Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the question?

Amount of change = 5.5-3.1 = 2.4 inches

Percentage change = 2.4/3.1 ≈ 77.4% increase

1. From the statement select the related given statement.
solong [7]

1. Line l; point P not on l.( Take a line I and mark point P outside it or on the line.So from point P there are infinite number of lines out of which only one line is parallel to line I. Suppose you are taking point P on line I, from that point P also infinite number of lines can be drawn but only one line will be coincident or parallel to line I.

2. Plane R is parallel to plane S; Plane T cuts planes R and S.(Imagine you are sitting inside a room ,consider two walls opposite to each other as two planes R and S and floor on which you are sitting as third plane T ,so R and S are parallel and plane T is cutting them so in this case their lines of intersect .But this is not possible in each and every case, suppose R and S planes are parallel to each other and Plane T cuts them like two faces of a building and third plane T is stairs or suppose it is in slanting position i.e not parallel to R and S so in this case also lines of intersection  will be parallel.

3. △ABC with midpoints M and N.( As you know if we take a triangle ABC ,the mid points of sides AB and AC being M and N, so the line joining the mid point of two sides of a triangle is parallel to third side and is half of it.

4.Point B is between points A and C.( Take a line segment AC. Mark any point B anywhere on the line segment AC. Three possibilities arises

(i) AB > BC (ii) AB < BC  (iii) AB = BC

Since A, B,C are collinear .So in each case  AB + BC =AC

What’s the equation when the line is (6,5) and slope is 2/3
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

y=2/3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

using the slope intercept formula, y=mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y intercept. So we get the equation y=2/3x+b, because the slope is given, then you use the given point and substitute it into the equation, 5=2/3(6)+b which you can solve and you will get 5=4+b, b =1, then you add 1 to your original equation to get your answer, y=2/3x+1

A, B &amp; C form the vertices of a triangle.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

BC = 17.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since CAB = 90º, this is a right triangle.

The triangle format is given below:

C

A           B

We have that AB = 8.6, and angle B measures 60º.

Length of BC:

BC is the hypotenyse.

Side AB is adjacent to angle B = 60º.

In a right triangle, angle \alpha, it's adjacent side with length s and the hypotenuse h are related by the cosine of the angle, that is:

\cos{\alpha} = \frac{s}{h}

In this question, we have an angle of 60º, with has cosine 0.5. We also have that side AB = s = 8.6, and the hypotenuse h is side BC. So

\cos{\alpha} = \frac{s}{h}

0.5 = \frac{8.6}{h}

0.5h = 8.6

h = \frac{8.6}{0.5}

h = 17.2

BC = 17.2.

^please answer, thanks in advance ^
Rudiy27

Answer:

There is not enough information to determine the mean, the median is 28.

There is not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation, the interquartile range is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The box plot given has a skewed distribution, this means that both the mean and median values are not the same. From a box plot, the median value Can be obtained as the point in between the box.

From the box plot given, the marked point in between the box is 28 cm

Hence, Median = 28 cm

The mean cannot be inferred from the skewed box plot.

There is also not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation ;

The interquartile range:

(Q3 - Q1)

Q3 = upper quartile, the endpoint of the box = 40

Q1 = the starting point of the box = 22

IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = 40 - 22 = 18
