AC² + BC² = AB² AD² + CD² = AC²
BC² = AB² - AC² BC² + CD² = AC² (AD=BC is given)
BC² = AC² - CD²
AB² - AC² = AC² - CD² (both sides were = to BC²)
AB² + CD² = 2AC²
(3)² + (√2)² = 2AC² (AB=3 and CD=√2 were given)
9 + 2 = 2AC²
11 = 2AC²
= AC²
= AC
= AC
Answer:
14x - 8 = 22 + 20x
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "the number" be represented by x
Take each part of the statement and translate into algebraic form
"14 times a number" 14x
"decreased By eight" -8
"is" =
"22 Increased by" 22 +
"20 times The same number" 20x
Put the equation together. Solve for x by isolating.
(
14x - 8 = 22 + 20x
14x - 8 - 20x = 22 + 20x - 20x Subtract 20x from both sides
-6x - 8 = 22
-6x - 8 + 8 = 22 + 8 Add 8 to both sides
-6x = 30
-6x ÷ -6 = 30 ÷ -6 Divide both sides by -6
x = -5
Answer: 0.0791
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The probability that a baseball player will get a hit in any one at bat is 0.250.
Let x be the first hit.
According to the geometric probability , the probability that x (th) trial is the first success =
, where p is the probability of getting success in each trial.
As per given p= 0.250
Then, the probability that he will get his first hit on his 5th at bat will be :

Hence, the probability that he will get his first hit on his 5th at bat is 0.0791 .

Step-by-step explanation:
In 10 minutes, Tom eats (5 cookies/minute)×(10 minutes) = 50 cookies.
Andy must eat the remaining cookies:
... 80 cookies - 50 cookies = 30 cookies.
_____
The answer to the question asked is
Andy must eat 30 cookies.
The answer to the question not asked is
Andy eats those cookies at the rate
... (30 cookies)/(10 minutes) = 3 cookies/minute
