To Indirectly Measure The Distance Across A Lake, Nachelle Makes Use Of A Couple Landmarks At Points

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

207.68 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram,

ΔDEC is similar to ΔFGC

Therefore,

(DE)/(FG) = (DC)/(FC).............. Equation 1

make line DE the subject of the equation

DE = [(DC)(FG)/(FC)]................ Equation 2

From the diagram,

Given: DC = 190 m, FG = 142.1 m, FC = 130 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

DE = (190×142.1/130)

DE = 207.68 m

Hence the distance across the lake is 207.68 m

Answer 2

Applying the similarity theorem, the distance across the lake to the nearest hundredth is: DE = 207.68 m

Recall:

The corresponding side lengths of two triangles that are similar are always proportional to each other.

Thus:

ΔCDE  and ΔCFG are similar to each other

FG = 142.1 m

FC = 130 m

DF = 60 m

DC = 130 + 60 = 190 m

Therefore:

DE/FG = DC/FC

Substitute

DE/142.1 = 190/130

Cross multiply

[tex]DE = \frac{190 \times 142.1}{130} \\\\\mathbf{DE = 207.68 $ m}[/tex] (nearest hundredth).

Therefore, applying the similarity theorem, the distance across the lake to the nearest hundredth is: DE = 207.68 m

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 4)^2 - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent function: f(x) = x^2

To show this in a way that may look more familiar, f(x) = 1(x - 0)^2 + 0

Vertex form: f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k

We know a = 1, because the slope is the same as the parent function.

Vertex: (h,k)

We can see that the vertex of the graph is (-4, -5)

So h = -4 and k = -5

Now all we need to do is plug the variables into our equation.

f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k

f(x) = 1(x + 4)^2 - 5

f(x) = (x + 4)^2 - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The pH value of the apple juice is 3.5, option C) is the correct answer.

The pH value of the ammonia is 8.9, option D) is the correct answer.

What is pH of solution?

The pH of a solution is defined as the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration  [H+] of the given solution.

From the formular;

pH = -log[ H⁺ ]

Given the data in the question.

For the Apple juice;

hydrogen ion concentration H⁺ = 0.0003 pH of the apple juice pH = ?

pH = -log[ H⁺ ]

pH = -log[ 0.0003 ]

pH = 3.5

The pH value of the apple juice is 3.5

Option C) is the correct answer.

For the ammonia;

hydrogen ion concentration H⁺ = 1.3 × 10⁻⁹pH of the ammonia pH = ?

pH = -log[ H⁺ ]

pH = -log[ 1.3 × 10⁻⁹]

pH = 8.9

The pH value of the ammonia is 8.9

Option D) is the correct answer.

An item was marked down 64% from its original price,x . The amount discounted was $30. Which equation can be used to find the original price

Answers

Answer:

OP = discount amount × 100 / discount %

Step-by-step explanation:

if I understand this correctly, the actual sale price was 36% (100-64) of the originally marked price.

original price (OP) = 100%

64% of OP = 30

1% of OP = 30/64

OP (100%) = 100 × 30/64

this could be simplified to 100 × 15/32, but this hinders is finding the global formula :

Last year there were 221 students and 12 teachers at Hilliard School. This year there are 272 students. The principal wants to keep the same student to teacher ratio as last year. Which proportion can the principal use to find x, the number of teacher needed this year?

Answers

Answer:

3264:221

Step-by-step explanation:

If by last year there were 221 students and 12 teachers at Hilliard School, then;

221students = 12teachers

To find the equivalent ratio for 272students, we can say;

272students = x teachers

Divide both expressions

221/272 = 12/x

Cross multiply

221 * x = 272 * 12

221x = 3264

x = 3264/221

x = 3264:221

This gives the required proportion

A) Increase the sample size and increase the confidence level.
B) Decrease the sample size and increase the confidence level.
C) Decrease the sample size and decrease the confidence level.
D) Increase the sample size and decrease the confidence level.

Answers

Answer: D) Increase the sample size and decrease the confidence level.

Step-by-step explanation:

A reduced interval width means that the data is more accurate. This can only be achieved if the sample size is increased because a larger sample size is able to capture more of the characteristics of the variables being tested.

