There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.
It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.
Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle
base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)
Plug in the numbers
x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5
The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm
Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The human resource department at a certain company wants to conduct a survey regarding worker morale. The department has an alphabetical list of all 4,502 employees at the company and wants to conduct a systematic sample of size 50.
Systematic sampling is a kind of probability sampling method in which individuals from a larger population are nominated according to a random initial point and a static, periodic interval.
(a)
A sample of size 50.
Then the value of <em>k</em> will be: 
Thus, the value of <em>k</em> is 90.
(b)
Label the employees from 1 to 4502.
And select every 90th employee.
So, the individuals who will be administered the survey are:
90th, 180th, 270th,...
Answer:
92%
Step-by-step explanation:
because there are 100 squares and 92 are shaded
Answer: the answer is 5.40
