Basically, when dealing with measurement problems such as these you ALWAYS need to have a key, or keys. The key(s) in this situation would be: 1 inch equals 12 feet, and 12 inches equals 1 foot. Now what you need to do is solve. So, width of the building's lot is 114 feet. You want to divide that by twelve because, remember one of the key(s) is 1 inch=12 feet. So the twelve you are dividing by is the 1 inch= 12 feet equation. Now when you divide 114÷12, you get the answer of 9.5, AKA 9 1/2. And now to check the answer, multiply 9.5 with 12, and that would give you 114. I hope this helps!

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (−2, −3) with a slope of −6.

Y=mx+b where m=-6, x=-2, and y=-3. Substituting these values in would result in -3=(-6)(-2)+b, which would simplify to -3=12+b, and further to b=-15. This would mean the y intercept is equal to -15, or (0,-15). To check, (-6)*(-2)-15 is in fact equal to -3, thus allowing easy identification of a graph, which will cross the y axis at -15 and decrease in y-value by 6 with every increase in x-value.

At Brighton Middle School, Mr. Yule asked 50 randomly selected students from each grade level about their favorite subject, and

Ugo [173]

Answer:

Yes, he made a reasonable inference by saying about 25 percent of students choose the science.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Number of students for survey = 50

Number of students who choose science = 12

Now

Percentage of student who choose science = $\frac{12}{50} x 100$

Percentage of student who choose science = $\frac{12*100}{50}$

Percentage of student who choose science = 24 %

Now as Mr. Yule said "about 25" percent of students choose the science it can be treated as reasonable approximation.

Now if the number of students in survey become 200, then we can expect 12 out of every 50 students would choose the science. So, in total 48 students would choose the science.

Now lets calculate the percentage of students who choose science.

Percentage of student who choose science = $\frac{48}{200} x 100$

Percentage of student who choose science = $\frac{48*100}{200}$

Percentage of student who choose science = 24 %

Find the area of the trapezoid.

lozanna [386]

Check the picture below.

$\textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} h=height\\ a,b=\stackrel{parallel}{sides}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=8\\ a=14\\ b=8 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} A=\cfrac{8(14+8)}{2}\implies A=4(22) \\\\\\ A=88 \end{array}$
