X=2 because 3 minus 1 equals 2
using the pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse
9^2 +12^2 = x^2
81 + 144 = x^2
225 = x^2
taking the square root of each side
sqrt(225) = x
15 =x
x = 15 inches
Answer:
Lavania observed 39 fruit flies after 6 days of observation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of fruit flies on the first day of Lavania's study.
After 6 days she had nine more than five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study.
Five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study = 5x
Nine more than five times as many fruit flies as when she began the study=5x+9
The expression to find the population of fruit flies Lavania observed after 6 days is 5x+9
If she observes 20 fruit flies on the first day of the study, then x=6, then

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
20,24,25,27,31,35,38
minimum;20
medium: 27
maximum: 38
lower quartile: 24
upper quartile:35
put numbers in number order
the first number is the minimum, the last number is the maximum. the middle number "split" is the median.
quartiles are the numbers in the middle of the data you just "split"
(so like a quarter)
i may be wrong i haven't done this in years
Answer:
Multiply vector c by the scalar -1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at vector c.
It has an x component of 4 and a y component of 4.
You can write vector c as a sum of its components using unit vectors in the x direction (i) and in the y direction (j).
c = 4i + 4j
Now look at vector d, and write it also as a sum of its x and y components.
d = -2i - 2j
Now ask yourself, what operation do I do to 4 to end up with -2?
One answer is to multiply 4 by -1/2.
d = (-1/2)c = (-1/2)(4i) + (-1/2)(4j) = -2i - 2j
That worked. By multiplying vector c by the scalar -1/2, you end up with vector d.
