Answer:

Option 4, 64 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The polygon in the shape of a star can be made to be easier to find the area of by cutting it into triangle. For all the "point edges" of the star, we can cut them in half from the vertex to create two right-angled triangles at each edge.

The formula of the area of a triangle is bh/2: the height is given as 6cm, the base is 4cm /2 (after you cut it in half) and so is 2 cm. Since the edges can be cut into two, there are 8 right angled triangles at the edges in total.

To find the area of them:

A=8(bh/2)=8(2*6/2)=48 cm^2

However, we are still missing the part at the centre we haven't found the area of, the square. The area of a square is given by the square of the side length(4cm). Thus, A=4*4=16cm^2

Adding the areas of all the edges and the square:

48 + 16 = 64cm^2

Hence, the area of the polygon is 64cm^2

1. A pond has 85 frogs, 20% of the frogs are green the rest are orange, brown, and yellow. How many frogs are green?

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

17 green frogs

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to multiply the decimal form of 20% by 85.

To find the decimal form of a percent you take the decimal (20.00) and move it twice to the left (20.00 ---> .2000)

Now, multiply by .2 by 85

(.2)(85) = 17

Therefore, 17 frogs in the pond of 85 frogs are green

Use the model below to estimate the average annual growth rate of a certain country's population for 1950, 1988, and 2010, where

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The average annual growth rate of a certain country's population for 1950, 1988, and 2010 are 2.398, 0.9985 and 0.2236 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

$Y=-0.0000084x^3+0.00211x^2-0.205x+8.423$

Where Y is the annual growth rate of a certain country's population and x is the number of years after 1900.

Difference between 1950 and 1900 is 50.

Put x=50 in the given equation.

$Y=-0.0000084(50)^3+0.00211(50)^2-0.205(50)+8.423$

$Y=2.398$

Therefore the estimated average annual growth rate of the country's population for 1950 is 2.398.

Difference between 1988 and 1900 is 88.

Put x=88 in the given equation.

$Y=-0.0000084(88)^3+0.00211(88)^2-0.205(88)+8.423$

$Y=0.9984752\approx 0.9985$

Therefore the estimated average annual growth rate of the country's population for 1988 is 0.9985.

Difference between 2010 and 1900 is 110.

Put x=110 in the given equation.

$Y=-0.0000084(110)^3+0.00211(110)^2-0.205(110)+8.423$

$Y=0.2236$

Therefore the estimated average annual growth rate of the country's population for 2010 is 0.2236.

Fed [463]

Answer: 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

uncertainity = 4g

bias = 2g

solution:

σX =0.2 and σY = 0.4

σcX

= 3σX

= 4(0.2)

= 0.8
