Natalka [10]3 years ago

Answer:

7 are boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a system of equations where g is for girls and b is for boys.

b+g=26

g=3b-2

Substitute "3b-2" in for "g" in the first equation.

b+(3b-2)=26

Rewrite without the parentheses because it's addition and not multiplication.

b+3b-2=26

Combine like terms.

4b-2=26

Add 2 to both sides.

4b=28

Divide by the coefficient of the variable to get it alone.

b=7

o-na [289]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A matched pair t test is one in which the set of data is divided into two sets of data and the test is done to test the difference between the pairs. Sometimes this is called paired t test.\

This is done normally where one group of sample or population can be paired with other group of sample /population.

Hence

A .Measurements of annual income for each twin for 100 randomly selected pairs of twins -- True

B. Measurements of annual income for both individuals in pairs formed by matching 100 people from State A and 100 people from State B based on level of education -- True

C. Measurements of annual income for both individuals in pairs formed by assigning 100 people to pairs at random -- True

D. Measurements of annual income recorded for both spouses of 100 randomly selected married couples  --False here we cannot say paired as these people are not grouped under the same conditions.

A 100 - foot fence is used to enclose a rectangular land plot. If the area of the land plot is 456 square feet, which equation c
quester [9]

Answer:

x^2-50x+456=0

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: A 100\text{ foot} fence is used to enclose a rectangular land plot. If the area of the land plot is 456\text{ feet}^2.

TO FIND: equation to determine the length x of the land plot.

SOLUTION:

total length of fence =100\text{ foot}

let the width of land plot be y

perimeter of plot =2(x+y)=100

                            x+y=50

area of rectangular plot =\text{length}\times\text{breadth}

                                       xy=456

                                      y=\frac{456}{x}

putting value of y

x+\frac{456}{x}=50

x^2-50x+456=0

Hence required equation to get length x of land plot is x^2-50x+456=0

on solving

x=38,12

possible length of land plot is 38\text{ foot} and 12\text{ foot}

GEOMETRY!!! 15 PTSSSSS
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

23) option c

    JL ≈ 9.3

25) option c

      y ≈ 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>25)</h3>

Given in the question that,

cos(21°) = 9 / y

y = 9/cos(21°)

y = 9.64

y ≈ 9.6(nearest tenth)

<h3>23)</h3>

Given in the question that the hypotenuse of right angle triangle = 12

To find,

height of the right angle triangle

angle k = 39°

so by using trigonometry identity

cos(39) = opp/hypo

cos(39) = JL / KL

JL = cos(39)(12)

JL = 9.32

JL ≈ 9.3
