QUESTION 6 The scale on a map is given as 1 : 320,000. If the distance between the top of the two mountains on the map is 6.8cm, what is the actual distance in kilometres between the two tops of the mountain. ? show working out to prove answer.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The actual distance is of 21.76 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale problems are solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

The scale on a map is given as 1 : 320,000

This means that each unit on the map represents 320,000 units of distance.

Distance between the top of the two mountains on the map is 6.8cm

Then

1 cm - 320,000 cm

6.8 cm - x

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]x = 6.8*320000 = 2176000[/tex]

Distance in kilometers

To convert from centimeters to kilometers, we divide by 100000. So

2176000/100000 = 21.76

The actual distance is of 21.76 kilometers.

Answer:

  5196 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in elevation is found by subtracting one elevation from the other. Usually, we're interested in the positive difference, so we subtract the smaller number from the larger.

  5040 -(-156) = 5040 +156 = 5196

The difference in elevation is 5196 meters.

From her eye, which stands 1,61 meters above the ground, Savannah measures the

a horizontal distance of 340 meters from the base of the skyscraper, what is the
height of the skyscraper? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a meter if
necessary

Answers

Answer:

152.99 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the solution diagram attached below :

We can obtain the height, h of skyscraper to the position of her eye level using trigonometry ;

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Tan 24 = h / 340

h = tan 24 * 340

h = 151.37775

Hence, the height will be (h + distance from eyelevel to ground)

151.37775 + 1.61

= 152.98775

= 152.99 m

Answers

Answer:

2,165 + 2571 + 1,678 = 6,414

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say;

=> 2,165 + unknown number + 1,678 = 6,414

So let's add like terms first;

=> 3,843 + unknown number = 6,414

=> unknown number = 6,414 - 3,843

=> unknown number = 2571

Hope this helps!

Answer:

2571

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the blank.

2165 + x + 1678 = 6414

3843 + x = 6414 (combine like terms)

x = 2571

First we find out the area of circle, and then subtract the area of triangle from it to find the area of the shaded region

Area of Circle

Here, r=radius

area of circle= π×r²

                     = π × 5²     (radius=half of diameter)

                     = 25π

                     = 78.54cm²

Area of Triangle

Here, b=base, h=height

area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2\\}[/tex]×b×h

                          = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]×8×6

                          = 24cm²

Area of shaded region= area of circle - area of triangle

                                     = 78.54 - 24

                                     = 54.54

                                     ≈ 54.5cm² [Ans]

A public health organization reports that 30% of baby boys 6 - 8 months old in the United States weigh more than 20 pounds. A sample of 15 babies is studied. Round the answers to three decimal places. Part 1 of 4 (a) What is the probability that exactly 5 of them weigh more than 20 pounds

Answers

Answer:

0.206 = 20.6% probability that exactly 5 of them weigh more than 20 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each baby, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they weigh more than 20 pounds, or they do not. The probability of a baby weighing more than 20 pounds is independent of any other baby, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

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.

A public health organization reports that 30% of baby boys 6 - 8 months old in the United States weigh more than 20 pounds.

This means that [tex]p = 0.3[/tex]

A sample of 15 babies is studied.

This means that [tex]n = 15[/tex]

What is the probability that exactly 5 of them weigh more than 20 pounds

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_{15,5}.(0.3)^{5}.(0.7)^{10} = 0.206[/tex]

0.206 = 20.6% probability that exactly 5 of them weigh more than 20 pounds.

After the first exam in a statistics course, the professor surveyed 14 randomly-selected students to determine the relation between the amount of time they spent studying for the exam and exam score. She found that a linear relation exists between the two variables. The least-squares regression line that describes this relation is: y​=6.3333x+53.0298.

Required:
a. Predict the exam score of a student who studies 2 hours.
b. Interpret the slope.
c. What is the mean score of students who did not study?
d. A student who studies 5 hours for the exam scored 81 on the exam. Is this student's exam score above or below average among all students who studies 5 hours?

Answers

Solution :

Given :

Equation :

y = 6.3333 x + 53.0298

Here, x = number of hours studied

         y = the exam score

a). To predict the exam score, we have to replace x in the least square regression line by 2 :

   y = 6.3333 x + 53.0298

   y = 6.3333 (2) + 53.0298

      = 65.6964

Thus he predicted exam score is 65.6964

b). The slope is the co-efficient of x in the least squares regression line :

  Slope = 6.3333

 The slope represents the average increase in y as x increases by 1.

  The exam score increases on average by 6.3333 points per hour studied.

c). The mean score of the [tex]\text{ students who did not study}[/tex] (studied 0 hours) is obtained by replacing x in the least squares regression line by 0 :

  y = 6.3333 x + 53.0298        

 y = 6.3333 (0) + 53.0298

    = 53.0298

d). To predict the exam score of a student who studied 5 hours, we replace x in the least squares regression line by 2 :

   y = 6.3333 x + 53.0298

   y = 6.3333 (5) + 53.0298

   y = 84.6963

Thus the average exam score of a student who studied 5 hours is 84.6963

Since the actual exam score 81 is less than the average exam score of 84.6963 the student's exam score is below the average.

Two dice are thrown together. Use a tree diagram to find the probability that both numbers are less than 5

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 dice = 12 numbers

1, 2, 3, 4 and 1, 2, 3, 4 are less than five.

This is a total of 8 numbers.

[tex]\frac{8}{12} =\frac{8/4}{12/4}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The probability that both numbers are less than 5 on throwing 2 dices is given by P ( A ) = 4/9 = 44.44 %

What is Probability?

The probability that an event will occur is measured by the ratio of favorable examples to the total number of situations possible

Probability = number of desirable outcomes / total number of possible outcomes

The value of probability lies between 0 and 1

Given data ,

Let the probability that both numbers are less than 5 on throwing 2 dices be represented as P ( A )

Now , the total number of outcomes for throwing 2 dices = 36 outcomes

And , out of these 36 possible outcomes, there are 16 outcomes where both numbers are less than 5

{(1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (2,1), (2,2), (2,3),

(3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3),

(1,4), (2,4), (3,4), (4,4)}

So , the number of possible outcomes = 16

And , probability P ( A ) = 16/36

P ( A ) = 4/9

Hence , the probability is 4/9
