Answer:

Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot is equal to the area of Mr. Brown's lot

Step-by-step explanation:

We can suppose the dimensions of Mrs. Rockwell's lot to be:

Length = x

Width = y

Then, we can write the dimensions of Mr. Brown's lot as:

Length = half as long as Mrs. Rockwell's lot

Length = 0.5x

Width = twice as wide as Mrs. Rockwell's lot

Width = 2y

Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot = Length * Width

                                             = x*y  

Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot = xy

Area of Mr. Brown's lot = 0.5x*2y

Area of Mr. Brown's lot = xy

<u>Area of Mrs. Rockwell's lot </u><u>is equal</u><u> to the area of Mr. Brown's lot, as calculated above</u>.

Elena randomly chooses a number from 1 to 10. What is the probability she chooses a number greater than 5?
zepelin [54]

ANSWER

P(E)=\frac{1}{2}

EXPLANATION

From the given information, Elena chooses a number from 1 to 10.

The sample space is

S={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}

n(S)=10

The numbers greater than 5 are:

E={6,7,8,9,10}

n(E)=5

The probability that, she chooses a number greater than 5 is:

P(E) =  \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}

Substitute the values,

P(E) =  \frac{5}{10}

P(E) =  \frac{1}{2}

Use the data to create a scatter plot\<br> forks: 2,4,6,8,10,12<br> spoons: 10,6,4,1,0,2
Len [333]

Answer:

The resulting scatter plot is attached below :

To plot the required scatter plot :

We first take forks on the x - axis and the spoons on the y - axis

Now we arrange the given data in the form of x and y coordinates

Hence, the data becomes :

(2, 10)

(4, 6)

(6, 4)

(8, 1)

(10, 0)

(12, 2)

Now, We plot these points on the graph and get the required scatter plot for the given data.

Find the value of x to the nearest tenth.<br> 9.0<br> 8.6<br> 26.3<br> 5.7
Ket [755]

Answer: x = 9.0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given right angle triangle,

the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle is x

With m∠39 as the reference angle,

the adjacent side of the right angle triangle is 7

The unknown side represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle.

To determine x, we would apply

the cosine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as

Cos θ = adjacent side/hypotenuse. Therefore,

Cos 39 = 7/x

x = 7/cos 39 = 7/0.777

x = 9.0 to the nearest tenth

Find m angle A
stepan [7]

Answer:

  D.  14°

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Sines tells you sides are in proportion to the sine of the opposite angle:

  sin(A)/BC = sin(B)/AC

  sin(A) = BC/AC·sin(B)

  A = arcsin(BC/AC·sin(B)) = arcsin(7/28·sin(75°)) ≈ 13.974° ≈ 14°
