The [Detroit] Pistons did not lose because of the lack of ability. They are an all-around better team. They lost because of the

law of averages. They will beat the [San Antonio] Spurs every two times out of three. When you examine the NBA finals [of 2005], that is exactly how they lost the seventh (last game) because that would have been three out of three. The Spurs will beat the Pistons one out of three. It just so happens that, that one time was the final game, because the Pistons had already won two in a row.

Premise 2: The Pistons will beat the Spurs two out of three times, and the Spurs will beat one out of three times

Premise 3: The Pistons won the series ' 5th and 6th games — two in a row, and if they had won the final game they would have won three out of three.

What is the area of the shape below
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The area of the shape is A=886 \:cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape in the graph is a composite figure is made up of several simple geometric figures such as triangles, and rectangles.

Area is the space inside of a two-dimensional shape. We can also think of area as the amount of space a shape covers.

To calculate the area of a composite shape you must divide the shape into rectangles, triangles or other shapes you can find the area of and then add the areas back together.

First  separate the composite shape into three simpler shapes, in this case two rectangles and  a triangle. Then find the area of each figure.

To find the area of a rectangle, we multiply the length of the rectangle by the width of the rectangle.

The area of the first rectangle is A=34\cdot 16=544\:cm^2

The area of the second rectangle is A=11\cdot19=209\: cm^2

The area of a triangle is given by the formula A=\frac{1}{2} bh where <em>b</em> is the base and <em>h</em> is the height of the triangle.

The area of the triangle is A=\frac{1}{2} \cdot 14\cdot19=133\:cm^2

Finally, add the areas of the simpler figures together to find the total area of the  composite figure.

A_{composite\:shape}=544+209+133=886 \:cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

period = length of an interval that contains exactly one copy of the repeating pattern, so from one peak to another peak.

in this graph its the peaks are 1 and 17, hence the period is 16
