<span>In a rectangle shape walking path, one side form 180 mts and other side is unknown. Instead the diagonal way is given as 200 mts to enter a basketball court, this forms a right angled triangle , which divides as two halves of a rectangle ; applying pythagoras theorem 180^2 +x^2 = 200^2; where x is the unknown side therefore x^2 = 200^2 - 180^2 ; therefore x= 87.2mts Ans :- the unknown distance is 87.2mts</span>

A, b, and c are collinear, and B is between a and c. The ratio of AB to AC is 1:2. If A is at (7,-1) and B is at (2,1) what are

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

C(-3,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = (7,-1)

B = (2,1)

AB:AC = 1:2

Required

Determine the coordinates of C

Since, B is between A and C; we need to determine ratio BC as follows;

$AB:AC = 1:2$

Convert to division

$\frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{1}{2}$

<em>AC = AB + BC;</em>

$\frac{AB}{AB + BC} = \frac{1}{2}$

Cross Multiply

$2 * AB = 1 * (AB + BC)$

$2 AB = AB + BC$

$2AB - AB = BC$

$AB = BC$

Divide both sides by BC

$\frac{AB}{BC} = 1$

Rewrite as

$\frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{1}{1}$

Write as ratio

$AB:BC = 1:1$

Next is to determine the coordinates of C as follows;

Because B is between both points. we have:

$B(x,y) = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{m+n})$

Where

$m:n = AB:BC = 1:1$

$B(x,y) = B(2,1)$

$A(x_1,y_1) = A(7,-1)$

So; we're solving for x2 and y2

$B(2,1) = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{m+n})$

Where

Solving for x2;

$x = \frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m+n}$

$2 = \frac{1 * x_2 + 1 * 7}{1+1}$

$2 = \frac{x_2 + 7}{2}$

Cross Multiply

$2 * 2 = x_2 + 7$

$4 = x_2 + 7$

$x_2 = 4 - 7$

$x_2 = -3$

Solving for y2;

$y = \frac{my_2 + ny_1}{m+n}$

$1 = \frac{1 * y_2 + 1 * -1}{1+1}$

$1 = \frac{y_2- 1}{2}$

Cross Multiply

$2 * 1 = y_2 - 1$

$2 = y_2 - 1$

$y_2 = 2 + 1$

$y_2 = 3$

<em>Hence, the coordinates of C are: C(-3,3)</em>

Jonathan's Antiques purchased an old wooden sled at an auction for $210. Jonathan wants to mark up the sled 60% of the selling p

Elis [28]

Well, if the selling price was 210, and that's the 100%, then if he adds 60% to that, the new price will be 160% of 210... well, if 210 is the 100%, what's 160% of that?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
210&100\\
x&160
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{210}{x}=\cfrac{100}{160}$

solve for "x".

The impact on sampling of increasing the sample size is: There is no specific relationship between sample size and sampling erro

m_a_m_a [10]

Using margin of error, it is found that increasing the sample size results in a smaller sampling error.

The equation for the <em>margin of error</em> is given by:

$M = c\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which:

c is the critical value according to the distribution used.

s is the standard deviation, either of the sample or of the population.

n is the sample size.

From the equation, it can be noted that the margin of error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size, hence, increasing the sample size results in a smaller sampling error.
