Calculating area of rectangle.

Your measurements Another student's measurements
Length (cm) 20.70 20.74
Width (cm) 10.44 10.46
Area (cm2) ________ ________

Required:
Why might two students have different calculated areas when measuring the same rectangle?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Your measurements; Area = 216.108 cm²

Another student's measurements; Area = 216.9404 cm²

- Difference in area could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they made use of different measuring tools.

Step-by-step explanation:

For Your measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.70 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.44 cm

Area of rectangle is given by; A = length × width = 20.7 × 10.44 = 216.108 cm²

For Another student's measurements;

Length of rectangle = 20.74 cm

Width of rectangle = 10.46 cm

Area = 20.74 × 10.46

Area = 216.9404 cm²

The areas they both obtained are not of equal values and this could be as a result of human error or perhaps that they used different measuring tools.

A milk truck carries milk with density 64.6 lb/ft3 in a horizontal cylindrical tank with diameter 8 ft.
(a) Find the force exerted by the milk on one end of the tank when the tank is full. (Round your answer to the nearest integer.) lb
(b) What if the tank is half full?

Answers

Answer:

a) 12989 Ib

b) 2756.3 Ib

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of milk = 64.6 Ib/ft^3

Diameter of tank = 8 ft

radius = 4 ft

a) Calculate force exerted by milk on one end of tank when Tank is full

pressure on strip ≈ 64.6 ( 4 - yi ) i.e. surface of milk = 4

Total force = 129.2 *  [tex]\int\limits^4_4 {4-y} \sqrt{16-y^2} \, dx[/tex]

∴Force exerted  = 129.2 * Area of semicircle( radius =4 ) * radius

                        = 129.2* 8π * 4 ≈  12989 Ib

b) Force exerted when Tank is half full

pressure on strip ≈ 64.6 ( 0 - yi )  i.e. surface of milk = 0

Total force = 129.2 * [tex]\int\limits^0_4 {0-y} \sqrt{16-y^2} \, dx[/tex]

∴ Force exerted ≈ 2756.3 Ib

Which box-and-whisker plot represents the data?

Answers

Answer: The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is definitely not B because the average of the numbers compared to what that shows don't make sense.

The biggest number that you gave us is 34 but on option A, it looks like its 30 or 31. So that's not correct.

Finally, it can't be D because the biggest number shown there is 35 when it actually is 34.

Shana has three pets, a dog, a cat and a bird. One of them is named Sammy. Noodles is younger than both the bird and the dog. Fluffy is green. Which pet has the name Sammy?

Answers

Answer:

The dog has the name Sammy.

Step-by-step explanation:

A cat and dog cannot be green, therefore the bird is Fluffly.

Noodles must be the cat since it's younger than the bird and the dog.

The only one that doesn't have an explanation is the dog, therefore the dog must be named Sammy.

Given the circle, find the arc measure.

Answers

Answer:

arc KLJ = 205°

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: measure of arc equals measure of central angle

Therefore:

measure of arc LJ = 56°

measure of arc KL = 149°

arc LJ + arc KL = arc KLJ

Substitute

56° + 149° = arc KLJ

205 = arc KLJ

arc KLJ = 205°

A)Chris and Alex Were Building a sand Castle. They Decided to make it into a cone shape. After some time, the diameter of the the sand shaped cone was 12in and the height was 7in. What is the exact volume of the sand cone?

B) the kids kept adding sand, ten minutes later the volume of the sand cone had increased by 30%. what is the exact volume of the sand cone now?

Answers

Answer:

A.) 84π | B.) 546π/5

Step-by-step explanation:

A.)

V(Cone) = πr²(h/3) where r = radius and h = height.

r = d/2 where d = diameter.

r = 12/2 = 6

V(Cone) = π(6)²(7/3) = π(36)(7/3) = 84π

B.)

84π · 0.3 = 126π/5

84π + 126π/5 = 546π/5

Candice works at a grocery store. She works 35 hours a week and
gets paid $8.50 an hour. For every hour over 35, Candice gets
paid $10 an hour. If she was paid $357.50 last week, how many
hours over 35 did Candice work?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

 6

Step-by-step explanation:

For 35 hours, Candice is paid ...

  ($8.50/h)(35 h) = $297.50

Any amount in excess of that is paid at $10 per hour. The amount of excess pay is ...

  $357.50 -297.50 = $60.00

Then the number of overtime hours was ...

  $60/($10/h) = 6 h

Candice worked 6 hours over 35 last week.

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. What is the probability of choosing a king and then, without replacement, a face card? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places

Answers

Answer:

0.0181 probability of choosing a king and then, without replacement, a face card.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Probability of choosing a king:

There are four kings on a standard deck of 52 cards, so:

[tex]P(A) = \frac{4}{52} = \frac{1}{13}[/tex]

Probability of choosing a face card, considering the previous card was a king.

12 face cards out of 51. So

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{12}{51}[/tex]

What is the probability of choosing a king and then, without replacement, a face card?

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B|A) = \frac{1}{13} \times \frac{12}{51} = \frac{1*12}{13*51} = 0.0181[/tex]

0.0181 probability of choosing a king and then, without replacement, a face card.

Sam asks five of his friends in his accelerated ELA class.
He finds that the average number of books read for this sample was 6.
Give two reasons why this sample might not be representative of the population that Sam is
trying to study

Answers

Answer:

1) Sam only interviewed five people out of his entire ELA class, so he doesn't have a very wide demographic to study

2) All of these people were Sam's friends, so they might all have similar interests or only enjoy certain things, and that doesn't allow for a wide range of data collection

Sample is too small (5 isn’t representative of his whole ELA class)

Sample isn’t representative as he only asks his friends (bias may be shown as Sam may know that his friends r avid or lazy readers). Not proportionate to the whole ELA class

which of the following is true because of the commutative law of multiplication
15*3=45
15*3=40+5
15*3=3*15
15*3=3*3*5​

Answers

Answer: Choice C

Explanation:

The commutative law of multiplication says that A*B = B*A, for any real numbers A,B. The order of multiplication doesn't matter.

That's why 15*3 is the same as 3*15.

This is because having 15 groups of 3 leads to 3+3+3+...+3 = 45 (imagine adding 15 copies of '3' together), and having 3 groups of 15 gets us 15+15+15 = 45 as well.

Or you could picture a rectangular table that has 15 rows and 3 columns. It has 45 inner cells. If the table had 3 rows and 15 columns, then we'd still have 45 inner cells.
