Answer:

  • shortest: 13 in
  • middle: 17 in
  • longest: 23 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the shortest side. Then the longest side is (s+10) and the middle side is (s+(s+10)-19). The perimeter is the sum of the sides.

  s + (2s-9) +(s+10) = 53

  4s +1 = 53

  s = (53 -1)/4 = 13

The side lengths are ...

  • shortest: 13 in
  • middle: 17 in
  • longest: 23 in

The response to a question has three alternatives: A, B, and C. A sample of 120 responses provides 60 A, 12 B, and 48 C. Show th
zimovet [89]

Answer:

CLASS     FREQUENCIES     RELATIVE FREQUENCIES

A                        60                                 0.5

B                        12                                  0.1

C                        48                                 0.4

TOTAL              120                                  1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

the frequencies of there alternatives are;

Frequency A = 60

Frequency B = 12

Frequency C = 48

Total = 60 + 12 + 48 = 120

Now to determine our relative frequency, we divide each frequency by the total sum of the given frequencies;

Relative Frequency A = Frequency A / total = 60 / 120 = 0.5

Relative Frequency B = Frequency B / total = 12 / 120 = 0.1

Relative Frequency C = Frequency C / total = 48 / 120 = 0.4

therefore;

CLASS     FREQUENCIES     RELATIVE FREQUENCIES

A                        60                                 0.5

B                        12                                  0.1

C                        48                                 0.4

TOTAL              120                                  1
