Answer:

28 baskets

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Shots = 100

Backboard and miss = 2/5 of total

That is:

\frac{2}{5}*100=40

Rim and miss = 32% of total

That is:

32% = 32/100 = 0.32

0.32 * 100 = 32 shots

So, miss = 40 + 32 = 72

The rest, she makes, so left:

100 - 72 = 28 shots

Alicia makes 28 baskets (from 100)

The correlation coefficient r between a child’s age, x, and the number of minutes spent doing homework each day, y, is 0.694. Wh
jonny [76]
<span>So, they are looking for the percentage that is NOT explained... Well, given the r we can find the percentage that IS explained by it first. That's given by r^2.

</span>Now - let's take the square of r it gives me .481636. That means that about 48% IS explained. Therefore, the part that cannot be explained must be the missing part (out of 100% <span>so 100% - 48.1636% should be it :)
</span>
<span>So 100% - 48.1636% = 0.518364 and we want to round that off to three decimal places which will give us 0.518... and then we could convert that to a percent for the final. So 0.518 as a percentage is 51.8%! s</span>

y = x2 - 6x - 8 Complete the square in the quadratic equation in order to write the equation in vertex form.
Airida [17]

Answer:

y = (x-3)^2 - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, take the middle term bx and divide it in two. Then take the square.

x^2 - 6x - 8 has bx = -6x. Take -6/2 = -3. Square -3^2 = 9.

Now to finish completing the square add 9 and subtract 9 from one side.

y = x^2 - 6x - 8

y = (x^2 - 6x +9) -9 - 8

y = (x-3)^2 - 17

A parabola and its directrix are shown on the graph. On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens upward. It has a vertex at (0, 0) a
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The focus of the parabola is at the point (0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the focus of a parabola resides at the same distance from the parabola's vertex, as the distance from the parabola's vertex to the directrix, and on the side of the curve's concavity. In fact this is a nice geometrical property of the parabola and the way it can be constructed base of its definition: "All those points on the lane whose distance to the focus equal the distance to the directrix."

Then, the focus must be at a distance of two units from the vertex, (0,0), on in line with the parabola's axis of symmetry (x=0), and on the positive side of the y-axis (notice the directrix is on the negative side of the y-axis. So that puts the focus of this parabola at the point (0, 2)

Find the surface area of the prism below. See attachment, 58 cm is incorrect.
Masja [62]

Answer:

Surface area of the given figure = 48 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area is nothing area of all the sides.

We can find the area of each figure add them together.

There are two triangles with the same measures.

One rectangle with measure of 4 by 3.

Another rectangle with the measure of 5 by 3.

One square with the measure of 3.

Surface area = Area of two triangles + rectangle 1 + rectangle 2 + square

Formulas:

Area of the triangle = 1/2 base* height

Area of the rectangle = length * width

Area of the square = side x side

Applying the formula, we get

=2[1/2 (3*4)] + 4*3 + 5*3 + 3^2

= 12 + 12 + 15 + 9

Surface area of the given figure = 48 cm^2

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
