A 15 ft. Ladder is placed against a building so that the distance from the top of the ladder to the ground is 10 ft. Find the distance (to the nearest tenth) from the bottom of the ladder to the building

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  11.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the building meets the ground at right angles, the right triangle formed has side length 10 ft and hypotenuse 15 ft. Then the other side length (d) is given by the Pythagorean theorem as ...

  d² + 10² = 15²

  d² = 225 -100 = 125

  d = √125 = 5√5 ≈ 11.2 . . . feet

The bottom of the ladder is about 11.2 feet from the building

A boy thinks he has discovered a way to drink extra orange juice without alerting his parents. For every cup of orange juice he takes from a container of orange juice, he pours one cup of water back into the container. If he completes this process three times on the same container of juice, the resulting mixture will be exactly 50% water and 50% juice. How many cups of orange juice were originally in the container. (P.S ITS NOT 6)​

Answers

Answer:

4.847 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say x is number of cups of orange juice originally in the container.

The boy takes 1 cup of orange juice out, so there is x−1 cups left out of a total volume of x cups.  So the new concentration in the container is:

(x − 1) / x

Next, he takes another cup out, but this time, it isn't 100% orange juice any more.  So the number of cups of orange juice left in the container is x − 1 − (x − 1) / x.  The total volume is still x cups, so the new concentration is:

[x − 1 − (x − 1) / x] / x

Repeating this logic, after he replaces the third cup with water, the final concentration is:

{x − 1 − (x − 1) / x − [x − 1 − (x − 1) / x] / x} / x

This final concentration is equal to 1/2.

1/2 = {x − 1 − (x − 1) / x − [x − 1 − (x − 1) / x] / x} / x

1/2 x = x − 1 − (x − 1) / x − [x − 1 − (x − 1) / x] / x

1/2 x² = x (x − 1) − (x − 1) − [x − 1 − (x − 1) / x]

1/2 x² = x (x − 1) − (x − 1) − (x − 1) + (x − 1) / x

1/2 x² = x (x − 1) − 2 (x − 1) + (x − 1) / x

1/2 x³ = x² (x − 1) − 2x (x − 1) + (x − 1)

1/2 x³ = x³ − x² − 2x² + 2x + x − 1

0 = 1/2 x³ − 3x² + 3x − 1

0 = x³ − 6x² + 6x − 2

Using a calculator to solve this:

x = 4.847

There are originally 4.847 cups in the container.

Answers

Answer:the boat will travel about 20.62 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the boat travelled from dock A to dock B without passing and stopping at dock C along the way. The number of miles travelled would be the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle shown. To determine the number of miles travelled, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse^2 = opposite side^2 + adjacent side^2

Looking at the triangle,

Opposite side = 13 miles

Adjacent side = 16 miles

Hypotenuse^2 = 13^2 + 16^2 = 425

Hypotenuse = √425 = 20.62 miles

A rectangle has an area of 96cm2. The width is four less than the length. What is the perimeter?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangle.

Let W represent the width of the rectangle.

The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed

LW^2

The rectangle has an area of 96cm2. This means that

LW = 96 - - - - - - - - - - 1

The width is four less than the length. This means that

L = W + 4

Substituting L = W + 4 into equation 1, it becomes

W(W + 4)= 96

W^2 + 4W = 96

W^2 + 4W - 96 = 0

W^2 + 12W - 8W - 96 = 0

W(W + 12) - 8(W + 12) = 0

(W + 12)(W - 8) = 0

W = 8 or W = -12

Since the width cannot be negative, the W = 8cm

L = W + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12 cm

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

Perimeter = 2(8 + 12) =2×20

Perimeter of rectangle = 40 cm

.

Final answer:

Perimeter is 40cm.

Explanation:

To find the perimeter of a rectangle with an area of 96 cm2 where the width is four less than the length, we first need to set up equations for the area and the relationship between the sides.

Let the length be represented by L and the width by W.

