Parking at a large university has become a very big problem. University administrators are interested in determining the average

parking time​ (e.g. the time it takes a student to find a parking​ spot) of its students. An administrator inconspicuously followed 260 students and carefully recorded their parking times. Identify the population of interest to the university administration.

Answer:

The 260 students that are followed.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the situation explained in the question, the university administration is trying to collect data on the students' parking times to figure out a solution for the parking problem in the university.

After following and collecting data from 260 students, the population of interest to the university administration should be the all 260 students that the data is collected from because population of interest describes a "population" that are being studied and having data collected from them.

I hope this answer helps.

On a coordinate plane, triangles R S T and L M N are shown. Triangle R S T has points (5, 5), (2, 1), and (1, 3). Triangle L M N
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

LMN has a larger area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

RST

R =(5,5)

S= (2,1)

T = (1,3)

LMN

L = (0,-1)

M= (2,-4)

N= (-2,-3)

Required

Compare both areas

The area of triangle is:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|

For RST, we have:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|5*1 - 2*5 + 2*3 - 1*1 + 1*5 - 5*3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|-10|

Remove absolute signs

Area = \frac{1}{2}*10

Area = 10

For LMN, we have:

Area = \frac{1}{2}|x_1y_2 - x_2y_1 + x_2y_3 - x_3y_2 + x_3y_1 - x_1y_3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|0*-4-2*-1+2*-3--2*-4--2*-1-0*-3|

Area = \frac{1}{2}|-14|

Remove absolute signs

Area = \frac{1}{2}*14

Area = 7

<em>By comparing both areas, we can conclude that LMN has a larger area</em>

If 35.4067=3/p+5/q+4r+6/s+7t, then the value of 2p+4q+5r+7s+3t​
sweet [91]

Answer:

7004.7003

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

35.4067=\displaystyle\frac{3}{p}+\frac{5}{q}+4r+\frac{6}{s}+7t

We know that,

35.4067 = (3\times 10^1) + (5\times 10^0) + (4\times 10^{-1})+(0\times 10^{-2}) + (6\times 10^{-3}) + (7\times 10^{-4})

Comparing the two equations, we get:

\displaystyle\frac{1}{p} = 10^1\\\\p = 10^{-1}\\q = 10^0\\r = 10^{-1}\\s = 10^3\\t = 10^{-4}

We have to evaluate:

2p+4q+5r+7s+3t

Putting values, we get:

(2\times 10^{-1}) + (4\times 10^0) + (5\times 10^{-1}) + (7\times 10^3) + (3\times 10^{-4})\\=0.2 + 4 + 0.5 + 7000 + 0.0003\\=7004.7003

For what values of x and y is PQRS a parallelogram? P 2y + 2 y + 4 2x + 3 S R y + 5 X = y= 0​
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

x = 2 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to have a parallelogram, the opposite sides must be equal in length

Thus, we have it that;

2y + 2 = y + 5

2y - y = 5-2

y = 3

To get the value of x

y + 4 = 2x + 3

Recall y = 3: substitute this value

3 + 4 = 2x + 3

3+ 4 - 3 = 2x

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2

Can someone answer questions 8-14 asap and show their work on a piece of paper thanks
Stells [14]
8. So here, you know the angle of elevation and the adjacent, and you're looking for the opposite. So first, put the angle into a tan calculator, because tan is the opposite/adjacent.

What you get is 8.64 ish.

So now, since you know the adjacent, just multiply the two together. 

8.64 * 20 = 172.8, or about 173.

9. a.  You can use the pythagorean's theorem to find this, or a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 = c ^ 2.

Basically, as long as you know the two legs' lengths in a right triangle, or a and b, you can find the hypotenuse, or c.

The two legs' lengths are 35 and 58.

So 35 ^ 2 + 58 ^ 2 = c ^ 2

1225 + 3364 = c ^ 2

4589 = c ^ 2

Then, you can square root both sides

\sqrt{4589} = c

About 68 = c

68 km

b. To do this, just divide the two together, to find the ratio of opposite / hypotenuse (sin), or 58 / 68, which equals about 0.85

Put that in the sin ^ -1 in a calculator to get about 58.211, or 58 degrees.

10. I'm sure there's a more efficient way to do this that I don't know about but I'm stupid. 

a. Whelp, me not knowing how to find the angle of indication/elevation leads to me just using tan because why not. 3.83 is about the answer, or 4.

b. Just multiply 15 by 15, to get 225 m.

11. umm, is there a b to this question?

a: sorry I don't know how to do this one :(

12. a. pythagorean's theorem, a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 = 5.6 ^ 2

Or a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 = 31.36

Since a = b,

a ^ 2 + a ^ 2 = 31.36

2a^{2} = 31.36

/2                             /2

a ^ 2 = 15.68

a = \sqrt{15.68}

about 3.96 = a

3.96 + 3.96 + 5.6 = 13.52

b. Use sin here. 28 degrees in one of those sin calculators is 0.47.

That means the opposite / hypotenuse = 0.47.

So just multiply 0.47 by the hypotenuse, or 10.7, to get about 5.

So the short side of the rectangle is 5.

So you can either do the same with cosine or use the pythagorean's theorem. Either way, you should get about 9.4.

So the perimeter is 5 + 5 + 9.4 + 9.4 = 28.8 (ish)

13. To find the outside length of one of the four triangles or the hypotenuse, since you know the opposite, use sine. Sine is opposite / hypotenuse. 50 degrees in a sin thing is about 0.77. So that means 1.4 / hypotenuse = 0.77, or 1.4 / 0.77, which equals about 1.82.

So the length of the hypotenuse is about 1.82. That times 4 is 7.28, or about 7.3.

14. I'm sorry I don't know how to do this one, I can try tho :(
