The length of the shadow of a flagpole was found to be 72 feet. The shadow of a 3 foot picket fence in line with the flagpole was 4 feet. What is the height of the flagpole.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

54ft

Step-by-step explanation:

if 3foot is 4ft tall

then a shadow of 72 ft will be how tall?= x

4x =3ft by 72ft

4x= 216ft

x= 216/4

×=54

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours. Together they charged a total of
$750. What was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $105 per hour?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

let's convert the statement into equation..

let the charge of 1st mechanic be x and second be y..

by the question..

10x+5y=750...(i)

x+y=105..(ii)

from eqn(ii)..

x+y=105

or, x=105-y...(iii)

substituting the value of x in eqn (i)..

10x+5y=750

or, 10(105-y)+5y=750

or, 1050-10y+5y=750

or, 1050-750=5y

or, y=300/5

•°• y=60

substituting the value of y in eqn(iii).

x=105-y

or, x=105-60

•°• x= 45..

the rate charged by two mechanics per hour was 60$ and 45$

If triangle ABC has the following measurements, what is the measure of angle B? a=5 b=7 c=10

Answers

Answer: about 40.54°

Step by step explanation:

7^2 =  5^2 + 10^2  - 2(5)(10)cos(B)

cos(B)  = (7^2 - 5^2 - 10^2) / (-2(5)(10) )

B = cos-1 [ (7^2 - 5^2 - 10^2) / (-2(5)(10) ]  =  cos-1 (.76) = about 40.54°

A wedge of cheese is shaped like a triangular prism. The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall. The base of the cheese is shaped like a triangle with a base of 11 and a height of 5 inches. If you ate this whole block of cheese, about how many cubic inches would you have eaten (ignoring the holes)?


420 in
193 in
385 in
210 in

Answers

Answer:

193 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a triangular prism:

The volume of a triangular prism is the base area multiplied by the wedge, that is:

[tex]V = A_bw[/tex]

The base area is one half times the triangle base times it's height, so:

[tex]V = 0.5*b*h*w[/tex]

The wedge of cheese is 7 inches tall.

This means that [tex]w = 7[/tex]

The base of the cheese is shaped like a triangle with a base of 11 and a height of 5 inches.

This means that [tex]b = 11, h = 5[/tex]

Volume:

[tex]V = 0.5*b*h*w = 0.5*11*5*7 = 192.5[/tex]

Rounding, approximately 193 in.

Two trains are 500 miles apart when they first start moving towards each other. If in two hours the distance between them is 300 miles and one train goes 20 miles faster than another, find the speed of the faster train. (Note: there are two possible solutions. Could you please find both?)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They travel 500 - 300 = 200 miles in 2 hours so their combined speed is

100 mph.

If their respective speed are x and y mph then we have the system

x + y = 100

x - y = 20

Adding the 2 equations

2x = 120

x = 60

and y = 40.

The other solution is that y = 60 mph and x = 40 mph.

At a large Midwestern university, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen in 1993 found that 20 of the sampled freshmen finished in the bottom third of their high school class. Admission standards at the university were tightened in 1995. In 1997, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen found that only 10 finished in the bottom third of their high school class. Let p 1 and p 2 be the proportions of all entering freshmen in 1993 and 1997, respectively, who graduated in the bottom third of their high school class. What is a 90% plus four confidence interval for p 1 – p 2?

Answers

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

p1 -> 1993

20 out of 100, so:

[tex]p_1 = \frac{20}{100} = 0.2[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{100}} = 0.04[/tex]

p2 -> 1997

10 out of 100, so:

[tex]p_2 = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.1*0.9}{100}} = 0.03[/tex]

Distribution of p1 – p2:

[tex]p = p_1 - p_2 = 0.2 - 0.1 = 0.1[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.04^2 + 0.03^2} = 0.05[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].  

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.1 - 1.645*0.05 = 0.01775 [/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.1 + 1.645*0.05 = 0.18225 [/tex]

The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

The length of a rectangle is four more than three times the width. If the perimeter of this rectangle is at least 70 square centimeters. Write an inequality that can be solved to find the width of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the triangle.

Let W represent the width of the triangle.

The length of a rectangle is four more than three times the width. This means that

L = 3W + 4

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

If the perimeter of this rectangle is at least 70 square centimeters, an inequality that can be solved to find the width of the rectangle is

2(L + W) ≥ 70

L + W ≥ 70/2

L + W ≥ 35

Answer:

6w +8 ≥70

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the width

The length is then 3w+4 ("the length is 4 more than 3 times the width")

Since a rectangle has opposite sides equal, the perimeter would be 2(l+w) or 2(w+3w+4) which would be 6w +8.  If the perimeter is at least 70, that is, 70 or more, the inequality would be

  6w + 8 ≥ 70.  

The units, however, would not be SQUARE centimeters, just centimeters.  If the question were asking for area, the units would be square units, but since perimeter is a linear measurement,  the units would have to be linear.

I) Find the volume in terms of pie

ii) curved surface area in terms of pie

iii) capacity in litres (correct to nearest litre)

Answers

Answer:

i) pi×4500 cm³

ii) pi×600 cm²

iii) 14 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

in general : the diameter is 30 cm, the radius is half of that (15 cm)

i)

the volume of a cylinder is base area times height.

Vc = pi×r²×h = pi×15²×20 = pi×225×20 = pi×4500 cm³

ii)

similar to volume, the side "mantle" area of the cylinder is the circumference of the base area times height.

surface area of the cylinder mantle is

Scm = 2×pi×r×h = 2×pi×15×20 = pi×30×20 = pi×600 cm²

iii)

for this we need now to do the multiplication with pi and then convert the cm³ to liters.

1 liter = a cube of 10 cm side length = 10×10×10 = 1000 cm³

pi×4500 = 14137.17 cm³ = 14.13717 liters or rounded 14 liters

Let a submarine be at a constant depth of 5 km. It is headed in the direction of a lighthouse. If the distance between the submarine and the base of the lighthouse is decreasing at a rate of 24 km/h when the sub is 13 km away from the base, then what is the speed of the submarine

Answers

Answer:

24 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Constant speed of submarine = 24 km/h

Depth under sea = 5 km

Distance of submarine from lighthouse = 13 km

Find:

Speed of the submarine

Computation:

At steady speed, the distance between both the submarine and the lighthouse base decreases at a rate of 24 km/hr.

So, when it is 13 kilometres from its starting point, the speed remains constant at 24 kilometres per hour.
