Answer:

(a) It is an isosceles triangle with sides of lengths: 6, 2√10, and 6 units.

(b) It is a right-angled triangle with hypotenuse side of 3√5 units, and opposite and adjacent sides of 6 and 3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) P(3,−2,−3), Q(7,0,1), R(1,2,1)

|PQ| = √[(7-3)² + (0+2)² + (1+3)²]

= √(4² + 2² + 4²)

= √36

= 6

|QR| = √[(1-7)² + (2-0)² + (1-1)²]

= √((-6)² + 2² + 0)

= √40

= 2√10

|RP| = √[(3-1)² (-2-2)² (-3-1)²]

= √[(2² + (-4)² + (-4)²]

= √36

= 6

|PQ| = |RP|

So, triangle is isosceles.

(b) P(2,−1,0), Q(4,1,1), R(4,−5,4)

|PQ| = √[(4-2)² + (1+1)² + (1-0)²]

= √(2² + 2² + 1²)

= √9

= 3

|QR| = √[(4-4)² (-5-1)² (4-1)²]

= √[(0 + (-6)² + 3²]

= √45

= 3√5

|RP| = √[(2-4)² + (-1+5)² + (0-4)²]

= √((-2)² + 4² + (-4)²)

= √36

= 6

|PQ|² + |RP|² = |QR|²

So, triangle is right-angled

Directions: The marketing research department at the Fresno Mall plans to survey teenagers about a newly developed soft drink. E
emmainna [20.7K]

The experiment is the development of a new soft drink

  • A possible outcome is "Prefer this new drink"
  • A possible event is "The event that 5 of 10 teenagers prefer this new drink to their favourite drink"
  • A new survey is about children vaccination

<h3>The experiment</h3>

From the question, we understand that:

The Fresno Mall plans to survey teenagers about a newly developed soft drink

This implies that the experiment is the survey of teenagers for a new soft drink

<h3>A possible outcome</h3>

Also from the question, we have:

The teens will be asked to compare it with their favourite soft drink

In terms of preference, one outcome could be "Prefer this new drink"

<h3>A possible event</h3>

Also from the question, we have:

The teens will be asked to compare it with their favourite soft drink

In terms of preference, one event could be "The event that 5 of 10 teenagers prefer this new drink to their favourite drink"

<h3>A new survey</h3>

Using the question as a guide, a survey could be:

<em>In a survey of 500 randomly selected adults, 68% of the respondents think that the government should require parents to have their children vaccinated.</em>

Here, we have:

  • Experiment: Children vaccination
  • Outcome: Outcome that a parent supports parent should have their children vaccinated
  • Event: Event that 5 of 10 individuals think that the government should require parents to have their children vaccinated

<h3>Importance of probability</h3>

Probabilities, in this scenario are used to determine the proportions of outcomes, events and it is used to make informed decisions

A city has a population of 250,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 6%. What will the population be after
irinina [24]

Answer:

503,049

Step-by-step explanation:

250,000 × 1.06^12 is the formula.

You take the percentage which is 6% and you add 1 to it.

So, you get 1.06

Then you take the 1.06 and raise it to the number of years which is 12.

1.06^12

Then you multiply that number to the base number which is 250,000 and get 503,049.

Hope this helps!
