Answer:

15.65 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem can be used

a² + b² = c²

a being 14
b being unknown ( x )
c being 21

hence,

14² + x² = 21²
196 + x² = 441

x = √245  

  = 15.65 foot (answer)

Use the probability distribution table to answer the question.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

0.88

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x≥2) = P(x=2) + P(x=3) + P(x=4) + P(x=5) + P(x=6)

P(x≥2) = 0.21 + 0.35 + 0.21 + 0.06 + 0.05

P(x≥2) = 0.88

Or, you can calculate it as:

P(x≥2) = 1 - P(x=1) - P(x=0)

P(x≥2) = 1 - 0.09 - 0.03

P(x≥2) = 0.88

Write the expression in factored form s^2-20s-100
KatRina [158]

Answer:

The factors of given expression are 10+10√2 and 10-10√2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a quadratic expression.

s²-20s-100

We have to find factors of given expression.

We use quadratic formula to find factors.

x = (-b±√b²-4ac) / 2a

From given expression, a = 1 , b = -20 and c = -100

Putting values in above formula, we have

x = (-(-20)±√(-20)²-4(1)(-100) ) / 2(1)

x = (20±√400+400 ) / 2

x = (20±√800) /  2

x = (20± √400×2) / 2

x = (20±20√2) / 2

x = 10±10√2

Hence, the factors of given expression are 10+10√2 and 10-10√2.
