Answer:
The length of side of largest square is 15 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The given suares are when joined in the way as shown in picture their sides form a right agnled triangle.
Area of square 1 and perimeter of square 2 will be used to calculate the sides of the triangle.
So,
<u>Area of square 1: 81 square inches</u>
<u>Perimeter of square 2: 48 inches</u>
We can see that a right angled triangle is formed.
Here
Base = 12 inches
Perpendicular = 9 inches
And the side of largest square will be hypotenuse.
Pythagoras theorem can be used to find the length.
Hence,
The length of side of largest square is 15 inches
Answer:
6 hot dogs, 2 drinks
Step-by-step explanation:
let y = number of hot dogs
let x = number of drinks
system:
y = 3x
4.5y + 2.25x = 31.50 (standard form: y = -1/2x + 7)
if you graph the system, lines intersect at (2, 6)
Answer:
1899
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 3234
Standard deviation = 871
Percentage of newborns who weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams:
1492 = 3234 - 2*871
So 1492 is two standard deviations below the mean.
4976 = 3234 + 2*871
So 4976 is two standard deviations above the mean.
By the Empirical Rule, 95% of newborns weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams.
Out of 1999:
0.95*1999 = 1899
So the answer is 1899
(12½) ÷ (⅙) = (25/2) ÷ (⅙) = (25/2) × (6/1) =75
