Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides, that is

perimeter = 8 + 12 + 17 = 37 cm

To use Heron's formula for area (A)

A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

where a, b and c are the lengths of sides and s the semi perimeter

s = 37 ÷ 2 = 18.5

let a = 8, b = 12 and c = 17, then

A = \sqrt{18.5(18.5-8)(18.5-12)(18.5-17)}

   = \sqrt{18.5(10.5)(6.5)(1.5)}

   = \sqrt{1893.9375} ≈ 43.52 cm² ( to 2 dec. places )

Hi!

Heron's formula:

s = \dfrac{a+b+c}{2}

Area = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

Perimeter = 8 + 12 + 17 = 37 cm

s = \dfrac{37}{2} = 18.5

Area = \sqrt{18.5(18.5-8)(18.5-12)(18.5-17)} = \sqrt{18.5 * 10.5 * 6.5 * 1.5} = \sqrt{1893,9375}

[tex]\sqrt{1893.9375} ≈ 43.52

Area ≈ 43.52 cm²

Wish Good Lessons! ^-^

How to rank linear functions
Maurinko [17]

In linear algebra, the rank of a matrix

A

A is the dimension of the vector space generated (or spanned) by its columns.[1] This corresponds to the maximal number of linearly independent columns of

A

A. This, in turn, is identical to the dimension of the vector space spanned by its rows.[2] Rank is thus a measure of the "nondegenerateness" of the system of linear equations and linear transformation encoded by

A

A. There are multiple equivalent definitions of rank. A matrix's rank is one of its most fundamental characteristics.

The rank is commonly denoted by

rank

⁡

(

A

)

{\displaystyle \operatorname {rank} (A)} or

rk

⁡

(

A

)

{\displaystyle \operatorname {rk} (A)}; sometimes the parentheses are not written, as in

rank

⁡

A

{\displaystyle \operatorname {rank} A}.

In a certain town, 22% of voters favor a given ballot measure. For groups of 21 voters, find the variance for the number who fav
raketka [301]

c. 4.6

       

21 X .22= 4.6

       

Calculating the variance requires finding the product of 21 and 22%. To make this easier we convert 22% into it's decimal form and construct the equation. To back check this answer we can use 10% of 21 voters which equals 2.1% then double that amount to reach 4.2%, knowing that we now have a close approximation of the variance we can eliminate answers a, b, and d, leaving c as the only logical choice.
