In his 2011 State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama said:
"To attract new businesses to our shores, we need the fastest, most reliable ways to move people, goods, and information—from high-speed rail to high-speed Internet. Our infrastructure used to be the best, but our lead has slipped. The jobs created by the transcontinental railroad & the Interstate Highway System didn't just come from laying down track or pavement. They came from businesses that opened near a town's new train station or the new off-ramp.

We've begun rebuilding for the 21st century. And tonight, I'm proposing that we redouble those efforts. We'll put more Americans to work repairing crumbling roads and bridges. Within 25 years, our goal is to give 80% of Americans access to high-speed rail. Within the next five years, we'll make it possible for businesses to deploy the next generation of high-speed wireless coverage to 98% of all Americans. This isn't just about faster Internet or fewer dropped calls. It's about connecting every part of America to the digital age."

Answer:  136 square feet

=======================================================

Explanation:

The front face is a triangle with base 6 and height 4.

The area is 0.5*base*height = 0.5*6*4 = 12 square feet

The back face is also 12 square feet since the front and back faces are identical triangles.

So far we have 12+12 = 24 square feet of surface area.

--------------------

The bottom face, that runs along the floor or ground, is a rectangle that is 6 ft by 7 ft. So we have 6*7 = 42 square feet of surface area here. This adds onto the 24 we found earlier to get 24+42 = 66 square feet so far.

To find the left and right upper faces, we'll need to find the length of the hypotenuse first. The 6 ft cuts in half to 3 ft. The right triangle on the left has side lengths of 4 ft and 3 ft as the two legs. Use the pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse is 5 ft. We have a 3-4-5 right triangle.

This means the upper left face is 5 ft by 7 ft leading to an area of 5*7 = 35 square feet. The same can be said about the upper right face.

So we add on 35+35 = 70 more square feet to the 66 we found earlier to get a grand total of 70+66 = 136 square feet of surface area.

Answer:

The angles of the triangle are approximately 87.395º, 57.271º and 35.334º.

Step-by-step explanation:

From statement we know all sides of the triangle ([tex]a[/tex], [tex]b[/tex], [tex]c[/tex]), but all angles are unknown ([tex]A[/tex], [tex]B[/tex], [tex]C[/tex]). (Please notice that angles with upper case letters represent the angle opposite to the side with the same letter but in lower case) From Geometry it is given that sum of internal angles of triangles equal 180º, we can obtain the missing information by using Law of Cosine twice and this property mentioned above.

If we know that [tex]a = 19[/tex], [tex]b = 16[/tex] and [tex]c = 11[/tex], then the missing angles are, respectively:

Angle A

[tex]a^{2} = b^{2}+c^{2}-2\cdot b\cdot c \cdot \cos A[/tex] (1)

[tex]A = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{b^{2}+c^{2}-a^{2}}{2\cdot b\cdot c} \right)[/tex]

[tex]A = \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{16^{2}+11^{2}-19^{2}}{2\cdot (16)\cdot (11)} \right][/tex]

[tex]A \approx 87.395^{\circ}[/tex]

Angle B

[tex]b^{2} = a^{2}+c^{2}-2\cdot a\cdot c \cdot \cos B[/tex] (2)

[tex]B = \cos^{-1}\left(\frac{a^{2}+c^{2}-b^{2}}{2\cdot a\cdot c} \right)[/tex]

[tex]B = \cos^{-1}\left[\frac{19^{2}+11^{2}-16^{2}}{2\cdot (19)\cdot (11)} \right][/tex]

[tex]B\approx 57.271^{\circ}[/tex]

Angle C

[tex]C = 180^{\circ}-A-B[/tex]

[tex]C = 180^{\circ}-87.395^{\circ}-57.271^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]C = 35.334^{\circ}[/tex]

The angles of the triangle are approximately 87.395º, 57.271º and 35.334º.

Answer:

the probability of a client owning stocks OR bonds is 0.825

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the probability of a client owning stocks OR bonds is given below:

= P(stocks) + P(bonds) - P(stocks and bonds)

= 0.60 + 0.50 - (0.55 × 0.50)

= 0.60 + 0.50 - 0.275

= 0.825

Hence, the probability of a client owning stocks OR bonds is 0.825

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf (x-5)^2+(y+9)^2=144}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for the equation of a circle is:

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

where (h,k)  is the center of the circle and r is the radius.

For this circle, the center is (5, -9) and the radius is 12. Therefore:

[tex]h= 5 \\k= -9 \\r=12[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex](x-5)^2+(y-(-9))^2=(12)^2[/tex]

Distrubute the -1 into the -9.

[tex](x-5)^2+(y+9)^2=(12)^2[/tex]

Solve the exponent.

[tex](x-5)^2+(y+9)^2=144[/tex]

The equation for the circle with a center (5,-9) and radius of 12 is (x-5)²+(y+9)²=144

Based on the calculations, the equation of this circle in standard form is equal to (x - 5)² +(y + 9)² = 144.

Mathematically, the standard form of an equation of a circle is given by;

(x - h)² +(y - k)² = r²

Where:

Given the following data:

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

(x - 5)² +(y - (-9))² = 12²

(x - 5)² +(y + 9)² = 144

Answer:

Scale factor = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the scale factor,

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{Measure of one side of the Image}}{\text{Measure of one side of the preimage}}[/tex]

In this question, image is triangle Y and preimage is triangle X.

Scale factor of X to Y = [tex]\frac{15}{10}[/tex]

                                    = 1.5

Therefore, scale factor = 1.5 is the answer.

Answer:

Explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is one that can be expressed in form a of a fraction whereby both the numerator and the denominator are integers.

Also, if it results in a recurring decimal it is still a rational number but if the decimal is not recurring, then it is not a rational number.

Now, for example let's consider the number 5.

It is a rational number because it can be expressed as; 5/1; 10/2; 20/4; -5/-1 e.t.c

Now, the opposite of these fractions like we are told to check in the question results in;

1/5; 2/10; 4/20; -1/-5;

The opposite will give us still a rational number because both numerator and denominator are still integers and also the value of the division is 0.2 which is a definite decimal and also can be expressed as an integer.
