A landowner wants to find the distance d across a pond. The two overlapping right triangles are similar . Using the measurements shown , what is d?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

96 m

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the two overlapping triangles are similar in the figure.

The landowner wishes to find the distance across the pond. The distance is d.

From the figure, since the two triangles are similar, therefore we can write :

[tex]$\frac{d}{(24+40)}=\frac{60}{40}$[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{d}{64}=\frac{60}{40}$[/tex]

[tex]$d = \frac{60}{40} \times 64$[/tex]

[tex]$d = \frac{6}{4} \times 64$[/tex]

d = 6 x 16

  = 96 m

Therefore, the distance across the pond is d = 96 m

Which equation is the inverse of y = x2 + 16?
O y = x2 – 16
y=+√x - 16
y=+NX-16
y = x2 - 4

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{y = \pm \sqrt{x - 16}}[/tex]

To solve for the inverse, swap the x and y variables:

x = y² + 16

Isolate for y by subtracting both sides by 16:

x - 16 = y²

Square root both sides:

√(x - 16) = y

Add the plus/minus sign:

y = ±√(x - 16)

450 high school freshmen were randomly selected for a national survey. Among survey participants, the mean grade-point average (GPA) was 2.96, and the standard deviation was 0.21. What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error is of 0.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.7}{2} = 0.15[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.15 = 0.85[/tex], so Z = 1.037.

The margin of error is of:

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation was 0.21.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.21[/tex]

Sample of 450:

This means that [tex]n = 450[/tex]

What is the margin of error, assuming a 70% confidence level, to the nearest hundredth?

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 1.037\frac{0.21}{\sqrt{450}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 0.01[/tex]

The margin of error is of 0.01.

Help with volume all help is appreciated :)

Answers

Answer:

It would be 0.41 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, to start, lets get the volume of the entire cinder block and the holes within it.

1.31 * 0.66 * 0.66 ---> 0.5706...

Next with the holes, they are both 0.33 wide, 0.39 long, and just as tall at 0.66 feet.

0.33 * 0.39 * 0.66 ---> 0.0849...

Since there's two of them: 0.1698...

To finish it, subtract the hole volume from the total volume;

0.5806 - 0.1698 = 0.4108

Rounds to 0.41 ft^3

a man 1.30 m tall is on a top of a building. he observed a car on the road at an angle of 60 degrees if the building is 30 m high,how far is the car from the building?​

Answers

Given :

A man 1.30 m tall is on a top of a building. He observed a car on the road at an angle of 60 degrees if the building is 30 m high.

To Find :

How far is the car from the building.

Solution :

Let, distance between car and the building is x m.

So,

[tex]tan \ \theta = \dfrac{height\ of\ building + height\ of\ man}{distance \ between \ car \ and \ building}\\\\tan \ 60^o = \dfrac{30+1.3}{x}\\\\x = \dfrac{31.3}{1.73}\ m\\\\x = 18.09\ m[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

Write the fraction 2/3 as the sum of unit fraction

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1/2 + 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

  2/3 = 1/2 + 1/6

__

The sum of unit fractions is called an Egyptian Fraction. There are several different algorithms for finding such a sum. Here, we are starting with the form ...

  2/p

where p is a small prime. Then the sum can be written as ...

  1/((p+1)/2) +1/(p(p+1)/2) = 1/(4/2) +1/(3(4/2)) = 1/2 + 1/6

A different algorithm is used when p is a composite number.

__

Using the "greedy" algorithm, we can find the largest unit fraction less than 2/3 to be ...

  1/ceil(3/2) = 1/2

Then the largest unit fraction in the remainder is similarly found. The remainder is ...

  2/3 -1/2 = 1/6 . . . . already a unit fraction

So, the sum is ...

