In a picture, a man measures 2.3 cm. His actual height is 1.78 m. He is standing beside a flagpole that measures 7.6 cm in the picture. What is the actual height of the flagpole, to the nearest tenth of a meter?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5.88 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of scale factor which uses the concept of ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of length of actual figure to length of its model.

Example: if an architect is drawing design for a building

if height of building is 100 meter but he is drawing this on paper of 1 meter then scale factor will 100/ 1= 100: 1.

It means that for every 100 meter of length of building, it can be represented by 1 meter of its model.

Thus if a building has length 200 meter then its model will be of 200/100 = 2 meter length.

______________________________________

We will solve the given problem based on use of this concept.

Height of man = 1.78 meter

since in picture unit of measure is in cm, lets convert 1.78 meter to centimetre.

1 meter = 100 cm

1.78 meter  = 100* 1.78 cm = 178 cm

height of man in picture = 2.3 cm

Scale factor = actual Height of man/Height of man in picture

              = 178/2.3 = 77391

_________________________________________

ratio of actual height of flagpole /  height of flagpole = actual Height of man/Height of man in picture

Substituting the value given in problem we have

actual height of flagpole/7.6 =  178/2.3

=>actual height of flagpole =  (178/2.3)* 7.6 = 588.172 cm.

Thus height of pole is 588.172 cm.

In meter, height of pole is 588.172*100 cm

height of pole is 5.88 meters

A cosine function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. The amplitude of the function is 11, the vertical shift is 9 units down, and the period of the function is 7pi/12. The graph of the function does not show a phase shift. What is the equation of the cosine function described?

Fill in the blanks using values from this list: -20, -11, -9, -2, 2, 9, 11, 20, 7pi/12,12pi/7,7/24,24/7

f(x)=___cos(_____x)______

Answers

We have been given that a cosine function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. The amplitude of the function is 11, the vertical shift is 9 units down, and the period of the function is [tex]\frac{7\pi}{12}[/tex]. The graph of the function does not show a phase shift. We are asked to write the equation of our function.

We know that general form a cosine function is [tex]y=A\cos(b(x-c))-d[/tex], where,

A = Amplitude,

[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex] = Period,

c = Horizontal shift,

d = Vertical shift.    

The equation of parent cosine function is [tex]y=\cos(x)[/tex]. Since function is reflected about x-axis, so our function will be [tex]y=-\cos(x)[/tex].

Let us find the value of b.

[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{7\pi}{12}[/tex]

[tex]7\pi\cdot b=24\pi[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7\pi\cdot b}{7\pi}=\frac{24\pi}{7\pi}[/tex]

[tex]b=\frac{24}{7}[/tex]

Upon substituting our given values in general cosine function, we will get:

[tex]f(x)=-11\cos(\frac{24}{7}x)-9[/tex]

Therefore, our required function would be [tex]f(x)=-11\cos(\frac{24}{7}x)-9[/tex].

A package of books weighs 72 ounces. What is the weight of the package in pounds?

Answers

Answer: 4.5 pounds

Explanation: To convert 72 ounces into pounds, we use the conversion factor for ounces and pounds which is 16 ounces = 1 pound.

Next, notice that we're going from a smaller unit, ounces, to a larger unit, pounds and when we go from a smaller unit to a larger unit, we divide. So here, we divide 72 by the conversion factor, 16, to get 4.5.

So 72 ounces equals 4.5 pounds.

You are tiling the floor of a 6-foot by 8-foot bathroom. The sink occupies a 3-foot by 2-foot area and the bathtub occupies a 5-foot by 3-foot area. You do not need to tile the area occupied by the sink or bathtub. How much of the floor, in square feet, do you need to tile?

Answers

Answer:

The floor, in square feet, you need to tile is [tex]27ft^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes.

