7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, kids are divided into 8 total parts.

7 - 1 = 6 more parts that are boys. The 48 extra boys are those 6 parts.

48/6 = 8 boys per part

All parts have the equal number of kids, so one part girls also has 8.

There are 8 girls (and 56 boys. 8:56 = 1:7).

After rewriting all sets of data from smaller to greater, I found that the last series is the one that is represented by the plot box:

79,86,88,88,92,98,100,106,115,136

Why? Because The median is 95 (like the box)

because the outliers are >  115  (up to 136)
 because their is no outlier on the left by the mini value of 79

The lines y1 = 2x - 6, y2 = -3x + 4, y3 = -1/2x + 4 intersect to form the sides of a right triangle. Find the perimeter and area
tino4ka555 [31]

The area and perimeter of the triangle is 2/5 square units and (2√10 + 4√5) / 5 units

<h3>Determining the perimeter and area of the triangle giving line equation</h3>

In order to determine the area and perimeter of the lines, we will plot the giving lines, determine the point of intersection and then use the Pythagoras theorem to determine the dimension of the right triangle.

The points of intersection of the line are;

(x₁, y₁) = (- 0.4, 5.2),

(x₂, y₂) = (-0.8, 4.4),

(x₃, y₃) = (0, 4)

Determine the base

b² = c² -a²

b = √(-0.8)² + (4 - 4.4)²

b = 2√5 / 5

Determine the height

h = √((- 0.4) - (- 0.8))² + (5.2 - 4.4)²

height = 2√5 / 5

For the hypotenuse

r = √2 · b

r = 2√10 / 5

<h3>Determine the Perimeter and area</h3>

Perimeter = s1+s2+s3

Perimeter = 2√5 / 5 + 2√5 / 5 + 2√10 / 5

Perimeter = (2√10 + 4√5) / 5 units

<u>For the area</u>

area = 1/2* base * height

A = 0.5 · (2√5 / 5) · (2√5 / 5)

A = 2/5 square units

Hence the area and perimeter of the triangle is 2/5 square units and (2√10 + 4√5) / 5 units

Last week, steph curry made 56 free throws. if his free throw percentage is 80%, how many free throws did he attempt?
Finger [1]
80% of what is 56
0.80x = 56
x = 56 / 0.80
x = 70....so he attempted 70 free throws
