Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A = x² - 5x - 14

Factor using AC method.  Here, a = 1, b = -5, and c = -14.

ac = 1×-14 = -14

Factors of -14 that add up to -5 are -7 and 2.

A = (x - 7)(x + 2)

So the dimensions are x-7 and x+2.

Choose the equation you would use to find the altitude of the airplane. tan70 = 0 tan70 = sin70 =
KonstantinChe [14]
The situation is represented by a drawing with a right triangle where an airplane is at the top corner, the elevation angle (opposite to the airplane) is 70°, the height (vertical leg) is x, and the adjacent leg (horizontal leg) to the 70° angle is 800.

Then, to find the height x, which is the opposite leg to the angle,  you can use the tangent ratio, which is opposite leg divided by adjacent leg:

tan(x) = opposite leg / adjacent leg => tan(70°) = x / 800

Answer: tan(70°) = x / 800

Tessa is cooking steak for her family. She wants to be sure the steak has an internal temperature of at least 160 degrees Fahren
Over [174]

Answer:

<u>Population : all the steaks Tessa can cook</u>

<u>Parameter : minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit</u>

<u>Sample : two random thermometer readings</u>

<u>Statistic : minimum sample reading of 165 degrees Fahrenheit</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall the definitions of these statistical concepts and match it with the information that were provided to us:

  • Populations can be the complete set of all similar items that exist, in our case, all the steaks that Tessa can cook.
  • Parameter is is a value that describes a characteristic of an entire population, such as the minimum temperature of the steaks Tessa is cooking in Fahrenheit degrees.
  • Sample is a subset of the population, in our case, the two random readings of the thermometer Tessa did.
  • Statistic is a characteristic of a sample, for our problem, it's the minimum reading of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