We know:

Area (A) = Length (L) × Width (W) = 96 cm2Width (W) = Length (L) - 4 cm

We can substitute the second equation into the first to find the length:

A = L × (L - 4 cm) = 96 cm2

L^2 - 4L - 96 = 0

(L - 12)(L + 8) = 0

L = 12

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is given by 2 × Length + 2 × Width or P = 2L + 2W.

Substituting the values of L and W into this formula will yield the perimeter of the rectangle.

For example, if L = 12 cm (which is a possible solution to the above problem), then W = L - 4 cm = 8 cm.

Therefore, the perimeter would be:

P = 2L + 2W = 2(12 cm) + 2(8 cm) = 40 cm

You have 100 dollars, and there is a dollar bill behind each door. You roll a 100 sided die 100 times, and you take the dollar behind the door on the die roll if the bill has not been taken already (e.g. you roll 16, then you take the dollar behind door 16 if you haven’t already taken it). What is your expected payoff?

Answers

Answer:

63.21.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 100 dollars, and there is a dollar bill behind each door. You roll a 100 sided die 100 times, and you take the dollar behind the door on the die roll if the bill has not been taken already (e.g. you roll 16, then you take the dollar behind door 16 if you haven’t already taken it). What is your expected payoff?

X=Σ100i=1   1Ai

where Ai is the event that door i is opened at least once, and 1Ai is the indicator function for event Ai.

Thus the expected payoff is:

E[X]=Σ100  as i=1    Pr[Ai].

to calculate Pr[Ai].

Ai∁ is the probability of the event that after 100 rolls, door i is not chosen, which is:

Pr[Ai∁]=(99/100)^100

Thus:

Pr[Ai]=1−Pr[Ai∁]=1−(99/100)^100.

E[X]=Σ100i=1Pr[Ai]=100×(1−(99/100)^100).

Also based on the following approximation for large n's:

(1−1n)n≈1e

we have:

(99/100)^100=(1−1/100)^100≈1/e.

The expected pay off is

E[X]=100×(1−(99/100)^100)≈100×(1−1/e)≈63.21.

Final answer:

In the scenario where you roll a 100-sided die 100 times to collect a dollar behind each numbered door, the expected payoff is $100, since each number has an equal likelihood of being rolled once.

Explanation:

The question you're asking involves probability and expected value, a concept from mathematics specifically relevant in understanding outcomes in scenarios involving randomness and repetition, like the one described with 100-sided dice and dollars behind doors. When rolling a 100-sided die 100 times for dollars behind 100 doors, your expected payoff is relatively straightforward to calculate. Since each roll has an equal chance to land on any number between 1 and 100 and no number will be chosen more than once, the expected outcome is that you will roll each number once.

Thus, on average, you are expected to open each door exactly once, so the expected payoff would be neatly the sum of all the dollars behind every door. As there are 100 doors, each with a dollar behind it, your expected payoff is simply $100.

Hank has a board 1.75 meters long. He used 0.8 meter to build the walls of a birdhouse. He used 0.4 of what is left for the floor. He needs 0.6 meter for the roof. Dies he have enough wood for the roof? Explain

Answers

Answer:No, he doesn't have enough wood for the roof.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of Hank's board is 1.75 meters. He used 0.8 meter to build the walls of a birdhouse. This means that the length of the board left would be

1.75 - 0.8 = 0.95 meters

He used 0.4 of what is left for the floor. This means that the length of the board left would be

0.95 - 0.4 = 0.55 meters

He needs 0.6 meter for the roof. Since he has only 0.55 meters left, then, he doesn't have enough wood for the roof.

The number 2^1993 + 3^1993 is a multiple of 5. What is the units digit of the quotient (2^1993 + 3^1993)/5?

Answers

Final answer:

The units digit of the quotient (2^1993 + 3^1993)/5 is 9.

Explanation:

The units digit of the sum of two numbers is determined by the units digit of each number. To find the units digit of 2^1993, we can observe the pattern of its units digits: the units digit of 2 repeats every four powers. Therefore, 2^1993 has the same units digit as 2^1, which is 2. Similarly, the units digit of 3^1993 is the same as the units digit of 3^3, which is 7.

