Answer:

<u>The vertical axis will start from 0 inches.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • As data provides information that
  • 28% plant are under 6 inches.
  • 54% are between six and 8 inches.
  • 18% are above 8 inches.
  • So the least height is not mentioned only it is mentioned that below the 6 inches which means from 0 inches to six inches.
  • And in making bar graph vertical axis should start from least value.
  • Hence here possible least value is 0 inches.

<u>Answer:</u>

The vertical axis should begin with 0 inches.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The vertical axis must start with 0 inches to ensure accuracy for the measures of every plant since 28% of the plants in the garden are under 6 inches.

If the vertical axis begins with 6 inches or above, we can miss a lot of the gardener's data, especially the plants which are under 6 inches.

Therefore, to ensure that the graph does not mislead any measures of the plant, the vertical axis must begin with 0 inches.

Svetllana [295]
In this item, it is assumed that since the pattern is cut out of the paper which is usually a rectangle then, the shape of the pattern is also rectangle. The perimeter of the rectangle is,

           P = 2L + 2W

The area is equal to,
              Area = L x W

If we assume that length and width are equal, in order to maximize the space. 
              1600 cm² = L x L

The value of L from the equation is 40 cm.

This circle graph shows how Jimmy spent his time during the last 24 hours.
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Excess time = 1.2 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total time = 24 hours

Talking on phone = 17 %

Sleeping = 33%

Going to school = 25%

Studying = 4%

Eating = 8%

Computation:

Watching TV percent = 100% - Talking on phone - Sleeping - Going to school - Studying -  Studying - Eating

Watching TV percent = 100% - 17% - 33% - 25% - 4% - 8%

Watching TV percent = 13%

Time taken by school = 24 x 25%

Time taken by school = 6 hour

Time taken by watching T.V. and Talking on the Phone = 24 x (13% + 17%)

Time taken by watching T.V. and Talking on the Phone = 7.2 hour

Excess time = 7.2 - 6

Excess time = 1.2 hour

Using the information given, select the statement that can deduce the line segments to be parallel. If there are none, then sele
Nataly [62]
The second choice is correct.  Given that angle 2 and angle 6 are congruent, the largest in each of the corresponding triangles are vertical angles meaning that two known angles are known in each triangle (and they are equal) which means that the last "unknown" (angles 3 and 7) are congruent.  The lines DC and AB correspond with these defined, congruent triangles meaning they are parallel.
