Set up a ratio. But first convert the height of the puzzle to feet so we are comparing the same unit of measure.


STEP 1
convert 24 inches to feet

12 inches= 1 foot

24 inches= 2 feet


STEP 2
set up ratio.

= 2 feet/556 feet or 2:556
simplify both by 2

= 1 ft/278 ft or 1:278


ANSWER: 1/278 or 1:278 (can be written either way)

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

:)

Step-by-step explanation:

well if you take 35x, which is 35 times whatever, + 70, you get y. so the first one is 35(1) + 70 = 105.

so i’ll go in order

35 x 1 + 70 = 105

35 x 2 + 70 = 140

35 x 3 + 70 = 175

35 x 4 + 70 = 210.

just multiply then add 70

hope this helped

Answer:

JK=2.25\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional, and this ratio is called the scale factor

so

\frac{JK}{ST}=\frac{KL}{TU}

substitute the given value and solve for JK

\frac{JK}{1.5}=\frac{6}{4}

JK=(1.5)\frac{6}{4}

JK=2.25\ units

a triangle has two sides that are 2 inches and 12 inches what could be the length of the third side of the triangle
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Hmm, let's see. Well a triangle's dimensions add up to 180. If both sides given add up to 14. Simply subtract 180 by 14. You get, 166. If I'm wrong, feel free to correct me on that :)

Parameter of Statistic

From the question, we understand that the teacher is to calculate the class average.

To calculate the class average, the teacher will use the mean function/formula, which is calculated as:

Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}

Generally, mean is an example of a parameter.

<em>So, we can conclude that the teacher will use parameer</em>
