<h3>Answer: Approximately 0.677</h3>

Explanation:

Add up the values in the plan A column. There are 10+12+16 = 38 people who prefer plan A.

Add up the values in the "40-49" row to find that 16+8 = 24 people are ages 40 to 49.

We have 38+24-16 = 46 people who either prefer plan A, are aged 40-49, or fit both descriptions. I subtracted off 16 because those 16 people were counted twice when adding 38 and 24.

An alternative way to get this value of 46 is to add up everything that is in column1 or row 3 (or both). So that would get 10+12+16+8 = 46.

Now add up everything in the table to find out how many people were surveyed total. That would be 10+7+12+15+16+8 = 68 people overall.

The probability of someone liking plan A, or being age 40-49, or both is 46/68 = 0.6765 approximately. Rounding to 3 decimal places gives 0.677

Dennis walks from (–5, –2) to (–5, 5) on the map. Which expression represents the distance that he walked? |-2| + |5| |-5 + 5| |
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

|-2| + |5|

Step-by-step explanation:

Dennis walks from (–5, –2) to (–5, 5) on the map.

Point on the format (x,y). On the x-coordinate, he stayed at the same position, x = -5, so it does not enter the distance calculation.

On the y-coordinate, he went from -2 to 5, so the distance is of:

d = 5 - (-2) = 5 + 2 = |5| + |2| = |5| + |-2| = 7

So the correct option is |-2| + |5|

A 15-minute TV program consists of one commercial of 1
Margarita [4]

Answer:

6 7/8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the entertainment segments are each x minutes long. Then, we have the equation:

x + x + 1 1/4 = 15

2x + 1 1/4 = 15

2x = 15 - 1 1/4

We need a common denominator. 1 1/4 = 5/4 and 15 = 60/4, so we now have:

60/4 - 5/4 = 55/4. Then: 2x = 55/4

Divide by 2 from both sides:

(55/4) / 2 = 55/8 = 6 7/8

Thus, each entertainment segment is 6 7/8 minutes long.

Hope this helps!

Find the volume of this figure to the nearest whole number. Use 3.14 for pi.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

≈ 1800 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the figure above will be given by the formula

Cross section area × length

In this case;

Cross section area will be;

Area of the square + area of the two semi circles

12× 12 + 2(3.14 × 6 ×6/2)

= 144 + 3.14 ×36

= 257.04 mm²

Volume = Cross section area × Length

             = 257.04 × 7

             = 1799.28 mm³

           <u> ≈ 1800 mm³</u>

What is the slope !!!!!
Ratling [72]
Hello there! Slope is rise/run. The formula for finding slope is y2 - y1/ x2 - x1, meaning that you subtract the first x and y-coordinates from the second x and y-coordinates. We'll use the points (0, 3) and (3, 2) for this case. Plug in the values into the formula to get this:

2 - 3 / 3 - 0

Subtract the values in order to get -1/3. There. The slope of the line is -1/3.
