Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 9 15's in 120 which means its going by 15's 3 x 5= 15 and if it says 6 that means its timesed by 2. 15 x 2= 30 then 30 x 10= 300

The first metacarpal bone is located in the wrist. The scatterplot below shows the relationship between the length of the first

gulaghasi [49]

The question is incomplete so I am writing the complete question below and attaching the scatter plot as well.

The first metacarpal bone is located in the wrist. The scatterplot below shows the relationship between the length of the first metacarpal bone and height for 9 people. The line of best fit is also shown

How many of the nine people have an actual height that differs by more than 3 centimeters from the height predicted by the line of best fit?

Answer:

4 people have an actual height that differs by more than 3 cm from the height predicted by the line of best fit.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking us to identify which people have a height that is more than 3 cm greater or more than 3 cm less then the height predicted by the line of best fit. Hence, we need to look at the outliers of the line if best fit i.e. the points which do not lie on the line. We need to select the points that differ by 3 or more cm.

So, we can see that the first person (4 cm) has an actual height of 157 cm but the line of best fit shows the height is 161.5. So, there is a difference of more than 3 cm (161.5 - 157 = 4.5).

The second outlier at 4.3 has an actual height of 175 cm but the line of best fit shows a height of 167 cm. There is a difference of 8 cm hence this person also has an actual height which differs by more than 3 cm from the line of best fit.

At 4.8 cm metacarpal bone height, the person's actual height is 172 cm but the graph shows a height of 176 cm hence this person also has an actual height which differs by more than 3 cm from the line of best fit.

At 4.9 cm on the x-axis, the person has an actual height of 183 cm but the line of best fit shows 178 cm so this person also has an actual height which differs by more than 3 cm from the line of best fit.

So, in total there are 4 people out of 9 whose heights differ by more than 3 cm from the line of best fit.

Find the area of the triangle whose vertices are (2, 3); (-1, 0); (2, -4)...

Neko [114]

Answer:

Area = 14.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label the given coordinates A, B, C;

Thus;

A = (2, 3)

B = (-1, 0)

C = (2, -4)

From the coordinate geometry formula, the formula for area of a triangle with 3 vertices is;

Area = [Ax(By - Cy) + Bx(Cy - Ay) + Cx(Ay - By)]/2

Area = [2(0 - (-4)) + (-1)(-4 - 3) + 2(3 - (-4))]/2

Area = 29/2

Area = 14.5

I need to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find X. I don’t know how to do that!!

frutty [35]

Answer:

17) x=8

18) $x=\sqrt{189}$ or $x= 3\sqrt{21}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So the rule is $a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}$ , "c" being the hypothenuse, or the long line that is opposite to the right angle.

17) We know that both values of x are equal to each other, which makes everything 10x easier!

$x^{2} +x^{2} =(8\sqrt{2}) ^{2}$

(by the way we know the x values are our a and b values because they are legs! the way I like to remember the legs is that they are connected to the right angle box, and therefore support the hypothenuse)

<em>simplify</em> (╥︣﹏╥)

$2x^2=8^2(\sqrt{2} )^{2}$

$2x^2=64(2)$

$2x^2=128$

$x^{2}= 128/2$

$x^{2} =64$

x=8

18) Just pretend that the flipped triangle doesn't exist. It's parallel to the other triangle with values on it, and basically servers no purpose other than being parallel to the sister triangle :)

Anyways, since we know the hypothenuse (15) but we don't know one of our leg values (x), we're going to change our equation a bit!

$c^{2} - b^{2} = a^{2}$

It doesn't matter if you put the one leg value in a or b, just as long as you stick to that same equation you started with the entire time!

$15^{2} -6^{2} =x^{2}$

$225-36=x^{2}$

$x^{2} =189$

$x=\sqrt{189}=3\sqrt{21}$

The more you do these, the easier they'll get, so don't worry!
