Answer:

The answer is b = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle= 1/2 × b × h

A = 21, h = 7, b = ?

21 = 1/2 × b × 7 (multiplying through)

21 = 7b/2

Cross multiply

2 × 21 = 7b

42 = 7b

b = 42/7

b = 6

Answer:

b = 6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Given the area = 21ft^2

Height = 7ft

Base = ?

Using the above formula

21 = 1/2 x b x 7

21 = 7b/2

Cross multiply

7b = 21 x 2

7b = 42

Divide both sides by 7

7b/7 = 42/7

b = 6ft

The length of the base is 6ft

Please help i have been trying to figure this out for like an hour
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x varies directly as y, the ratio of x to y remains the same. Let the value of x when y=4 be a. Then we have

\dfrac {7 \frac12} {10} = \dfrac a4

We can cross multiply to get that

10a = 30, \text{so } \boxed{a=3}

A sample of 100 independent random numbers is taken from this distribution, and its average is used to estimate the mean of the
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The standard error in estimating the mean = (0.1 × standard deviation of the distribution)

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard error of the mean, for a sample, σₓ is related to the standard deviation, σ, through the relation

σₓ = σ/(√n)

n = sample size = 100

σₓ = σ/(√100)

σₓ = (σ/10) = 0.1σ

Hence, the standard error in estimating the mean = (0.1 × standard deviation of the distribution)

1. Consider the rational numbers 4/13 and 3/10.
Murljashka [212]

A)4/13 would be the larger number since if you were to try to add them, 4/13 = 40/130 and 3/10 = 39/130, 40/130 > 39/130

B) A rational number between them would be 39.5/130.
