3/1 is your slope for that
Answer:
There are approximately 171 families in the sample.
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentile meaning:
When a value V is said to be in the xth percentile of a set, x% of the values in the set are lower than V and (100-x)% of the values in the set are higher than V.
Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 23 hours or less for the week. The 14th percentile of the data is 23 hours.
This means that 24 is 14% of the total number of families.
Approximately how many families are in the sample?
Using a rule of three.
24 - 0.14
x - 1
0.14x = 24
x = 24/0.14
x = 171.4
Rounding to the nearest integer
There are approximately 171 families in the sample.
<span>Length = 1200, width = 600
First, let's create an equation for the area based upon the length. Since we have a total of 2400 feet of fence and only need to fence three sides of the region, we can define the width based upon the length as:
W = (2400 - L)/2
And area is:
A = LW
Substitute the equation for width, giving:
A = LW
A = L(2400 - L)/2
And expand:
A = (2400L - L^2)/2
A = 1200L - (1/2)L^2
Now the easiest way of solving for the maximum area is to calculate the first derivative of the expression above, and solve for where it's value is 0. But since this is supposedly a high school problem, and the expression we have is a simple quadratic equation, we can solve it without using any calculus. Let's first use the quadratic formula with A=-1/2, B=1200, and C=0 and get the 2 roots which are 0 and 2400. Then we'll pick a point midway between those two which is (0 + 2400)/2 = 1200. And that should be your answer. But let's verify that by using the value (1200+e) and expand the equation to see what happens:
A = 1200L - (1/2)L^2
A = 1200(1200+e) - (1/2)(1200+e)^2
A = 1440000+1200e - (1/2)(1440000 + 2400e + e^2)
A = 1440000+1200e - (720000 + 1200e + (1/2)e^2)
A = 1440000+1200e - 720000 - 1200e - (1/2)e^2
A = 720000 - (1/2)e^2
And notice that the only e terms is -(1/2)e^2. ANY non-zero value of e will cause this term to be non-zero and negative meaning that the total area will be reduced. Therefore the value of 1200 for the length is the best possible length that will get the maximum possible area.</span>
Ok I will add u to if you can help me with my test
