Answer:

   D.  0.098

Step-by-step explanation:

The probabilities of all choices must total 1, so we have ...

  p(never) + p(married) + p(widowed) + p(divorced) = 1

  p(divorced) = 1 - (p(never) + p(married) + p(widowed))

  = 1 - (0.239 + 0.595 + 0.068) = 1 - 0.902

  p(divorced) = 0.098

Answer:

Height = 14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals meet at right angles. Interesting property.

The hypotenuse is the side of the rhombus = 15 cm

One of the sides of the small triangles created by the intersection of the diagonals = 24/2 = 12

You can find the other side of the the triangle by using the Pythagorean Theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

c = 15

a = 12

b = ?

12^2 + b^2 = 15^2

144 + b^2 = 225

b^2 = 225 - 144

b^2 = 81

b = 9

The area of this right angle = 9 * 12/2 = 54

There are 4 of them so 4 * 54 = 216

That's the area of the rhombus.

The h= Area / b

b = 15

h = 216/15

h = 14.4

Answer:

y = m x + b      standard form of equation for straight line\

        m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (20 - -8) / 17 - 1) = 28 / 16

        m = 7 / 4
