Answer:
20 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The end is a trapezoid
The area of a trapezoid is
A = 1/2 (b1+b2) *h
where b1 =4 and b2 =6 and h =4
A = 1/2 (4+6) *4
A = 1/2 (10)*4
=20 in^2
So the original equation is 3a+a+b=54.6 which is 4a+b=54.6 and so you get the equation:
4(8.7)+b=54.6
34.8+b=54.6
The complete question in the attached figure
we know that
The measure of the interior angle is the half-summit of the arcs that comprise it and its opposite.
so
∠ BED=(1/2)*[arc BD+arc CA]-------> (1/2)*[70+180]----> 125°
∠ BED=125°
∠ CEA=∠ BED-----> 125°
∠ AED=∠ CEB
so
2*∠ AED=360-125*2------> 2*∠ AED=110------> ∠ AED=110/2----> 55°
the answer is∠ AED= 55°
Let's figure this out as though we have no idea what the answer would be.
Step One
Find the new five numbers.
3*3, 8*3, 12*3, 17*3, 25*3
9 , 24 , 36, 51, 75
Step 2
Find the average
(9 + 24 + 36 + 51 + 75)/5 = 195/5 = 39
Step 3
Subtract the individual numbers from the average
(39 - 9) = 30
(39 -24) = 15
(39 - 36) = 3
(39 - 51) = - 12
(39 - 75) = -36
Step 4
Square the results from Step 3
30^2 = 900
15^2 = 225
3^2 = 9
(-12)^2 = 144
(-36)^2 = 1296
Step 5
Take the average of the results from step 4
(900 + 225 + 9 + 144 + 1296)/5
2574 / 5 = 514.8
Step 6
Take the square root of the result from step 5
deviation = sqrt(514.8)
deviation = 22.689
Step seven
Compare the two standard deviations.
s2/s1 = 22.689 / 7.563 = 3
Conclusion
If you are given 1 set of numbers to find a population standard deviation and you multiply each member by a, then the result will be a * the standard population deviation of the first set of numbers.
Note
Your calculator will do this as well, but you have to know how to enter the data into your calculator. That requires that you follow the directions carefully.
