Camille knew that a triangle had one side with a length of 16 inches and another side with a length of 20 inches. She did not kn

ow the length of the third side, but she did know that the perimeter was five times the length of the unknown side. How long is the unknown side? Please I really need help with this question!!

The unknown side is 9. Because 9 x 5= 45, 45 being the perimeter, that is 5 times the unknown side. And 45 is the sum of 9, 16, and 20.

The hypotenuse of a 45 -45° -90° triangle measures 18 cm. What is the length of one leg of the triangle?
sdas [7]
<h2>Steps</h2>

So the 45-45-90 triangle is considered to be a "special triangle" and has a rule with it. If the legs are x, then the hypotenuse is x√2. Since we know that the hypotenuse is 18, this means we can set up our equation as such:

x\sqrt{2} =18

From here we can solve for x. Firstly, divide both sides by √2.

x=\frac{18}{\sqrt{2}}

Next, we want to simplify this expression and to do that we first have to rationalize the denominator. With the right side, multiply the numerator and denominator by √2:

\frac{18}{\sqrt{2}}*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{18\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\\\x=\frac{18\sqrt{2}}{2}

Next, divide:

x=9\sqrt{2}

<h2>Answer</h2>

<u>In short, the length of one leg of the triangle is 9√2 cm.</u>

the x-values in the table for f(x) were multiplied by -1 to create the table for g(x) what isbthe relationship between the graph
denpristay [2]

Answer: g(x) is the image of f(x)


Step-by-step explanation:

multiplying the x value by -1 means you reflect that point across y-axis, therefore, g(x) is the reflection of f(x) across y-axis.

In a large population, 61 % of the people have been vaccinated. if 4 people are randomly selected, what is the probability that
muminat
In a large population, 61% of the people are vaccinated, meaning there are 39% who are not. The problem asks for the probability that out of the 4 randomly selected people, at least one of them has been vaccinated. Therefore, we need to add all the possibilities that there could be one, two, three or four randomly selected persons who were vaccinated.

For only one person, we use P(1), same reasoning should hold for other subscripts.

P(1) = (61/100)(39/100)(39/100)(39/100) = 0.03618459
P(2) = (61/100)(61/100)(39/100)(39/100) = 0.05659641
P(3) = (61/100)(61/100)(61/100)(39/100) = 0.08852259
P(4) = (61/100)(61/100)(61/100)(61/100) = 0.13845841

Adding these probabilities, we have 0.319761. Therefore the probability of at least one person has been vaccinated out of 4 persons randomly selected is 0.32 or 32%, rounded off to the nearest hundredths.

Find a line that lies entirely in the set defined by the equation x2 + y2 − z2 = 1.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

x=1\,,\,y=t\,,\,z=t

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is a one-dimensional figure that has no thickness and extends infinitely in both directions.

A line segment is a line that has two end-points and a ray is a line that has one end-point.

Given equation is x^2+y^2-z^2=1

To find : a line that lies entirely in the set defined by the given equation.

Solution:

Take x=1\,,\,y=t\,,\,z=t

Check:

L.H.S=1^2+t^2-t^2=1+0=1=R.H.S

Therefore, x=1\,,\,y=t\,,\,z=t satisfy the given equation.

Leokris [45]
To answer this question, you need to makes the unit of the smartphone screen same. In this case, phone A is using decimal and phone B is using a fraction. You can use which was easier.
Let's try to use decimal. Then you need to convert phone B fraction width into decimal width. The calculation would be: 5cm + 1/3cm= 5 cm + 0.333cm= 5.333cm
From here it clear that phone B has a wider screen than phone A.
