Using cosine, we can find the hypotenuse by using the formula below;

hypotenuse = adjacent / cos ∅

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>Trigonometric ratios:</h3>

Trigonometric ratios are ratios of sides of a right angled triangle.
The simplest ratios are cosine, sine and tangent.

Using cosine, the hypotenuse side can be solved as follows:

cosine ∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse

cross multiply

hypotenuse cos ∅ = adjacent

divide both sides by cos ∅

hypotenuse cos ∅ / cos ∅ = adjacent / cos ∅

Therefore,

hypotenuse = adjacent / cos ∅

1: -5 = 3m + c
2: -2 = 0 + c

From equation 2, we knew c = -2
So we sub into equation 1 and got the value of m

-5 = 3m - 2
m = -1

The equation of line is y = -x - 2

3 connecting lines are shown. Line D F is horizontal. Line D E is about half the length of line D F. Line F E is about one-third

The inequality that explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle is ED + EF < DF

<h3>Inequalities </h3>

From the question, we are to determine which of the given inequalities explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle

From the given information,

Line DE is about half the length of line DF

That is,

ED = 1/2 DF

Also,

Line FE is about one-third of the length of line DF

That is,

EF = 1/3 DF

Then, we can write that

ED + EF = 1/2DF + 1/3DF

ED + EF = 5/6 DF

Since,

5/6 DF < DF

Then,

ED + EF < DF

Hence, the inequality that explains why the three segments cannot be used to construct a triangle is ED + EF < DF

Suppose these show number of hours each student in a class slept last night:

Olin [163]

⊂ Hey, rosedalphinis ⊃

Answer:

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ Given:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suppose these show number of hours each student in a class slept last night:

8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6

What is the mean of these numbers (rounded to the nearest tenth)?

What is the median?

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7.5 hours

Mean: 7 hours; Median 6.9 hours

Mean: 7.2 hours; Median 7 hours

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

⇒ Solution~:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's first define "Median".

You may be wondering "What is median/What is mean?".

When it asking for "Mean" It asking for the average.

When it asking for "Median" It asking for the middle number.

The formula for "Mean" is : M = sum of the terms/number of terms

According to the given we have;

8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6

Let's first find the "Mean":

First, add all the number together.

8 + 4 + 8 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

12 + 8 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

20 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

27 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

34 + 9 + 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

43+ 6 + 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

49+ 5 + 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

54+ 10 + 7 + 6 + 6

64 + 7 + 6 + 6

71+ 6 + 6

77 + 6

= 83

Now let's count how many numbers of hours each student in a class slept.

8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6 = 12

Now 83 divide by 12:

83/12 = 6.9166666666667 {Round}

6.9166666666667 = 6.9

Therefore, Mean = 6.9

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next, Let's find the "Median":

To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle.

⇒ 8, 4, 8, 7, 7, 9, 6, 5, 10, 7, 6, 6

⇒ 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

Now we have them in order:

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

Then, we find the middle number:

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10

Now You see that there two's 7 left.

If there is an even number of numbers add the two middles and divide by 2

Thus,

7 + 7 = 14

14/2 = 7

Therefore, Median = 7.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

According to the solving above we can conclude that:

Mean: 6.9 hours; Median 7 hours
