A ladder that is 6 meters long leans
against a building. The base of the
ladder is 1.5 meters from the base
of the building. To the nearest
hundredth of a meter, how far up
the building does the ladder reach?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Height of building from base to ladder = 5.8 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of ladder = 6 meters

Distance of ladder from base = 1.5 meters

Find:

Height of building from base to ladder

Computation:

Perpendicular = √Hypotenuse² - Base²

Height of building from base to ladder = √Length of ladder² - Distance of ladder from base²

Height of building from base to ladder = √6² - 1.5²

Height of building from base to ladder = √36 - 2.25

Height of building from base to ladder = √33.75

Height of building from base to ladder = 5.8 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a data distribution, the first quartile, the median and the means are 30.8, 48.5 and 42.0

respectively. If the coefficient skewness is , use the information to answer

questions 9 and 10.

9. What is the approximate value of the third quartile

(Q3 ), correct to 2 decimal places?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Q_3 = 56.45[/tex] --- The third quartile

[tex]Var = 370.18[/tex] -- Variance

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Q_1 = 30.8[/tex] -- First quartile

[tex]Q_2 = 48.5[/tex] --- Median

[tex]\bar x = 42[/tex] --- Mean

[tex]Skp = -0.38[/tex] --- Coefficient of skewness

Solving (9): The third quartile [tex]Q_3[/tex]

This is calculated from

[tex]Skp = \frac{Q_1 + Q_3 - 2Q_2}{Q_3 - Q_1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]-0.38 = \frac{30.8 + Q_3- 2*48.5}{Q_3 - 30.8}[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]-0.38 (Q_3 - 30.8)= 30.8 + Q_3- 2*48.5[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]-0.38Q_3 + 11.704= 30.8 + Q_3- 97.0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]-0.38Q_3 -Q_3= 30.8 - 97.0- 11.704[/tex]

[tex]-1.38Q_3= -77.904[/tex]

Divide both sides -1.38

[tex]Q_3 = \frac{-77.904}{-1.38}[/tex]

[tex]Q_3 = 56.45[/tex] --- approximated

Solving (b): The variance

First, calculate the standard deviation from:

[tex]3IQR = 4SD[/tex]

[tex]IQR= Q_3 - Q_1[/tex]

So:

[tex]3IQR = 4SD[/tex]

[tex]3(Q_3 - Q_1) = 4SD[/tex]

Make SD the subject

[tex]SD = \frac{3}{4}(Q_3 - Q_1)[/tex]

[tex]SD = \frac{3}{4}(56.45 - 30.8)[/tex]

[tex]SD = \frac{3}{4}*25.65[/tex]

[tex]SD = \frac{3*25.65}{4}[/tex]

[tex]SD = \frac{76.95}{4}[/tex]

[tex]SD = 19.24[/tex]

So, the variance is:

[tex]Var = SD^2[/tex]

[tex]Var = 19.24^2[/tex]

[tex]Var = 370.18[/tex]

The temperature of the water in a coffeepot does not exceed 210 ° Fahrenheit. Let t be the temperature of the water in the coffeepot. Question Move a number, a variable, and a symbol to the line to create an inequality that represents this situation.

Answers

Answer:

t ≤ 210°

Step-by-step explanation:

If the temperature of the water in a coffeepot does not exceed 210°, this means that the temperature cannot be more than 210° and the required inequality sign that fits is ≤ (less than or equal to).

Since t is the temperature of the water in the coffeepot, the required inequality expression will be t ≤ 210°

Which value is equivalent to
3/11?
OA A. 0.27
O
B. 0.27
OC
C. 3.6
OD. 3.

Answers

Answer:

0.27 repeating.

Step-by-step explanation:

So to solve this we just have to use division.

1 clearly doesnt go into 3 at least one time, so we can add a decimal point and add a 0 to make it 30.

11 goes into 30 2 times, so we have:

0.2

and 30-22=8

So we can add another 0 and make it 80.

Then 11 goes into 80 7 times. So we have:

0.27

and 80-77=3

So again, add the 0, we have 30.

11 goes into 30 2 times, so:

0.272

and 30-22=8

Add another 0 we get 80.

11 goes into 80 7 times.

So finally, we have:

0.2727.

This is a repeating decimal.

This can be shown as:

0.27

So this is your answer!

I was a bit confused with which one it was on your answer key, but knowing that it is 0.27 I am guessing you can chose!

Hope this helps!

On a map of North Carolina, the distance between Raleigh and Charlotte is 3 1/4 inches. The scale on the map is 1 inch = 40 miles. What is the actual distance?

Answers

Answer:

130 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object

the scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension

scale of the drawing = original dimensions / dimensions of the scale drawing

Actual distance = 31/4 x 40

convert 31/4 to an improper fraction

to convert to improper fraction, take the following steps :  

1. Multiply the whole number  by the denominator

2. Add the numerator to the answer gotten in the previous step

3. divide the number gotten in the previous step by the denominator  

13/4 x 40 = 130 miles

f(x) = - 2(x - 3)² + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = - 2x² + 12x - 16 ( factor out - 2 from the first 2 terms )

      = - 2(x² - 6x) - 16

To complete the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 6x

f(x) = - 2(x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 - 9) - 16

The length of a cuboid is thrice the breadth and twice the length.if the volume of a box is 750 cm3 then find the measure of the box.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b is breadth and l is length of the cuboid such that,

Length, l = 3b and l = 2h

or

h = l/2

We know that, the volume of a cuboid box is given by :

V = lbh

Put all the values,

[tex]V=l\times \dfrac{l}{3}\times \dfrac{l}{2}\\\\750=l\times \dfrac{l}{3}\times \dfrac{l}{2}\\\\750\times 6=l^3\\\\l=(750\times 6)^{1/3}\\\\l=16.5\ cm[/tex]

Breadth, b = 16.5/3 = 5.5 cm

Height, h = 16.5/2 = 8.25 cm

Hence, this is the required solution.
