A parallelogram is made up of a rectangle with a base of 12 centimeters (cm) and a height of 5 cm, and two triangles, each with

a base of 2 cm and height of 5 cm. Jeremy calculates the area of the parallelogram by multiplying the base and height of the rectangle to get 60 cm2.
Is Jeremy's answer correct? Why or why not?

Select the option that correctly answers both questions.

No, he forgot to multiply by 12 when calculating the area of the rectangle.

Yes, he correctly calculated the area of the parallelogram as b⋅h.

No, he forgot to add the area of the triangles to the area of the rectangle.

Yes, he correctly calculated the area of the parallelogram as 12bh.

No, he forgot to add the area of the triangles to the area of the rectangle.

It is said that Jeremy thought he solved for the area of the whole parallelogram correctly by multiplying the base and height of the rectangle, which is just a part of the whole parallelogram.

Jeremy’s answer is incomplete, he only calculated the area of the triangle as the answer.

This is because one way of finding an area of a parallelogram is dividing the shape into a rectangle with a triangle on each side.

The real area of the parallelogram is 70 cm^2
(with areas of each triangles added)

With that being said, the formula of a parallelogram that is said is:
A = bh
Which means a height perpendicular to the base of the whole paralleogram.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

6 jellybean

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Esmeralda received a bag of jellybean the contains regular flavored jelly beans and surprise jelly bean.

Consider the regular flavored jellybean to be = r;  &

The surprise jelly bean.= s

From the bag, there are 40 jellybeans of which 15% is surprise jellybean.

Therefore the number of expected surprise jellybeans is:

= total number of jellybeans × percentage of surprise jellybean

= 40 × (15 /100)

= 6 jellybean

If  6 surprise jellybean is presented in the bag; then the number of regular flavored jellybean = 40 - 6 = 34 regular flavored jellybean

A random sample of 10 observations was selected from a normal population distribution. The sample mean and sample standard devia
Delvig [45]

Answer:

18.0167≤x≤21.9833

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

sample size n = 10

standard deviation s = 3.2

Sample mean = 20

z-score at 95% = 1.96

Confidence Interval = x ± z×s/√n

Confidence Interval = 20 ± 1.96×3.2/√10

Confidence Interval = 20 ± (1.96×3.2/3.16)

Confidence Interval = 20 ± (1.96×1.0119)

Confidence Interval = 20 ±  1.9833

CI = {20-1.9833, 20+1.9833}

CI = {18.0167, 21.9833}

Hence the required confidence interval is 18.0167≤x≤21.9833

The function g is given in three equivalent forms.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

A) g(x)= 1/2(x-8)^2-8.   The vertex is (8, -8).

Step-by-step explanation:

A. g(x)= 1/2(x-8)^2-8 is the vertex form of the function.

In general it can be written as

f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k       where (h, k) is the vertex.

Here the vertex is (8, -8)
