Answer:
<u>The area of the larger triangle is 315 inches²</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review all the information provided for answering the questions properly:
Pre-image triangle has a base of 7 inches and a height of 10 inches
Scale used : Factor of 3
2. What is the area of the larger triangle??
For calculating the area of the larger triangle, we use the scale this way:
Base = 7 inches * 3
21 inches
Height = 10 inches * 3
30 inches
Area of the larger triangle = 1/2 (Base * Height)
Area of the larger triangle = 1/2 (21 * 30)
<u>Area of the larger triangle = 630/2 = 315 inches²</u>
Answer:
-Convenience Sampling
Step-by-step explanation:
Convenience Sampling is a sampling method that is employed simply because the samples are easy to reach or access. It is a non-probability system of sampling and not a very strong method of sampling. For a serious research such as the one being conducted by the Superintendent, who has ample time to perform the research, this is not a very good sampling method. A Convenience style of research would mean that he can just walk into a cafeteria with students and administer the test to them.
Since he has detailed information of the students, he should choose any of the other mentioned sampling techniques in the options provided to randomly select the subjects. <em>This would help to</em> prevent bias, and enable him to make generalizations with the result of the research.
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
When we write expressions for the total cost of each field visit and set them equal, we find the solution to be the ratio of the difference in fixed cost to the difference in variable cost.
y = 75 +7x . . . . . cost for x students to visit the science center
y = 50 +8x . . . . cost for x students to visit the natural history museum
__
Subtracting the first equation from the second, we get ...
0 = -25 +x
25 = x . . . . . add 25; the number of students such that costs are equal
The cost will be the same either place for 25 students.
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
Here, the fixed cost difference is 75-50=25, and the variable cost difference is 8-7=1. The ratio of these costs is ...
$25/($1 /student) = 25 students.
This relationship only holds when the higher fixed cost is associated with the lower variable cost. Charges are such that one place caters to larger numbers of students (science center), and one prefers fewer students (natural history museum).
8/2 = 4
answer: it will take Carlos 4 hours to walk 8 miles
