Forensic anthropologists analyze skeletons to help solve crimes. They can use the length of a femur bone to estimate the height

of a skeleton. The height of a skeleton is about 30 inches taller than twice the legth of the femur bone. Let h represent the height of a skeleton. Let f represent the length of a femur bone. Write an equation to represent the height of a skeleton.

Answer:

h = 2f + 30 (in inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the femur bone is f. Hence twice the length of femur bone is 2f. since height of skeleton is 30 inches taller than 2f,

<u>h = 2f + 30</u>, assuming h is measured in inches

Anson estimated he would need 17 hours to complete his science project. He actually needed 19 1 2 hours. What was his percent er
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The percentage of error is 14.71 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Estimated time for completion of project is, ET=17\ h

Actual time for completion of project is, AT=19\frac{1}{2}=\frac{39}{2}\ h

Difference in error =AT - ET = \frac{39}{2}-17=\frac{39-34}{2}=\frac{5}{2}=2.5\ h

Percentage in error = \frac{2.5}{17}\times 100=14.71\%

Therefore, the percentage of error is 14.71 %

1. A bag contains four green gumballs, three blue gumballs, and two red gumballs, all the same size and shape.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. P (red) = <u>2/9</u>

b. P (blue) = 3/9 = <u>1/3</u>

c. P (green) = <u>4/9</u>

d. Green, because out of the three types of gumballs, the green gumballs are more in number, therefore, it is the one you are most likely to get.

I need help with Precal asap !!!! I’ll mark u as brainliest, please if you don’t know the correct answer don’t write down.
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Equation 1:  r = <u>4</u> +( <u>3</u> * <u>cos theta</u>  )

Equation 2: r = sqrt (<u> 5²</u> * <u>sin(2 theta)</u> )

Step-by-step explanation:

GRAPH 1:  

The first graph is a dimpled limacon.

General equation for dimpled limacon:

r = a + b cos theta                     ∴ if dimple is along the x- axis

r = a + b sin theta                      ∴ if dimple is along the y-axis

y-intercept : { a, -a }  = { 4, -4 }   ∴ the points at which limacon intersects y-axis

Negative side of x-axis = ( a – b ) ⇒ 1

Positive side of x-axis = ( a + b ) ⇒ 7

Subtract the value of a from sum of a and b to find b:

b = 7 – 4 ⇒ 3

Equation1:  r = <u>4</u> +( <u>3</u> * <u>cos theta</u>  )

GRAPH 2:  

The second graph is a lemniscates.  

General equation for lemniscates is:

r² = a² cos(2theta)                        ∴ if petals of graph are on coordinate axis

r² = a² sin(2 theta)                ∴ if petals of graph are not on coordinate axis

now, according to the graph:

a = 5 ⇒ a² = 25

angle of graph:  cos2θ, simply divide 360° by 2:

\frac{360}{2} ⇒ 180°

The petals cannot be on coordinate axis, we start from 45° and then the next petal will be on:

45° + 180° = 225°

Since the graph is not on the coordinate axis, so

r² = 5² sin(2 theta)   ⇒    r = sqrt ( 5² * sin(2 theta) )      

Equation 2: r = sqrt (<u> 5²</u> * <u>sin(2 theta)</u> )

If I observe a bed of mussels on the coast of California in which five species live where the abundances of each species are 100
babymother [125]

Answer:

The Probability of randomly picking the third species=0.316

Step-by-step explanation:

In a bed of mussels on the coast of California in which five species live,

The Abundance of each Species are 100, 500, 998, 12, and 1548

Total Value=100+500+998+12+1548=3158

Abundance of third Species=998

Probability=\frac{Abundance of Selected Species}{Total Abundance}

Probability (randomly picking the third species) =\frac{998}{3158}=\frac{499}{1579}=0.316
