Find x of the triangle

Mathematics
1 answer:
sukhopar [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

altitude = sqrt(6*8) = 4*sqrt(3)

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to derive x

altitude^2 + 18^2 = x^2

48 + 18^2 = x^2

x^2 = 342

x = 3*sqrt(38)

x = 18.49

Y = x^2+ 7x - 5 can be written in the form y = (x + a)^2+b
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = (x - h)² + k (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex

Given y = x² + 7x - 5

To express in vertex form use the method of completing the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )²

y = x² + 2( \frac{7}{2} )x +\frac{49}{4} - \frac{49}{4} - 5

y = (x + \frac{7}{2} )² - \frac{49}{4} - \frac{20}{4}

y = (x + \frac{7}{2} )² - \frac{69}{4}

Hence

a = \frac{7}{2} and b = - \frac{69}{4}

Answer:

The percentage of people should be seen by the doctor between 13 and

17 minutes is 68% ⇒ 2nd term

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Wait times at a doctor's office are typically 15 minutes, with a standard

 deviation of 2 minutes

- We want to find the  percentage of people should be seen by the

 doctor between 13 and 17 minutes

* To find the percentage we will find z-score

∵ The rule the z-score is z = (x - μ)/σ , where

# x is the score

# μ is the mean

# σ is the standard deviation

∵ The mean is 15 minutes and standard deviation is 2 minutes

∴ μ = 15 , σ = 2

∵ The people should be seen by the doctor between 13 and

   17 minutes

∵ x = 13 and 17

∴ z = \frac{13-15}{2}=\frac{-2}{2}=-1

∴ z = \frac{17-15}{2}=\frac{2}{2}=1

- Lets use the standard normal distribution table

∵ P(z > -1) = 0.15866

∵ P(z < 1) = 0.84134

∴ P(-1 < z < 1) = 0.84134 - 0.15866 = 0.68268 ≅ 0.68

∵ P(13 < x < 17) = P(-1 < z < 1)

∴ P(13 < x < 17) = 0.68 × 100% = 68%

* The percentage of people should be seen by the doctor between

  13 and 17 minutes is 68%