A smaller confidence interval will also lead to a reduced interval width because it means that the chances of the prediction being correct have increased.

Lindsey is a member of the swim team at a local university. She has been working hard to perfect her dive for an upcoming swim meet. Lindsey's dive can be modeled by the quadratic equation y = – 16x2 + 33x + 45, where x is time in seconds, and y is Lindsey's height in the air in feet.

Answers

Answer:

There is no actual question here, this is just a statement.

re-read the question .... i assume it says "what is the highest that she will get during a dive?"

highest point is at t = 33/32  

– 16(33/32)^2 + 33(33/32) + 4 =

62.015625

Step-by-step explanation:

Lindsey will be 30 feet in the air at approximately 1.09 seconds and 2.48 seconds.

To find the time at which Lindsey will be 30 feet in the air, we need to solve the quadratic equation y = -16x² + 33x + 45 for x when y = 30.

Setting y equal to 30, we have:

30 = -16x² + 33x + 45

Rearranging the equation, we have:

16x² - 33x - 15 = 0

To solve this quadratic equation, we can factor or use the quadratic formula. In this case, factoring might be more challenging, so we'll use the quadratic formula:

x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

Plugging in the values from our equation, we have:

x = (-(-33) ± √((-33)² - 4(16)(-15))) / (2(16))

Simplifying, we get:

x = (33 ± √(1089 + 960)) / 32

x = (33 ± √(2049)) / 32

Calculating the square root of 2049, we have:

x = (33 ± √(2049)) / 32

x ≈ 1.09 or x ≈ 2.48

Determine the values of xfor which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001.(Enter your answer using interval notation. Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The values of x for which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001 is 0 < x < 0.3936.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Determine the values of x for which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001. f(x) = e^x ≈ 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3!, x < 0

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Given:

f(x) = e^x ≈ 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3!, x < 0 …………….. (1)

[tex]R_{3}[/tex] = (x) = (e^z /4!)x^4

Since the aim is [tex]R_{3}[/tex](x) < 0.001, this implies that:

(e^z /4!)x^4 < 0.0001 ………………………………….. (2)

Multiply both sided of equation (2) by (1), we have:

e^4x^4 < 0.024 ……………………….......……………. (4)

Taking 4th root of both sided of equation (4), we have:

|xe^(z/4) < 0.3936 ……………………..........…………(5)

Dividing both sides of equation (5) by e^(z/4) gives us:

|x| < 0.3936 / e^(z/4) ……………….................…… (6)

In equation (6), when z > 0, e^(z/4) > 1. Therefore, we have:

|x| < 0.3936 -----> 0 < x < 0.3936

Therefore, the values of x for which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001 is 0 < x < 0.3936.

P(female | pink lemonade ) = P(pink lemonade) = 0.3. P(pink lemonade | female) = 0.3 and P(pink lemonade) = 0.6. P(female | pink lemonade ) = 0.3 and P(pink lemonade) = 0.6.

Given

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{} & {Male} & {Female} & {Pink} & {156} & {72} \ \\ {Yellow} & {104} & {48} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Required

Why [tex]prefers\ pink\ lemonade[/tex] and [tex]female[/tex] are independent

First, calculate [tex]P(pink |\ female)[/tex]

This is calculated as:

[tex]P(pink |\ female) = \frac{n(pink\ \&\ female)}{n(female)}[/tex]

[tex]P(pink |\ female) = \frac{72}{48+72}[/tex]

[tex]P(pink |\ female) = \frac{72}{120}[/tex]

[tex]P(pink |\ female) = 0.6[/tex]

Next, calculate [tex]P(pink)[/tex]

[tex]P(pink) = \frac{n(pink)}{n(Total)}[/tex]

[tex]P(pink) = \frac{156 + 72}{156 + 72 + 104 + 48}[/tex]

[tex]P(pink) = \frac{228}{380}[/tex]

[tex]P(pink) = 0.6[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(pink) = P(pink |\ female) = 0.6[/tex]

Hence, they are independent

P(pink lemonade | female) = P(pink lemonade) = 0.6.
