Answer:

20.73 ≈ 21 persons per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Total population of Texas = 17.7 million

People having diabetes = 1.45 million

Number of new cases of diabetes diagnosed for the first time = 366,921

Now,

the incidence of diabetes in Texas

= [ Number of new cases diagnosed ] ÷ [ Total population ]

= 366,921 ÷ 17.7 million

= 366,921 ÷ 17,700,000

= 0.02073

thus,

the incidence of diabetes in Texas per 1000 persons

=  0.02073 × 1,000

= 20.73 ≈ 21 persons per year

You can make a tent by throwing a piece of cloth over a clothesline, then securing the edge to the ground with stakes so that an
4vir4ik [10]

Based on the required width and height of the tent, the length of the cloth would have to be 14.4 ft.

<h3>How long should the length of the cloth be?</h3>

The opening of the tent would be an isosceles triangle but if it is divided in two from the top, a right-angled triangle will be formed and the hypotenuse will be the length of the cloth on one side.

That length - according to the Pythagoras theorem - would be:

= √(6² + (8 /2)²)

= √(36 + 16)

= 7.2 ft

As this is the length of one side of the cloth, the length of the entire cloth is:

= 7.2 x 2

= 14.4 ft
