An isosceles triangle has two congruent side lengths of 20 inches.
The base of the triangle has a length of 32 inches. What is the height of the
triangle?
12 inches
10 inches
15 inches

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

h = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

The legs are 32/2 = 16 and the height h

The hypotenuse is 20

16^2 + h^2 = 20^2

256 + h^2 = 400

h^2 = 400-256

h^2 = 144

Taking the square root of each side

h = sqrt(144)

h =12

is the probability of this question

Answer:

25%

If xy>0, then the points of P(x,y) lies...

Answers

Answer:

In Quadrant I or III

Step-by-step explanation:

We know if the sign was not showing closed inequality facing other way

xy < 0 would be in the 2nd or 4th quadrant.

If xy = 0  then either xy or both are on the x or y axis

But if xy>0 then they are in quadrant I or III

If xy>0, then the points of P(x,y) lies in Quadrant I and III

Quadrants on the Cartesian plane

According to the given condition;

xy > 0

This means that the product of x and y is a positive number.

Hence, either both x and y-coordinates are positive or are both negative

Hence, only points in the Quadrant I have positive x and y coordinates Or Quadrant III in which case all x and y values are negative.

Each point where vertical cables are attached to the spanning cable of a bridge has forces pulling in three directions. This situation can be modeled in terms of the unknown forces with the matrix equation below Solve this equation for F and round answers to three decimal points​

Answers

Answer:

f1: 0.440, f2: 0.931, f3: 1.519

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the system of equations we need to use the inverse of matrix A, as follows:

A x F = C

A^-1 x A x F = A^-1 x C

I x F = A^-1 x C

where I is the identity matrix.

The inverse of A is:

          1.450 -0.392 -0.090

A^-1 = -0.074 -0.022 0.1536

         -0.406 0.7122 -0.060

(computed with Excel)

The multiplication between the inverse of A and C gives:

                0.440

A^-1 x C = 0.931

B)(-1,9)
C)(6,-5)

Answers

Answer:

(6, -5)  (Answer C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 2.  We get the following equivalent system:

4x + 2y = 14

 x - 2y  = 16

------------------

  5x = 30, or x = 6.

Substituting 6 for x in the second equation, we get

6 - 2y = 16, or

  -  2y = 10, so that y = -5

a matinee ticket costs $6 per adult and $1 per child.

Answers

Answer:

The number of adults who saw a movie that day is 7

and

the pair of equations that can be solved to find the numbers is

6x+y = 70

x + y = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total no. of adults who saw the move be x

Let the total no. of child who saw the move be y

Given that the total number of adults (a) and children (c) who saw a movie was 35

thus. x + y = 35

cost of ticket for 1 adult = $6

cost of ticket for 1*x  adult = $6*x = $6x

cost of ticket for x  adult = $6x

cost of ticket for 1 child = $1

cost of ticket for 1*y  child = $1*y = $y

cost of ticket for y  child =  $y

Total cost for  x adult and y child = $(6x+y)   _______(2)

Given that he total money collected was $70

Thus, we have two equations

6x+y = 70  -------(1)

x + y = 35

y = 35 - x  (using this value of y in equation 1 we have)

6x + 35 - x = 70

=> 5x = 70 -35 = 35

=> x = 35/5 = 7

The number of adults who saw a movie that day is 7

and

the pair of equations that can be solved to find the numbers is

6x+y = 70

x + y = 35

Answer:There are 96 apples in the 12th bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you add the number of apples in the 11 bags.

6+28+16+27+10=87

If the mean number of apples in the 12 bags were 8, the total number of apples are 96.  

Using this info, we subtract 87 from 96 to 9.

Hence, there are 9 apples in the 12th bag.

Find the ninth term of the geometric sequence a4= -135,r=-3

Answers

Answer:

The nth term of the geometric sequence is is 32805

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by

[tex]$ a_n = a_1 \cdot r^{n - 1} $[/tex]

Where [tex]a_1\\[/tex] is the first term and [tex]r[/tex] is the common ratio

We are given the fourth term of this sequence

[tex]a_4 = -135[/tex]

The common ratio is

[tex]r = -3[/tex]

Once we find the 1st term then we can find any other term.

[tex]a_4 = a_1 \cdot r^{4 - 1} \\\\a_4 = a_1 \cdot r^{3} \\\\-135 = a_1 \cdot (-3)^{3} \\\\-135 = a_1 \cdot (-27) \\\\a_1 = \frac{-135}{-27} \\\\a_1 = 5[/tex]

So the ninth term of this geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n = a_1 \cdot r^{n - 1} \\\\a_9 = a_1 \cdot r^{9 - 1} \\\\a_9 = a_1 \cdot r^{8} \\\\a_9 = 5 \cdot (-3)^{8} \\\\a_9 = 5 \cdot (6561) \\\\a_9 = 32805[/tex]

Therefore, the nth term of the geometric sequence is is 32805
