To solve this we use trigonometric functions that would relate the hypotenuse y and the given values. For this case we use cosine function which is expressed as:

cosine theta = adjacent side / hypotenuse
cosine 52 = 35 / y
y = 35 / cos 52
y = 56.85

Suppose you were exploring the hypothesis that there is a relationship between parents’ and children’s party identification. Wou

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

It could be purely due to chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

A population is defined as the whole group which has the same characteristics. For example a population of the college belongs to the same college . But a sample may be an element of a population.

So it is not necessary for a population to have the same characteristics as the sample.

But it is essential for the sample to have at least one same characteristics as the population.

So we would not be correct in inferring that such a relationship also exists in the population.

It is a hypothesis which can be true or false due to certain conditions or limitations as the case maybe.

For example in a population of smokers some may be in the habit of taking cocaine. But a sample of cocaine users does not mean the whole population uses it.

It could be purely due to chance if we find out that there is a relationship between parents’ and children’s party identification in the population.

Maya can run 18 miles in 3 hours, and she can bike 18 miles in 2 hours.

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if it is two hours then half of it is 9

so 18 + 9 = 27 which is how many miles she biked

6 is the number of miles she ran

so u times it by 1.5

27 + 9 = 36

In a certain region, the number of highway accidents increased by 20% over the four years period. How many accidents were there

erma4kov [3.2K]

Equation:

a = 5120

r = 1 + .2 = 1 . 2

f (n ) = 5120 * 1 . 2^n - 1

N = 4 years

f ( 4 ) 5120 * 1 . 2^4 - 1

5120 * 1 . 2^3

A turtle and a rabbit engage in a footrace over a distance of 4.00 km. The rabbit runs 0.500 km and then stops for a 90.0-min na

Oxana [17]

Answer:

(a) 2.29 km/h

(b) 9 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

For part (a) you have to apply<em> the average speed formula</em>, which is defined by:

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where d is the total distance traveled and t is the total time needed.

$d=\frac{4.00}{1.75}=2.29$ km/h

For part (b) you have to calculate the running time (T) , which is the total time of the race minus the nap time:

The nap time in hours is:

90/60 = 1.5 h (because there are 60 minutes in one hour)

The running time is:

T= 1.75 - 1.5 = 0.25 h

Let t1 represent the time before the nap and t2 the time after the nap:

t1+t2 = T

t1+t2 = 0.25

You have to apply the formula d=vt before and after the nap:

-Before the nap, the distance traveled was 0.50 km

0.50 = v1t1

-Afer the nap, the distance traveled was 3.50 km

3.50=v2t2

But v2=2v1 (because after the nap the rabbit runs twice as fast)

You have to solve the system of equations:

t1=0.25-t2 (I)

v1t1=0.50 (II)

2v1t2=3.50 (III)

Replacing (I) in (II)

v1(0.25-t2)=0.50

Applying distributive property and solving:

0.25v1-v1t2=.050

For (III) you have that v1t2=3.50/2=1.75. Hence:

0.25v1-1.75=0.50

Solving for v1:

v1 = 9 km/h
