<span>To answer this question, first find the percentage of eighth graders in the sample who chose football. To do this, take ratio of 16/56=.285 and rounding gives us .28 or 28%. Now, if we assume that the sample size reflects the attitudes of all the eighth graders in the school, we take 28% of the total number of eighth graders (495). Doing this we get .28 x 495 = 138.6 or rounding to get 139 students. 139 students are predicted to prefer football.</span>

In triangle RST, angle R is a right angle. If TR = 6 and TS = 8, what is the length of RS
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

RS = 2\sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

RS² + RT² = TS² , that is

RS² + 6² = 8²

RS² + 36 = 64 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

RS² = 28 ( take the square root of both sides )

RS = \sqrt{28} = \sqrt{4(7)} = 2\sqrt{7} ≈ 5.3 ( to 1 dec. place )
