Urban rail systems have been proposed to alleviate traffic congestion, but results in many cities have been cited as evidence that this approach to traffic management is ineffective. For example, a U.S. city that opened three urban rail branches experienced a net decline of 3,100 urban rail commuters during a period when employment increased by 96,000. Officials who favor urban rail systems as a solution to traffic congestion have attempted to counter this argument by noting that commuting trips in that city represent just 20 percent of urban travel.
The response of the officials to the claim that urban rail systems are ineffective is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it
A) presents no evidence to show that the statistics are incorrect
B) relies solely on general data about U.S. cities rather than data about the city in question
C) fails to consider that commuting trips may cause significantly more than 20 percent of the traffic congestion
D) fails to show that the decline in the number of urban rail commuters in one U.S. city is typical of U.S. cities generally
E) provides no statistics on the use of urban rail systems by passengers other than commuters

Answer:

102 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of Right rectangular prism = 12 * 8.5 * 4  = 408 cubic feet

Density = Mass / Volume

=>  0.25  = Weight of contents in container / Volume of container

=> 0.25 = Weight of contents in container / 408

=> Weight of contents in container  = 0.25 * 408

=> Weight of contents in container  = 102 pounds

Answer:

75 students were surveyed!

Step-by-step explanation:

strawberry: 25

coffe: 35

vanilla: 10

fudge ripple: 5

Just add that all together

[tex]25 + 35 = 60[/tex]

[tex]10 + 5 = 15[/tex]

[tex]60 + 15 = 75[/tex]

so 75

Answer:

18617.66 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

sides of triangular base

a=  145ft  ,

b = 257ft ,

c =  290ft

calculate the area of the base  

The base is a scalene triangle hence the area is calculated as follows

s = ( a + b + c ) / 2

  = ( 145 + 257 + 290 ) / 2 = 346

Area of triangle = [tex]\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} = \sqrt{346(201)(89)(56)}[/tex]

                          = 18617.66 ft^2

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2 = 13  (write the equation)

5x - 2 + 2 = 13 + 2  (isolate the variable)

5x = 15

5x/5 = 15/5  (simplify)

x = 3

Answer:  x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

13=5x-2

13+2=5x

15=5x

x=15/5

x=3

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle's total interior angle measurement will equal 180°.

Set all measurements equal to 180:

(82) + (9x - 6) + (6x - 1) = 180

Simplify. Combine like terms:

(82 - 6 - 1) + (9x + 6x) = 180

(82 - 7) + (15x) = 180

(75) + 15x = 180

Next, isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

~

First, Subtract 75 from both sides of the equation:

15x + 75 = 180

15x + 75 (-75) = 180 (-75)

15x = 180 - 75

15x = 105

Next, divide 15 from both sides of the equation:

(15x)/15 = (105)/15

x = 105/15

x = 7

7 is your value for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

6×10 obv + area of circle pi(r^2) and half that for a semi cirxle

Answer:

9 π^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's just fined the area of the rectangle: Area= 2lw = A=60

Now, we know the diameter of the Spehre which is 10 -2 -2 = 6, the radius is half of that = 3

A=πr2 = A≈28.27

add A≈28.27 + 60 = 88.27 = 9 π^2≈88.82643

Answer:

352 sq. inches

Step-by-step explanation:

32 x 22 = 704

704 / 2 = 352

Answer:

352 sq. inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is found by the formula 1/2bh

aka 1/2 of base times height

the height is 22 and the base is 32 so we multiply 22 by 32

We get 704 but not the end we have to multiply that by 1/2 or divide by 2

Do that and you get 352

b=32      h=22

22*32=704

704/2 or 704*1/2 = 352

Hope I helped (p.s. brainliest?)

Answer:I think it's trying to find the area of which is a 5 times 2 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 3.8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve 9.30 x 10^7 to find the length of an astronomical unit.

10^7 = 10000000

9.30x10000000=93000000 miles

next, solve for the distances the sun is from Jupiter and Mars,

10^8 = 100000000

1.42x100000000=142000000 miles

4.84x100000000=484000000 miles

next, subtract the distances

484000000-142000000=342000000 miles

then, divide the sum by 93000000 to find the amount in astronomical units.

342000000/93000000=3.677419

finally, round to the nearest hundred

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Two triangles are said to be similar if their corresponding angles are congruent and the corresponding sides are in proportion . In other words, similar triangles are the same shape, but not necessarily the same size.

The triangles are congruent if, in addition to this, their corresponding sides are of equal length.

Step-by-step explanation:

so I will that they are similar

Answer:

24 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

the figure shown is a triangular prism

The base is the triangle

So we need to find the area of the triangle using this formula

[tex]A=\frac{bh}{2}[/tex]

where b = base and h = height

The base (triangle) has a base length of 8 inches and a height of 6 inches

Having found the information we needed, we plug it into the formula

So

[tex]A=\frac{6*8}{2} \\6*8=48\\\frac{48}{2} =24\\A=24in^2[/tex]

So the area of the base is 24 in²

Answer:

88 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the shaded region:

8x16= 128

Find the area of the un-shaded region:

5x4=20

20x2 regions= 40 ft² total

since the unshaded region is excluded from the shaded region subtract the area of the shaded region by the area of the unshaded region

128-40= 88

A= 88 ft²

Answer: +
