Step-by-step explanation:

Length of base = 20cm

We will take the base as "b"

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

So the total area = 360 square feet

360 square feet = 1/2 x b x 36

360 = 36b /2

360 = 18b

b = 360/18

b = 20

So, Length of base = 20 cm

Let's check:

1/2 x 20 x 36 = 360

Which is the correct area!

Hope this helps!

Chanda can bake and decorate 72 cookies in 2.5 hours. At this rate,how long will it take her to bake and decorate 108 cookies?

Hello there! A. 3.75 hours is your answer.

Okay, so lets start by finding the unit rate. To find the unit rate, we can use this formula: total ÷ time = unit rate.

total (72 cookies) ÷ time (2.5 hours) = unit rate. (how many cookies she can decorate and bake in an hour)

72 ÷ 2.5 = 28.8 cookies an hour

Now that we have this information, replace the 180 cookies in for the total number and use algebra to solve.

180 cookies ÷ x time = 28.8

Since 180 is a little more than 2 times 72, A would best fit since 3.75 is much closer to 2.5 than the other options. To check this, we can place 3.75 in for x in 180 ÷ x = 28.8.

180 ÷ 3.75 = 28.8.

So, this is your correct answer.

Answer:

\bar{x}=61.98

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample mean \bar{x} is a point estimate of the population mean μ.

Given the heights of the 6 tomato plants sample below:

55.6, 59.4, 59.9, 62.9, 64.9, 69.2

Point Estimate,

\bar{x}=\dfrac{55.6+59.4+59.9+62.9+64.9+69.2}{6} \\=\dfrac{371.9}{6} \\\bar{x}=61.98