To solve this problem we need to calculate the areas of the sink and the bathtub and subtract it from the the area of the the bathroom, the result is the amount of space you need to tile

Step one

Area of sink

[tex]area= length * width\\ area= 3* 2 = 6 ft^{2}[/tex]

Area of bathtub

[tex]area= length * width \\area= 5*3\\area= 15ft^{2} \\[/tex]

Area of bathroom

[tex]area= length* width\\ area = 8* 6\\area=48ft^{2}[/tex]

Step two

To calculate the area we need to tile

let us subtract the areas of the bathtub and the sink from the bathroom we have

[tex]= 48-15-6\\=27ft^{2}[/tex]

Erica has a small metal treasure box. The inside of the box is 3 inches wide, 6 inches long, and 4 inches deep. Erica wants to line the box with fabric to protect the items she puts in the box. How many square inches of fabric will she need? Show your work

Answers

Answer: she will need 108 square inches of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of square inches of fabric that she will need, we would determine the surface area of the inner part of the box. The formula for determining the surface area of a box or cuboid is expressed as

Surface area = (2lw + 2lh + 2wh)

Where

l represents length of the box = 6 inches

w represents width of the box = 3 inches

h represents height of the box = 4 inches

Therefore,

Surface area = (2 × 6 × 3) + (2 × 6 × 4) + (2 × 3 × 4) = 108 inches²

​ find slope and y-intercept

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x + 3  → Gradient / slope = 2 → Y - intercept = 3

y = -3x + 3 → Gradient / slope = -3 → Y - intercept = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + c

This is the standard way an equation of a line is written. The 'm' of the line is the slope/gradient and the 'c' is the y - intercept. You can find the x-intercept by making y = 0. When the questions asks you to find the gradient you should never put 'x' after it only the number so

y = 2x + 3

Gradient / slope = 2

Y - intercept = 3

y = -3x + 3

Gradient / slope = -3

Y - intercept = 3

There are a total of 193 member states (countries) in the united nations as of 2014.The member states are divided into regional groups. The asia group has one less member than the africa group. The european groups are smaller: eastern europe has four less than half the africa group. The western europe group (which includes the united states) has 6 more than eastern europe. The latin america group has 21. Less than the africa group. One country (kiribati, in the central pacific ocean) is in no regional group at all. How many countries are in each of the five groups?

Answers

Answer:

Africa = 54 countries

Asia = 53 countries

Eastern Europe = 23 countries

Western Europe = 29 countries

Latin America = 33 countries

Step-by-step explanation:

193 member states - Kiribati = 192 countries

Asia = Africa - 1

Eastern Europe = 0.5Africa - 4

Western Europe = 0.5Africa + 2

Latin America = Africa - 21

Africa

Africa + (Africa - 1) + (0.5Africa - 4) + (0.5Africa + 2) + (Africa - 21) = 192

4Africa - 24 = 192

4Africa = 192 + 24 = 216

Africa = 216 / 4 = 54

Asia = 54 - 1 = 53

Eastern Europe = 0.5(54) - 4 = 23

Western Europe = 0.5(54) + 2 = 29

Latin America = 54 - 21 = 33

Africa is = 54 countries

Asia is = 53 countries

Eastern Europe is = 23 countries

Then, Western Europe is = 29 countries

After that, Latin America = 33 countries

What is Logical Data Grouping?

Then, 193 member states - Kiribati = 192 countries

After that, Asia = Africa - 1

Now, Eastern Europe = 0.5Africa - 4

Western Europe is = 0.5Africa + 2

Latin America is = Africa - 21

Africa

Africa + (Africa - 1) + (0.5Africa - 4) + (0.5Africa + 2) + (Africa - 21) = 192

4Africa - 24 = 192

4Africa = 192 + 24 = 216

Africa = 216 / 4 = 54

Asia = 54 - 1 = 53

Eastern Europe = 0.5(54) - 4 = 23

Western Europe = 0.5(54) + 2 = 29

Therefore, Latin America = 54 - 21 = 33

1,042 square inches
1,072 square inches
O 1.992 square inches

Answers

Answer:

1042 square inches is the total surface area of composite solid.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is clear from the image that the resulting composite solid is a cuboid.

whose sides are as follows:

Across the length there are 3 blocks along the side of 7 inches each.

Length = [tex]7 \times 3 = 21\ inch[/tex]

Width = 5 inch

Across the height there are 4 blocks along the side of 4 inches each.

Height = [tex]4 \times 4 = 16\ inch[/tex]

We know that total surface area of a cuboid is as follows:

[tex]\text{Total Surface Area = } 2 (l\times w+ w \times h+ h \times l)[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 2 (21 \times 5 + 16 \times 21 + 16 \times 5 )\\\Rightarrow 2 (105 + 336+80)\\\Rightarrow 2 \times 521\\\Rightarrow 1024[/tex]

Hence, total surface area = 1024 square inches
