Answer:

in right angled triangle ABC

hypotenuse [h]=65ft

base[b]=xft

height[p]=63ft

by using Pythagoras law

h²=p²+b²

65²=63²+x²

x²=65²-63²

x=√256

x=16feet

so <em><u>the third side of the </u></em><em><u>sail</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>1</u></em><em><u>6</u></em><em><u>f</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

You want to estimate the number of students in your middle school school who buy school lunch. Which sample is unbiased?
Nezavi [6.7K]
A biased example: Asking students who are in line to buy lunch 

An unbiased example: Asking students who are leaving/going to lunch(<em>NOT buying </em><em>lunch</em><em />).

But in this case, the answer choices can be... confusing.
Don't panic! You're given numbers and, of course, your use of logic.

Answer choice A: 100 students grades 6-8
Answer choice B: 20-30 students any <em>one</em> grade<em></em><em>
</em>Answer choice C: 5 students
<em></em>Answer choice D: 50 students grade 8

An unbiased example would be to choose students from <em>any grade.</em> So we can eliminate choices B and D.

Now, the question wants to <em>estimate how many people at your middle school buy lunch.</em> This includes the whole entire school, and if you are going to be asking people, you aren't just going to assume that if 5 people out of 5 people you asked bought lunch, the whole school buys lunch.

So, to eliminate all bias and/or error by prediction, answer choice A, the most number of students, is your answer.

Can you simplify 37/80
Setler [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

37 is prime, so it's not possible to reduce/simplify 37/80.  37/80 is the ratio of two integers.  We could, of course, use a calculator to find the decimal equivalent:  0.4625, but this is not more accurate than the ratio 37/80.
