Answer:

The triangular prism container is the better deal. Because when u find the volume if the 2 containers the volume of the triangular prism container is more than the volume if the rectangular prism container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of prism is base area × height

volume of the rectangular prism container= 36×5=180

volume of the triangular prism container= 32×6=192

3.A research group had a stack of survey responses. The number of respondents was more than 5000 and fewer than 5500. When the researchers divided the respondents into 13 equal groups, there were no extra respondents. Similarly, there were no extra respondents when they divided the responses into 7 equal groups or 11 equal groups. How many respondents were there?

5005

5005 / 13 = 385
5005 / 7 = 35,035
5005 / 11 = 455

6. a. A poll of 150 voters shows that a candidate is preferred by 56% of the voters while 44% prefer the opponent. Should the candidate be concerned? Explain. 

150 voters = 84 candidate ; 66 opponent

The candidate can be confident that for every 150 voters, 84 of them will vote for him. However, 150 is a small number compared to a population, thus, the candidate must continue his campaign to turn voters into his favor.

b. A later poll of 600 voters shows the candidate is preferred by 55% of the voters. Should this candidate feel more or less confident, given the results of the second poll? Explain.

600 x 55% = 330 voters are for the candidate. The candidate can feel more confident because the initial poll rating still holds true as the number of sample population increases. </span>

Find the slope of the line passing through the points 3,8 and -2,5
valentina_108 [34]
I would graph this to visualize it, and then do rise over run, or y/x to find the slope... Or you can use the formula y1-y2/x1-x2... where y1 is 8, y2 is 5, and the same with x... Hope this helps ;)

Kryger [21]

Answer:

b=−5x+y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for b.

y=5x+b

Step 1: Flip the equation.

b+5x=y

Step 2: Add -5x to both sides.

b+5x+−5x=y+−5x

b=−5x+y
