Given:
Area of a right triangle = 18 sq. inches
Length of one leg = 6 inches
To find:
The length of another leg.
Solution:
We know that, the area of a triangle is

In a right angle triangle, the area of the triangle is

Putting A=18 and
, we get


Divide both sides by 3.


Both legs are equal so the given triangle is an isosceles right triangle.
If the triangle is not isosceles triangle, then the length of legs are factors of 36 because half of 36 is 18.
Therefore, the possible pairs of legs are 1 and 36, 2 and 18, 3 and 12, 4 and 9, 6 and 6, 9 and 4, 12 and 3, 18 and 2, 36 and 1.
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Suppose John is a high school statistics teacher who believes that watching many hours of TV leads to lower test scores. Immediately after giving the most recent test, he surveyed each of the 24 students in his class and asked them how many hours of TV they watched that week. He then matched each student's test grade with his or her survey response. After compiling the data, he used hours of TV watched to predict each student's test score. He found the least-squares regression line to be y" = -1.5x + 85.
He also calculated that the value of r, the correlation, was -0.61.
what is the correct value of the coefficient of determination R² and give a correct interpretation of its meaning
Answer:
Interpretation of coefficient of determination R² = 0.3721
R² = 0.3721, meaning 37.21% of the total variation in test scores can be explained by the least square regression line
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
the least square regression line is;
y" = -1.5x + 85
the correlation coefficient r = -0.61
Now, the coefficient of determination R² is square of correlation coefficient r
R² = -61²
R² = 0.3721
Answer:
P = 2(n - 6) + 2(n^2 - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Remembering that Area = Length times Width, we factor the given function
A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48 in the expectation that the resulting factors represent the length and width respectively:
A = n^3 - 6n^2 - 8n + 48 factors as follows:
A = n^2(n - 6) - 8(n - 6), or A = (n - 6)(n^2 - 8)
We can label '(n - 6)' "width" and '(n^2 - 8'
length.
Then the perimeter, P, of the rectangle is P = 2(length) + 2(width). which works out here to:
P = 2(n - 6) + 2(n^2 - 8)
Answer:
y = 7 
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the given ordered pairs to find a and b
Using (0, 7 ), then
7 = a
(
= 1 ), thus
a = 7
y = 7 
Using (5, 1701 )
1701 = 7
( divide both sides by 7 )
243 =
( take the fifth root of both sides )
b =
= 3 , thus
y = 7
Yes, this is because 2*4 equals 8
