Students were surveyed about their preference between dogs and cats. The following two-way table displays data for the sample of students who responded to the survey.

The proportion of students that prefer cats is 36% in the survey

From the two-way table, we have the following highlights

The proportion of students that prefer cats is the quotient of students that prefer cat to the total number of students surveyed.

So, we have:

Divide 36 by 100

Express as percentage

Hence, the proportion of students that prefer cats is 36%

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

only 10/60 isn't equivalent

hope this : )
