Africa 11.7 million
Antarctica 5.4 million
Asia 17.3 million
Australia 3.3 million
Europe 3.8 million
North America 9.4 million
South America 6.9 million
What is the median of the land areas of the seven continents?

9.4 million
6.9 million
7.4 million
5.4 million

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6.9 million

Step-by-step explanation:

the median is the number that is in the middle or centre of a set of observations that is arranged either in an ascending or descending order.

Arrange the land areas in ascending order :

3.3, 3.8, 5.4, 6.9, 9.4, 11.7, 17.3

the number in the middle is the 4th number which is 6.9

Which of the following statements best describes a characteristic of an observational study?
The researcher determines relationships among variables.
The individuals are observed the exact way they act in real life.
The researcher imposes, for example, a treatment on the sample population and then observes their response.
It is the best method to learn about cause-effect relationships.

Answers

Answer:

The researcher determines relationships among variables.

The individuals are observed the exact way they act in real life.

Step-by-step explanation:

An observational study can be defined as a type of study in which a researcher observes and measures the effect of a diagnostic test, risk factors, or treatments on individuals without intervening, changing or manipulating who are or aren't exposed to it (controlled conditions).

Hence, the statements which best describes a characteristic of an observational study are;

I. The researcher determines relationships among variables.

II. The individuals are observed the exact way they act in real life.

Additionally, an unobtrusive data collection is a data collection technique used mainly in the social sciences to obtain or gather data without the researcher directly interfering or interfacing with the subject being studied. Thus, it doesn't influence the behavior, action or response of the subjects under study.

A ladder is leaning against the side of a 10cm house. If the base of the ladder is a 3cm away from the house, how tall is the Ladder

Answers

Answer:

10.44cm lon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Height of house= 10cm

Distance of ladder from wall= 3cm

We can apply the Pythagoras theorem to get the length of the ladder

Also, the length of the ladder is the hypothenuse

z^2= x^2+y^2

z^2= 10^2+ 3^2

z^2= 100+9

z^2= 109

square both sides

z= √109

z= 10.44cm

Hence the ladder is 10.44cm long

Solve this question please

Answers

Answer:

Option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the options, we can assume that the function y(x) is something like:

[tex]y = \sqrt{4 + a*x^2}[/tex]

[tex]y' = (1/2)*\frac{1}{\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} }*(2*a*x) = \frac{a*x}{\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} }[/tex]

such that, y(0) = √4 = 2, as expected.

Now, we want to have:

[tex]y' = \frac{x*y}{2 + x^2}[/tex]

replacing y' and y we get:

[tex]\frac{a*x}{\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} } = \frac{x*\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} }{2 + x^2}[/tex]

Now we can try to solve this for "a".

[tex]\frac{a*x}{\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} } = \frac{x*\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} }{2 + x^2}[/tex]

If we multiply both sides by y(x), we get:

[tex]\frac{a*x}{\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} }*\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} = \frac{x*\sqrt{4 + a*x^2} }{2 + x^2}*\sqrt{4 + a*x^2}[/tex]

[tex]a*x = \frac{x*(4 + a*x^2)}{2 + x^2}[/tex]

We can remove the x factor in both numerators if we divide both sides by x, so we get:

[tex]a = \frac{4 + a*x^2}{2 + x^2}[/tex]

Now we just need to isolate "a"

[tex]a*(2 + x^2) = 4 + a*x^2[/tex]

[tex]2*a + a*x^2 = 4 + a*x^2[/tex]

Now we can subtract a*x^2 in both sides to get:

[tex]2*a = 4\\a = 4/2 = 2[/tex]

Then the solution is:

[tex]y = \sqrt{4 + 2*x^2}[/tex]

The correct option is option a.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

e ≈ 9.608D ≈ 46.5°F ≈ 38.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The only given angle is between the two given sides, so the Law of Cosines must be used to find the side opposite the angle. It tells you ...

  e² = d²+f² -2df·cos(E)

  e² = 7² +6² -2·7·6·cos(95°) ≈ 92.321082

  e ≈ 9.608

The remaining angles can be found from the law of sines.

  sin(D)/d = sin(E)/e

  D = arcsin(d/e·sin(E)) ≈ arcsin(7/9.608·sin(95°)) ≈ 46.5°

  F = 180° -95° -46.5° = 38.5°

which one makes a right triangle?

Answers

Answer: Choice B) 6, 8, 10

=======================================

Explanation:

As mentioned earlier (in a previous post) the triangle with sides 2,5,7 is not a right triangle. So we can rule out choice A.

For choice B, we have a = 6, b = 8, c = 10, and that leads to...

a^2+b^2 = c^2

6^2+8^2 = 10^2

36+64 = 100

100 = 100

The true equation at the end means the beginning equation is true as well for those a,b,c values. Therefore, we have a right triangle and the answer is choice B

Choices C and D are similar to choice A. They make a^2+b^2 = c^2 to be false.

The formula for this is

N is the amount of the element left after a certain amount of time (for us it is measured in days),

N₀ is the initial amount of the element in grams,

t is the number of days gone by, and

H is the half life of the element. Filling in:

[tex]N=42(.5)^{\frac{16}{8}[/tex] which simplifies a bit to

Answers

Answer:

6 3/4 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming value means volume, so if I'm wrong, let me know ;).

To find volume, you multiply length x height x width. So you multiply 2 1/4 three times.

Convert 2 1/4 to an improper fraction.

2 1/4 = 9/4

9   x   3        27

--        --     =

4   x    1        4

Now convert 27/4 to a mixed fraction.

27/4 = 6 3/4

So the volume of the cube is 6 3/4 cm³.

You have the correct idea for the boxes you've filled out. For the first three boxes in column 1, I would be specific which segments you are dividing. So for instance, in the first box, it would be EG/EB = 55/11 = 5. Then the second box would be EF/EC = 35/7 = 5, and so on. The order of the boxes doesn't matter. The three boxes then combine together to help show that the triangles are similar. Specifically [tex]\triangle EFG \sim \triangle ECB[/tex]. The order of the letters is important to help show how the angles pair up and how the sides pair up. We use the SSS similarity theorem here.

The second problem is the same idea, but we use one pair of congruent angles. So we'll use the SAS similarity theorem this time.
