To calculate for the area of the triangle given all its side, use the Heron's formula which is, 
 
                            A = sqrt ((s)(s - a)(s - b)(s - c))

where A is the area. a, b, and c are the measure of the sides and s the semi - perimeter or half of the perimeter.

With the given above, s = (17 + 18 + 21.4) / 2 = 28.2

Substituting the known dimensions to the Heron's formula,
          
          A = sqrt ((28.2)(28.2 - 17)(28.2 - 18)(28.2 - 21.4)) = 148 units^3

Thus, the area of the triangle is 148 units^3.

viktelen [127]
The future worth (F) of the investment at present (P) with a compound interest i after n years is calculated through the equation,
                                      F = P x (1 + i)^n
Substituting the known values,
                                      F = ($200) x (1 + 0.07)^5 = $280.51
Thus, the future worth of the investment is approximately $280.51.

Use the relative frequency approach to estimate the probability of the event. In a certain class of students, there are 8 boys f
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}\approx 0.256

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that that there are 8 boys from Wilmette, 5 girls from Kenilworth, 9 girls from Wilmette, 5 boys from Glencoe, 5 boys from Kenilworth and 7 girls from Glenoce.

The total number of students from Kenilworth is 5 boys plus 5 girls that is 10 students.

The total number of students in the class would be 8+5+9+5+5+7=39

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}=\frac{\text{Number of student from Kenilworth}}{\text{Total number of students}}

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}=\frac{10}{39}

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}=0.2564102564

P\text{Student will be from Kenilworth}\approx 0.256

Therefore, the probability, that the student will be from Kenilworth, is approximately 0.256.
