Using Pythagoras Theorem

Hyp² = Adjacent² + Opp²

13² = d² = 12²

d² = 13² - 12²

d² = 169 - 144

d² = 25

d = √25

d = 5

The correct answer is 5, OPTION C IS CORRECT

5) Find the distance between -9 and 12 on a number line.

kati45 [8]

Answer: Hope this helps!!!

Step-by-step explanation:Absolute Value: You need to find how far away both numbers are from zero, then add these values together to see how far apart these numbers. The absolute value of nine, |-9| is 9, and |12| is 12. This means that the nine is nine spots away from zero, and twelve is twelve spots from zero. This means that the numbers are 20 units from each other.

Distance -9 is from 12 You need to find how much of an increase from nine you need to reach the twelve. So -9 + ? = 12. What number can you add to equal twelve? You can add 20 to make the equation true. (? = 20) The distance from -9 to 12 is a positive 20.

Distance from 12 to -9 This is similar to the previous example. What number can you insert to make the 12 equal the negative nine? 12 - ? = -9. The number would be -20, which means that 12 is 20 spots away from the negative nine, as it took at negative twenty to get us to the negative nine.

In a game using a spinner with five equal parts numbered 1 to 5, a contestant wins when the spinner lands on an odd number. Is t

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

A. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The contestant has a 60% chance of winning because they could either spin 1, 3, or 5.

However, unless there's another player who can only spin evens, it's not fair, because the contestant who spins odds has a 60% chance, while this player will only have a 40% chance.

In the Ardmore Hotel, 20 percent of the guests (the historical percentage) pay by American Express credit card. (a) What is the

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

(a) The expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.

(b) The probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X can be defined as the number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card

The probability that a guest paying by American Express credit card is, p = 0.20.

The random variable X follows a Geometric distribution since it is defined as the number of trials before the first success.

The probability mass function of X is:

$P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x}p;\ x=0,1,2,3...,\ 0$

(a)

The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

$E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}$

Compute the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card as follows:

$E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}$

$=\frac{1-0.20}{0.20}$

$=4$

Thus, the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.

(b)

Compute the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout as follows:

$P(X=10)=(1-0.20)^{10}\times0.20$

$=0.1073741824\times 0.20\\=0.02147483648\\\approx0.0215$

Thus, the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.

If x^2+1/x^2=3 find the value of x^2/(x^2+1)^2 Express answer as a common fraction. Thanks!!

timama [110]

$x^2+\dfrac1{x^2}=3\implies x^4+1=3x^2\implies x^4-3x^2+1=0$

By the quadratic formula,

$x^2=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}2\implies x^2+1=\dfrac{5\pm\sqrt5}2$

Then

$(x^2+1)^2=\dfrac{25\pm10\sqrt5+5}4=\dfrac{15\pm5\sqrt5}2$

$\implies\dfrac{x^2}{(x^2+1)^2}=\dfrac{\frac{3\pm\sqrt5}2}{\frac{15\pm5\sqrt5}2}=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}{15\pm5\sqrt5}$

Multiply numerator and denominator by the denominator's conjugate:

$\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}{15\pm5\sqrt5}\cdot\dfrac{15\mp5\sqrt5}{15\mp5\sqrt5}=\dfrac{45\pm15\sqrt5\mp15\sqrt5-25}{15^2-(5\sqrt5)^2}=\dfrac{20}{100}=\dfrac15$
