Answer:

Option d. 36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know in a triangle if the measurement of two sides are given then third side of the triangle should be less than the sum of these two sides. Otherwise construction of a triangle is not possible.

Here two sides are 15 inches and 18 inches so third side of the triangle should be less than 18+15 = 33.

Third side < 33

Therefore third side with the measurement of 36 inches is not possible.

Option d. 36 inches is the answer.

The sum of the lengths of the two sides given is 15 inches + 18 inches = 33 inches. The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. This means that the length of the third side of the triangle must be less than 33 inches. It also means that the length of the third side of the triangle must be greater than the difference between the lengths of the two sides given, which is 18 inches – 15 inches = 3 inches. Since the third side must have a length of between 3 inches and 33 inches, the third side of the triangle cannot have a length of 36 inches.

If the correlation between height and weight of a large group of people is 0.75​, find the coefficient of determination​ (as a​
Shtirlitz [24]
Independent variable is the predictor variable which is the height and dependent variable is the response variable which is weight in this scenario.

The square of correlation coefficient gives the coefficient of determination. It is denoted by R² (R squared).

We are given:
R = 0.75

So,
R²  = 0.75²

R² = 0.5625

R²  = 56.25 %
The coefficient of determination tells how much of the trend of dependent data can be explained by the independent data using the linear regression model. So in the given case, Height can explain 56.25% of the trend in the weight.

Answer: The measurement of ∠EFG is equal to 70°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two interior angles who are always opposite to an exterior angle sums to that exterior angle. So we would start as the following:

(6x - 10) + 38 = 7x + 18

In order to find m∠EFG, we must first isolate x. In order to do that, we first add like terms together on both sides.

(6x - 10) + 38 = 7x + 18

6x + 28 = 7x + 18

We then substract 18 on both sides.

6x + 10 = 7x

We finally substract 6x from both sides in order to have the value of x.

x = 10

Now that we know the value of x, we substitute it in our the equation in order to find m∠EFG.

m∠EFG = 6x + 10

m∠EFG = 6(10) + 10

m∠EFG = 60 + 10

m∠EFG = 70
