Answer:

Marcia is 47 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this step by step and try to visualize the situation.

• Carl: 73 inches tall

The second part of the question states that Carl's heigh is twenty-one inches less than two times Marcia's height. Add 73 + 21 to equal 94. Since Carl is 21 inches less that means that Maria is 21 inches more ( so that's why I added instead of subtracting) because we are trying to find Maria's equation.

Let x be Marcia's height

2x = 94

• The question staes that 73 is 21 inches less than two times Marcia's height which means that the equation 2x = 94 applies because 73 + 21 = 94

After simplifying the equation, we can get the answer that Marcia is 47 inches tall.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Carl  = 73

Marcia = 2x - 21 = 73

Solution

2x - 21 = 73                           Add 21 to both sides.

2x = 73 + 21                          Combine

2x = 94                                 Divide by 2

2x/2 = 94/2

x = 47

Does anyone know how to do 7a?
Olegator [25]
Calculate the circumference of the two semi circles, which equals a full circle. Then add the two sides of the track.
 Circumference is pi x diameter = 3.14 x 22.8 = 71.592, so, you would need to add 71.592 + 49.2 + 49.2  = 169.992 meters, and that would be the length of one lap of the track.

Find the mean of the data summarized in the given frequency distribution. Compare the computed mean to the actual mean of 47.3 m
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

47.4167

D. The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the distribution :

Speed(m/hr) ___ midpoint(x) ___ F ___fx

42 - 45 _______ 43.5 ________21 __ 913.5

46 - 49 _______47.5 _________15 __712.5

50 - 53 _______ 51.5 _________6 __ 309

54 - 57 _______ 55.5 ________ 4 ___ 222

58 - 61 ________59.5 ________ 2 ___ 119

The midpoint, x= sum of lower and upper boundary divided by 2

For instance, (42 + 45) / 2 = 43.5

The computed mean, Σfx / Σf = 2276 / 48 = 47.4167

Actual mean = 47.3 miles

(47.4167 - 47.3) / 47.3 * 100% = 0.24%

Which is the equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin with vertex (0, sqrt 12 ) that passes through (2 sqrt 3,6)
mina [271]

Answer:

y-intercept = a +y^2/12 term in it.

Then for y=6, you have

.. 6^2/12 -x^2/b = 1

.. 2 = x^2/b

.. b = x^2/2

If your point is (2√3, 6), then this is

.. b = (2√3)^2/2 = 12/2 = 6

Then the hyperbola's equation is

.. y^2/12 -x^2/6 = 1 . . . . . . . . selection D
