Answer:
12 3/4 same slope fro both
13 DE = 5, CB = 10
14 see below
Step-by-step explanation:
12. the slopes are the same
D(0, 3) E(4, 6) slope is (change in y)/(change in x)
change in y = 3 to 6 is a change of +3
Change in x = 0 to 4 is a change of +4
slope is 3/4
13 To fine lengths you can distance formula or Pythagorean theorem (spoiler: they are related to each other)
DE² = 3² + 4²
DE² = 9 + 12
DE² = 25
√DE² = √25 = 5
DE = 5
and
CB² = 6² + 8²
CB² = 36 + 64
CB² = 100
√CB² = √100 = 10
CB = 10
14. since the slopes are the same are DE is 1/2 or CB its is the mid segment. because (taken from mathopenref.com/trianglemidsegment.html)
The midsegment is always parallel to the third side of the triangle. In the figure above, drag any point around and convince yourself that this is always true.
The midsegment is always half the length of the third side. In the figure above, drag point A around. Notice the midsegment length never changes because the side BC never changes.
A triangle has three possible midsegments, depending on which pair of sides is initially joined.
A = 1/3 * s^2 * h where s is a side of the base and h is the height.
Answer:
Dependent Variable : Tire tread wear ; Independent Variable : Tire Brand ; Confounding Variable : Person driving
Step-by-step explanation:
Dependent Variable is the variable being affected by independent variable(s). Independent Variable(s) are the causal variable, bring change in dependent variable.
Goodrich wants to demonstrate that his tires were better than those of his competitor (Goodyear). For that, he has got conducted an independent research on tires worn quality - brand wise & various factors affecting wear
- Dependent Variable is the 'Tire tread wear '.
- Independent Variables determining it is primarily brand : Goodrich / Goodyear ; secondarily - price, mileage, time etc
Confounding variable is an extraneous influence variable; that changes the relationship between independent & dependent variable, outcome of experimental research.
In this case : Individuals driving the vehicles could be a confounding variable. A particular person could wear out tire more than another person.
Answer:
60miles
Step-by-step explanation:
if they drove x miles in the city and y miles on the highway then you know that
x + y = 280
x/12 + y/20 = 16
x + 12y/20 = 16*12 = 192
8y/20 = 88
y = 220
x = 280-y = 280-220 = 60
