Answer:

  • base: 50 ft
  • height: 60 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is ...

  A = (1/2)bh

Filling in the numbers you are given, you get ...

  1500 = (1/2)(5/6h)(h)

  3600 = h^2 . . . . . . . . . multiply by 12/5

  60 = h . . . . . . . . . . . . . .square root

  b = 5/6·60 = 50 . . . . . . base is 5/6 of height

The measures of the base and height are 50 ft and 60 ft, respectively.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Since 95% confidence interval contains 0 we conclude at 95% confidence level that the two means are equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a  fast food study a researcher finds that mean sodium content of 32 Wendy's fish sandwiches is 1080 milligrams with a standard deviation of 75 milligrams. The mean sodium content of 39 Long John Silver's fish sandwiches is 1120 milligrams with a standard deviation of 100 milligrams

H0: The two means are equal

Ha: The two means are not equal

(Two tailed test at 5% level)

Variable A Variable B

Mean 1080.00 1120.00

SD 75.00 100.00

SEM 13.26 16.01

N 32 39

95% CI: -82.65 to 2.65

Since 95% confidence interval contains 0 we conclude at 95% confidence level that the two means are equal.

Abby used the quadratic formula to find the zeros of the
MArishka [77]

Step 2: She did not simplify under the square root correctly

under the square root:

(-6)^2 =36

and -4(5)(-8) =160

therefore under the square root it needs to be square root of 36+160 which is square root of 196.

That answer is 14 when square rooted

The answer is representativeness heuristic. This is used when making decisions about the likelihood of an occasion under doubt. It is unique of a group of heuristics (simple rules leading decision or decision-making) suggested by psychologists Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman in the 1970s.

Sergeu [11.5K]
Let p = pictures only
let f = pictures with frames

p + f = 100
5p + 10f = 875

Solve for one variable in the first equation then plug into the second

p = 100 - f
5(100 - f) + 10f = 875
500 - 5f + 10f = 875
500 + 5f = 875
5f = 375
f = 75

75 pictures with frames were sold
