Information about how the students at vista view high school got to school this morning is shown in the table. a 6-column table has 4 rows. the first column has entries tenth grade, eleventh grade, twelfth grade, total. the second column is labeled walk with entries 104, blank, 99, 314. the third column is labeled bicycle with entries 8, 10, blank, blank. the fourth column is labeled bus with entries 96, 72, 28, 196. the fifth column is labeled car with entries blank, 88, blank, 276. the sixth column is labeled total with entries 282, blank, 252, 815. out of all 252 twelfth graders, how many rode in a car to school? 11 74 111 114

The correct answer is D. 114

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 252 students of twelfth grade at Vista View High School.

99 walked to school

11 went by bicycle

28 used the school bus

To find the amount of twelfth graders that rode in a car, we do this calculation:

Amount of twelfth graders that rode in a car = Total of twelfth graders - those who walked - those who went by bicycle - those who used the bus

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Amount of twelfth graders that rode in a car = 252 - 99 - 11 - 28 = 252 - 138 = 114

The correct answer is D. 114

something that characterises a right triangle is the fact that we may use pythagoras' theorem to find any one of its sides given that we have the length of the other two sides. here, we have the length of the hypotenuse, √(87) yd, and one other side, √(23) yd, thus we can easily find the length of the remaining side using pythagoras' theorem as defined below:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.

thus, given that c = √(87) and a = √(23), we may substitute these into the formula we defined above to get:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

(√87)^2 = (√23)^2 + b^2 (substitute c = √87 and a = √23 into the equation)

87 = 23 + b^2 (evaluate (√87)^2 = 87 and (√23)^2 = 23 - remember that the square root of a number, squared will equal that very same number)

64 = b^2 (subtract 23 from both sides)

√64 = b (take the square root of both sides)

8 = b (evaluate √64 = 8)

therefor, the length of the unknown leg in the right triangle is 8 yd (first answer).
