The length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 6 inches more than twice the length of the shorter leg. The length of the hypotenuse is 9 inches more than twice the length of the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the triangle.​

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  15 in, 36 in, 39 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem tells us that for short side x, the relation is ...

  (2x +9)² = (2x +6)² +x²

  4x² +36x +81 = 4x² +24x +36 +x²

  x² -12x -45 = 0 . . . . . subtract the left-side expression

  (x -15)(x +3) = 0 . . . . factor

  x = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . the positive value of x that makes a factor zero

The side lengths of the triangle are 15 inches, 36 inches, and 39 inches.

What is the limit as it is approaching -1 from the right, what is the limit?

Answers

Answer:

The limit is 0, and the answer is given by option E.

Step-by-step explanation:

Limit to the right:

The limit of a function approacing a value of x to the right is given by the value of the function quite close to the point, looking to the right.

In this question:

Approacing by the right(x quite close, but more than -1, that is, -0.9999...), y tends to 0, so the limit is 0, and the answer is given by option E.


Q3a) How many lengths of string, each 53 cm
long can be cut from a ball containing 25
meters? (2 mks)

b) What length of string, in millimeters
remains? (2 mks)

Answers

Part (a)

1 meter = 100 cm

25 meters = 2500 cm .... multiply both sides by 25

Divide the 2500 cm over the 53 cm to get 2500/53 = 47.1698

Ignore the stuff after the decimal point. This means we can cut exactly 47 smaller bits of string, each 53 cm long

Answer: 47

====================================================

Part (b)

We found that we can cut exactly 47 smaller bits of string, each 53 cm long. That takes up 47*53 = 2491 cm overall

The leftovers would be 2500 - 2491 = 9 cm which isn't longer than 53 cm

Convert 9 cm to mm by multiplying by 10 (because 1 cm = 10 mm).

9 cm = 90 mm

Answer: 90 mm

Due to the heavy rains, all pallets of blocks have become wet and the weight of each block has altered. It is desired to estimate the average weight of the blocks thus wet. For this, a sample of 15 blocks is selected and the following weights are recorded in kilograms: 45.8, 43.9, 46.2, 48.5, 47.2, 45.8, 49.1, 43.9, 47.6, 42.8, 46.5, 44.9, 46.8, 45.8 and 44.6; Estimate µ, the average weight of all pallets of blocks, and determine a bound for the estimation error.

Answers

Answer:

To find the estimated value we add all of them together then divide it by the amount of them

45.8+43.9+46.2+48.5+47.2+45.8+49.1+43.9+47.6+42.8+46.5+44.9+46.8+45.8 +44.6=689.4

now we divide it by 15 since there is 15 blocks so

689.4 divided by 15=45.96

so the average weight is 45.96

Match each expression with the correct description.

Which of the quadratic functions has the narrowest graph?

y = 2x^2
y = –x^2
y = 1/8x^2
y = 1/6x^2

Answers

A quadratic function's graph being wide or narrow is determined or depended on a-term:

[tex] \large{y = a {x}^{2} + bx + c}[/tex]

If |a| has a lot of value, for example a = 2 or a = 100. The graph will get narrower if increasing the value of |a|. On the other hand, If |a| has small value, for example a = 1/2 or a = 1/10000. The graph would be wide.

Also it does not matter if a-term is negative or not since a-term being positive or negative determines if a parabola is upward or downward. Only |a| determines how narrow/wide the graph is.

From the question, it is clear that the parabola y = 2x^2 is the narrowest graph since it has the highest |a| value out of all choices.

Answer

y = 2x^2

After calculations we find that all the measures of central tendency exist for this data. The mean , median and mode can be easily calculated .

The mean is 346.8

The mode is 281

The median is 316

Suppose that the measurement 806 (the largest measurement in the data set) were replaced by 1169.  The mean would be affected by the change.

The mean is 361.32

The mode is 281

The median is 316

cement company earns a profit of ₹ 10 per bag of white cement and a loss of ₹ 5 per
bag of grey cement. The company sells 325 bags of white cement and 500 bags of
grey cement. What is its profit or loss?

Answers

Answer:

There was a profit of ₹750.

Step-by-step explanation:

325 bags of white cement

Profit of 10 for each bag of white cement. So

[tex]P = 325*10 = 3250[/tex]

500 bags of grey cement.

Loss of 5 for each bag of grey cement. So

[tex]L = 5*500 = 2500[/tex]

What is its profit or loss?

3250 - 2500 = 750

Positive, so profit. There was a profit of ₹750.

MP of an article is $1400. Find the SP of that article in cents if the shopkeeper adds 13% VAT after allowing 45% discount. (100 cents =$1)​

Answers

Answer:

87,010 cents is the SP.

Step-by-step explanation:

MP = $1400

VAT = 13%

Discount = 45%

so,

discount amount = 45% of MP

= 45% of $1400

= 45/100 * $1400

= 9/20 * $1400

= 9* $70

= $630

so,

MP - discount amount

= $1400 - $630

= $770(SP)

so,

VAT amount = 13% of SP

= 13% of $770

= 13/100 * $770

= $100.1

so,

SP + VAT

= $770 + $100.1

= $870.1

so,

$1 = 100 cents

$870.1 = 100*870.1

= 87,010 cents

Answers

Answer:

x = 21, y = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle above (7x - 13) is (2x + 4 ) ← alternate angle

(7x - 13) and (2x + 4) are adjacent angles and sum to 180° , then

7x - 13 + 2x + 4 = 180

9x - 9 = 180 ( add 9 to both sides )

9x = 189 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 21

Then

2x + 4 = 2(21) + 4 = 42 + 4 = 46

(2x + 4) and (3y + 14) are adjacent angles and sum to 180° , so

46 + 3y + 14 = 180

60 + 3y = 180 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

3y = 120 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 40
