<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

                 B.   2 pounds.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Juan’s bag of apples that he bought weighed 31/7 pounds.

Ari’s bag of oranges that she bought weighed 19/3 pounds.

Let Ari's bag be x times heavier than Juan's bag.

This means that:

x=\dfrac{19}{3}-\dfrac{31}{7}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{19\times 7-31\times 3}{21}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{133-93}{21}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=\dfrac{40}{21}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=1.904

which is approximately equal to 2 pounds.

The amount by which Ari's bag is heavier then the Juan's Bag is approx : 2 pounds

Answer:

  (a) scalene, see attachment

  (b) acute, see attachment

  (c) correct; isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The sides of the triangle all have different lengths, so the triangle is scalene. Differences in coordinates between the points of the triangle are (6, 2), (5, 2), and (4, 1), so no two distances between these points can be the same.

__

(b) The angle opposite the longest side is clearly an acute angle, so the triangle is an acute triangle.

__

(c) Miles and Brad live on the same north/south line. Jose lives at a distance that is halfway between those houses in the north-south direction. Hence the distance to Miles' and Brad's houses must be the same from Jose's house. That means the triangle connecting Miles', Brad's, and Jose's houses will be an isosceles triangle.

Please help me with this problem and thank you Find the lateral area of this cone leave your answer in terms of pie
alexandr1967 [171]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  260π in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The slant height is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 10 and 24. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we find it to be ...

  l² = 10² +24² = 100 +576 = 676

  l = √676 = 26

The given formula tells you the lateral area is ...

  A = πrl = π(10 in)(26 in)

  A = 260π in² . . . . . cone's lateral area

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The name of the constant relating diameter to circumference (π) is "pi". It is the 16th letter of the Greek alphabet. "Pie" is something else entirely.

Consider the gender and class make-up of students at a large university by gender and status as given in the table.
azamat

Answer:

0.589

Step-by-step explanation:

THis is a conditional probability question. Let's look at the formula first:

P (A | B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

" | " means "given that".

So, it means, the <u><em>"Probabilty A given that B is equal to Probability A intersection B divided by probability of B."</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

So we want to know P (Female | Undergraduate ). This in formula is:

P (Female | Undergraduate) = P (Female ∩ Undergraduate)/P(Undergraduate)

Now,

P (Female ∩ Undergraduate) means what is common in both female and undergraduate? There are 43% female that are undergrads. Hence,

P (Female ∩ Undergraduate) = 0.43

Also,

P (Undergraduate) is how many undergrads are there? There are 73% undergrads, so that is P (undergraduate) = 0.73

<em>plugging into the formula we get:</em>

P (Female | Undergraduate) = P (Female ∩ Undergraduate)/P(Undergraduate)

=0.43/0.73 = 0.589

this is the answer.

rate of change = (y2-y1) /(x2-x1)

                         = (5-3)/(1-0)

                         = 2/1

                            =2
