Answer:

111.8 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

So by walking diagonally across the field, Patrick is making a right triangle with his path (the two legs are the width and length of the field). Let a = 50, b = 100, and c = the distance Patrick walks.

For a right triangle, we use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

Since you're finding c, we can rearrange (using algebra) to get: $c = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}$

Fill in the values for a and b: $c = \sqrt{50^{2} + 100^{2} } = \sqrt{12500}$ = 111.8 yards.

Answer:

The bias most likely to be present in the survey results is;

Option A; This is question wording bias because the survey question attempts to influence subjects’ responses.

Step-by-step explanation:

A bias occurs when a group or outcome is intentionally or unintentionally favored over another group or outcome in the a general population.

There are two main types which are;

- Selection bias which includes; Non - response bias, non representative sample and voluntary bias

- Response Bias which includes wording bias, extreme responses, neutral responses e.t.c

Let's look at each of the options;

Option A; This is correct because what occurred is that the concerned student by telling the adults adverse effect of plastics in our environment, he is indirectly influencing the adults to have a bad mindset about the plastics. He is leading them on by the way he phrased the word to ask the question.

Option B; This is not the reason why it is a response bias. The reason it is a response bias is because he led them on with his wording of the question.

Option C; Like said in Option A & B above, the scenario is that of a response bias since they are giving answers.

Option D; Voluntary response bias is a type of non-response bias and so it is not correct here

Answer:

52√3 ft ²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of the trapezoid:

$A=\frac{a+b}2h$

a = Base = 11

b = Base = 15

h = Height = 4√3

Since the height is 4√3 we can turn it into a number:

4√3 = 6.92820323028 = 6.93

Now using the formula:

$A=\frac{a+b}2h=\frac{11+15}2\times6.93=90.06664$ $=90.07$

As you can see that it not a answer choice.

We can turn the answer choice into number:

44√3 ft ² = 76.21023553.. ≈ 76.20

44√3-24 ft ²=52.21023553.. ≈ 52.20

60√3 ft ² = 103.92304845.. ≈ 103.90

52√3 ft ² = 90.06664199.. ≈ 90.07

Thus, the answer is 52√3 ft ²

I'm thinking of a number. When I double my number and then subtract the result from five I get negative one. What is my number

storchak [24]

X - the number
you double the number - 2x
you subtract the result from five - 5-2x
you get negative one - 5-2x=-1

$5-2x=-1 \\
-2x=-1-5 \\
-2x=-6 \\
x=\frac{-6}{-2} \\
x=3$

The number is 3.
