Question

Kayla developed a study to determine the populations of fish in

a lake. She took two random samples in the winter and again in
the summer. She organized her data in the following table. What valid inference can Kayla make about the entire fish population in the pond. Select all that apply.(There are two correct answers)

Answer 1

7.81 units

Explanation:

To find the distance between two points, we can use the distance formula:

d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.

Using the coordinates given in the problem, we can plug in the values into the formula:

d = √((4 - (-2))^2 + (1 - (-4))^2)

Simplifying this expression, we get:

d = √((6)^2 + (5)^2)

d = √(36 + 25)

d = √61

Therefore, the distance between the two points (-2,-4) and (4,1) is √61 (square root of 61), which is approximately 7.81 units.
