An average adult giraffe is 18 feet tall. A newborn giraffe is about 6 feet tall/ Kayla is building a model of a mother giraffe and her newborn. She wants the model to be no more than 17 inches high.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mother = 17 inches and then Newborn = 5 (2/3) or 5.66666666667 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

I was sort of guessing based on your question what you were looking for. How I solved this is we know that since the average adult giraffe is 18 feet tall and the average newborn giraffe is 6 feet tall, then the adult giraffe is about 3 times as tall as the average newborn giraffe so the ratio is 3:1 adult: newborn. So with the mother at 17 inches, then since the newborn giraffe is, on average, 3 times smaller than the mother, it is therefore 17/3 = 5.666667 or 5 and 2/3s.

Answer the following about 4,240/8 estimating.

Answers

Answer: The answer to the equation 4,240/8 = 530

Step-by-step explanation:

4,240 divided by 8 = 530

4,000 divided by 8 = 500

4,800 divided by 8 = 600

(For part B 500 would be an underestimate of the answer to 4,240/8 and 600 would be an overestimate of 4,240/8)

D. y = 1/3x to the power of 2
E. y = -x

Answers

Answer:

B, C, and E

The reason B, C, and E are the answer's is because the equation of a linear equation is y= mx+b. B, C, and E are written this way. We can eliminate A and D because They are quadratic equations, because the X is squared.

Eric cut a piece of wood into the shape of a trapezoid. The trapezoid has base lengths of 8 inches and 9 inches. The height of the trapezoid is 13 inches.

What is the area of the trapezoid?

Answers

Answer:

110.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A=(a+b)/2 h

A = (8+9)/2 * 13

A = 17/2 * 13

A = 110.5 inches

Hope this helped

Answer
110.5

Explanation
The formula for a trapezoid is
(B1+b2)h
A=—————-
2

So your first base is 8 and your second base is 9 so you first add those up to get 17 afterwards you multiply by your height, 13, once you get the answer of 221 you then divide by 2 to get the answer 110.5

It was 88°F hotter in Stockton.

If it was 0°F in New York, Stockton would have been greater by 83°F; as it is -5, add 5 to 83.
As the problem is subtraction, negative.
If the quantity is in negative, like -5, -7, -120; you have to add.

If a square has an area of 100ft², what is the length of one of the sides.

Answers

Answer:

The length of one side is 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the area of a square can be found through the formula side x side or [tex]side^{2}[/tex]. You can find the length of one side by finding the square root of the area. You would get both a positive and negative value for the square root but you want a positive value because a length cannot be negative.

What is the slope of the table.

Answers

Answer:

slope is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = slope

y2 = y-coordinate of second point

y1 = y-coordinate of first point

x2 = x-coordinate of second point

x1 = x-coordinate of first point

We can choose our first and second points as any points on the table, but we will choose the first andd second points which are (-5,10) and (-3,0).

y2 = 0

y1 = 10

x2 = -3

x1 = -5

m = (0-10)/(-3-(-5))

m = (-10)/(-3+5)

m = (-10)/(2)

m = -5

Answer:

Dale polled the 2 fastest swimmers on the swim team.

Is this sample of the swimmers on the swim team likely to be representative?

Answer as Yes or No

Answers

Answer:   No

Reason:

Dale is biased toward the two fastest people in the group, but is leaving out the rest of the swimmers who may not be so fast. The people left out may be very distant from the top two swimmers. Therefore, Dale has not picked a representative sample.

As an example with numbers, let's say we had these average speeds in mph: {1, 2, 3, 4, 20, 30}. Of course these are just hypothetical examples and not based on actual realistic speeds; however, the example should still suffice.

That data set shows the average is closer to 2 and 3 than it is to 20 and 30. Dale polling the fastest people greatly skews the mean larger than it should be.

To get a better more representative sample, Dale should randomly pick 2 people regardless if they are the top two swimmers or not. He can pick the names out of a hat, or use a computer program to generate random numbers.

Yes because there the fastest and people would want to be like them

What are properties of parallel lines?

Properties of Parallel Lines

The pairs of corresponding angles are equal.The pairs of vertically opposite angles are equal.The pairs of alternate interior angles are equal.The pairs of alternate exterior angles are equal.

Given:

lime m || n

So, using the property of parallel lines we have the angles on the same side of transversal are supplementary

x- 5 + 2x +14= 180

3x + 9 = 180

3x = 171

x= 171/3

x= 57

Hence, the value of x is 57.

The first step that we must take before attempting to solve a problem is to understand what the problem statement is asking from us and what is given to us to help accomplish that goal.  Looking at the problem statement, it asks us what the probability of choosing a vegetable is.  We are given information about how many dishes of each type of food there is out of 10 dishes.

The next step that we need to do is to collect the total amount of vegetable dishes that have been listed in the problem statement along with the total amount of dishes.  We know that there are 10 covered dishes and that there are 2 broccoli and 2 carrot which adds up to 4 vegetable dishes.

Now that we have that information we can move onto the final part which is to determine the probability of choosing a vegetable dish.  We can do this by dividing the total amount of vegetable dishes from the total amount of dishes.

Determine the probability

[tex]\textsf{probability = (vegetable dishes) / (total dishes)}[/tex][tex]\textsf{probability = (4) / (10)}[/tex][tex]\textsf{probability = (4/2) / (10/2)}[/tex][tex]\textsf{probability = (2) / (5)}[/tex]

Therefore, looking at the options that best matches the answer that we got we can confidentially say that it is option A, 2/5.

[tex]\huge\text{Hey there!}[/tex]


[tex]\text{Your equation: }\rm{\dfrac{number\ of\ the\ vegetables (the\ carrots\ \& \ the \ broccolis)}{total\ meals\ you\ have\ all\ together} = probability}\\\\\rm{\dfrac{2\ carrots + 2 \ broccolis}{10\ meals} = probability}\\\\\text{2 + 2 = \boxed{\mathbf 4} , right?}\\\\\rm{\dfrac{4}{10} = probability}\\\\\rm{\dfrac{4\div2}{10\div 2} = probability}\\\\\rm{\dfrac{2}{5} = probability}\\\\\\\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be: \boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{2}{5}}}}\huge\checkmark[/tex]
