Answer:

648 sq units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the base= 12×12= 144 sq. units

Perimeter of the base=4×12= 48

Total surface area= 1/2×48×21 + 144

=648 sq units

ANSWER

648 square units.

EXPLANATION

The surface area of the regular pyramid is the area of the base plus the area of the 4 triangular faces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The generalization could be valid for a sample that accurately represents the entire employee population of Ashton's company.

This sample should be large enough to be statistically significant and should be selected randomly to avoid bias.

To calculate the sample size needed for a valid generalization, Ashton could use a confidence level and margin of error. Let's say he wants a 95% confidence level with a margin of error of 5%.

First, he needs to find the population size (total number of employees at the company). Let's assume there are 500 employees.

Next, he can use the formula for sample size calculation:

[tex]\[n = \frac{{Z^2 \cdot p \cdot (1-p)}}{{E^2}}\][/tex]

Where:

- (n) = sample size

-(Z) = Z-score corresponding to the desired confidence level (for 95% confidence level, Z = 1.96)

- (p) = estimated proportion of employees using cell phones primarily for business (from the survey data)

- (E) = margin of error (0.05 for 5%)

Let's say from the survey, Ashton found that 70% of employees use cell phones primarily for business.

Plugging in the values:

[tex]\[n = \frac{{1.96^2 \cdot 0.70 \cdot (1-0.70)}}{{0.05^2}}\][/tex]

[tex]\[n = \frac{{3.8416 \cdot 0.70 \cdot 0.30}}{{0.0025}}\][/tex]

[tex]\[n = \frac{{0.719856}}{{0.0025}}\][/tex]

[tex]\[n ≈ 287.94\][/tex]

So, Ashton would need a sample size of approximately 288 employees to make a valid generalization about the entire company.

To ensure the generalization is valid, Ashton needs to collect data from a sample that accurately represents the entire employee population. This sample should be large enough to be statistically significant and should be selected randomly to avoid bias.

Using statistical methods, Ashton can calculate the minimum sample size needed for a valid generalization. By setting a confidence level and margin of error, he can determine the sample size required to achieve a certain level of accuracy.

In this case, Ashton chose a 95% confidence level with a margin of error of 5%. He used a formula that takes into account the population size, estimated proportion of employees using cell phones primarily for business, and the margin of error.

After plugging in the values, he calculated that he would need a sample size of approximately 288 employees to make a valid generalization about the entire company.

So, for the conclusion that most employees at his company use cell phones primarily for business to be valid, Ashton should survey at least 288 randomly selected employees.

Complete question:

Ashton surveyed some of the employees at his company about their cell phone habits. From the data, he concluded that most employees at his company use cell phones primarily for business. For which sample could this generalization be valid?

[tex]y = - \frac{1}{3} x -\frac{4}{3} [/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given line is

[tex]y = 3x + 3[/tex]

The given point is

[tex](-1,-1)[/tex]

The slope of the given line is

[tex]m = 3[/tex]

We found this by comparing

[tex]y = 3x + 3[/tex]

to

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

If two lines are perpendicular, then one is the negative reciprocal of the other.

Hence the slope of the required line is

[tex] - \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

Using the point-slope formula or otherwise, we can find the required equation.

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

We substitute the slope and point to get:

[tex]y + 1 = - \frac{1}{3} (x + 1)[/tex]

[tex]y = - \frac{1}{3} x -\frac{4}{3} [/tex]

Answer:

The number of roses is 16

The number of lilies is 8

The number of orchids is 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of roses

y-----> the number of lilies

z-----> the number of orchids

we know that

x=2y ----> y=x/2 ----> equation A

z=x+5 ---> equation B

x+y+z=45 ----> equation C

substitute equation A and equation B in equation C and solve for x

x+(x/2)+(x+5)=45

(5/2)x=45-5

(5/2)x=40

x=40*2/5

x=16 roses

Find the value of y

y=x/2 ----> y=16/2=8 lilies

Find the value of z

z=x+5 -----> z=16+5=21 orchids

therefore

The number of roses is 16

The number of lilies is 8

The number of orchids is 21

To find the answer for one cup of flour, divide the cups of sugar by the cups of flour. Here’s how it works.

Since we want the proportion for 1 cup of flour, we divide it by itself to get 1.

Thus, we need to have equal sides, so we divide the number of cups of sugar by the amount the cups of flour divided by.

So: 2.5/7.5=1/3

1 cup of flour is proportional to 1/3 cups of sugar.

Hope this helps!

The amount of sugar for 1 cup of flour can be determined through setting up and solving a proportion based on the given proportional relationship, though specific values are required. For example, if 3 cups of sugar are needed for 2 cups of flour, then 1.5 cups of sugar would be needed for 1 cup of flour.

Unfortunately, the specific values are not given in the question, but we can still explain how you would find the answer. In a proportional relationship, the ratios between the two quantities (in this case, sugar and flour) is constant. This means that if we know the amount of sugar used for a certain amount of flour, we can determine the amount of sugar used for 1 cup of flour by setting up an equation and solving for the unknown variable, provided we have the necessary data.

For example, if the relationship was such that for every 2 cups of flour, you used 3 cups of sugar, then the ratio of sugar to flour would be 3/2. To find out how much sugar you need for 1 cup of flour, you can create a proportion that reads 3/2 = x/1 and solve for x. In this case, x is the equivalent amount of sugar needed for 1 cup of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x)=  (x^2-1)/(x-4)

The average rate of change for the interval a≤x≤b is given by:

Rate of change=  (f(b)-f(a))/(b-a)

In our question,

a=2

and

b=6

So,

f(2)=  ((2)^2-1)/(2-4)

=(4-1)/(-2)

= -3/2

And

f(6)=  ((6)^2-1)/(6-4)

=(36-1)/2

=  35/2

Rate of change=  ( 35/2-(-3/2))/(6-2)

=(35/2+3/2)/(6-2)

=  ((35+3)/2)/4

=(38/2)/4

=19/4

=4.75

The average rate of change is 4.75 ..

Answer:

Average rate of change =4.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is [tex]f\left(x\right)=\frac{x^2-1}{x-4}[/tex].

Now we need to find the average rate of change of f(x) for [tex]2\le x\le6[/tex].

So plug these values into average rate of change  (ARC) formula.

[tex]ARC=\frac{f\left(b\right)-f\left(a\right)}{b-a}[/tex]

[tex]ARC=\frac{f\left(6\right)-f\left(2\right)}{6-2}[/tex]

[tex]ARC=\frac{\frac{6^2-1}{6-4}-\frac{2^2-1}{2-4}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]ARC=\frac{\frac{36-1}{6-4}-\frac{4-1}{2-4}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]ARC=\frac{17.5-\left(-1.5\right)}{4}[/tex]

[tex]ARC=\frac{19}{4}[/tex]

[tex]ARC=4.75[/tex]

So the final answer is average rate of change =4.75.

Answer: -1 1/2 < -1/4

Explanation: Since the number is negative, -1 1/2 is further to the left on the number line, meaning it has less value.

The relationship between -1 1/2 and -1/4 can be expressed as an inequality. In this case, -1 1/2 is less than -1/4, so the inequality is -1 1/2 < -1/4.

The relationship between -1 1/2 and -1/4 may be written as an inequality. Remember, an inequality indicates that one number is larger or smaller than another. In this case, it shows which negative number, either -1 1/2 or -1/4, is larger. On the number line, a negative number situated to the right is larger than a number situated to the left. So, in terms of value, -1/4 is larger than -1 1/2 as it's less negative. This can be written as:
