Answer:

D. The new box plot will be positively skewed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a box plot which represents the the heights (in feet) of a sample of pine trees.

We are asked to determine that affect of adding a pine tree that is 140 feet tall to the sample.

We can see from our box plot that the tallest pine tree is 75 feet and 140 is approximately 2 times greater than 75.

After adding the a tree that is 140 feet tall, the maximum height will be 140 and our right whisker will be at point 140.

Since we know that for a positive skewed data, the tail of the distribution is longer on the right hand side.

As 140 is a extreme positive outlier for our given data set, therefore, after adding a tree that is 140 feet tall our box plot will be positively skewed and option D is the correct choice.

R560 invested at 8% p.a. simple interest for 3 years​
alexdok [17]

Answer:

R 694.4

Explanation:

simple interest = \sf{\dfrac{PRT}{100} → \sf \dfrac{560*8*3}{100} → R 134.4

where p refers to principal, r refers to rate, t refers to time.

total money:

invested money + simple interest

R 134.4 + R 560 → R 694.4

Plz explain it to me? and answer

The question states that both parts of Noshi's desk were shaped like trapezoids and both had a height of 3.

We know that the formula for area of a trapezoid is (a+b)/2 * h, where a and b are bases of the trapezoid and h is the height. Note: This is like any other form of trying to find the area, because we are doing base times height, however, we need to divide the sum of the bases by 2 to find the average base length.

Let's call the first trapezoid on the left Trapezoid A and the second slanted trapezoid Trapezoid B.

Area of Trapezoid A = (a+b)/2 * h = (5+8)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
Area of Trapezoid B = (a+b)/2 * h = (4+9)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet

To find the area of Noshi's total desk, we simply need to add the areas of Trapezoid A and Trapezoid B together.

19.5 feet + 19.5 feet = 39 feet

Therefore, the area of Noshi's desk is 39 feet.

Hope this helps! :)

AC =<br> Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.<br> A<br> 5<br> 35<br> B<br> C
baherus [9]

Answer:

2.87 = AC

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hyp

sin 35 = AC /5

5 sin 35 = AC

2.867882182= AC

To the nearest hundredth

2.87 = AC