Now, we can calculate the units digit of the sum: 2 + 7 = 9. Since the sum is divisible by 5, and the units digit is 9, the quotient (2^1993 + 3^1993)/5 has a units digit of 9 as well.

Option A is not the correct answer because it is out of context

Option B is also out of context because what we are looking for is a connection between defaulters at state and federal level

Option C is also wrong because it would lead to the direct opposite of the projection by economists.

Option D is also wrong because once again it is out of context.

Option E is correct

If AB is the diameter of the circle with center X and C is a point on the circle such that AC = AX = 3, what is the perimeter of triangle ABC ?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a shape or plane figure is the distance round the shape. The diagram of the circle and the triangle ABC formed is shown in the attached photo.

To determine the length of AC, we would apply the Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as follows

Hypotenuse^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent ^2

AC = hypotenuse

Opposite = 3

Adjacent = 3

AC^2 = 3^2 + 3^2 = 9 + 9 = 18

AC = √18 = 4.24

BX = AX = 3(they are both radii)

BC = AC = 4.24

The perimeter of triangle ABC would be

3 + 3 + 4.24 + 4.24 = 14.48

Suppose the newspaper states that the probability of rain today is 65%.
What is the complement of the event "rain today"?
rain yesterday
rain tomorrow
no rain today
no rain tomorrow
What is the probability of the complement?

Answers

Final answer:

The complement of 'rain today' is 'no rain today'. Its probability is 1 - the probability of 'rain today', which calculates to 35%.

Explanation:

In probability theory, the complement of any event A represents 'not A'. In this context, the event is 'rain today', therefore the complement of the event would be 'no rain today'.

Probability of an event and its complement always add up to 1. Therefore, you can calculate the probability of the complement by subtracting the probability of the event from 1. So, the probability of the complement of the event 'rain today' is 1 - 0.65 which equals 0.35 or 35%.

give the equation of the circle whose center is (5 -3) and goes through (2 5)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form for the equation of a circle is

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

From the info given, we have the center, (h, k) as (5, -3) and the x and y coordinates of (2, 5).  We will use these to solve for r-squared, then plug back in what we need to write the equation.

[tex](2-5)^2+(5-(-3))^2=r^2[/tex] which simplifies to

[tex](-3)^2+(8)^2=r^2[/tex] and

[tex]9+64=r^2[/tex] so

[tex]r^2=73[/tex]

Filling in the equation:

[tex](x-5)^2+(y+3)^2=73[/tex]

Two percent of the jazz records sold in April were from a new label. About how many records were from the new label?

Answers

Final Answer:

Approximately, 2% of the jazz records sold in April were from the new label.To find this, multiply the percentage (2%) by the total jazz records sold, expressing the percentage as a decimal (0.02). The formula is[tex]\( N = 0.02 \times J \),[/tex] where [tex]\( N \)[/tex] is the number of records from the new label, and [tex]\( J \)[/tex]is the total number of jazz records sold.

Explanation:

In order to determine the number of jazz records sold from the new label in April, you need to multiply the percentage by the total number of jazz records sold. Let's denote the total number of jazz records as J. The formula for calculating the number of records from the new label (N) is given by:

[tex]\[ N = (2/100) \times J \][/tex]

This is based on the fact that 2% is equivalent to 0.02 when expressed as a decimal. Therefore, the number of records from the new label is obtained by multiplying 0.02 by the total number of jazz records (J). This calculation provides the direct answer to the question.

Understanding percentages is essential in various fields, and in this scenario, it helps determine the specific quantity of records from the new label in relation to the total jazz records sold. This mathematical approach allows for a precise estimation, providing insights into the market share or performance of the new label within the jazz genre for the specified period, in this case, the month of April.

In an obtuse isosceles triangle the angle measurements are, x∘, x∘, and (10x−2)=128∘. Find the measurement of one of the acute angles.

Answers

Answer:

26°

Step-by-step explanation:

An obtuse triangle is a triangle that has one obtuse angle. Obtuse angle is an angle that is greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two equal sides and angles.  

