<h3>Answer:  A) 52 square inches</h3>

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

Explanation:

a = 8, b = 13, and c = 15 are the sides of the triangle

s = (a+b+c)/2 = (8+13+15)/2 = 18 is the semi-perimeter, aka half the perimeter.

Those values are then plugged into Heron's Formula below

A = \sqrt{s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)}\\\\A = \sqrt{18*(18-8)*(18-13)*(18-15)}\\\\A = \sqrt{18*(10)*(5)*(3)}\\\\A = \sqrt{2700}\\\\A = \sqrt{900*3}\\\\A = \sqrt{900}*\sqrt{3}\\\\A = 30\sqrt{3}\\\\A \approx 51.9615\\\\A \approx 52\\\\

The triangular plaque has an area of approximately 52 square inches.

Butoxors [25]

Answer: (21.541,\ 23.059)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size : n=240 , which is a large sample , so we apply z-test .

Sample mean : \overline{x}=22.3

Standard deviation : \sigma= 6

Significance level : \alpha=1-0.95=0.05

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=1.960

Now, a confidence interval at the 95% level of confidence will be :-

22.3\pm(1.960)\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{240}}\\\\\approx22.3\pm0.759\\\\=(22.3-0.759,\ 22.3+0.759)\\\\=(21.541,\ 23.059)

The equation V equals pi r squared h, where r represents radius and h represents height, is used to find the volume of a _______
baherus [9]

Answer:

Volume of a cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

V=\pi r^2 h

Where

r is the radius

h is the height

This equation is used to find the volume of a cylinder.

For example, a cylinder having radius of 7 units and height of 10 units, its volume will be :

V=\dfrac{22}{7}\times 7^2\times 10\\\\V=1540\ \text{unit}^2

So, the given equation is used to find the volume of a cylinder.

The spinner shown is divided into congruent sections that are labeled from 1 through 7. If the spinner is spun one time, what is
adoni [48]

Answer:

3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of possible results are;

1, 2 , 3 , 4 , 5, 6 , 7 = 7

odd numbers here are;

1, 3 , 5 and 7

non-odd numbers are 2, 4 and 6

So the section not labeled with an odd number is 3

Hence the probability here is that;

3/7

Bond [772]

the boiling point of jet fuel is 329 degrees F. Rounded to the nearest degree, what is the temperature in degrees Celcius? Use the Formula: C = 5/9(F - 32), where C represents degrees celcius, and F represents degrees fahrenheit.

A). 165 degrees C

B). 183 degrees C

C). 201 degrees C

D). 535 degrees C

Solve:

C = 5/9(F - 32)

Simplify both sides:

C = 5/9(329 - 32) = 0

Simplify:

5/9

Equation at end of step 1:

C - (5/9 * 297) = 0

C - 165 = 0

Solve single variable:

C - 165 = 0

Add 165 to both sides:

C = 165

Therefore, Your answer would be, Letter Choice (A), (C = 165 degrees C

Hope that helps!!!!! Have a great day!!!!! : )
