Answer:

5² + 12² = 13²

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the 3 sides of a right angled triangle. These are the opposite side, hypotenuse side and the adjacent side.

The theorem states that the sum of the squares of the lengths of the opposite side and the adjacent side is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse such that mathematically,

a² + b² = c²

where a and b are the lengths of the opposite and adjacent side and c is the length of the hypotenuse

Considering the numbers 5, 12 and 13,

5² + 12² = 25 + 144

= 169

= 13²

Hence

5² + 12² = 13²

The numbers 5, 12 and 13 can be used to correctly identify the sides of a right triangle, and this can be proven by using the Pythagorean Theorem.  

5² + 12² = 13²
25 + 144 = 169
169 = 169

5 and 12 are the legs, and 13 is the hypotenuse. Hopefully this is what the question is asking. :)

When we use a confidence interval to reach a conclusion about the population mean, we are applying a type of reasoning or logic
andriy [413]

Answer:

<em>Statistical inference</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval is used to give a range of values for a target population while applying the law of probability. Inferential statistics makes use of data obtained from a given population to predict and make a conclusion on a study.

Statistical inference is the process of applying the tools for inferential statistics to analyze data gotten from a given fraction of the population. This process is based on probability and random sampling.

<em>When a confidence interval is used to conclude a population study, it is certainly based on probability. Therefore the correct option is statistical inference. </em>

1- find the first term= ?, 90, 540, 3240
Luda [366]

Answer:

1. 15

2. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The two sequence are geometric progression GP, because they follow a constant multiple (common ratio)

The nth term of a GP is;

Tn = ar^(n-1)

Where;

a = first term

r = common ratio

For the first sequence;

The common ratio r is

r = T3/T2 = 540/90 = 6

r = 6

T2 = ar^(2-1) = ar

T2 = 90 = ar

Substituting the values of r;

90 = a × 6

a = 90/6

a = 15

First term = 15

2. The sam method applies here.

Common ratio r = T3/T2 = 128/32 = 4

r = 4

T2 = ar^(2-1) = ar

T2 = 32 = ar

Substituting the values of r;

32 = a × 4

a = 32/4

a = 8

First term = 8

In the figure, the slope of mid-segment DE is -0.4. The slope of segment AC is . i need help fast plz
AlexFokin [52]
It will have the same value. The slope of the mid-segment of DE is just equal to the slope of the segment of AC. This is because of the mid-segment theorem stating that both slopes of a triangle have same value. So the answer is -0.4 for both segments.

What substitution should be used to rewrite 6(x + 5)2 + 5(x + 5) – 4 = 0 as a quadratic equation? u = (x + 5) u = (x – 5) u = (x
Pachacha [2.7K]
6(x+5)² + 5(x+5)-4 = 0

(x+5)(x+5) = x(x+5)+5(x+5) = x² + 5x + 5x + 25 = x² + 10x + 25

6(x²+10x+25) + 5(x+5) - 4 = 0
6x² + 60x + 150 + 5x + 25 - 4 = 0
6x² + 60x + 5x + 150 + 25 - 4 = 0
6x² + 65x + 171 = 0

<span>u = (x + 5)</span>

Sherri saves nickels and dimes in a coin purse for her daughter. The total value of the coins in the purse is $0.95. The number
forsale [732]
I’m guessing that this is for systems of equations?
n - nickels
d - dimes

These are the equations you start off with.
n = 5d-2
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05n

Substitute the top equation for n into the variable n in the bottom equation.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05(5d-2)

Solve for d.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.25d-0.10
1.05 = 0.35d
3 = d

Substitute d into the top equation and solve for n.
n = 5(3)-2
n = 15-3
n = 12

There are 3 dimes and 12 nickels in the coin purse! Hope this helped <3
