The hypotenuse of a right triangle is three times the length of one of its legs. The length of the other leg is four feet. Find the lengths of the three sides of the triangle. For non-integer answer(s), round your answer(s) to the nearest tenth.​

Answers

Answer 1

Hello!

It is given information that this triangle is a right triangle, meaning that the Pythagorean Theorem can apply here.

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

We can set the length of a leg as an unknown variable [tex]x[/tex].

[tex]x^2+4^2=(3x)^2[/tex]

Remember that it is the whole [tex]3x[/tex] term being squared, meaning that it'll simplify to [tex]9x^2[/tex], not [tex]3x^2[/tex].

[tex]x^2+16=9x^2[/tex]

[tex]8x^2=16[/tex]

[tex]x^2=2[/tex]

[tex]x=\sqrt{2}[/tex]

This means we can plug back in to find the sides.

The hypotenuse would be [tex]3\sqrt{2}[/tex], or 4.2.

And the legs would be 1.4 and 4, respectively.

Hope this helps!

In a nationally representative sample of 1,668 adult Americans, 930 indicated that they had checked their credit score within the last 12 months. Suppose of the 930 people that had checked their credit report within the last 12 months, 37% had done so as part of their regular financial planning. Does this provide convincing evidence that more than one-third of adult Americans who have checked their credit scores within the past 12 months did so as part of regular financial planning

Answers

Solution :

The one sample proportion summary hypothesis test is :

p : proportion of successes

[tex]$H_0: p = 0.33 $[/tex]

[tex]$H_a : p > 0.33$[/tex]

The hypothesis test result by using the statistical software is :

Total = 930

Sample proportion = 0.37

Standard error = 0.0157

Z-stat = 1.697

P- value = 0.0448

Therefore, the hypothesis   [tex]$H_0:p = \frac{1}{3} \text{ versus}\ H_a: p > \frac{1}{3}$[/tex]   is correct.

  And conclusion : Fail to reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex]. As we do not have any convincing evidence that more than one-third of adult Americans who have checked their credit scores within the past 12 months did so as part of regular financial planning.

The circumference of the ball is 9.4 inches. What is the approximate surface area and volume of the ball? Round your answers to the nearest unit.
The surface area of the ball is approximately
square inches
The volume of the ball is approximately
cubic Inches

Answers

Answer:

i. The surface area of the ball is approximately 28.0 square inches.

ii. The volume of the ball is approximately 14.0 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ball has the shape of a sphere, so that;

C = 2[tex]\pi[/tex]r

9.4 = 2 x [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x r

65.8 = 44r

r = [tex]\frac{65.8}{44}[/tex]

r = 1.50 inches

The radius of the ball is 1.50 inches.

i. Surface area of a sphere = 4[tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{2}[/tex]

So that,

surface area of the ball = 4 x [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x [tex](1.5)^{2}[/tex]

                                             = 28.2857

The surface area of the ball is approximately 28.0 square inches.

ii. Volume of the ball = Volume of a sphere = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex][tex]\pi[/tex][tex]r^{3}[/tex]

Volume of the ball =  [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x [tex](1.5)^{3}[/tex]

                               = 14.1429

The volume of the ball is approximately 14.0 cubic inches.

Microsoft wants to administer a satisfaction survey to its current customers. Using their customer​ database, the company randomly selects 50 customers and asks them about their level of satisfaction with the company. What type of sampling is​ used? A. Systematic B. Convenience C. Simple random D. Cluster E. Stratified

Answers

Answer:

Simple random

Step-by-step explanation:

There are various methods which may be employed when we intend to select a certain few from a larger group of subjects. The simple random sampling may be described as the most basic form of random sampling whereby a smaller group or subset is chosen from the larger population entirely by chance (each subject or member of the population has equal chances of being selected). A simple random sampling, the larger group isn't partitioned or subdivided prior to selection, the subsets are just selected as they are. In the scenario above, the database is the population and the 50 samples are selected directly from the database without splitting or prior partioning of the population data.

Which of the following is a true statement?

4/8< 8/24
4/8<9/16
4/16>3/8

Answers

We'll need to convert all the fractions to common denominators.

1/3 = 8/24

3/8= 9/24

4/8 = 12/24

8/24 stays the same.

4/8 = 8/16

9/16 stays the same.

4/16 stays the same.

3/8 = 6/16

Now we compare.

8/24 > 9/24 X

12/24 < 8/24 X

8/16 < 9/16 √

4/16 > 6/16

So the answer is C) 4/8<9/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding √2 and dividing by 2 makes the equation ...

  cos(θ) = (√2)/2

The first-quadrant solution is ...

  θ = arccos((√2)/2) = π/4

The angle in the 4th quadrant with the same reference angle will have the same cosine value.

  θ = 2π -π/4 = 7π/4

The two solutions are θ = π/4, 7π/4.

Max used a base ten blocks to solve the division problem 9.15 divided by 3.
Which set of blocks shows the quotient for 9.15 divided by3?

C. 0 ones, 3 tenths, hundredths
D 3 ones, 0 tenths, 5 hundredths

Answers

Answer:

D 3 ones, 0 tenths, 5 hundredths

Step-by-step explanation:

9.15 divided by 3.

915/3 = 305

Then, moving the decimal point two units to the left, we have 3.05.

The last number before the decimal point is called ones, which means that we have 3 ones.

The first number after the decimal point is called tenths, which means that we have 0 tenths.

The second number after the decimal point is called hundredths, which means that we have 5 hundredths.

Which NCAA college basketball conference has the higher probability of having a team play in a college basketball's national championship game? Over the last 20 years, the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) ranks first by having a team in the championship game 10 times. The Southeastern Conference (SEC) ranks second by having a team in the championship game 8 times. However, both conferences have had teams in the championship game only one time, when Arkansas (SEC) beat Duke (ACC) 76–70 in 1994 (NCAA website, April 2009). Use these data to estimate the following probabilities.

a. What is the probability the ACC will have a team in the championship game?
b. What is the probability the SEC will have team in the championship game?
c. What is the probability the ACC and SEC will both have teams in the championship game?
d. What is the probability at least one team from these two conferences will be in the championship game? That is, what is the probability a team from the ACC or SEC will play in the championship game?
e. What is the probability that the championship game will not a have team from one of these two conferences?

Answers

Answer:

A)P(ACC has a team in the championship game) = 0.5

B)P(SEC has a team in the championship game) = 0.4

C)P(both ACC & SEC having teams in the championship games) = 0.05

D)P(ACC or SEC) = 0.85

E)P(not ACC or SEC) = 0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that in the last 20 years, ACC has had a team in the championship game for 10 times.

Thus;

P(ACC has a team in the championship game) = 10/20 = 0.5

B) SEC has a team in the championship game 8 times in the last 20 years;

Thus;

P(SEC has a team in the championship game) = 8/20 = 0.4

C) since both ACC and SEC have had teams in the championship game for the past 20 years, then;

P(both ACC & SEC having teams in the championship games) = 1/20 = 0.05

D) Addition rule of probability is that;

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A & B)

Applying it to this question, we have;

P(ACC or SEC) = P(ACC) + P(SEC) - P(ACC & SEC)

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

P(ACC or SEC) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.05

P(ACC or SEC) = 0.85

E) from complement rule, we can find the probability that the championship game will not a have team from one of these two conferences.

Thus;

P(ACC not SEC) = 1 - P(ACC or SEC)

P(ACC not SEC) = 1 - 0.85

P(ACC not SEC) = 0.15
