Answer:

Around 24 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

*Make sure calculator is on degree mode*

Try to draw out triangle--it helps

Need to use law of sines... this is where an angle and the side that opposes it are equal to each other. For example, Angle U is equal to 9.7

$\frac{sin\alpha }{4} = \frac{sin90}{9.7}$

Multiply 4 and sin90 and then divide the product by 9.7

Use $sin^{-1}$ on calculator to convert the answer into degrees

Feliz [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a )

sample mean = sum total of given data / no of data

= 415.35 / 20 = 20.76

To calculate the median we arrange the data in ascending order and take the average of 10 th and 11 th term .

= 20.50 + 20.72 / 2

= 20.61

b ) To calculate the 10% trimmed mean , we neglect the largest 10% and smallest 10 % data and then calculate the mean . Here we neglect the first two smallest and last two greatest

(18.92 + 19.25 ..... + 22.43 + 22.85) / 16

= 20.74

c )

We can easily plot the data on number line from 17 to 24

d )

Maximum value of data set = 23.71 and minimum value is 18.04

mean is 20.76 , median is 20.61 and trimmed mean is 20.74

They are between maximum and minimum values of given data . Hence there is no outliers .

Alex is 1.6 m tall and Noah is 1.5 times as tall as Alex. How much taller is Noah in centimeters?

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

80 centimeters taller

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert Alex's height from meters to centimeters by multiplying by 100 because there are 100 centimeters in one meter to get 160 centimeters. Now multiply 160 centimeters by 1.5 to get Noah's height, 240 centimeters. Finally, since we need to find their difference in height, subtract Alex's height of 160 centimeters from Noah's height of 240 to get 80 centimeters.

Devon wants to write an equation for a line that passes through 2 of the data points he has collected. The points are (8, 5) and

ser-zykov [4K]

For this case we have the following equation:
$7x - 10y = 3
$
From here, we must substitute ordered pairs of the form:
(x, y)
If the ordered pair satisfies the equation, then it belongs to the line.
We have then:

For (8, 5):
We substitute the following values:
$x = 8

y = 5

7 (8) - 10 (5) = 3

56 - 50 = 3

6 = 3$
We observe that the equation is not satisfied and therefore, this point does not belong to the line.
Since one of the points does not belong to the line, then the equation is not a good model.

Answer:
It is not a good model. One of the points does not belong to the line.

Harper knows he is 50 yards from school. The map on his phone shows that the school is 34 inch from his current location. How fa

laila [671]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. We know that 1 yard is 36 inches, therefore, 50 yards expressed in inches is:

$(50)(36)=1800in$

2. If he is 50 yards from school and the map shows that the school is 34 inches from his current location, when it shows 3 inches the real distance is:

$\frac{(1800in)(3in)}{34in}=158.82in$

3. If you can to express it in yards:

$\frac{158.82}{36} =4.41 yd$

Therefore, the answer is: 158.82 inches or 4.41 yards.