  2/3 = 1/2 + 1/6

A rectangular garden is to be constructed using a rock wall as one side of the garden and wire fencing for the other three sides. Given that there are 56 meters of fencing available, determine the dimensions that would create the garden of maximum area. You may enter an exact answer or round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

x  =  28 m

y  =  14  m

A(max)  =  392 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular garden    A (r ) =  x * y

Let´s call x the side of the rectangle to be constructed with a rock wall, then only one x side of the rectangle will be fencing with wire.

the perimeter of the rectangle is  p  =  2*x  +  2*y    ( but in this particular case only one side x will be fencing with wire

56   =   x    +  2*y      56   -  2*y  =  x

A(r)   =  ( 56  -  2*y ) * y

A(y ) =  56*y  -  2*y²

Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get:

A´(y )  =  56  - 4 * y        A´(y) = 0     56  -  4*y  =  0    4*y  =  56

y =  14 m

and x  =  56  - 2*y    =  56 - 28  = 28 m

Then dimensions of the garden:

x  =  28 m

y  =  14  m

A(max)  =  392 m²

How do we know that the area we found is a local maximum??

We find the second derivative

A´´(y)  = - 4     A´´(y)  <  0   then the function A(y) has a local maximum at y = 14 m

chhering deposite rs. 40000 in a bank at the rate of 5% p.a. if he has to pay 5%of the total interest as tax for the bank how much will he get after 4 years​

Answers

Answer: Rs 7600

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest will be calculated as:

= Principal × Rate × Time

= 40000 × 5% × 4

= 40000 × 0.05 × 4

= 8000

Since he has to pay 5% of the total interest as tax for the bank, the amount that he will he get after 4 years will be:

= 8000 - (5% × 8000)

= 8000 - (0.05 × 8000)

= 8000 - 400

= 7600

Therefore, he'll get Rs 7600

Find an
angle in each quadrant with a common reference angle with 146°, from
o°=0<360°

Answers

Answer:

The equivalent angle on the first quadrant is 44º. On the second quadrant, it is the given angle of 146º.

The equivalent angle on the third quadrant is 214º.

The equivalent angle on the fourth quadrant is 316º.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first quadrant:

The equivalent in the second quadrant of a angle on the first quadrant a is 180 subtracted by the angle, that is, 180 - a.

In this question, the reference angle is 146º, which is on the second quadrant.

So, on the first quadrant:

146 = 180 - a -> a = 180 - 146 = 44.

The equivalent angle on the first quadrant is 44º. On the second quadrant, it is the given angle of 146º.

Third quadrant:

The equivalent angle on the third quadrant is 2 multiplied by 180 and subtracted by the second quadrant angle. So

2*180 - 146 = 360 - 146 = 214º.

The equivalent angle on the third quadrant is 214º.

Fourth quadrant:

The equivalent angle on the fourth quadrant is 360 subtracted by the angle on the first quadrant. So

360 - 44 = 316º

The equivalent angle on the fourth quadrant is 316º.

all triangle angles add up to 180 so subtract the two other angles to get your result

In a large population of adult rabbits, the mean ear length is 4.5 inches with standard deviation 1.25 inches. Suppose 16 rabbits from this population are randomly selected for an experiment. The approximate distribution of the sample mean ear length is:

Answers

Answer:

(4.5, 0.3125)

Step-by-step explanation:

given that

The mean is 4.5 inches

the standard deviation is 1.25 inches

and, the sample of 16 rabbits is selected

we need to find out the approximate distribution

so,

= (4.5, 1.25 ÷√16)

= (4.5, 0.3125)

hence, the same is to be considered

y-4/x--3 = -8-4/1--3

y-4/x+3 = -12/1+3

y-4/x+3 =-12/4

y-4/x+3 = -3

y-4 = -3(x+3)

y-4=-3x-9

y+3x+5=0

Answer:

y = -3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3, 4 and 1, -8

1 - -3 = 4

-8 - 4 = -12

[tex]\frac{-12}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-3}{1}[/tex] = -3

gradient/slope = -3

now substituting in the point -3, 4 to find the y intercept:

4= -3 x -3 + c

4 = 9 + c

-5 = c

y intercept = -5

equation is y = -3x - 5
