A square patio has an area of 143 square feet. How long is each side of the patio to the nearest tenth?

Since all the sides of a square are the same, all we need to do is take the square root of the area.

√143 = 11.958260...

How to round:

5 and above, round up

4 and below, round down

11.958260... -> 12

Therefore, the side lengths of the square is aproximately 12 feet.

Best of Luck!

A random sample of 8 recent college graduates found that starting salaries for architects in New York City had a mean of $42,653
ycow [4]

Answer:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{9114}{\sqrt{8}} = 6315.68

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 42653 - 6315.68 = 36337.32.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 42653 + 6315.68 = 48968.68.

So the correct answer is:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)

13. Find the equations of the straight lines which passes
ipn [44]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • y = 1/2x +2
  • y = -2x +7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the tangent of the angle it makes with the x-axis. The given line has a slope of -1/3, so the lines we want will have slopes of ...

  m1 = tan(arctan(-1/3) +45°) = 0.5 . . . . . using a calculator

  m2 = tan(arctan(-1/3) -45°) = -2

Of course, these two lines are perpendicular to each other, so their slopes will have a product of -1: (0.5)(-2) = -1.

__

We can use the point-slope form of the equation for a line to write the desired equations:

  y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

<u>Line 1</u>:

  y = 1/2(x -2) +3

  y = 1/2x +2

<u>Line 2</u>:

  y = -2(x -2) +3

  y = -2x +7

Hannah wants to rewrite 18+12 using the greatest common factor and the distributive property. Which expression should she write?
grigory [225]

Answer:

6(3+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property:

ab + ac = a(b+c)

where a = greatest common factor (GCF)

GCF of each factor

18 = 2×3×3

12 = 2×2×3

GCF of 18 and 12 = 2×3

= 6

Therefore,

18 + 12 = 6(3) + 6(2)

= 6(3+2)

Where,

6 = a

3 = b

2 = c

ab + ac = a(b+c)
