Answer:

$\sqrt{269}$ is ≈ 14.01

Step-by-step explanation:

If the table top is a square, to find the area, you would multiply one side times itself.

If you are given the area, and need to find the sides, you will take the square root of the area to find the side length.

Your question doesn't say to round, but 269 is not a perfect square.

$\sqrt{269}$ is ≈ 14.01

If the area of the base was 169, that is a perfect square. $\sqrt{169}$ = 13

ladessa [460]

Given:

Area of a right triangle = 18 sq. inches

Length of one leg = 6 inches

To find:

The length of another leg.

Solution:

We know that, the area of a triangle is

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times height$

In a right angle triangle, the area of the triangle is

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times leg_1\times leg_2$

Putting A=18 and $leg_1=6$ , we get

$18=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6\times leg_2$

$18=3\times leg_2$

Divide both sides by 3.

$\dfrac{18}{3}=leg_2$

$6=leg_2$

Both legs are equal so the given triangle is an isosceles right triangle.

If the triangle is not isosceles triangle, then the length of legs are factors of 36 because half of 36 is 18.

Therefore, the possible pairs of legs are 1 and 36, 2 and 18, 3 and 12, 4 and 9, 6 and 6, 9 and 4, 12 and 3, 18 and 2, 36 and 1.

Answer:

b. multinomial population

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is categorical and non-overlapping. That is, there are multiple options(either the student is in the Liberal Arts College, Business College or Education College), and he cannot be in more than one option.

So this is an example of a multinomial population.

The correct answer is:

b. multinomial population

You want to eliminate one of the terms (x or y) in one of the equations so you can solve for the other variable. You have to multiply by the opposite number of the coefficient to be able to eliminate the term in the other equation. If the x coefficient is 2, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by -2. If the y coefficient is -5, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by 5.

10)
-4x + 9y= 9
x - 3y= -6

STEP 1:
multiply the bottom equation by 4
4(x- 3y)= 4(-6)
4x - 12y= -24

STEP 2:
add the top equation and the equation from step 2

-4x + 9y= 9
4x - 12y= -24
the x term cancels out

-3y= 15
divide both sides by -3

y= -5

STEP 2:
substitute the y value in either original equation to solve for x

x - 3y= -6
x - 3(-5)= -6

x + 15= -6
subtract 15 from both sides

x= -21

ANSWER: x= -21; y= -5

12)
-7x + y= -19
-2x + 3y= -19

STEP 1:
multiply the top equation by -3 to eliminate the y term and to solve for x

-3(-7x + y)= -3(-19)
21x - 3y= 57

STEP 2:
add the bottom equation and the equation from step 2 to solve for x

-2x + 3y= -19
21x - 3y= 57
the y term cancels out

19x= 38
divide both sides by 19

x= 2

STEP 3:
substitute the x value in step 2 to solve for y; you can use either original equation

-7x + y= -19
-7(2) + y= -19

-14 + y= -19
add 14 to both sides

y= -5

ANSWER: x= 2; y=-5
