The hypotenuse of a right triangle is two more than the length of one of its legs. Find the side lengths of the right triangle given the perimeter= 60 and it's area= 120

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  10 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that some of the Pythagorean triples that appear in math problems are (3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17).

These have (perimeter, area) values of (12, 6), (30, 30), (56, 84), (40, 60).

For some scale factor n, we want (p·n, a·n²) = (60, 120). Of the triangles listed, we see that the (5, 12, 13) triangle scaled by n=2 will satisfy the problem requirements. (30·2, 30·2²) = (60, 120)

The side lengths are 10 and 24.

__

Check

For the side lengths we found, the perimeter is 10+24+26 = 60; the area is 1/2(10)(24) = 120. The hypotenuse is 2×13 = 26 = 24+2.

__

In the attached, one side is x, the other is y. The hypotenuse is (x+2). The square root equation comes from ...

  x² +y² = (x+2)²   ⇒   y² = (x² +4x +4) -x²   ⇒   y² = 4x +4 = 4(x +1)

_____

Additional comment

The graph shows the solution of the various constraints. At least, the combination of constraints will give a quadratic equation in x. They can be combined in a way that gives a cubic equation in x. Either way, we prefer the graphical or "guess and check" approach (above) as being easier to do.

Using the third equation in the attachment to write an expression for y, we have ...

  y = 58 -2x

Substituting that into the second equation gives ...

  (x(58 -2x)/2 = 120

  29x -x² = 120

  x² -29x +120 = 0

  (x -5)(x -24) = 0 . . . . x = 5 or 24.

The root x=5 is a legitimate solution to the pair of equations we chose to solve. The line y=58-2x intersects the hyperbola xy/2 = 120 in two places. However, (x, y) = (5, 48) does not satisfy the hypotenuse requirement that x+2 > y.

In a computer tape library there are two racks with 50 tapes per rack. On Monday there are 35 tapes in use, on Tuesday 60, and on Wednesday 25. What fraction on the average is in use for the 3 days

Answers

Based on the number of tapes used on those days and the number of tapes in the rack, the fraction on the average used was 2/5

The average tapes used in those 3 days was:

= (35 + 60 + 25) / 3

= 120 / 3

= 40 tapes

The total number of tapes that can be used are:

= 50 + 50 per rack

= 100 tapes

The fraction of the average is:

= 40 / 100

In the lowest term this is:

= 2 / 5

In conclusion, the fraction is 2/5

a forrest covers an area of 2400 km^2. if each year the area decreases by 8.5%, what will the area be after 14 years? round answer to nearest square kilometer. (please explain how you get the answer so i can do future questions myself! thank you :) )

Answers

Answer:

1581.62810745 square km

Step-by-step explanation:

P = Initial Area = 2500 square km.

r = rate of decreasing = 8.75%

n = number of years = 5 years

A = 2500 ( 1 - 8.75/100)^5

A = 2500 {(100–8.75)/100}^5

A = 2500 (91.25/100)^5

A = 2500 (0.9125)^5

A = 2500 * 0.63265124298

A = 1581.62810745

A researcher testing a hypothesis that the population mean is 25 takes a sample of size 36 and obtains a sample mean of 23 with an estimated standard error of 4. What is the observed value of the test statistic

Answers

Answer:

The test statistic is 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Best way to understand this is to think of a sample and it's purpose;

You take a sample to get information that can be extrapolated to apply to the whole population;

So, for example, you have a factory making light bulbs, and you want to find out how long they last;

You would take a number of light bulbs from the production line, i.e. a sample, and test these;

It would be impossible to test every light bulb as this would take too long and there would be none left unused to sell, i.e. it would not be feasible or viable to do;

You would then find a mean of these times from the sample, and then extrapolate and assume it to be the duration of any light bulb coming off the production line;

The sample is the handful of light bulbs chosen to test;

The test statistic refers to the quantity or value, calculated from the sample data, this would be the mean light bulb duration in the light bulbs example;

Similar and yet different to a test statistic, a population parameter refers to a quantity or value calculated from population data;

A population refers to all members of a particular group of objects/items, so in the example, it would be all the light bulbs produced;

The population parameter would refer to the mean calculated based on data from the population (i.e. all the light bulbs produced);

Realistically, it is impossible to determine a population since it would be unviable in the practically all cases, as we can see in the example;

This value is almost always theoretical and would be assumed from a test statistic in any real scenario.

The car arrives from city A to city B in 3 hours. How many hours will it take to go the same way if you increase the speed by 20%?

Answers

Given :-

The car arrives from city A to city B in 3 hours.Speed is increased by 20% .

To find :-

The new time taken .

Solution :-

Let us assume the distance between A and B be x and the initial speed by y . After 20% increase in the speed , new speed will be ,

[tex]\blue{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] Speed = 120y/100

[tex]\blue{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] Speed = 6/5y

• According to the Question ,

[tex]\red{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] Distance = Speed * Time

[tex]\blue{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] x = y * 3 hrs

[tex]\red{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] x = 3y

And ,

[tex]\blue{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] t = Distance/Speed

[tex]\red{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] t = x ÷ (6y/5)

[tex]\blue{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] t = 5x/6y

[tex]\red{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] t = 5 (3y)/6y

[tex]\blue{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] t = 5/2 hrs

[tex]\red{\dashrightarrow} [/tex] t = 2.5 hrs

Hence now it will take 2.5 hrs to go from A to B .

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the distance between A and B is 3 miles (3, because I see a need to divide the distance by 3 hours to determine the car's speed).  The actual distance makes no difference in the answer, since it is asking for a relative speed change (20%).

We find the speed to be 3 miles/3 hours, or 1 mph.  A 20% increase in speed would be (1.20)(1) = 1.20 mph.

We can find the time for a 1.2 mph car to go 3 miles by:

(3 miles)/(1.2 mph) = 2.5 hours

=====

[Note that if we assumed a different distance, say 6 miles, we'd get the same result:

6 miles/3 hours = 2 mph

1.2*2 = 2.4 mph

New time = 6/2.4 = 2.5 hours; same as before]
