Answer:

hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that when using sin and cos functions, the hypotenuse is always included as the denominator of the equation EXCEPT when you're solving with tan, which is opposite/adjacent.

The initial population of a town is 3600, and it grows with a doubling time of 10 years. What will the population be in 8 year

shutvik [7]

If is doubles in 10 years, then you should divide 2 by 10 to get the yearly growth rate equaling 1/5. Multiply 1/5 by 8 equals 8/5= 1 3/5. multiply that number by 3600, giving you 5,760.

What is the median value of the data set shown on the line plot? Enter your answer in the box. A line plot with twenty-two data

Bogdan [553]

Answer: the median is 6.

Please see the picture attached.

A line plot shows the number of occurrences (crosses) of each number of a data set.

The median is the central value, the middle number, of a data set ordered from least to greatest. When there are two middle numbers, the median will be the mean between the two.

In order to find the median, look at the line plot: count how many values you have (22), then add 1 (23) and divide by two (11.5). Since we have an even number of values, we will have two middle numbers, which will be in the eleventh and twelfth position.

Count the crosses from the left, the eleventh and twelfth crosses both correspond to the number 6, therefore the median is 6.

You can also write all the numbers in increasing order and divide them into two equal groups:
1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6 | 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 11

The median will be the average between the two central numbers, therefore 6 (again).

Write an expression for the calculation the difference of the products of 5 and 2 and 5 and 1

oee [108]

Let's review the terminology. A product is what you get when you multiply two numbers. So, the product of 5 and 2 is basically "5*2," and the product of 5 and 1 is "5*1."

The difference means when you subtract one from the other. So, the difference of 5*2 and 5*1 means "(5*2)-(5*1)". (Note: I put in parentheses to make sure the reader understands that 5*2 is separate from 5*1. 5*2-5*1 is confusing: you might not know what to do first!)

So, "(5*2)-(5*1)" can be your answer, OR you can simplify it further by actually doing the multiplication: "10-5". If you want the answer, just subtract--the expression is equal to 5.

Answer: "<span>(5*2)-(5*1)" OR "10-5" OR "5"</span>
