Answer:
ehhh- i give up
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
26.2% of smokers,when given this treatment, would refrain from smoking for at least 6 months.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, we have that:
935 smokers received the treatment(nicotine patch).
After 6 months, 245 of them were not smoking.
Assuming it is reasonable to regard this sample as representative of all smokers, estimate the percentage of all smokers who, when given this treatment, would refrain from smoking for at least 6 months.
This percentage is 245/935 = 0.2620.
26% of smokers,when given this treatment, would refrain from smoking for at least 6 months.
Hey there :)
We know the area formula of a triangle

We are given:
The area = 56 m²
The base = let p represent this
The height = 9 m less than the base = p - 9
Apply the formula
56 =

× ( p ) × ( p - 9 )
56 =

× ( p² - 9p )
Divide

on both sides
56 ÷

= p² - 9p
112 = p² - 9p
Bring 112 to the other side and equate equation to 0
p² - 9p - 112
Factorise { Sum = -9 , Product = - 112 , therefore suitable factors = - 16 × 7 )
( p - 16 )( p + 7 ) = 0
↓ ↓
p = 16 p = - 7 ← Reject p = - 7 since length cannot be negative
So, the length of the base is 16 mCheck:
56 m² =

× 16 × ( 16 - 9 )
56 m² = 8 × 7
56 m² = 56 m²
