Answer:

  E)  176

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in ratio units is 5 -3 = 2. If one ratio unit changes sides, the ratio will be 4 : 4, or 1 : 1. Then one ratio unit represents 22 group members.

There are a total of 5+3 = 8 ratio units, so there are ...

  8 × 22 = 176

people in the group.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The original group has 5 × 22 = 110 Yankees fans and 3 × 22 = 66 Dodgers fans, for a total of 110+66 = 176 group members. If 22 switch sides, there will be 110-22 = 88 Yankees fans and 66+22 = 88 Dodgers fans, making the ratio ...

  88 : 88 = 1 : 1

In the rectangle below AC has a length of 28. What is the length of ED? If necessary, round your answer to two decimals places.
expeople1 [14]
<span>The diagonals of a rectangle have equal lengths. Since AC has a length of 28, and AC is a diagonal, the other diagonal BD also has a length of 28. The diagonals of a rectangle also bisect each other. So diagonal BD is bisected by the other diagonal AC at point E. And since diagonal BD has a length of 28 then BE and ED both have a length which is of 28, or 14 each.

Answer: ED has a length of 14.</span>

A volleyball reaches its maximum height of 13 feet, 3 seconds after its served. Which of the following quadratics could model th
julsineya [31]
Only selections B and D give a maximum height of 13 at t=3. However, both of those functions have the height be -5 at t=0, meaning the ball was served from 5 ft below ground. This does not seem like an appropriate model.

We suspect ...
• the "correct" answers are probably B and D
• whoever wrote the problem wasn't paying attention.
