The total square footage of mini storage units being rented in a city is graphed to forecast future demand. The scatter plot has

a trend line y=0.538x + 9.02, where x = 0 is the year 2005 and y is the total area rented (in ten thousand square feet) of all mini storage units in the city. If the total area rented continues to increase at the same rate, about how many square feet of mini storage units will be needed by the year 2018?
A 190,000 sq ft
B 160,000 sq ft
C 19,000 sq ft
D 16,000 sq ft

Answer:

B 160,000 sq ft

Step-by-step explanation:

2018 is 13 years after 2005.

Put x=13 in the equation and evaluate:

... y = 0.538·13 +9.02 = 6.994 +9.02 = 16.014

This is the number of 10,000 sq ft, so the required area is ...

... 16 times 10,000 sq ft = 160,000 sq ft.

Answer:

D) 16,000 sq ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The scatter plot has a trend line y = 0.538x + 9.02, where "x" represents the number years and "y" represents the area rented.

x =0, when the year 2005

Here we need to find the storage area needed in the year 2018

Therefore, x = 13 in the year 2018.

Now plug in x = 13 in the given equation and find the value of y.

y = 0.538(13) + 9.02

y = 6.99 + 9.02

y = 16.01 thousand square feet

y = 16.01 *1000

y = 16,010 square feet

The nearest approximate value 16,000 sq.ft

The answer is D) 16,000 sq ft

Thank you.

Katarina bought a package of 500 stickers. Each sheet in the package has 20 stickers.
Mashcka [7]
I think there are 125 heart stickers and 375 star stickers. 20/4 = 5, so there are 5 heart stickers per sheet. there are 25 sheets in the package, 5 x 25 = 125. if the remaining stickers on a sheet are stars then there are 15 star stickers per sheet. 15 x 25 = 375.

If nothing is known about the shape of the distribution of a quantitative variable, what percentage of data fall within 2 standa
Nezavi [6.7K]
<span>At least 75% of the data will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean. This is tricky problem. Usually when you're dealing with standard deviation, you have a bell curve, or something close to a bell curve and for such a data distribution, there will be approximately 95% of the data within 2 standard deviations of the mean. But if you don't know that you have a bell curve, you have to fall back to Chebyshev’s Theorem, which states that at least 75% of the data points will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean for any set of numbers.</span>

jacks tent is shaped like an isosceles triangle. the height of the tent measures 7 feet and the diagonal side measures 9 feet. f
Maru [420]

Answer:

8\sqrt{2}\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Remember that

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal interior angles

In the isosceles triangle ABC

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

Let

b ----> the length of the tents base

9^2=7^2+(b/2)^2

(b/2)^2=9^2-7^2

(b^2/4)=32

b^2=128\\\\b=\sqrt{128}\ ft

simplify

b=8\sqrt{2}\ ft

Nandini makes 'halwa' one evening and divides it into four equal portions for her family of four. However, just as they are abou
wel

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total 'halwa' made = 1

Divided into four equal portion = 1/4

Arrival of an unexpected guest = 1/5

By what percentage has each family member's share been reduced:

Change in the sharing proportion:

Previous share ratio - new sharing ratio

(1/4 - 1/5) = (5 - 4) / 20 = 1/20

That means total reduction in the sharing = 1/ 20

Since each member comes contributed equally:

Reduction in each family member's share ;

(1 / 20) ÷ 4

(1 / 20) * 1/4 = 1/ 80

Percentage reduction:

(Reduction / original share) * 100%

[(1/80) ÷ (1/4)] * 100

(1/80 * 4/1) * 100%

(1/20) * 100%

= 5%

Reduction in each family members share = 5%

a quadrilateral has vertices A(4,5), B(2,4), C(4,3), and D(6,4) which statement about the quadrilateral is true A ABCD is a para
g100num [7]
The answer is E. If you draw the quadrilateral out, you can clearly see what it looks like. And you can know from the coordinates that the diagonal of this quadrilateral is not equal. So it can not be rectangle. And also AB//CD and AD//BC.
