Two Boys are building a skateboard ramp. They want the ramp to be 3 feet tall and 5 feet long. One of them thinks that they can use a piece of plywood that is 4 feet long to cover the top of the frame.

This is one of theirs work.

a2 + b2 = c2
32 + b2 = 52
9 + b2 = 25
b2 = 16
b = 16−−√
b = 4

Why is his reasoning incorrect? Explain.


How long does the piece of plywood have to be to cover the top of the frame of the skateboard ramp? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot. Show your work.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. Types of triangles are acute, obtuse, scalene, isosceles, equilateral and right angled triangle.

Pythagoras theorem states that for a right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the remaining two sides.

The ramp has the form of a triangle. The height of the ramp is the vertical side of a triangle, the top of the frame is the hypotenuse while the length of the ramp is the base side of the triangle.

Let the hypotenuse be b Hence:

b² = 3² + 5²

b² = 9 + 25

b² = 34

b = 5.83 feet

Arithmetic Sequence: [tex]a_{n} =a_{n-1} +d[/tex]

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (4,5) and has a slope of -2.

Answers

Answer:

y = - 2x + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 , then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (4, 5) into the partial equation

5 = - 8 + c ⇒ c = 5 + 8 = 13

y = - 2x + 13 ← equation of line

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope=-2

now using slope intercet formof equation of straight line,we get

y=mx+b

or, y=-2x + b

y + 2x =b

2x + y=b ......................   eq(i)

since the line passes through the point (4,5) it satisfies the equation (i)

y=5 and x=4 so,

equation is 2x +y =b

2*4 + 5=b

8+5=b

13=b

substituting the value of b in eq(i)

2x + y=b

2x + y=13

2x + y-13=0  is the required equation of the line.

The answer is
yes or

Answers

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

so in order for it to be a right triangle this would have to be true:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

since c represents the hypoteneuse, it will be the longest side. so:

60^2 + 63^2 = 88^2

3600 + 3969 = 7744

7569 = 7744

since that statement is not true, the answer is no.

it is not a right triangle  

the square root of 7569 is 87, so the triple would have to be : {60,63,87}

The ratio of the dimensions of the model to the dimensions of the Great Pyramid is about 1 to 38. The surface area of the real pyramid is about how many times the surface area of the model.
Dimensions: a pyramid with a square base.
base sides: 6m
height: 4m

Answers

Answer:   1444

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

Explanation:

Consider a square on paper that is 3 inches by 3 inches. It's area would be 3*3 = 9 square inches.

The ratio 1 to 38 means that 1 inch on paper corresponds to 38 inches in real life (assuming the "1 to 38" doesn't have any verbal units attached to it; if so, then refer to the note below). So a 3 by 3 square corresponds to a 114 by 114 square because 3*38 = 114.

The area of the second larger square is 114*114 = 12,996 square inches.

Now divide the two areas: (12,996)/(9) = 1444

It's probably not entirely obvious, but through a bit of playing around with various numbers, you should find that 38^2 = 1444. It's not a coincidence that this happens. The linear scale factor is 38 which means the area scale factor is 38^2 = 1444.

In short, the larger square in real life has area that is 1444 times that of its scaled down counterpart.

Or put another way:

large area = 1444*(small area)

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

Side note: This all assumes that the numbers in "1 to 38" are both the same unit. If we had a mixed ratio of units like "1 inch to 38 feet", then the answer would be different. You would need to convert from feet to inches, and then follow the steps above to get a different answer.

The time , in hours , it takes to repair an electrical breakdown in a certain factory is represent by a random variable x where repair time follow a normal distribution with mean 5 hour and standard deviation 1 hour , if 5 electrical breakdown ore randomly chosen , Find the probability that ( a all repaired time below 6 hours ( b ) exactly 3 of them repaired below 6 hours

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.4215 = 42.15% probability that all are repaired in less than 6 hours.

b) 0.15 = 15% probability that exactly 3 of them repaired in a time below 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal and the binomial probability distributions.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Proportion repaired below 6 hours:

Mean 5 hours and standard deviation 1 hour, which means that [tex]\mu = 5, \sigma = 1[/tex]

This proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 6. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{6 - 5}{1}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8413.

0.8413 repaired below 6 hours.

For the binomial distribution, this means that [tex]p = 0.8413[/tex]

5 are chosen:

This means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

a) Probability that all are repaired in less than 6 hours

This is P(X = 5). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.8413)^{5}.(0.1587)^{0} = 0.4215[/tex]

0.4215 = 42.15% probability that all are repaired in less than 6 hours.

b) Probability that exactly 3 of them repaired below 6 hours

This is P(X = 3). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{5,3}.(0.8413)^{3}.(0.1587)^{2} = 0.15[/tex]

0.15 = 15% probability that exactly 3 of them repaired in a time below 6 hours

Mention any two? The owner of a one-acre parcel of land with a small house on it rented the property to a professor of a nearby college at a monthly rental of $500. Several years later, after the professor got tenure, the parties orally agreed that the professor would purchase the property from the owner for the sum of $60,000, payable at the rate of $500 a month for 10 years. They agreed that the owner would give the professor a deed to the property after five years had passed and $30,000 had been paid toward the purchase price, and that the professor would execute a note secured by a mortgage for the balance. The professor continued in possession of the property and made all monthly payments in a timely fashion.
