According to Pythagorean theorem,

Δ  (Hypotenuse)² = (1st Leg)² + (2nd Leg)²

⇒  (x + 8)² = x² + 12²

⇒  x² + 64 + 16x = x² + 144

⇒  16x = 80

⇒ x = 5

Hypotenuse = (x + 8) = (5 + 8) = 13

1st Leg = 5

2nd Leg = 12

We know that : Perimeter is the Sum of all sides of the Triangle

⇒  Perimeter = Hypotenuse + 1st Leg + 2nd Leg

⇒  Perimeter = 13 + 5 + 12

⇒  Perimeter = 30

We know that :

\bigstar \ \ \boxed{\sf{\textsf{Area of a Triangle is given by} : \dfrac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height}}

Base = 1st Leg

Height = 2nd Leg

\implies \sf{\textsf{Area of the Triangle} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 5 \times 12}

\implies \sf{\textsf{Area of the Triangle} = 30}

Answer:

Perimeter = 30

Area = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+8)^2 -x^2 = 12^2

x^2 +16x +64 - x^2 = 144

16x+64=144

16x = 80

x = 5

Double check:

\sqrt{12^2 + 5^2} = (5+8)\\\sqrt{12^2 + 5^2} = 13\\13 = 13

Perimeter:

12+5+13=30

Area(\frac{1}{2}bh):

\frac{1}{2} × 12 × 5 = 30

There is a probability of 77% that the mean of this sample is between 19.25 hours and 21.0 hours

Z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} } \\\\where\ x=raw\ score,\mu=mean,\sigma=standard\ deviation,n=sample\ size

Given that μ = 20, σ = 7, n = 125.

For x = 19.25:

z=\frac{19.25-20}{7/\sqrt{125} } =-1.20\\\\\\For\ x=21:\\\\z=\frac{21-20}{7/\sqrt{125} } =0.62

From the normal distribution table, P(-1.20 < z < 0.62) = P(z < 0.62) - P(z < -1.2) = 0.8849 - 0.1151 = 0.7698 = 77%

There is a probability of 77% that the mean of this sample is between 19.25 hours and 21.0 hours

Which expression represents the volume of the pyramid? One-fifth(5.2)h cm3 StartFraction 1 Over 5 h EndFraction(5.2)h cm3 One-th
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

1/3(5.2)h cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

A solid right pyramid has a regular hexagonal base with an area of 5.2 cm2 and a height of h cm. Which expression represents the volume of the pyramid?

One-fifth(5.2)h cm3 StartFraction 1 Over 5 h EndFraction(5.2)h cm3

One-third(5.2)h cm3 StartFraction 1 Over 3 h EndFraction(5.2)h cm3

Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 × area × height

Area = 5.2 cm²

Height = h cm

Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 × 5.2 cm² × h cm

= 1/3(5.2)h cm³
