Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this using Pythagorean Theorem;

a² + b² = c²

c is always the hypotenuse or the longest length in the triangle which is always opposite to the forming 90° angle.

a and b values can be the other 2 legs, doesn’t matter which one is which

we are given;

a = 8

c = 10

a² + b² = c²

(8)² + b² = (10)²

64 + b² = 100

b² = 100 - 64

b² = 36

√b² = √36

b = 6

Therefore the answer = 6

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 9.01 x 10⁸ ice cream cones

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

# of ice cream cones = 1700

5.3 x 10 ⁵ minutes ---------- 1 year

# of ice cream cones purchased in one year = ?

1700 cones --------------------- 1 min

x ---------------------- 5.3 x 10 ⁵ minutes

x = (5.3 x 10 ⁵)(1700)/1 = 901 000 000 ice cream cones

In scientific notation

9.01 x 10⁸ ice cream cones

You read 9.75 pages in your science book and 24.5 pages of a play for English class. It takes you 1.2 minutes to read each page

Sladkaya [172]

9.75 * 1.2 = 11.7
24.5 * .8 = 19.6

11.7+19.6= 31.3 minutes

hope this helped :)

In a recent contest, the mean score was 210 and the standard deviation was 25. a) Find the z-score of John who scored 190 b) Fin

Answer:

a) $Z = -0.8$

b) $Z = 2.4$

c) Mary's score was 241.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 210, \sigma = 25$
