Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle, which fits the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 +b^2 = c^2. The variables a, b, and c all are sides of the triangle, while a and b are the two legs and c is the hypothenuse.

In this problem, we see that 6 and x are the legs and 10 is the hypothenuse. We put 6 as "a" and x as "b" (but it doesn't matter which is a and b) and 10 is c. Therefore, we have the equation:

6^2 + x^2 = 10^2

which further simplifies to:

36 + x^2 = 100

x^2 = 64

and so x would equal 8 (or -8, but it is impossible to have a side length of -8).

Therefore, the missing side is 8.

Answer:

The missing side is x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing side equation is a²+b²=c²

So we plug in 6²+b²=10²

This gives us 8²

What is the solution to this equation? 2x + 3 = x - 4

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, isolate the variables onto one side of the equation.

2x + 3 = x - 4

(subtract x)

x + 3 = -4

Then, remove any remaining numbers.

(subtract 3)

x = -7

I hope this helps!

Simplify the expression (128x^5/8x)^1/2

solong [7]

Answer: 4x'6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify x5 /8. Than, Equation at the end of step 1 : x5 ——) • x)1) ÷ 4 8

Step 2 : 2.1 16 = 24 (16)1 = (24)1 = 24 2.2 x6 raised to the 1 st power = x( 6 * 1 ) = x6

Step 3 : 24x6 Simplify ———— 4

Dividing exponents : 3.1 24 divided by 22 = 2(4 - 2) = 22

which brings us to our final answer above

Last year, 50% of MNM. Inc. employees were female. It is believed that there has been a reduction in the percentage of females i

Serhud [2]

Answer:

We conclude that there has been a significant reduction in the proportion of females.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 400

p = 50% = 0.5

Alpha, α = 0.05

Number of women, x = 118

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: p = 0.50\\H_A: p < 0.50$

This is a one-tailed test.

Formula:

$\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{118}{400} = 0.45$

$z = \dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$

Putting the values, we get,

$z = \displaystyle\frac{0.45-0.50}{\sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{400}}} = -2$

Now, we calculate the critical value.

Now, $z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = -1.645$

Since the calculated z-statistic is less than the critical value, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis.

Thus, there has been a significant reduction in the proportion of females.
