Answer:

16.58 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

a² + b² = c²

Think of this as a right triangle

The hypotenuse is 30, and one of the legs is 25

To find the other leg, subtract the square of the hypotenuse by the square of the given leg

30² - 25² = leg

900 - 625 = 275

Square root the answer to find the length of the missing leg

√275 = 16.583123951777

The leg is 16.58 ft.

What is the equation of the circle whose center and radius are given.
muminat
Hello!

The equation for a circle is

(x - h)^{2}  + ( y - k)^{2} =  r^{2}

(h,k) is the center
r is the radius

Put in the values you know

(x - 7)^{2} + ( y + 3)^{2} = 7^{2}

Simplify

(x - 7)^{2} + ( y + 3)^{2} = 49

The equation is (x - 7)^{2} + ( y + 3)^{2} = 49

Hope this helps!

The length of a rectangle is represented by the function L(x) = 5x. The width of that same rectangle is represented by the funct
Mazyrski [523]

Remember that the area of a rectangle is the length of the rectangle multiplied by the width of the rectangle.


In this case, we could say (where A(x) is the area of the rectangle):

A(x) = L(x) \cdot W(x)


Substituting the values the problem gave us for L(x) and W(x), we can find the formula for A in terms of x, which is:

A(x) = (5x) \cdot (2x^2 - 4x + 13) = (10x^3 - 20x^2 + 65x)


The formula for the area of the rectangle would be A(x) = 10x³ - 20x² + 65x.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a  laptop company claims up to 11.0 hours of wireless web usage for its newest laptop battery life. However, reviews on this laptop shows many complaints about low battery life. A survey on battery life reported by customers shows that it follows a normal distribution with mean 10.5 hours and standard deviation 27 minutes.

convert into same units into hours.

X is N(10.5, 0.45)

a)  the probability that the battery life is at least 11.0 hours

P(X\geq 11)\\\\=1-0.8667\\=0.1333

(b)  the probability that the battery life is less than 10.0 hours

=P(X

(c)  the time of use that is exceeded with probability 0.97

=97th percentile

= 11.844

d)  The time of use that is exceeded with probability 0.9 is

is 90th percentile = 10.885
