Answer:

Area of ΔPQR is 28 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

-P is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line x-2y+2 =0)

-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b  to find the y coordinate of the point P( 0, b)

x-2y+2 = 0, subtract x and 2 from both sides

-2y = -x-2, divide by -2 both sides

y= (1/2)x +1 so b=1 and P (0, 1)

-Q  is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line 3x+y -15 =0)

-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b  to find the y coordinate of the point Q( 0, b)

3x +y -15 =0, subtract 3x and add 15 to both sides

y= -3x +15 so b=15 and Q(0,15)

-R is the intersection of the two lines so is the solution of the system of equations y= (1/2)x +1 and y= -3x +15

(1/2)x +1 =  -3x +15, add 3x and subtract1

(1/2) x+3x = 15-1, combine like terms

(7/2)x = 14 , multiply both sides by 2

7x = 28, divide both sides by 7

x= 4

y= (1/2)x +1 = (4/2) +1 =3 so R(4,3)

- the area of ΔPQR is (base *height)/2

base= 15-1= 14

height = 4

A= (14*4)/2 = 14*2 = 28

The lengths of the sides of a triangle or an extended ratio 7 8 and 9 the perimeter of the triangle is 48 cm what are the length
julsineya [31]

Answer:

14cm, 16 cm, 18 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that

= a:b: c = 7:8:9

We have to find the sum of the proportion

Sum of proportion = 7 + 8 + 9

= 24

Length of side a

7/24 × 48 = 14 cm

Length of side b

8 /24 × 48 = 16cm

Length of side a

9/24 × 48 = 18 cm

What are the lengths of the sides?

The lengths of the sides of the triangle in cm are

14cm, 16 cm, 18 cm

1/3 is greater than what other fractions
Novosadov [1.4K]
As 1/3 = 2/6 = 3/9 = 4/12

and 2/6 is greater than 1/6
    3/9 is greater than 2/9
     etc..

So

1/3 is greater than 1/6 ; 2/9 ; ...

A study of 420,076 cell phone users found that 131 of them developed cancer of the brain or nervous system. Prior to this study
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

a) 95% Confidence interval = (0.026%, 0.037%) to 3 d.p

b) The result of the 95% confidence interval does not agree with the previous rate of such cancer because the value 0.0224% does not lie within this confidence interval obtained.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Sample proportion = (131/420076) = 0.0003118483 = 0.0312%

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)

Critical value at 95% confidence interval for sample size of 420,076 is obtained from the z-tables because the sample size is large enough for the properties of the sample to approximate the population properties.

Critical value = 1.960 (from the z-tables)

Standard error = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/n]

n = sample size = 420,076

σₓ = √(0.0003118×0.999688/420076) = 0.0000272421 = 0.0000272

95% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]

CI = 0.000312 ± (1.96 × 0.0000272)

CI = 0.000312 ± 0.0000534

95% CI = (0.0002586055, 0.0003653945)

95% Confidence interval = (0.000259, 0.000365)

95% Confidence interval = (0.0259%, 0.0365%) = (0.026%, 0.037%) to 3 d.p

b) The result of the 95% confidence interval does not agree with the previous rate of such cancer because the value 0.0224% does not lie within this confidence interval obtained.

Hope this Helps!!!
