A group of mountain climbers begin an expedition with 250 pounds of food. They plan to eat a total of 12 pounds of food per day.
Advocard [28]
Use the equation y=mx+b where m is the slope (how much it increases each time) and b is the y intercept (starting point).

Your equation would be: y=12x+0 because they eat 12 pounds each day and they start out having eaten 0 pounds.

To solve the equation, plug in the total amount of food for y and use algebra to solve for x:
250=12x
(divide by 12)
(250/12)=x
X=20.833

Their food would last approximately 20 days. (Make sure you round if required)

What is the difference between a parameter and a statistic? A parameter is an aspect of an individual subject or object being me
Aliun [14]

Answer:

A parameter is a numerical measurement describing data from a population. A statistic is a numerical measurement describing data from a sample

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics we have to deal with populations and samples to carry out our studies. A population is a large group under consideration and the elements or members of the population have some common features or attributes. For example, all the school going kids in a certain town will be considered a population. Sample on the other hand is a subset(a part) of the population. For example, all school going kids in the town aged 5-6 years will be considered a sample.

The term Parameter and Statistic are very similar as they represent some numeric description. Parameter represents the data of the entire population, while statistic represents that data of a sample. An easy way to remember this is to match the initials i.e. Parameter for Population and Statistic for Sample.

Considering this, we can say the correct answer is:

A parameter is a numerical measurement describing data from a population. A statistic is a numerical measurement describing data from a sample

What is the volume of the right prism with height h=14 cm, if the base of the prism is a triangle ∆ABC with side AB = 9 cm and a
Lina20 [59]
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
volume of prism = 378 cm³

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>The volume of the right prism can be calculated as follows:</u>
volume of prism = area of base * height of prism

<u>1- getting the area of base:</u>
Our base is a triangle, this means that:
area = 0.5 * base * height
We have:
base = 9 cm
height = 6 cm
Therefore:
area of base = 0.5 * 9 * 6
area of base = 27 cm²

<u>2- getting the volume:</u>
volume of prism = area of base * height of prism
volume of prism = 27 * 14
volume of prism = 378 cm³

Hope this helps :)
