The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 13ft long. The longer leg is 7ft longer than the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the triangle.

Answers

Answer:

The side lengths are 5, 12, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the side lengths we know before we have solved the problem.

a= x   b= x+7   c= 13

If we put this into the Pythagorean theorem, we get

[tex]13^{2} = x^{2} +(x+7)^{2}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]169 = 2x^2+14x+49\\[/tex]

Subtract 169 from both sides

[tex]0 =2x^2+14x-120[/tex]

Solve using the quadratic formula

a= 2   b= 14   c= -120

[tex]\frac{-14\pm \sqrt{14^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-120\right)}}{2\cdot \:2}[/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{-14\pm \:34}{2\cdot \:2}[/tex]  

If we separate the solutions we get

[tex]x= \frac{20}{4} = 5[/tex]

and

[tex]x= \frac{-48}{4} = -12[/tex]

Since this is a question about length, we can ignore the negative.

So the longer leg is 12ft and the shorter leg is 5ft

The shorter length is 5feet and the longer length is 12 feet

Let the shorter leg = x

Let the longer leg = x+7

Therefore,

x² + (x+7)² = 13²

x² + x² + 14x + 49 = 169

Collect like terms

2x² + 14x + 49 - 169 = 0

2x² + 14x - 120 = 0.

Divide by 2

x² + 7x - 60

By using quadratic equation

x² + 12x - 5x - 60

x(x + 12) - 5(x + 12)

Therefore, x - 5 = 0

x = 0 + 5.

x = 5

The shorter length is 5ft

Longer length = 5+7 = 12 feet

Answer:

There are 2 one-quarter cup servings in 1 half cup

In 5.25 cups there are 21 one-quarter cup servings

Step-by-step explanation:

So 21 quarter cup servings divided by 2 quarter cup servings per half cup serving will yield the number of half cup servings.

21/2 is 10.5, so there are ten and half, half cup servings in 5.25 cups

Suppose that from a standard deck, you draw three cards without replacement. What is the expected number of spades that you will draw

Answers

Answer: The expected number of spades that you will draw is 0.751 spades

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value can be calculated as:

∑xₙ*pₙ

Where xₙ is the n-th event, and pₙ is the probability of that event.

First, let's count the possible events and calculate the probability for each one.

x₀ = drawing 0 spades.

Out of 52 cards, we have only 13 spades, then 52 - 13 = 39 are not spades.

Then the probability of not drawing a spade in the first draw is:

p1 = 39/52

In the second draw we will have a card less than before in the deck (so we have 38 cards that are not spades, and 51 cards in total), then the probability of not drawing a spade is:

p2 = 38/51

And with the same reasoning, in the third draw the probability is:

p3 = 37/50

The joint probability for this event will be:

p₀ = p1*p2*p3 = (39/52)*(38/51)*(37/50) = 0.413

Second event:

x₁ = drawing one spade.

Let's suppose that in the first draw we get the spade, the probability will be:

p1 = 13/52

In the second draw, we get no spade, then the probability is:

p2 = 39/51

in the third draw we also get no spade, the probability is:

p3 = 38/50

And we also have the case where the spade is drawn in the second draw, and in the third draw, then we have 3 permutations, this means that the probability of drawing only one spade is:

p₁ = 3*p1*p2*p3 = 3*(13/52)(39/51)*(38/50) = 0.436

third event:

x₂ = drawing two spades:

Let's assume that in the first draw we do not get a spade, then the probabilities are:

p1 = 39/52

p2 = 13/51

p3 = 12/50

And same as before, we will have 3 permutations, because we could not draw a spade in the second draw, or in the third, then the probability for this case is:

p₂ = 3*p1*p2*p3 = 3*( 39/52)*(13/51)*(12/50) = 0.138

And the last event:

x₃ = drawing 3 spades.

The probabilities will be:

p1 = 13/52

p2 = 12/51

p3 = 11/50

And there are no permutations here, so the joint probability is:

p₃ = p1*p2*p3 = (13/52)*(12/51)*(11/50) = 0.013

Now we can calculate the expected value:

EV = 0*0.413 + 1*0.436 + 2*0.138 + 3*0.013 = 0.751

The expected number of spades that you will draw is 0.751 spades
