Which group of three squares will form a right triangle when joined at their vertices?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Option ?) 17 cm, 15 cm, 8 cm

The assignment should have four options to choose from, but there is only a picture of two.

Step-by-step explanation:

None of the squares shown form a right triangle. To determine if sides form a right triangle, you use this formula:

a²+b²=c²

We are given two options in the picture.

Option A) 18, 10, and 8.

Option B) 12, 9, and 6.

So, now we need to apply the formula:

Option A)

║8² + 10² = 18²

↓

║64 + 100 = 324

↓

║FALSE

Option B)

║6² + 9² = 12²

↓

║36 + 81 = 144

↓

║FALSE

Both of these options are false. But, I decided to look up this assignment to check my answer. It turns out, there are 4 options, and you only had a picture of two. So, what's the answer?

There is an answer choice that shows 3 squares with the lengths of 17 cm, 15 cm, and 8 cm. This is the correct answer.

For proof, let's apply the formula:

Option ?)

║8² + 15² = 17²

↓

║64 + 225 = 289

↓

║TRUE

[Since the option isn't shown, I'll put a '?' so there is no confusion]

What is the slope of the graph?

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: The slope is $\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line can be calculated with the following formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Observe the graph provided in the exercise.

You can notice that these two points are on the line:

$(2,3)$ and $(7,6)$

Then you can identify that:

$y_2=3\\y_1=6\\\\x_2=2\\x_1=7$

Knowing these coordinates, you can substitute values into the formula for calculate the slope.

Then, you get that the slope of the graph is:

$m=\frac{3-6}{2-7}\\\\m=\frac{-3}{-5}\\\\m=\frac{3}{5}$

Answer:

It shows that the survey is meaningless because of voluntary response bias.

Step-by-step explanation:

This survey in the question provides a very good example of voluntary response bias and this often overrepresents negative opinions. Now, the people who chose to respond were most likely parents who were very unhappy, and so, there is very little chance that the 10,000 respondents were representative of the population. Knowing more about her readers, or taking a sample of the sample, would not have helped.

Thus, we can conclude that ;The survey is meaningless because of voluntary response bias.
