Solve the equation below.
3(17x – 6.5) = 108

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(17x – 6.5) = 108

Divide each side by 3

3/3(17x – 6.5) = 108/3

17x - 6.5 =36

Add 6.5 to each side

17x -6.5+6.5=36+6.5

17x = 42.5

Divide each side by 17

17x/17 = 42.5/17

x = 2.5

A cylindrical swimming pool is approximately 12 feet wide and 4 feet deep. About how many gallons of water can the swimming pool contain? Remember that 1 cubic foot is approximately 7.48 gallons.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the swimming pool is cylindrical, we would find its volume by applying the formula for determining the volume of a cylinder which is expressed as

Volume = πr²h

Where

r represents radius of the cylinder

h represents height

π = constant = 3.14

From the information given,

Diameter = 12 feet

Radius, r = diameter/2 = 12/2 = 6 feet

h = 4 feet

Volume = 3.14 × 6² × 4 = 452.16ft³

Since 1 cubic foot is approximately 7.48 gallons, the number of gallons of water that the swimming pool can contain is

452.16 × 7.48 = 3382.16 gallons

A triangle has sides with lengths of 8 centimeters, 14 centimeters, and 16 centimeters. Is it a right triangle?

Answers

Answer:

No, the triangle is not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to determine if the triangle having the lengths given in the question is a right triangle.

To answer this question, we need to take into consideration a very important property of right angle triangles.

The property is that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two other sides

The hypotenuse is the one with the longest length. Thus, the hypotenuse here is 16 centimeters.

Now let’s have the squares!

The square of the hypotenuse is 16 * 16 = 256

Let’s sum the squares of the other two sides;

(8 * 8) + ( 14 * 14) = 64 + 196 = 260

These squares are not equal so we can conclude that the triangle is not a right triangle

If bracelet Y is chosen first, in how many ways can Jillian give out the bracelets? 1 2 3 4

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.09

b) 2 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Probability Pedro's shot will score will be given as) :

P(score) = 0.30

The probability he will score in 2 consecutive shots will be calculated as:

P(score) * P(score)

= 0.30 * 0.30

= 0.09

Therefore, probability he will score in 2 consecutive shots is 0.09

b) Jillian has 3 bracelets: X, Y, & Z as a gift. If bracelet Y is chosen first, the number of ways Jillian can give out the bracelets since bracelet Y is chosen first, she will have 2 bracelets remaining. So, number of ways to distribute these 2 bracelets are :

= 2 * 1

= 2

Which could be in this order:

YXZ or YZX

Therefore, the number of ways if Y is chosen first is = 2 ways

Grace hit 12 balls in the batting cage out of 20 pitches. Tomorrow she is going to go to the same batting cage and get 30 pitches.
Use experimental probability to predict how many of the 30 pitches she will hit.

Answers

Answer:

she is expected to hit 18 out of the 30 pitches

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are required to use experimental probability to make a prediction.

From the hits she has today, we can estimate the number of hits she might be getting tomorrow.

Since she made 12 hits out of 20 today, the probability that she has a hit will be 12/20 = 3/5

Now if she is having 30 pitches tomorrow, the expected number of hits would be the probability of getting a hit multiplied by the total number of pitches.

That would be 3/5 * 30 = 18 pitches

Two​ fire-lookout stations are 14 miles ​apart, with station B directly east of station A. Both stations spot a fire. The bearing of the fire from station A is Upper N 35 degrees E and the bearing of the fire from station B is N 30 degrees W. How​ far, to the nearest tenth of a​ mile, is the fire from each lookout​ station?

Answers

The fire is a distance of 9.33 miles from Station A and 4.67 miles from Station B.

Let's denote the distance of the fire from station A as "x" and the distance of the fire from station B as "y".

From station A, the bearing of the fire is N 35° E. This means that if we draw a line connecting station A and the fire, the angle between this line and the north direction is 35°.

Similarly, from station B, the bearing of the fire is N 30° W. This means that the angle between the line connecting station B and the fire and the north direction is 30°.

Now, let's construct a triangle with vertices at Station A, station B, and the fire. The line connecting station A and station B represents the base of the triangle, and the lines connecting station A and the fire and station B and the fire represent the two sides of the triangle.

Since the triangle is isosceles (both sides are equal), the angles opposite the two sides will also be equal.

Let's denote the angle opposite side x as α and the angle opposite side y as β.

From the given bearings, we can determine the values of α and β:

α = 180° - 35° = 145°

β = 180° - 30° = 150°

Now, using the Law of Sines, we can set up the following ratios:

sin(α) / x = sin(β) / y

Solving for y, we get:

y = (sin(β) / sin(α)) * x

Substituting the known values, we have:

y = (sin(150°) / sin(145°)) * x

Using a calculator, we can evaluate the sin(150°) and sin(145°) to get:

y = (0.5 / 0.996) * x

y = 0.501 * x

Since the two stations are 14 miles apart, we know that x + y = 14.

Substituting the value of y from the previous equation, we have:

x + 0.501 * x = 14

1.501 * x = 14

x = 14 / 1.501

x ≈ 9.33

Now, to find the value of y, we can substitute the value of x into the equation:

y = 0.501 * x

y = 0.501 * 9.33

y ≈ 4.67

Therefore, the fire is 9.33 miles from Station A and 4.67 miles from Station B.

The fire is approximately 38.7 miles away from station A and 38.4 miles away from station B.

To solve this problem, we can use trigonometry and create a diagram to visualize the situation.

Now, let's label the diagram. We'll use the following labels:

A: Fire-lookout station A

B: Fire-lookout station B

F: Fire's location

Next, we need to determine the angles and distances involved. From the problem statement, we know the bearing of the fire from station A is N 35° E, and the bearing of the fire from station B is N 30° W. Let's mark these angles on the diagram.

To find the distance of the fire from each station, we can consider the angles formed between the stations and the fire. The sum of these angles should be 180° since we have a straight line. Let's find the missing angles by subtracting the given angles from 180°.

For station A:

Angle A = 180° - 35° = 145°

For station B:

Angle B = 180° - 30° = 150°

Now, let's draw lines from each station to the fire, and label the distances as dA and dB.

We can use trigonometry (specifically, the tangent function) to find the distances dA and dB. Tangent of an angle is equal to the opposite side divided by the adjacent side.

For station A:

tan(145°) = opposite side (dA) / adjacent side (14 miles)

dA = 14 * tan(145°)

For station B:

tan(150°) = opposite side (dB) / adjacent side (14 miles)

dB = 14 * tan(150°)

Now, let's calculate these distances using a calculator.

dA = 14 * tan(145°) ≈ 38.7 miles

dB = 14 * tan(150°) ≈ 38.4 miles

The perimeter of quadrilateral ABCD is 640. The perimeter of quadrilateral LMNO is 144. What is LM

Answers

Answer:

LM = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral is a shape with 4sides. There are different type of quadrilateral such as square, rectangle, trapezium, parallelogram, kite and rhombus.

Perimeter of a quadrilateral is the addition of all 4 sides.

Since the shape is not specified neither is there a diagram, let's assume the quadrilateral is a square.

See attachment for diagram used in solving the question.

Perimeter of square = length+ length+ length+ length

= 4× length

Perimeter of quadrilateral ABCD:

640 = 4×length

Length = 640/4

Length = 160

Perimeter of quadrilateral LMNO:

144 = addition of all 4 lengths

144 = LM + MN + NO +OL

Since we are considering a square all the sides are equal.

LM = MN = NO = OL

144 = 4×LM

LM = 144/4

LM = 36
