Answer:

0.509

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a random sample of 1016 adults in a certain large country was asked​ "Do you pretty much think televisions are a necessity or a luxury you could do​ without?"

Of the 1016 adults​ surveyed, 517 indicated that televisions are a luxury they could do without.

To find out the point estimate of population proportion of adults in the country who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without.

We find that point estimate is nothing but sample proportion

Sample proportion = favourably voters/total people surveyed

= \frac{517}{1016} \\=0.5088\\=0.509

The area of a triangle is 20 cm², and the
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Heavenly,  we need the forumula for the area of a triangle, do you know it?

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle is (1/2 ) * B*H

where B = base

H = height

then

A = 1/2* B * H

A is given to be 20

B = b

H = b+4

plug all those into the formula,

20 = (1/2)*b*(b+4)

use your algebra skillz  :P

20 = 1/2 *( b^{2} + 4b)

20*2 = b^{2} + 4b

40 = b^{2} + 4b

0 = b^{2} + 4b-40

rewrite the above so it's in x format

x^{2} + 4x -40 = 0

use the quadratic formula to find  x  , and for our problem, remember that x represents the base,  or b,  but don't mix it up with the b in the quadatic fomula,  with the b of the triangle, which is the base,  they are differnt "b"s   :P

X = (b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c } ) / 2*a

a = 1

b = 4

c = -40

x = (4±\sqrt{4^{2}-4*1*(-40) }  ) /2*1

x = ( 4±\sqrt{16+160} ) / 2

x = (4±\sqrt{176} ) / 2

x = (4±13.266499)/2

x= 2±6.633249

x = 2 + 6.633249 = 8.633

b= 8.633 cm
