Based on the calculations, the dimensions of the rectangle are

  1. Length, L = 156 meters.
  2. Width, w = 65 meters.

<h3>What is a diagonal?</h3>

The diagonal of a rectangle can be defined as a line segment that connects any two (2) of its non-adjacent vertices together while dividing the rectangle into two (2) equal parts.

Mathematically, the length of diagonals of a rectangle can be calculated by using this formula:

d = √(l² + w²)

Where:

  • d is the diagonal of a rectangle.
  • l is the length of a rectangle.
  • w is the width of a rectangle.

Since the ratio of the length to the width is 12:5, we have:

Width, w = 5l/12

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

169 = √(l² + (5l/12)²)

169² = l² + (5l/12)²

169² = l² + (25l²/144)

Length, L = 156 meters.

For the width, we have:

Width, w = 5l/12

Width, w = 5(156)/12

Width, w = 65 meters.

A manager finds a moderate negative correlation between the number of computer sales and the number of microwave sales in his st
eduard

The true statement is the correlation is most likely due to a lurking variable.

<h3>What is negative correlation?</h3>

Correlation is a statistical measure used to measure the relationship that exists between two variables. Negative correlation is when there is an inverse relationship between the two variables. If one variable increases, the other variable decreases.

Assume that the store is located near a school where the students live on an allowance. So, students do not have time to buy both computers and microwaves. When students buy computers they do not have enough money to buy microwaves. This explains the negative correlation.

Find the sum of the first 17 terms of the arithmetic sequence 10, 14, 18, 22, 26...
kari74 [83]
10, 14, 18 ....

notice, we get the next term by simply adding 4 to the current term, thus "4" is the "common difference, and we know that 10 is the first term.

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}&#10;\\\\&#10;a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;n=n^{th}\ term\\&#10;a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\&#10;d=\textit{common difference}\\&#10;----------\\&#10;a_1=10\\&#10;d=4\\&#10;n=17&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;a_{17}=10+(17-1)(4)\implies a_{17}=10+(16)(4)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;a_{17}=10+64\implies a_{17}=74\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \textit{ sum of a finite arithmetic sequence}&#10;\\\\&#10;S_n=\cfrac{n(a_1+a_n)}{2}\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;n=n^{th}\ term\\&#10;a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\&#10;----------\\&#10;a_1=10\\&#10;a_{17}=74\\&#10;n=17&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;S_{17}=\cfrac{17(10+74)}{2}\implies S_{17}=\cfrac{17(84)}{2}\implies S_{17}=714

Please help with this question
belka [17]

Answer:

18.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for rel. freq. is:

Relative Frequency = Class Frequency/n

Where

Class Frequency will be the number of students in the class we are interested in (in 35-38, the number of students is 9)

n is the total number of students [which is 6+7+8+9+10+9= 49]

Putting into formula we get:

Relative Frequency = 9/49 = 0.1837

To get percentage, we need to multiply by 100:

0.1837 * 100 = 18.37%

Rounded to 1 decimal place, that is  18.4%
