Answer:

The area of a triangle is defined as the total region that is enclosed by the three sides of any particular triangle. Basically, it is equal to half of the base times height, i.e. A = 1/2 × b × h. Hence, to find the area of a tri-sided polygon, we have to know the base (b) and height (h) of it. It is applicable to all types of triangles, whether it is scalene, isosceles or equilateral. To be noted, the base and height of the triangle are perpendicular to each other. The unit of area is measured in square units (m2, cm2).

What is the percent?

madreJ [45]

Hello!

So out of the 950 students at Sunnydale Elementary, 285 wore the school colors. First off, let's divide the number of students that wore the school colors by the number of total students. 285/950 is 0.3. To convert that into a percentage, multiply the decimal by 100. 0.3 * 100 is 30. There. 30% of Sunnydale Elementary students wore the school colors.

Ja’ron collected data about the number of students participating in different types of after-school programs. The chart displays

Degger [83]

Answer:

A. Bar graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are all different activities and don't relate you can put different bars to put the different activities and use the left to indicate the amount of students and grow the bar according to the amount of students in that activity; each bar stands for a different activity, the y-intercept is for the amount of students, the bar will grow 'up' according to the amount of students.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-7, -6) and is parallel to the line x-y=7?

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For two lines to be parallel their slopes must be equal. For two lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be the negative reciprocal of each other.

Step 1 Find the slope of the equation.

Put it into the slope-intercept form. y = mx + b.

For x-y = 7, move the x to the left; therefore subtract the x from both sides. this leaves you -y = -x + 7

Then, divide both sides by -1 to get a positive y. -y/-1 = (-x + 7)/-1

This leaves y = x - 7 The slope(m) for this equation is m = 1

The other equation must also have a slope of 1 or m=1 for the lines to be parallel.

Use the point given to you (-7, -6) and substitute for (x, y)

The slope-intercept form y = mx + b can once again be used.

x = -7, y =-6, and slope or m = 1

Therefore, y = mx + b substituted will be -6 = (1)(-7) + b; now, solve for b which is the y intercept

-6 = -7 + b add 7 to both sides -6 +7 = -7 + b +7 ; therefore, b = 1

Now you know the slope(m) which is equal to 1 and the y-intercept(b) which is equal to 1.

Finally, substitute the m and b in the slope-intercept form

y = (1)x + 1 or y = x +1

Identify which of the following is most appropriate: discrete random variable, continuous random variable, or not a random varia

liraira [26]

Answer:

A.) Continuous random variable ;Not a random variable ; Discrete random Variable ; Continuous random variable ; discrete random variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify which is most appropriate category for the sample data given below :

a. Exact weights of the next 100 babies born in the United States

This is a continuous random varibake as it could take up any value including decimals in other to specify the exact weight of an individual.

b. Responses to the survey question "Which political party do you prefer?"

Not a random variable as the outcome to this question isn't numerical.

c. Numbers of spins of roulette wheels required to get the number 7

This is a discrete random variable as the number of roulette spins would be a whole number within a specified fic range.

d. Exact foot lengths of humans

Continuous random variable

The exact foot length of human would vary greatly and in a bid to give an exact value, foot length will most definitely take up decimal values

e. Shoe sizes (such as 8 or 8½) of humans.

This is also a discrete random variable as shoe sizes are restricted to a specific range. Even with the inclusion of 1/2 in the measurement, there are no values inbetween (8 and 8 1/2) which will be the same for the remaining value range.
