5. A monument casts a 78 ft. shadow at the same time that a vertical yardstick casts a 4.5 ft. shadow. How high is the monument?​

Answers

Answer 1

Hello,

Using Thalès 's theorem:

Let's h the height of the monument.

[tex]\dfrac{1}{h} =\dfrac{4.5}{78} \\\\h=\dfrac{78}{4.5} =\dfrac{156}{9} \approx{17.3\ (ft)}[/tex]

If you don't know what is the Thalès's theorem,

imagine that the similar triangles.

The Answer is… X=10.7

Answer:

x = 10.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

[tex]\frac{x}{sin 90}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9.2}{sin59}[/tex]

=> x × sin59 = 9.2 × sin90

=> x × sin59 = 9.2

=> x = 9.2 ÷ sin59

=> x = 10.733027...

=> x = 10.7 (Round to the nearest tenth)

Add the three numbers.

The magical thing about triangles is if they have 3 angles that are the same then 100% they will be the same lengths.

Annnnnd if you open the sum of the 3 angles more than 180degrees then it wouldn’t be a triangle anymore, the lines will open up.

Perimeter is just a fancy way of saying what’s the outside length/distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Decimals are well aligned when performing arithmetic operations if the equations are arranged in such a way that the decimal points are exactly vertically arranged, each following each other. This will ensure the right answer is gotten. Each place value is placed on the same vertical line on each other.

The equation in option B is correctly aligned. Because the decimal points are in the same vertical line and also the equation in option C.

Lorraine computed a confidence interval for µ based on a sample of size 41. Since she did not know σ, she used s in her calculations. Lorraine used the normal distribution for the confidence interval instead of a Student's t distribution. Will her interval be longer or shorter than one obtained by using an appropriate Student's t distribution? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Shorter

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the population standard deviation, σ, the normal distribution should be used. However, if the sample standard deviation is being used, the t distribution should be used. The implication of using a normal distribution in Lorraine's case when using the sample standard deviation which requires the use of the T - distribution is that, the interval beacjbea smaller as the critical value obtained is smaller than the T critical value with degree of freedom, n - 1 ; 41 - 1 = 40

At α = 0.05 ;

Tcritical, df = 40 = 2.02

The number of students in a geometry class is four
fifths the number of students in a Spanish class.
The total number of students in both classes does
not exceed 54. What is the greatest possible
number of students in the Spanish class?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let the number in the Spanish Class = x

Then the number in the Geometry Class = (4/5) x

Equation

x + (4/5)x < 54

Solution

x + (4/5)x < 54

4/5 = 0.8

x + 0.8x < 54

1.8x < 54                    Divide both sides by 1.8

1.8x / 1.8 < 54/1.8

x < 30

The sign used in the equation is less than, not less than or equal to.

The number of students taking Spanish cannot equal 30. There must be 29 in the Spanish Class.

Dora travels between the two mile markers shown and then finds her average speed in miles per hour. Select the three equations that represent this situation.

Answers

The image of the 2 mile markers is missing as well as the options and so i have attached them.

Answer:

> 1.5 hours = 105 miles/speed

> Speed = 105 miles/1.5 hours

> 105 miles = 1.5 hours × speed

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image attached, the distance of the first mile marker is given as 50 miles while the distance of the second mile marker is given as 155 miles.

Thus, difference in distance between the two markers; d = 155 - 50 = 105 miles

Also, we see that the time of first marker is 3 pm while the second marker is 4:30 pm.

Thus, difference in time = 4:30 - 3 = 1 hour 30 minutes or 1.5 hours.

We know that;

Speed = distance/time

Thus;

Speed = 105/1.5

Speed = 70 mph

Thus, the 3 equations that represent this situation from the options are;

> 1.5 hours = 105 miles/speed

> Speed = 105 miles/1.5 hours

> 105 miles = 1.5 hours × speed

Answer:

1.5 hours = 105 miles/speed

Speed = 105 miles/1.5 hours

105 miles = 1.5 hours × speed

I have this math problem I can't solve.

"Evelyn and Meredith decided to kayak 1 mile up and then back in the Humboldt channel.

The rate of the water flowing in the channel was 2 miles per hour. The total time it took them to kayak up and back was 3 hours and 40 minutes. Assuming they were padding their double kayak at a fairly consistent rate, find the rate Evelyn and Meredith were paddling.

Step 2 - Draw a picture to model the problem.
Step 3 - Label variables and create a table.
Step 4 - Write an equation to model the problem.
Step 5 - Solve the equation. Provide supporting work and detail.
Step 6 - Explain the results."

