Answer:

<h3>10 ft., 12 ft., 15 ft.​</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that for a right triangle, the sum of the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of square of the opposite and the adjacent.

Note that the hypotenuse is the longest side

Checking the given sides 10 ft., 12 ft., 15 ft.​

Hypotenuse = 15ft (longest side)

Take the square of 15

15² = 225

Take the sum of square of other two sides

12²+10²

= 144 + 100

= 244

Since 225≠244, hence the three length could not be used to make a right triangle to fit into the corner of his yard

The straight line ℓ is perpendicular to the line y + 2x = 9 and passes through the point p(4, 3). find the x-intercept of ℓ.
evablogger [386]
The slope of the line l is the opposite reciprocal of y+2x=9. Rearranged the equation to y=9-2x and we get a slope of -2. The opposite reciprocal of -2 is 1/2.

y-y=m(x-x)
y-3=.5(x-4)
y=.5x+1

At the x-intercept, y=0, so
0=.5x+1
-1=.5x
x=-2

A study dealing with health care issues plans to take a sample survey of 1500 Americans to estimate the mean dollar amount that
frutty [35]

Answer:

The population parameter of this study is the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

A population parameter is a numerical measure representing a certain characteristic of the population. For example, population mean, population variance, population proportion, and so on.

The population parameter is computed using all the values of the population.

The population parameter can be estimated using the sample statistic. If the value of the population parameter is not known, then a random sample of large size, say <em>n</em> ≥ 30 can be selected from the population and the statistic value can be computed. This statistic value is considered as the point estimate of the parameter. It is also known as the unbiased estimator of the parameter.

In this case the survey involved sampling of 1500 Americans to estimate the mean dollar amount that Americans spent on health care in the past year.

The sample selected is used to compute the sample mean dollar amount that Americans spent on health care.

So, the population parameter of this study is the population mean.
