Answer:

Sonji's wire measurements will be chosen

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided:

Don's wire measurements = 3 inches, 5 inches, and 12 inches

Margo's wire measurements = 6 inches, 8 inches, and 14 inches

Sonji's wire measurements = 12 inches, 8 inches, and 17 inches

Liam's wire measurements = 16 inches, 8 inches, and 27 inches.

Find:

The measure utilized to form a triangle

Computation:

Within a triangle, the combined lengths of the two shorter sides must exceed that of the longest side

a + b > c

Thus,[ [TAG_40]]

Don's wires = 3 inches + 5 inches < 12 inches

Margo's wires = 6 inches + 8 inches = 14 inches

Sonji's wires = 12 inches + 8 inches > 17 inches

Liam's wires = 16 inches + 8 inches < 27 inches.

Therefore,

Sonji's wire measurements will be selected

The accompanying data resulted from an experiment in which weld diameter x and shear strength y (in pounds) were determined for
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

y hat = 2114.20 + 18.96x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the least squares regression model equation:

y hat = -959.00 + 8.60x

weld diameter x; shear strength y (in pounds)

1 lb = 0.4536 kg

To convert shear strength y to kilograms:

y is multiplied by 0.4536

(y hat × 0.4536) = -959.00 + 8.60x

Divide both sides by 0.4536

(y hat × 0.4536) / 0.4536= (-959.00 + 8.60x) / 0.4536

y hat = 2114.1975 + 18.959435x

y hat = 2114.20 + 18.96x

Assume that a study of 500 randomly selected airplane routes showed that 482 arrived on time. Select the correct interpretation
babunello [11817]

Answer: C. Significant at 0.036

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total samples selected Ns= 500

Airplanes that arrived on time Na = 482.

Airplanes that arrived late Nl = 500 - 482 = 18

Calculating the probability of an airplane arriving late:

P(L) = Nl/Ns

P(L) = 18/500

P(L) = 0.036

An event is deemed significant if its probability is equal to or less than 0.05.

As P(L) < 0.05

P(L) = Significant at 0.036

A mirror is made of two congruent parallelograms as shown in the diagram. The parallelograms have a combined area of 9 1/3 squar
AnnZ [12381]
Given:
Two identical parallelograms total area = 9 1/3 yd²
Each parallelogram has height 1 1/3 yd

Area formula: area = base × height

Split the total area equally to find each parallelogram's area.

Convert 9 1/3: (9*3)+1 = 28/3

Divide by 2: 28/3 × 1/2 = 28/6 yd², which is 4 4/6 yd² → 4 2/3 yd²

So each parallelogram's area is 4 2/3 yd²

Set up base × 1 1/3 yd = 4 2/3 yd²

Convert and divide: 14/3 yd² ÷ 4/3 yd = base

Multiply: 14/3 × 3/4 = base
Compute: 14*3 / 3*4 = base
42 / 12 = base
Which simplifies to 3 6/12 yd = base
or 3 1/2 yd = base

a) Each parallelogram has a base of 3 1/2 yards
b) If the two parallelograms form a rectangle:
Rectangle area = length × width

Length = 3 1/2 yd × 2 = 7 yds
Width = 3 1/2 yds

Area = 7 yd × 3 1/2 yd
Area = 7 × 7/2 yd²
Area = 7*7 / 2 yd²
Area = 49 / 2 yd²
Area = 24 1/2 yd²
