^3-5x=3x\implies 2x^3-8x=0 \\\\\\ 2x(x^2-4)=0\implies x^2=4\implies x=\pm\sqrt{4}\implies x= \begin{cases} 0\\ \pm 2 \end{cases}

so f(x) = g(x) at those points, so let's take the integral of the top - bottom functions for both intervals, namely f(x) - g(x) from -2 to 0 and g(x) - f(x) from 0 to +2.

\stackrel{f(x)}{2x^3-x^2-5x}~~ - ~~[\stackrel{g(x)}{-x^2+3x}]\implies 2x^3-x^2-5x+x^2-3x \\\\\\ 2x^3-8x\implies 2(x^3-4x)\implies \displaystyle 2\int\limits_{-2}^{0} (x^3-4x)dx \implies 2\left[ \cfrac{x^4}{4}-2x^2 \right]_{-2}^{0}\implies \boxed{8} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\stackrel{g(x)}{-x^2+3x}~~ - ~~[\stackrel{f(x)}{2x^3-x^2-5x}]\implies -x^2+3x-2x^3+x^2+5x \\\\\\ -2x^3+8x\implies 2(-x^3+4x) \\\\\\ \displaystyle 2\int\limits_{0}^{2} (-x^3+4x)dx \implies 2\left[ -\cfrac{x^4}{4}+2x^2 \right]_{0}^{2}\implies \boxed{8} ~\hfill \boxed{\stackrel{\textit{total area}}{8~~ + ~~8~~ = ~~16}}