If you can help please do.

Answers

Evelyn and Meredith were paddling at a rate of [tex]\frac{3+\sqrt{493}}{11}mph[/tex] which is equivalent to 2.29mph approximately.

Step 2: See attached picture

Step 3: In this case we only have different variables, there is the rate at which Evelyn and Meredith were paddling, the rate at which they moved when rowing upstream, the rate at which they moved when rowing downstream, the time it took them to paddle upstream and the time it took them to paddle downstream.

v = rate at which Evelyn and Meredith were paddling.

[tex]v_{up}[/tex]= velocity at which they were moving when paddling upstream.

[tex]v_{down}[/tex]= velocity at which they were moving when paddling downstreamstream.

[tex]t_{up}[/tex]= time it took them paddling upstream.

[tex]t_{down}[/tex]= time it took them paddling downstream

Se attached picture for the table.

Step 4: Building this equation will require us to combine different equations into a single one. Let's start with the equation for the final rate at which they paddled when rowing upstream.

[tex]v-2=v_{up}[/tex]

When rowing upstream, the current will drag the kayak, so we subtract it from the rate at which they were rowing.

Let's find the final rat at which they moved when rowing downstream.

[tex]v+2=v{down}[/tex]

next, the problem tells us it took them 3 hours and 40 minutes to row up and down the channel so we can convert it into just hours like this:

[tex]40min*\frac{1hr}{60min}=\frac{2}{3}hr[/tex]

[tex]3hr+\frac{2}{3}hr=\frac{11}{3}hr[/tex]

so now we can build our equation for time.

[tex]t_{up}+t_{down}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]

We also know that the rate is built by dividing the distance over the time it took them to travel the distance, so:

[tex]v_{up}=\frac{1}{t_{up}}[/tex]

[tex]v_{down}=\frac{1}{t_{down}}[/tex]

If we solved each of those equations for their respective times, we would end up with the following:

[tex]t_{up}=\frac{1}{v_{up}}[/tex]

[tex]t_{down}=\frac{1}{v_{down}}[/tex]

so we can now combine all the equations together so we get:

[tex]t_{up}+t_{down}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{v_{up}}+\frac{1}{v_{down}}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{v-2}+\frac{1}{v+2}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]

So this equation models the problem.

Step 5: We can solve this equation by multiplying everything by the LCD

In this case the LCD is:

3(v-2)(v+2)

so, when doing the respective multiplications we end up with:

[tex]\frac{3(v-2)(v+2)}{v-2}+\frac{3(v-2)(v+2)}{v+2}=\frac{11(3)(v-2)(v+2)}{3}[/tex]

We can now simplify to get:

3(v+2)+3(v-2)=11(v+2)(v-2)

We can now do the respective multiplications to get:

[tex]3v+6+3v-6=11(v^{2}-4)[/tex]

and we can further simplify:

[tex]6v=11v^{2}-44[/tex]

Step 5: So we can now solve it by using the quadratic formula, first, we need to rewrite the equation in standard form:

[tex]11v^{2}-6v-44=0[/tex]

So we can now use the quadratic formula:

[tex]v=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

we substitute:

[tex]v=\frac{-(-6) \pm \sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4(11)(-44)}}{2(11)}[/tex]

and simplify:

[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+1936}}{22}[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{1972}}{22}[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{4(493)}}{22}[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm 2\sqrt{493}}{22}[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{493}}{11}[/tex]

this gives us two possible results:

[tex]v=\frac{3 + \sqrt{493}}{11}[/tex] and [tex]v=\frac{3 - \sqrt{493}}{11}[/tex]

Step 6: We only pick the first result since it's the positive result. We don't take the second one because a negative result represents the kayak moving in the opposite direction which is not how the situation was modeled.

One equation in a system of two linear equations is
shown above. If the system has one solution (x, y),
where x = 2, which of the following could be the
other equation in the system?
A) y = -2x + 4
B) y = -x+ 5
C) y = 2x
D) y = 2x + 1

Answers

Answer:  B) y = -x+ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the x-value in the solution (x, y) is 2, then the y-value is:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} (2)+2 = \frac{2}{2} +2=1+2=3[/tex]

So the solution coordinate is (2, 3).

Test each of the answer choices to see if whether the y-value is 3 when the x-value is 2. If it's true, then it could be the other equation in the system.

A) y = -2x + 4

[tex]y = -2x + 4\\\y = -2(2) + 4 = -4 + 4 = 0[/tex]

B) y = -x+ 5

[tex]y = -x+ 5\\y = -(2) + 5 = 5 - 2 =3[/tex]
