<u>Answer:</u>

  • The length of the hypotenuse is 17 km.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<em>Since this is a right triangle, we can use Pythagoras theorem to solve for c.</em>

  • c² = 15² + 8²
  • => c² = 225 + 64
  • => c² = 289
  • => c = 17

Hence, the length of the hypotenuse is 17 km.

Hoped this helped.

Answer:

c = 17 Km

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides , that is

c² = 8² + 15² = 64 + 225 = 289 ( take square root of both sides )

c = \sqrt{289} = 17 Km

Can someone help me with this??
Hoochie [10]

Firstly , we will find

angle of inclination

Let's that angle as 't'

we are given

hypotenuse= 350

opposite =32

so, we can use sin

and find angle

sin(t)=\frac{32}{350}

t=sin^{-1}(\frac{32}{350})

we will get

t=5.24

so, angle of depression will also be

=5.2............Answer

Sickle-cell disease is caused by a recessive allele. Roughly one out of every 500 African Americans (0.2%) is afflicted with sic
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

heterozygous (Aa) are 0.085 = or 8.54%

Step-by-step explanation:

The heterozygous individuals are carriers of the sickle cell trait. They have a genotype of Aa and are represented by the 2pq term

in the H-W equilibrium equations.

According to the question 0.2% of the population is affected with sickle cell anemia, thus q^2

= 0.2% = 0.002 in decimal. So, q =

sqr(q^2)

or sqr(0.002) =

0.04472

and p + q = 1, thus p = 1 – q = 1 – 0.04472 = 0.96

Thus, A allele has a frequency of 0.96 and the a allele has a frequency of 0.04472. Therefore, the

percentage of the population that is heterozygous (Aa) and are carriers is = 2pq = 2× 0.04472× 0.96 =0.085 = or 8.54%

Someone explain!! geometry
ikadub [295]

Step-by-step explanation:

sin 0 = opposite ÷ hypothenus

sin 0 = 3 / 5

3 / 5 = x / 15

5 × n = 15

n = 3

x = 3 × 3 = 9

y = use pythagoras

= 12

tan 0 = opposite ÷ adjacent

tan 0 = 9/12

Which pair of ratios can form a true proportion?
Kamila [148]

A true proportion is an equation that states that two ratios are equal.

1) The given ratios in their lowest form are:

\frac{1}{2} and \frac{6}{10} =\frac{3}{5}

The two ratios are not equal.

2) The given ratios in their lowest form are :

\frac{6}{8} =\frac{3}{4}  and \frac{5}{20} =\frac{1}{4}

The two ratios are not equal.

3) The given ratios in their lowest form are :

\frac{3}{5} and \frac{6}{10} =\frac{3}{5}

The two ratios are equal and hence it is True proportion

4) The given ratios in their lowest form are :

\frac{3}{9} =\frac{1}{3} and \frac{7}{80}

The two ratios are not the same .

The third option the ratios \frac{3}{5} and \frac{6}{10} are in true proportion.
