Town B is 8 miles north and 17 miles west of town A. How far are
the two towns apart?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  18.8 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the straight-line distance between the towns. The distances 8 mi and 17 mi form the legs of a right triangle, whose hypotenuse is the straight-line distance.

  d² = 8² +17² = 64 +289 = 353

  d = √353 ≈ 18.8  . . . miles

The two towns are about 18.8 miles apart.

Find the interquartile range of the data. 4,6,4,2,9,1,12,7

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Order the numbers from least to greatest (1,2,4,4,6,7,9,12) then find the HIGHEST and LOWEST #.

2.)  Find the number in the very middle, which would be 4 and 6. Since it's not one number, add them both together and divide by 2 (4+6=10, 10/2=5). This will be your MEDIAN.

3.) Similar to step 2, find the number in the middle of the median and lowest number. Ignore the median in this. Since it's 2 numbers again, add both together and divide by 2 (2+4=6, 6/2 = 3, making the first interquartile 3).

4.) Repeat step 3, but instead of finding the number in the middle of the median and lowest number, use the highest number instead of the lowest. Since this also happens to be 2 numbers, repeat the same step of adding the numbers and then dividing by 2 (7+9=16, 16/2=8, making the second interquartile 8).

5.) Now, subtract both interquartiles. This should give you your answer (5).

Answer:

[tex]y = 4.5x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached table

Required

The table equation

The table shows a linear relationship.

So, we calculate the slope (m) first

Using:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Where:

[tex](x_1,y_1) =(2,9)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) =(6,27)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{27 - 9}{6 - 2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{18}{4}[/tex]

[tex]m = 4.5[/tex]

Next, the equation is calculated using:

[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = 4.5(x - 2) + 9[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]y = 4.5x - 9 + 9[/tex]

[tex]y = 4.5x[/tex]

Because Aaron, age 32, is a smoker, he must pay more for life insurance. Given that Company A charges 20% more for smokers, Company B charges 18% more for smokers, Company C charge 25% more for smokers and Company D charges 15% more for smokers, Aaron decides to buy his $250,000 policy from Company B. Which of the following statements is true? A 5-column table with 3 rows titled Annual Insurance Premiums (per 1,000 dollars of face value) 10 year term. Column 1 is labeled age with entries 30, 31, 32. Column 2 is labeled Company A with entries 1.30, 1.57, 1.86. Column 3 is labeled Company B with entries 1.29, 1.55, 1.86. Column 4 is labeled Company C with entries 1.40, 1.64, 2.07. Column 5 is labeled Company D with entries 1.49, 1.88, 2.25. a. Aaron is paying the smallest premium possible with Company B. b. Aaron is paying $93 more in premiums than he would with Company A. c. Aaron is paying $129 more in premiums than he would with Company C. d. Aaron could have chosen any company because the premiums are all the same.

Answers

Answer:

d. Aaron could have chosen any company because the premiums are all the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Going by the age of Aaron and the percentages charged by the various company due to smoking, it is safe to conclude that, the premiums are all the same. This could be seen in the table of column and rows which shows the annual insurance premiums (per 1,000 dollars of face value) over a 10 years term. The variation helps to show that, when the premium is evaluated, the are all the same.

After sitting out of a refrigerator for a while, a turkey at room temperature (69°F) is
placed into an oven. The oven temperature is 300°F. Newton's Law of Heating
explains that the temperature of the turkey will increase proportionally to the
difference between the temperature of the turkey and the temperature of the oven, as
given by the formula below:
T = Ta + (T. – T.)e-kt
Tg = the temperature surrounding the object
To = the initial temperature of the object
t= the time in hours
T = the temperature of the object after t hours
k = decay constant
The turkey reaches the temperature of 127°F after 3 hours. Using this information,
find the value of k, to the nearest thousandth. Use the resulting equation to
determine the Fahrenheit temperature of the turkey, to the nearest degree, after 5
hours.
Enter only the final temperature into the input box.

Total of 1008 deaths.

34 resulted from an automobile accident. So

Any help? I need to describe the change of the equation, in terms of it getting thinner (>) or wider (<). I don't exactly understand how to do this, can anyone explain? ​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  no change to the width of the curve

Step-by-step explanation:

Your terminology and use of symbols (>, <) are unusual, so we're not sure what your question is.

The equation represents a transformation of the parent function

  y = x²

The transformation (replacing x with (x-4)) is a translation right 4 units. This can be seen in the attached graph. The "parent function" is shown in red. Your function is shown in blue.

Nothing about this transformation changes the width of the curve, so it is neither thinner nor wider than it was originally. The description usually used if the curve is narrower or wider is "horizontal compression" or "horizontal expansion."

The curve does get wider for larger y-values. It is said to "open upward".

__

Additional comment

The symbols < and > stand for "is less than" and "is greater than", respectively. They are occasionally used as "angle brackets" to identify vectors or tokens of one sort or another. Sometimes, they are used to signify an angle when the appropriate ∠ symbol is not available. This is the first time in many years of studying math that I have seen them in the context of "thinner" and "wider."

2. On comparing the quantities we get that p=5 and b=12

3. We require the value of hypotenuse(h),

for this we apply the Pythagoreum theorum: p^2+b^2=h^2

⇒h^2=5^2+12^2

⇒h^2=25+144

⇒h^2=169

Answers

answer: C



explanation: can i have brainilestv

The measure of angle x will be 145° so option (C) will be correct.

What is an angle?

An angle is a geometry in plane geometry that is created by 2 rays or lines that have an identical terminus.

Since we lack a measurement for angular rotation, the angle is a valuable tool for measuring angular distance. For instance, a meter or an inch is a unit of measurement for linear motion.

The identical endpoint of the two rays—known as the vertex—is referenced as an angle's sides.

The angle all around the line is 360°.

The angle 165°, 50°, and x consist total of 360°.

165 + 50 + x = 360

x = 145°.

So the angle of x will be 145°.
