a square sandbox has an area of 42 squareft what is the approximate perimeter of the sandbox to the nearest hundredth

1 answer:

3 0

The area of a square is its side length squared. So the side length of the square squared is 42, so the side length of the square is sqrt(42). The perimeter of the square is 4 times the side length, or 4sqrt(42), which is approximately 25.92.

Answer:

If a person is randomly selected from this group, the probability that they have both high blood pressure and high cholesterol is P=0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can calculate the number of people from the sample that has both high blood pressure (HBP) and high cholesterol (HC) using this identity:

$N(\text{HBP or HC})=N(\text{HBP})+N(\text{HC})-N(\text{HBP and HC})\\\\\\ N(\text{HBP and HC})=N(\text{HBP})+N(\text{HC})-N(\text{HBP or HC})\\\\\\ N(\text{HBP and HC})=15+25-30=10$
