Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

h = 2 A/b

A = 160

b = 40

160/40 = 4

2 x 4 = 8 inches

The height of the triangles is 8in.

hope this helps!! p.s. i really need brainliest :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using<em> Simple Random Sampling</em>, we can estimate the sample size by the formula

$\bf n=\frac{Z^2S^2}{e^2}$

where

n = sample size

Z = the z-score corresponding to the confidence level 99.5%

S = the assumed standard deviation = 3 seconds

e = margin of error = 2 seconds

<em>It is worth noticing that the higher the confidence level, the larger the sample should be. </em>

The z-score corresponding to a confidence level of 99.5% can be obtained either with a table or the computer and equals

Z = 3.023

Replacing the values in our formula

$\bf n=\frac{(3.023)^23^2}{2^2}=20.5616\approx 21$

So the size of the sample should be at least 21.

Can someone create two expressions that are equivalent to 3(4j + 4 + j). Please show all steps in your work.

NNADVOKAT [17]

12j + 12 + 3j or 15j + 12. This is because if you use Distributive Property to distribute the 3, then you multiply 3 by all the number inside the parentheses. I have two expressions because once you get get the answer after you use the property, then you can combine like terms, such as 12j and 3j which is 15j. Hope this helps!

James determined that these two expressions were equivalent expressions using the values of x = 4 and x = 6. Which statements ar

GaryK [48]

Answer:

The expressions 7x + 4 and 3x + 5 + 4x = 1 are equivalent for every value of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressions - 7x + 4 and 3x + 5 + 4x = 1.

1. When x = 2, both expressions have a value of 18. Let's find out:

1st expression : 7(2) + 4 = 14+4 = 18

2nd expression : 3(2) + 5 + 4(2) = 1

or 6 + 5 + 8 - 1 = 18

Values of both the expressions is 18, hence it is correct statement.

2.The expressions are only equivalent for x = 4 and x = 6.

This is incorrect statement as we just calculated above that the expressions are equivalent for x = 2. Hence, it is incorrect.

3. The expressions have equivalent values for any value of x.

Say, x = 0, then,

7x + 4 = 7 (0) + 4 = 4 and,

3x + 5 + 4x - 1 = 3(0) + 5 + 4(0) - 1 = 5-1 = 4

The statement holds.

Let's try again for x = 12,

7x + 4 = 7(12) + 4 = 88 and,

3x + 5 + 4x - 1 = 3(12) + 5 + 4(12) - 1 = 36 + 5 + 48 -1 = 88

Let's try again for x = 13,

7x + 4 = 7(13) + 4 = 95 and,

3x + 5 + 4x - 1 = 3(13) + 5 + 4(13) - 1 = 39 + 5 + 52 -1 = 95

Clearly, it holds for every value of x, whether it is odd or even. Hence, it is correct statement.

_______________________________________________________

Trick: 7x + 4 = 0....(1) and,

3x + 5 + 4x = 1

Rearranging the terms of above expression, we get,

(3x + 4x) + (5 - 1) =0

or 7x + 4 = 0...(2)

clearly both (1) & (2) are equivalent.
