Answer:

b = 4 inches and h = 14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The area of a triangle, A = 28 sq inches

Height is twice less than 4 times the base.

H = 4b-2, b is base

We know that,

The area of a triangle is given by :

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}bh\\\\28=\dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times (4b-2)\\\\56=4b^2-2b\\\\28=2b^2-b\\\\b=4\ inches,-3.5\ inches$

Base = 4 inches

Height = 4(4)-2

= 14 inches

Hence, this is the required solution.

Use function notation to represent the area of a circle whose circumference is 136cm

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$A(\frac{68}{\pi})=\frac{4624}{\pi}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given circle has circumference 136cm.

The formula for circumference is $C=2\pi r$

This implies that:

$136=2\pi r$

$\frac{136}{2\pi}=r$

$\frac{68}{\pi}=r$

The area of a circle is given as $A(r)=\pi r^2$

When $r=\frac{68}{\pi}$

$A(\frac{68}{\pi})=\pi*(\frac{68}{\pi})^2$

$A(\frac{68}{\pi})=\pi*\frac{(68)^2}{\pi^2}$

$A(\frac{68}{\pi})=\frac{4624}{\pi}$

Researchers wanted to determine if there was an association between the level of satisfaction of an individual and their risk of

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To see if there is an association between the variables:

"Level of satisfaction of an individual"

"Risk of diabetes of an individual"

The researchers studied 1621 people over 5 years.

Observations recorded:

Interviews of daily lives and hassles and hypothetical situations that were studied to assess their emotions.

Determination, if in the course of these 5 years the individuals experienced any type of diabetes.

Conclusion "Satisfied individuals are less likely to have diabetes"

a) This is a prospective cohort study.

In this type of study, a group of individuals that share the same characteristics is observed over some time, recording the events of interest.

b) Considering that the experiment concluded that "satisfaction" reduces the "risk of diabetes", we can determine that the response variable is "Risk of diabetes of an individual" and the explanatory variable is "Level of satisfaction of an individual".

Remember, the explanatory variable is the one considered to have a direct effect over the response variable.

c) "the research team also hasn't ruled out that a common factor like genetics could be causing both the emotions and the lung cancer."

There is a new variable that may affect the experiment. Be "genetic factor" the new variable and it affects directly "emotions and lung cancer", we can say that if some of those individuals are genetically predisposed to have lung cancer, this affects their emotions (satisfaction) and therefore, modifying their risk of having diabetes.

If this is so, then the genetic factor could be a lurking variable affecting directly the result of the observational experiment. Then the correct answer is:

A. The researchers may be concerned with confounding that occurs when the effects of two or more explanatory variables are not separated or when some explanatory variables were not considered in a study, but that affects the value of the response variable.

I hope it helps!

Please help mee pleaseee

nalin [4]

Answer:

The exact answer in terms of radicals is $x = 5*\sqrt[3]{25}$

The approximate answer is $x \approx 14.62009$ (accurate to 5 decimal places)

===============================================

Work Shown:

Let $y = \sqrt[5]{x^3}$

So the equation reduces to -7 = 8-3y

Let's solve for y

-7 = 8-3y

8-3y = -7

-3y = -7-8 ... subtract 8 from both sides

-3y = -15

y = -15/(-3) ... divide both sides by -3

y = 5

-----------

Since $y = \sqrt[5]{x^3}$ and y = 5, this means we can equate the two expressions and solve for x

$y = 5$

$\sqrt[5]{x^3} = 5$

$x^3 = 5^5$ Raise both sides to the 5th power

$x^3 = 3125$

$x = \sqrt[3]{3125}$ Apply cube root to both sides

$x = \sqrt[3]{125*25}$

$x = \sqrt[3]{125}*\sqrt[3]{25}$

$x = \sqrt[3]{5^3}*\sqrt[3]{25}$

$x = 5*\sqrt[3]{25}$

$x \approx 14.62009$

Deon has a pizza with a diameter

OverLord2011 [107]

The square box is enough to fit the pizza with a diameter of 10 inches inside. Since the area of the square box is more than the area of the pizza, the pizza fits easily in the square box.

<h3>What is the area of the circle and the square?</h3>

The area of the circle is

Ac = πr² = πd²/4 sq. units

Where r is the radius and d is the diameter of the circle.

The area of the square is given by

As = s² sq. units

Where s is the length of the side of a square.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

It is given that a pizza(in a circular shape) with a diameter d = 10 in is to be placed in a square box of the same length as the diameter of the pizza.

So,

The area of pizza is

Ap = Ac = πd²/4 sq. units

= π(10)²/4

= 25π

= 78.54 sq. in

Then, the area of the square box with the length same as the diameter of the pizza is,

As = d²

= 10²

= 100 sq. in

Since the area of the square is more than the area of the pizza (100 sq. inch > 78.54 sq. inch), the pizza easily fits into the square box.
