Mariah's house sits on an irregular lot with a triangular-shaped backyard. Most of the backyard will be grass, but Mariah would

also like a rectangular garden plot. Before she heads to the garden center, she needs to calculate a few measurements. How many square yards will be grass?
24 yd 2
46 yd 2
22 yd 2
18 yd 2

For this, you'll be subtracting the area of the garden plot from the area of the whole backyard. However, you need to convert feet to yards. I'll be using dimensional analysis to solve that:


\frac{2 ft}{1} *\frac{12in}{1ft} *\frac{1yd}{36in} =\frac{24}{36} =\frac{2}{3} yd



Now that we know its 2/3 yd, we can solve for the areas.


Rectangle: A=bh \\A=\frac{3}{1} *\frac{2}{3} \\ \\ A=\frac{6}{3} =2


Triangle: A=\frac{1}{2} bh\\ \\A=\frac{1}{2} *6*8\\\\ A=24



Now that we got the areas, its time to subtract: 24-2=22


The grass will be 22 yds^2

The volume of cone B will be 6 cubic units.

<h3>What is the volume of the cone?</h3>

Let h be the height of the cone and A be the base area of the cone.

Then the volume of the cone will be

Volume = (1/3) × A × h

Consider cone A and cone B.

The bases of the cones are congruent.

The height of cone A is 4 times larger than the height of cone B.

\rm h_a = 4h_b

The volume of cone A is 24.

24 = (1/3) Ahₐ

Then the volume of the cone B will be

\rm V = (1/3)Ah_b

Simplify the expression, then the volume will be

V = 1/4 x (1/3)Ahₐ

V = 1/4 x 24

V = 6 cubic units

The volume of cone B will be 6 cubic units.

More about the volume of the cone link is given below.

4.06 Question 9
Jlenok [28]

Answer: B. Graph of 2 lines that intersect at one point. Both lines are solid. One line passes through (-2,2) and (0,3) and is shaded below the line.

y < = 1/2x + 3...(-2,2)                y < = 1/2x + 3....(0,3)

2 < = 1/2(-2) + 3                        3 < = 1/2(0) + 3

2 < = -1 + 3                                3 < = 0 + 3

2 < = 2 (correct)                        3 < = 3 (correct)

The other line passes through points (0,1) and (1,-2) and is shaded above the line.

y > = -3x + 1...(0,1)            y > = -3x + 1...(1,-2)

1 > = -3(0) + 1                   -2 > = -3(1) + 1

1 > = 0 + 1                         -2 > = -3 + 1

1 > = 1 (correct)                 -2 > = -2 (correct)

A sample of small bottles and their contents has the following weights (in grams): 4, 2, 5, 4, 5, 2, and 6. What is the sample v
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

What is the sample variance of bottle weight 2.33

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the mean. The mean of the bottle weight is obtained by taking the ratio of the sum of ages and total number of ages.

Mean = (4+2+5+4+5+2+6) / 7

          = 28 / 7

          = 4

Sample Variance = \frac{\left[\begin{array}{ccc}(4-4)^{2} +(2-4)^{2} +\\(5-4)^{2} + (4-4)^{2} +\\(5-4)^{2} + (2-4)^{2} +\\(6-4)^{2}\end{array}\right]}{7-1}

                             =\frac{0+4+1+0+1+4+4}{6}

                             = 2.33

Use a graphing calculator to find the value of the correlation coefficient r to determine if there is a strong correlation among
OlgaM077 [116]

The value for r = - 0.8535 ,  there is strong correlation between the variables.

<h3>What is a correlation coefficient  ?</h3>

Correlation coefficient describes the relationship between the two variables in the data .

The data given is

(1, 7), (2, 5), (3, -1), (4, 3), (5, -5)

Assuming Linear Regression ,

The data is plotted on the graphing calculator

The value for r = - 0.8535

as the value is in the range of - .85 to -1 , therefore there is strong correlation between the variables.

vredina [299]
-2 = -(x-8)
-2 = -x + 8   ( - * + = -  and - * - = + )

-2 - 8 = -x +8 - 8
-2 - 8 = -x 
-(2+8) = - x
-10 = -x     | * (-1)
