Answer:

B) 1153000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

Required

Number of households without computer in 2009

From the attachment, we have:

n=5170000 --- survey

p = 22.3\% --- proportion without computer

So, the actual number is:

Number = p * n

Number = 22.3\% * 5170000

Number = 1152910

Number \approx 1153000

<em>Hence: (B) is correct</em>

The length of a rectangle is 4 meters less than twice its width. The are of a rectangle is 70m^2. Find the dimensions of the rec
igomit [66]

Answer:

The length is 7 m

The width is 10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

length = x

width = 2x - 4

length * width = area

It is given that the area is 70 m^{2}

From there

x * (2x - 4) = 70

2x^{2} - 4x = 70

2x^{2} - 4x - 70 = 0

x^{2} - 2x - 35 = 0

Now we have a quadratic equation, which is  ax^{2} + bx + c = 0, where a \neq 0

In this equation a = 1, b = -2 and c = -35

Discriminant (D) formula is b² - 4ac

D = -2^{2}  - 4 * 1 * (-35) = 144 > 0

This discriminant is more than 0, so there are two possible x

Their formulas are  \frac{- b - \sqrt{D}  }{2a} and \frac{- b + \sqrt{D}  }{2a}

x_{1} =  \frac{- (-2) - \sqrt{144} }{2} = -5 < 0 (the length of the rectangle has to be more than 0, so we don't use this x)

x_{2} = \frac{- (-2) + \sqrt{144} }{2} = 7 > 0 (this one is right)

Calculating the dimensions

length = x = 7 (m)

width = 2x - 4 = 2 * 7 - 4 = 10 (m)

Find the value of c using the diagram below
vesna_86 [32]

Check the picture below.


notice that 146° is sitting on a flat-line, and thus it has a sibling linear angle, namely 34°.

now, recalling that a triangle has a sum of 180° for all interior angles, the missing one is 126°, and incidentally that is a corresponding angle with "c".

PLS HELPPPPPPPPPP MEEEEEEEEE
shtirl [24]

Answer:

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Both angles j and m share one common side and vertex with angle k. Angle n only shares a vertex and not a side with angle k, so it is not adjacent.
