Answer: 8.48 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem, A^2 + B^2 = C^2

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

A^2 + 3^2 = 9^2

A^2 + 9 = 81

81 - 9 = A^2

72 = A^2

√72 = A

8.48 = A

Hope this helps!

elsa,ryan, and jim sent a total of 116 text messgaes during the weekend. ryan sent 4 times as many messages as jim. elsa sent 10

kozerog [31]

The number of messages sent by Elsa, Ryan and Jim are 11 , 84 and 21 respectively.

Explanation

Suppose, the number of messages Jim sent is $x$

As Ryan sent 4 times as many messages as Jim, so the number of messages sent by Ryan $= 4x$

Also, Elsa sent 10 fewer messages than Jim, so the number of messages sent by Elsa $= x-10$

Given that, they sent a total of 116 text messages. So the equation will be.......

$x+4x+(x-10)=116\\ \\ 6x-10=116\\ \\ 6x= 126\\ \\ x= \frac{126}{6}= 21$

So, the number of messages sent by each of them.....

$Jim = 21\\ Ryan = 4*21= 84\\ Elsa= 21-10= 11$

A recent survey estimated that 19 percent of all people living in a certain region regularly use sunscreen when going outdoors.

serg [7]

The correct option is: (E) It is plausible that the percent of all people living in the region who regularly use sunscreen is 18.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is a statistic expressing the amount of random sampling error that occurred due to miscalculation and survey results. The margin error is usually a small amount of error.

Generally 5% of margin of error is common and acceptable. When the percentage of the margin of error increases, the confidence in the report result will be reduced.

The recent survey reveals that 19% of the people living in a certain region regularly use sunscreen when going outdoors. The permissible margin of error in this survey is 1%.

Probably the percentage of people using sunscreen in the particular region will be 18.5%.
