Answer:

20 in  

Step-by-step explanation:

Tree 1:

Rate of growth = (½ ft/2 yr)

  12 yr growth = 12 × (½/2)

                       = 6/2

                       = 3 ft

                       = 36 in

Tree 2:

Rate of growth = (4 in/3yr)

  12 yr growth = 12 × (4/3)

                       = 48/3

                       = 16 in

Difference:

Tree 1 - Tree 2 = 36 - 16

                            = 20 in

The trees will differ in height by 20 in.

A survey of high school juniors found the 75% of the students plan on attending college. If you pick 3 students at random, what
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Assuming you pick 3 students at random, The probability that at least two plan on attending college is 84%.

<h3>Probability</h3>

Using Binomial Distribution

Given:

n = 3

p = 0.75

q = 1-0.95 = 0.25

Hence:

P[≥2] = P[2] + P[3]=(3c2 ×0.75²×0.25) + 0.75³

P[≥2] = P[2] + P[3]=0.421875+0.421875

P[≥2] = P[2] + P[3]=0.84375×100

P[≥2] = P[2] + P[3]=84% (Approximately)

Inconclusion the probability that at least two plan on attending college is 84%.

Anyone helppp meee please ....

Yep, this one seems sneaky and confusing.  But it's not so bad if you remember the things you learned about parallel lines.  (It can't be too tough ... I learned them
in 1954 and I still know how to use them.)

Look at the picture.  Line ' l ' is parallel to line ' m ', and the horizontal line on the bottom (which is not labeled) is a transversal that cuts the parallel lines.

Did you learn that interior angles on the same side of the transversal are equal ?
I'm sure you did, although it may have a new name nowadays.

Anyway, with the help of that 'tool', angle-'B' and angle-'D' are equal.  So . . .

(angle-A + angle-B) = 120

angle-B = 65

angle-A = 120 - 65 = <u>55 degrees</u>.

In the figure, the perimeter of hexagon ABCDEF is approximately
Nikitich [7]
First solve the length of side BC, CD, EF and FA   Since BC = CD = sqrt( 10^2 + 10^2) BC = CD = 14.1421  
FA = EF = sqrt(10^2 + 20^2) = 23.3607  
So the perimeter = 10 + 10 + 14.1421 + 14.1421 + 23.3607 = 93

The area is made up be triangle FAE, rectangle ABDE and triangle BCD
A = 0.5(20)(20) + (10)(20) + 0.5(20)(10)
<span>A = 500 sq units</span>

Someone please help me with this algebra problem
nevsk [136]

Answer:

$110

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for the decrease in money per desk purchased. Because the x-axis is the number of desks purchased, what we have to find is the (opposite) of the slope. The formula to represent slope can be written as:

\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}- x_{1} }

We can substitute the points given, (2, 480) and (5, 150) and simplify:

\frac{150-480}{5-2} =\frac{-330}{3} = -110

We would multiply by -1 because we are asking for the decrease, and negative increase is decrease. -1 * -110, gives us $110
