Answer:

B. 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of a rectangle: base × height/ length × width

To find the height, divide the area by the base.

$96/4=24in$

$formula=base *height/length*width$

$4*24=96in^2$

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 10x - y = 2?

matrenka [14]

Answer:

D. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the equation, we first need to put the equation into slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

So first, we need to get y by itself.

10x-y=2

Subtract 10x from both sides.

-y=-10x+2

Then, divide -1 on both sides.

y=10x-2

Slope=10

Which of the following equations are linear or nonlinear?

gavmur [86]

Answer:

1. Linear

2. Nonlinear

3. Linear

4. Linear

5. Nonlinear

Step-by-step explanation:

Thies equation are in the form y=mx+b. Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. To solve them you neeed to see the power x is taken to. If the power on x is bigger than 1 than one, then it will curve at some point. This makes 2 and 5 nonlinear

What is the quotient? Negative StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction divided by negative one-fourth

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 fractions.

1st fraction is Negative StartFraction 3 over 8

i.e.

$-\dfrac{3}{8}$

2nd fraction is negative one-fourth

i.e.

$-\dfrac{1}{4}$

We have to find the quotient when 1st fraction is divided by 2nd fraction.

<u>Definition</u> of quotient is given as:

Quotient is the result obtained when one number is divided by other number.

$-\dfrac{3}{8} \div -\dfrac{1}{4} \text{ is to be calculated.}$

$\div$ is converted to $\times$ and the 2nd fraction is reversed i.e.

if the fraction is $\frac{p}{q}$ it becomes $\frac{q}{p}$ and the sign $\div$ is changed to $\times$ .

Solving above:

$-\dfrac{3}{8} \times -\dfrac{4}{1}\\ \text {Multiplication/Division of 2 negative number gives a positive number}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}$

So, the quotient is $\frac{3}{2}$ .

The director of the library calculates that 29% of the library's collection is checked out. If the director is right, what is th

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 412 books would differ from the population proportion by less than 4% is P=0.9255.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population's proportion is $\pi=0.29$

If we take a sample of 412 books (n=412), we have a standard deviation of the sampling distribution of:

$\sigma_M=\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.29*0.71}{412}}=\sqrt{0.0005} =0.0224$

We have to calculate the probabilty that the sample proportion will be between 0.25 and 0.33.

$z_1=(0.25-0.29)/0.0224=-0.04/0.0224=-1.7857\\\\z_2=1.7857\\\\\\P(0.25$
