The roof of a house seen from the front is an isosceles triangle \Delta ABC ΔABC with base 14.5 m and sides of length 8.5 m. Fin
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

4.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw the height of the triangle (perpendicular line from point A to line BC).  Since ABC is an isosceles triangle, the height is a perpendicular bisector, so it splits the triangle into two congruent right triangles.

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the height.

c² = a² + b²

(8.5 m)² = (14.5/2 m)² + h²

h ≈ 4.4 m

According to a study in a medical journal, 202 of a sample of 5,990 middle-aged men had developed diabetes. It also found that m
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

0.0588 = 5.88% probability that a middle-aged man with diabetes is very active

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Has diabetes.

Event B: Is very active.

Probability of having diabetes:

To find this probability, we take in consideration that:

It also found that men who were very active (burning about 3,500 calories daily) were a fourth as likely to develop diabetes compared with men who were sedentary. Assume that one-fifth of all middle-aged men are very active, and the rest are classified as sedentary.

So the probability of developing diabetes is:

x of 4/5 = x of 0.8(not active)

x/4 = 0.25x of 1/5 = 0.2(very active). So

P(A) = 0.8x + 0.25*0.2x = 0.85x

Probability of developing diabetes while being very active:

0.25x of 0.2. So

P(A \cap B) = 0.25x*0.2 = 0.05x

What is the probability that a middle-aged man with diabetes is very active?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.05x}{0.85x} = \frac{0.05}{0.85} = 0.0588

0.0588 = 5.88% probability that a middle-aged man with diabetes is very active
