Answer:

I think it should be: P = (85-71)/(85-66) = 14/19

Write an expression to represent the perimeter of:

kotykmax [81]

"Perimeter" is the distance all the way around the drawing. If the drawing has sides, then the perimeter is the SUM of the lengths of all the sides. It's exactly the distance an ant would have to walk along the line, to get all the way around to where he started from.

To get the perimeter of the triangle, you have to add up the lengths of the three sides.

(2a - 3) + (2a) + (3a + 1) =

2a - 3 + 2a + 3a + 1 .

Add up all the 'a's: 2a + 2a + 3a = 7a

Add up all the just plain numbers: -3 + 1 = -2

Write them together, as a binomial: 7a - 2

THAT's your expression for the perimeter.

Which property is used to simplify the expression 5(3x +18) to 15x+90

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Distributive

Step-by-step explanation:

You distribute the 5 into 3x+18, multiplying it by each part of the equation (each part is separated by one of these signs: +, -, x, or /) to get 15x (from 5 x 3x) plus 60 (from 5 x 18).

The bottom of a cylindrical container has an area of 10 cm². The container is filled to a height whose mean is 5 cm, and whose s

disa [49]

Answer:

μv = $50 cm^{3}$

σv= $3 cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume is found by multiplying the area and height. Since we're given both area and height of 10 and 5 cm respectively then

μv =A.h= 10*5= 50 cm^{3}

The standard deviation of the volume will be

σv= 0.3*10= $3 cm^{3}$

Answer:

The test statistic is $t = 2.79$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population mean is $\mu = 59.3$

The sample size is $n = 79$

The sample mean is $\= x = 62.4$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 9.86$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{\= x - \mu }{ \frac{ \sigma}{ \sqrt{n} } }$

substituting values

$t = \frac{ 62.2 - 59.3 }{ \frac{ 9.86}{ \sqrt{ 79} } }$

$t = 2.79$
