Answer:

  • base: 2.18 m
  • height: 7.35 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the base of the triangle in meters. Then the height is ...

  h = 3 +2b

and the area is ...

  A = 1/2bh

  8 = 1/2(b)(3 +2b)

  16 = 3b +2b^2 . . . . . . . multiply by 2 and eliminate parentheses

  2(b^2 +3/2b + (9/16)) = 16 + 9/8 . . . . . . complete the square

  2(b +3/4)^2 = 17.125

  (b +3/4)^2 = 8.5625 . . . . . divide by 2

  b + 0.75 = √8.5625 ≈ 2.9262

  b = -0.75 +2.9262 = 2.1762

  h = 3 +2b = 7.3523

The base is about 2.18 meters and the height is about 7.35 meters.

Jen measured the growth of a sunflower in one week it grew 2 and 1 half in
Pie
So you basically add the amount it grew each week. So week one is 2 and 1/2, week two is 2 and 3/4 and week three is 3 and 1/4. to make things simpler, add week two and three which gets you 6inches, then add week one, to get 8 and a half inches.

The owner of a large restaurant is considering a new “no tipping” policy and wants to survey a sample of employees. The policy w
Stolb23 [73]

A) The strata to be used in this survey by the employer is; <em><u>Type of Staff</u></em>

B) <em>Stratified Random Sampling</em> will be preferred because the opinions of <em><u>the staffs on the tipping policy</u></em> may be the same within each type but differ across the different <u><em>types of staffs.</em></u>

  • A stratified random sampling is a type of sampling that divides a population into groups known as strata.

Now, from the question, we see that after adding a 20% to the cost of food and beverages, that the additional revenue will be distributed equally among the kitchen and server staffs.

This means the strata here will be the type of staff because the opinions of the staffs on the tipping policy may be the within each type but differ across both types of staffs.
