Given,
The distance between Indianapolis and Lima, IL = 173 miles
The distance between Indianapolis and Dayton, ID = 165 miles
The distance between Dayton and Lima, DL is unknown
Since there are straight roads connecting the three cities, the connection between them form a right angles triangle.
The right angle is at Dayton
The hypotenuse is the distance between Indianapolis and Lima, IL
Therefore IL^2 = ID^2 + DL^2
173^2 = 165^2 + DL^2
DL^2 = 173^2 – 165^2
DL^2 = 29929 – 27225
DL^2 = 2704
DL = 52 miles
Therefore, The distance between Dayton and Lima, DL = 52 miles
The question is asking how many more miles would Meg drive if she stopped in Dayton first than if she drove directly to Lima.
That is, Distance of Indianapolis to Dayton + Distance of Dayton to Lima – Direct distance of Indianapolis to Lima
That is, ID + DL – IL
= 165 miles + 52 miles – 173 miles
= 217 miles – 173 miles
= 44 miles
Therefore, Meg would drive 44 more miles if she stopped in Dayton first than if she drove directly to Lima.
Answer:
the given equation is y=4/7x
reciprocating both sides you get y/x =7/4
now x and y are directly porportional to each other so
x=ky where k is the constant
or x/y=k ......................(2)
equating 1 and 2
k=7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for "w" to get the width
what's the area of a rectangle? length * width, or lw
The difference between 81 and the mean is
81 - 74 = 7
This is exactly the value of the standard deviation. You know that the "empirical rule" tells you 68% of all scores lie within 1 standard deviation of the mean. That tells you 32% of all scores lie beyond 1 standard deviation from the mean.
The normal distribution is symmetrical, so half of those (16%) lie above 1 standard deviation above the mean; the other half (16%) lie below 1 standard deviation below the mean. We're only concerned with the first group—those scores above 1 standard deviation above the mean.
The appropriate choice is
D. 16%
