Answer:

Given: △ABC, m∠B=90° AB=12, BC=16, BK ⊥ AC . Find: AC and BK.

Given: △ABC, m∠B=90°

Find: AC and BK.

Short leg 90 degrees Long leg Hypotenuse

AB=12 90 BC=16 AC= ?

AK = ? 90 BK = ? AB=12

AC = SQRT (AB*AB + BC*BC) = 20 [right triangle; Pythagorean Theorem]

Similar triangles:[Note: In diagram, share two angles. Therefore share three angles]

BK / 16 = AB / AC

BK / 16 = 12 / 20

BK = (3/5)16

BK = 48/5

another answer let see this

AB^2+BC^2=AC^2

12^2+16^2=AC^2

144+256=AC^2

400=AC^2

20=AC

# be careful#

Answer: BK = 9.6

Step-by-step explanation: The equation of the line AC is y = (-3/4)x + 12. The line perpendicular to AC and passing through point B is y = (4/3)x. The point of intersection between BK amd AC is (144/25, 192/25). Those are the side lengths. Use Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse.

The new car you bought this year cost $42500. The value of the car
Valentin [98]

Answer:

10%  multiplied by 6 = 60%

60% of 42500 is 25500

42500-25500= 17000

i multiplied 10% by 6 because 2027 is 6 years away and i subtracted 42500 by 25500 because it says it "decreased"

An average computer mouse inspector can inspect 50 mice per hour. The 48 computer mice inspectors at a particular factory can on
Ronch [10]

Answer:  C. Yes, because -2.77 falls in the critical region .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \mu be the population mean .

As per given , we have

H_0:\mu=50\\\\ H_a: \mu

Since the alternative hypothesis is left-tailed and population standard deviation is not given , so we need to perform a left-tailed t-test.

Test statistic : t=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

Also, it is given that ,

n= 48

\overline{x}=46

s= 10

t=\dfrac{46-50}{\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{48}}}=\dfrac{-4}{\dfrac{10}{6.93}}\\\\=\dfrac{-4}{1.443}\approx-2.77

Degree of freedom = df = n-1= 47

Using t-distribution , we have

Critical value =t_{\alpha,df}=t_{0.025,47}=2.0117

Since, the absolute t-value (|-2.77|=2.77) is greater than the critical value.

So , we reject the null hypothesis.

i.e. -2.77 falls in the critical region.

[Critical region is the region of values that associates with the rejection of the null hypothesis at a given probability level.]

Conclusion : We have sufficient evidence to support the claim that these inspectors are slower than average.

Hence, the correct answer is C. Yes, because -2.77 falls in the critical region

larisa86 [58]
Well if he puts 6 on each of the 5 notebooks, you'd do 5*6 and get 30. If 10 are on each sheet you'd do 30/10 & end up with 3 sheets of stickers :)