Therefore, an obtuse isosceles triangle is a triangle with an obtuse angle and two equal sides that have two equal acute angles (angle less than 90° ).

Given:

The three angles of the triangle are given to be x°, x°  and (10x−2) = 128°. The obtuse angle is 128°, the two x° are acute angles. We are not using equation 10x − 2 since the value of the obtuse angle has been given as 128°

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

∴  x° + x° + 128° = 180°

2x° = 180° - 128°

2x° = 52°

x° = 52° / 2

x° = 26°

The measurement of one of the acute angles is 26°

A student bought a juice pouch forn$2.50 and 3 bags of chips. The total cost was $5.05.Write and solve an equation to determine the cost of a bag of chips,c

Answers

Answer:

The cost of a bag of chips is [tex]c=\$0.85[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

c ----> the cost of a bag of chips

we know that

The cost of a juice pouch ($2.50) plus the cost of 3 bags of chips must be equal to $5.05

The cost of 3 bags of chips is equal to multiply 3 by its cost c

so

The linear equation that represent this situation is

[tex]2.50+3c=5.05[/tex]

solve for c

Subtract 2.50 both sides

[tex]3c=5.05-2.50[/tex]

[tex]3c=2.55[/tex]

Divide by 3 both sides

Answers

Answer:

8. When starting your credit history, a low-credit-limit, high-interest-rate credit card should be paid in full, on time, every time.

9. APY means annual percentage yield.

Explanation:

8. A person's credit history tells about the ability of a person to pay and repay his debts. This is very important especially when you want to avail of a credit card from a company because it reflects on how responsible you are when it comes to repaying your debts. However, when you are just starting your credit history, it is important to give a good impression, so you'd have an easier approval in the future.

Usually, for starters with low salary, a low-credit-limit with a high-interest-rate credit card is common. It is very important to pay your debts in full, on time and every time in order to avoid incurring a balance that you will be carrying from one month to the other. If you do this, you will be ending up paying lots of interest charge.

Paying in full, on time and every time will also give you the chance to have an increased credit limit in the future.

9. APY is also known as "Annual Percentage Yield." This is the actual amount (rate of return) that a person could earn while his money is being deposited in the bank in one year. Other than the deposited money, investment that earns a rate of return could also refer to bonds and stock share. APY considers the compounding interest in its computation. This means that the higher your balance, the higher the APY. The value of the asset also increases.

Final answer:

The volume of the given solid oblique pyramid with a square base of edge length x cm and height (x+2) cm can be calculated using the formula for the volume of a pyramid, 1/3 * (base area) * (height). The volume can thus be represented by the expression 1/3 * x^3 + 2/3 * x^2 cm^3.

Explanation:

The question refers to a solid oblique pyramid with a square base, where the edge length of the base is x, and the height is (x+2) cm. To calculate the volume of the pyramid, you can use the formula for the volume of a pyramid: 1/3 * (base area) * (height). For the given pyramid, the base is a square with side length x, so the area of the base is x*x or x^2. Because the height of the pyramid is (x + 2), we substitute into the formula to get: 1/3 * x^2 * (x + 2). Multiplying it out, the expression representing the volume of the pyramid is: 1/3 * x^3 + 2/3 * x^2 cm^3.

She wants to know what kind of face can be identified most easily, and whether this varies by the race of the person in the picture. She designs a 2 x 3 within-group design where she has participants in her study look at faces from African-American and Caucasian people who are "Cooperators", "Competitors", or "Individualists." The participants identify the personality of the person in each picture and Lisa keeps track of the number of pictures accurately identified for each picture type. How many cells was each participant in?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question it is stated that Lisa has designed a "within-group" or "within-subject" experiment using three categories with 2 subject in each category.

Within-group / within-subject experiments mean that every participant is tested for each condition of the experiment, so everyone goes through the same process.

Considering these informations, we can calculate that each participant was in 6 cells because there are 3 categories and 2 subjects for each of the categories.
