If you read the question you can find that the question is incomplete. By googling it you can find the complete question here: brainly.com/question/11917098.

The area of the window is 182 square inches.

Option: B.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data, we are given with the length of the upper side of the trapezoid, the right side's bottom excluded the length upper side's length and height of the trapezoid.

Area of an isosceles trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( a+b) h.

where a is the length of upper side of the trapezoid, b is the length of lower side of the trapezoid and h is the height of the trapezoid.

a= 12 inches.

h= 13 inches.

We are given only with the right side's length of base excluding the length of upper side.

So we have to calculate b= left side + upper side+ right side.

b= 2+12+2.

b= 16 inches.

Area of an isosceles trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2}$ (12+16)(13).

= $\frac{1}{2}$ (28)(13).

= 14(13).

= 182 square inches.

∴ Area of the window= 182 square inches.

which of the following temperatures is most precise? A) 45 degrees. B) 89.7 degrees. C) 80 degrees. D) 32.45 degrees

xxTIMURxx [149]

32.45 is most precise . Precise means how many points after decimal is reached. Accurate means how close your measurement of a value is that to the true value. Eg :Say 35cm is the measure of length of a body and a person got the measurement to be 34 . Another person2 got the measurement to be 32.88 . So in this case the first person has an accurate answer as he is close to the true value 35 , but person2 is more precise as he has two decimal places.

Carter draws one side of equilateral △PQR on the coordinate plane at points P(-3,2) and Q(5,2). Which ordered pair is a possible

Law Incorporation [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!!

Let me simply explain you about it.

We generally use the distance formula to get the points.

let the point R be (x,y)

As it an equilateral triangle it must have equal distance.

now,

let's find the distance of PQ,

we have, distance formulae is;

$pq = \sqrt{( {x2 - x1)}^{2} + ( {y2 - y1)}^{2} }$

$or \: \sqrt{( {5 + 3)}^{2} + ( {2 - 2)}^{2} }$

By simplifying it we get,

$8$

Now,

again finding the distance between PR,

$pr = \sqrt{( {x2 - x1}^{2} + ( {y2 - y1)}^{2} }$

or,

$\sqrt{( {x + 3)}^{2} + ( {y - 2)}^{2} }$

By simplifying it we get,

$= \sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 6x - 4y + 13 }$

now, finding the distance of QR,

$qr = \sqrt{( {x - 5)}^{2} + ( {y - 2)}^{2} }$

or, by simplification we get,

$\sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} - 10x - 4y + 29 }$

now, equating PR and QR,

$\sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 6x - 4y + 13} = \sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} - 10x - 4y + 29 }$

we cancelled the root ,

${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 6x - 4y + 13 = {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} -10x - 4y + 29$

or, cancelling all like terms, we get,

6x+13= -10x+29

16x=16

x=16/16

Therefore, x= 1.

now,

equating, PR and PQ,

$\sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 6x - 4y + 13 } = 8}$

cancel the roots,

${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 6x - 4y + 13 = 8$

now,

(1)^2+ y^2+6×1-4y+13=8

or, 1+y^2+6-4y+13=8

y^2-4y+13+6+1=8

or, y(y-4)+20=8

or, y(y-4)= -12

either, or,

y= -12 y=8

Therefore, y= (8,-12)

by rounding off both values, we get,

x= 1

y=(8,-12)

So, i think it's (1,8) is your answer..

Hope it helps...

the amount of food a dog should eat depends on the weight of the dog. 1. identify the independent and dependent variables in thi

fomenos

Here, we are required to identify the dependent and independent variables, the dependency relationship in the situation.

The independent and dependent variables are the weight of the dog and the amount of food it should respectively.
The dependency relationship is thus; The amount of food a dog should eat is a function of the weight of the dog
The dependency relationship using the function notation is; f(x) = {function of x}.

The independent variable in this situation is the weight of the dog while the amount of food the dog should eat is the dependent variable. The above is evident from the statement; The amount of food a dog should eat depends on the weight of the dog.

According to the premise given in the question, it is evident that the dependency relationship is;. The amount of food a dog should eat is a function of the weight of the dog

The dependency relationship can be written mathematically using the function notation as;. f(x) = {function of x}.
