Answer: 10 inches per year.

If the snake is now 3 foot 9 inches, we can add up how many inches that is by converting feet to inches. 1 foot=12 inches, so 3 feet is 36 inches. We then add the 9 inches.

36+9= 45

Since the snake had already accomplished being 5 inches at birth, we can subtract 5 from 45.

This gives us 40.

Since the snake was born 4 years ago we divide 40 by 4.

40÷4= 10

Answer:

73.21% annual percentage rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 foot 9 inches = 45 inches

45 = 5(1 + r)4

9 = (1 + r)4

91/4 = 1 + r

r = 0.73205

therefore,

r = 73.21%

He vertices of square pqrs are p -4,0 q 4,3 r 7,-5 and s -1,-18.Show that the diagonals of square pqrs are congruent perpendicul
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of the square given are P(-4, 0), Q(4, 3), R(7, -5) and, S(-1, -18)

For this diagonal to be right angle the slope of the diagonal must be m1=-1/m2

So let find the slope of diagonal 1

The two points are P and R

P(-4, 0), R(7, -5)

Slope is given as

m1=∆y/∆x

m1=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m1=-5-0/7--4

m1=-5/7+4

m1=-5/11

Slope of the second diagonal

Which is Q and S

Q(4, 3), S(-1, -18)

m2=∆y/∆x

m2=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m2=(-18-3)/(-1-4)

m2=-21/-5

m2=21/5

So, slope of diagonal 1 is not equal to slope two

This shows that the diagonal of the square are not diagonal.

But the diagonal of a square should be perpendicular, this shows that this is not a square, let prove that with distance between two points

Given two points

(x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

Distance between the two points is

D=√(y2-y1)²+(x2-x1)²

For line PQ

P(-4, 0), Q(4, 3)

PQ=√(3-0)²+(4--4)²

PQ=√(3)²+(4+4)²

PQ=√9+8²

PQ=√9+64

PQ=√73

Also let fine RS

R(7, -5) and, S(-1, -18)

RS=√(-18--5)+(-1-7)

RS=√(-18+5)²+(-1-7)²

RS=√(-13)²+(-8)²

RS=√169+64

RS=√233

Since RS is not equal to PQ then this is not a square, a square is suppose to have equal sides

But I suspect one of the vertices is wrong, vertices S it should have been (-1,-8) and not (-1,-18)

So using S(-1,-8)

Let apply this to the slope

Q(4, 3), S(-1, -8)

m2=∆y/∆x

m2=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m2=(-8-3)/(-1-4)

m2=-11/-5

m2=11/5

Now,

Let find the negative reciprocal of m2

Reciprocal of m2 is 5/11

Then negative of it is -5/11

Which is equal to m1

Then, the square diagonal is perpendicular

Several years​ ago, 50​% of parents who had children in grades​ K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students r
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of parents that are satisfied with their children's education is (0.4118, 0.4618). 0.5 is not part of the confidence interval, so this represents evidence that​ parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to see if 50% = 0.5 is part of the confidence interval.

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

n = 1095, \pi = \frac{478}{1095} = 0.4365

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4365 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4365*0.5635}{1095}} = 0.4118

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4365 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4365*0.5635}{1095}} = 0.4612

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of parents that are satisfied with their children's education is (0.4118, 0.4618). 0.5 is not part of the confidence interval, so this represents evidence that​ parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed.
