Solve for h in the mathematical formula A=1/2(a+b)h

Mathematics
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we arent given enough information to SOLVE for h, I will get as close as I can by rearranging the equation for h

Convert the fraction to a decimal for simplicity

A = 0.5(a + b)h

Divide both sides of the equals by 0.5

A/0.5 = (a + b)h

We can convert A/0.5 into its reciprocal

2 A = (a + b)h

Divide both sides of the equation by the bracketed (a + b)

(2 A)  /  (a + b) = h

Rewritten

<h2>h =  \frac{2A}{(a + b)}</h2>

Forty percent of households say they would feel secure if they had $50,000 in savings. you randomly select 8 households and ask
Kay [80]

Answer:

Let X be the event of feeling secure after saving $50,000,

Given,

The probability of feeling secure after saving $50,000, p = 40 % = 0.4,

So, the probability of not  feeling secure after saving $50,000, q = 1 - p = 0.6,

Since, the binomial distribution formula,

P(x=r)=^nC_r p^r q^{n-r}

Where, ^nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

If 8 households choose randomly,

That is, n = 8

(a) the probability of the number that say they would feel secure is exactly 5

P(X=5)=^8C_5 (0.4)^5 (0.6)^{8-5}

=56(0.4)^5 (0.6)^3

=0.12386304

(b) the probability of the number that say they would feel secure is more than five

P(X>5) = P(X=6)+ P(X=7) + P(X=8)

=^8C_6 (0.4)^6 (0.6)^{8-6}+^8C_7 (0.4)^7 (0.6)^{8-7}+^8C_8 (0.4)^8 (0.6)^{8-8}

=28(0.4)^6 (0.6)^2 +8(0.4)^7(0.6)+(0.4)^8

=0.04980736

(c) the probability of the number that say they would feel secure is at most five

P(X\leq 5) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3) + P(X=4) + P(X=5)

=^8C_0 (0.4)^0(0.6)^{8-0}+^8C_1(0.4)^1(0.6)^{8-1}+^8C_2 (0.4)^2 (0.6)^{8-2}+8C_3 (0.4)^3 (0.6)^{8-3}+8C_4 (0.4)^4 (0.6)^{8-4}+8C_5(0.4)^5 (0.6)^{8-5}

=0.6^8+8(0.4)(0.6)^7+28(0.4)^2(0.6)^6+56(0.4)^3(0.6)^5+70(0.4)^4(0.6)^4+56(0.4)^5(0.6)^3

=0.95019264

Help WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The correct choice is the third answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The arrow on top of the letters means that they would be parallel.  If you look closely at the diagram, you can see that both QR and TU go in the same direction and will never intersect.

In ΔCDE, \overline{CE}
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

m\angle CDE=14^o

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

so

∠DEF=∠ECD+∠CDE

substitute the given values

(4x+5)^o=(x+9)^o+(x+8)^o

solve for x

Combine like terms

(4x+5)^o=(2x+17)^o

Group terms

4x-2x=17-5

2x=12

x=6

Find the measure of angle CDE

m\angle CDE=(x+8)^o

substitute the value of x

m\angle CDE=(6+8)=14^o

If the farmer has 250 feet of fencing to create a rectangular pen, define a function f that expresses the area of the field (mea
hoa [83]

Answer:

Maximum area possible

f(max)  = 3906,25 ft²

Dimensions:

a  = 62,5  ft

w  = 62,5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the rectangular fencing    P  =  250 feet

And sides of the rectangle  a  and  w (width of rectangle)

Then

A =  a*w

2a  + 2w  = 250       ⇒  a  =  (250 -2w)/ 2    ⇒  a = 125 - w

f(w)  =  (125  - w ) *w        f(w)  = 125w - w²  

Taking derivatives both sides of the equation

f´(w)   =  125  - 2w              f´(w)   = 0           125  - 2w = 0

w = 125/2

w = 62,5 ft            ⇒  a = 125 - 62,5

a = 62,5 ft

f(max)  = ( 62,5)²

f(max)  = 3906,25 ft²
