This is like a 30-60-90 triangle with a hypotenuse of 7. Since the relationship of the base to the hypotenuse in a 30-60-90 triangle is 1:2, the answer is 7/2=3.5 ft. Hope this helps!

The points (1, 5) and (0, –2) fall on a particular line. What is its equation in slope-intercept form?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

y = 7x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

first we need the slope of the line.

the slope is expressed a the ratio (y coordinate change / x coordinate change) when we go from one point on the line to another.

so, let's say we go from (0, -2) to (1, 5), we see

x changes by +1 (from 0 to 1).

y changes by +7 (from -2 to 5)

so the slope is +7/+1 = 7

the slope-intercept form is in general

y = ax + b

a being the slope, b being the y-intercept (the y-value for x = 0).

the point (0, -2) gives us therefore the y-intercept directly : -2.

by using the already established slope and the point (0, -2) for the y-intercept the equation of our line is

y = 7x - 2

Answer:

In this section, we discuss box-and-whisker plots and the five key values. The key values are called a five-number summary, which consists of the minimum, first quartile, the set is put into increasing order, divides the data into two equal parts. First, we put the values in the data set into increasing order: 3, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, the middle score for a set of data that has been arranged in order from least to greatest. A box-and-whisker plot shows the distribution of a set of data along with... Quartiles are values that divide a set of data into four equal parts. The second Quartile ( designated Q2) also called the median or the 50th percentile (cuts data set in half ).
