Answer:

(i) Triangle ABC and triangle ADE are similar triangles. Hence, their ratios will be same.

Ratio of DE to BC is 4:6 => 2:3

To find area, we need to raise the ratio of length to power 2

(2/3)² = 16/x

4/9 = 16/x

x = (16*9)/4

x = 36cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 36cm²

(ii) Ratio of DE to BC is 4:8 => 1:2

(1/2)² = 25/x

1/4 = 25/x

x = 25*4

x = 100cm²

Therefore, area of triangle ABC is 100cm²

I'm not sure about the third question, sorry

Answer:

Unsure, take a look at the visualisation:

Replace the (dotcom) with ".com"    (   links are not allowed :(   )

Explanation:

None of the points look as though they are an outlier from the line of linear regression, although (29,62) looks furthest from the line so could be a possible answer although I would probably say there is no outlier.

How to know when to use which probability distribution?
worty [1.4K]
57% of students studied, which decomposes into  52% who both studied and saw an increase in their exam grade  5% who both studied and did Not see an increase in their exam grade The percentages above are relative to the whole population of 100 students, to get the requested probability, recall that:   One way to find out the probability of an event is to  Take the ratio of the number of times the event happened, over the total number of times the event could have happened.    Total number of times the event happened:    52 = 52% of 100 students studied and saw an increase in their exam grade  Total number of times the event could have happened:    57 = 57% of 100 students studied

a skateboard company is putting together boards and wheels to make skateboards. the company has a box of 36 boards. they need 4
vodka [1.7K]
If you multiply 36 by four since there are 4 wheels for skateboard
you will get 144.  That number is the total number of wheels you need to order and since they come in packs of 20 what you need to do is divide 144 by 20 and you will get 7.2.  So obviously you can't order 7.20 packs of wheels so this means that 8 packs of wheels must be bought in order to ensure that all of the skateboards get wheels on them.
The answer is 8.
