Answer:

1875 square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 10 women and 3 men. Let's define two variables:

w: land inherited by a woman

m: land inherited by a man

Given that they inherited a 30000 (square miles) of land and that each brother has inherited double what each sister has inherited, we can establish the next equations:

2*w = m

10*w + 3*m = 30000

Replacing the first equation into the second one, and solving for w:

10*w + 3*2*w = 30000

16*w = 30000

w = 30000/16

w = 1875 square miles

Your mom, and all of her sisters, inherited 1875 square miles each

Answer:

The volume is 25.1 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$r = 2$ --- base radius

$h = 2$ --- height

Required

The volume (V) of the cylinder

This is calculated using:

$V = \pi r^2h$

So, we have:

$V = \frac{22}{7} * 2^2 * 2$

$V = \frac{22}{7} * 4 * 2$

$V = \frac{22* 4 * 2}{7}$

$V = \frac{176}{7}$

$V = 25.1$

Which equation is equivalent to

o-na [289]

The equation x² + 81 = (x + 10)² is equivalent to $\sqrt{x^2 + 81} = x + 10$

<h3>How to determine the equivalent equation?</h3>

The equation is given as:

$\sqrt{x^2 + 81} = x + 10$

Square both sides

x² + 81 = (x + 10)²

Although it can be further simplified, the above equation is equivalent to $\sqrt{x^2 + 81} = x + 10$

A study will be conducted to investigate whether there is a difference in the mean weights between two populations of raccoons.

enyata [817]

Answer:

<h2>In this case,the answer would be option d) given in the answer choices or options or A two-sample t-test for a difference between population means.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In Statistics,a two sample test is generally used to examine or compare two different population means with the main objective to verify whether the population means are equal or otherwise.
The two sample t-test basically involves the hypothesis testing to determine or verify the equality between two concerned population means.
In this case,the two different populations of raccoons are given and the equality of the mean sample weights of the two distinct populations can be determined or evaluated by employing the hypothesis testing method under a two sample t test for measuring difference in two population means.

A line passes through the point (0, 1) and has a positive slope. Which of these points could that line NOT pass through? Check a

Vinvika [58]

We have to find slopes one by one.

$\\ \sf\longmapsto Slope=m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

#1

(0,1)
(12,3)

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{3-1}{12-0}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{2}{12}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{1}{6}>0$

Line passes through this.

#2

(-2,-5)

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{-5-1}{-2-0}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{-6}{-2}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3>0$

Line passes through this

#3

(-3,1)

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{1-1}{-3-0}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{0}{-3}=0$

Not possible (Line passes through y axis as one co-ordinate is (0,1))

#4

( 1,15)

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{15-1}{1-0}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{14}{1}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 14>0$

Line passes through this

#5

(5,-2)

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{-2-1}{5-0}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{-3}{5}$

Line doesnot pass through this.
