A 25-foot ladder rests against a building. The base of the ladder is 15 feet away from the base
of the building. At what height does the ladder rest on the building?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: the top of the ladder is 20ft below the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder makes an angle, θ with the ground thus forming a right angle triangle with the wall of the house.

The length of the ladder represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.

The ground distance between the base of the house and the base of the ladder represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

Therefore, to determine the height at which the ladder rest on the building, x, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

25² = x² + 15²

625 = x² + 225

x² = 625 - 225 = 400

x = √400 = 20 ft

Answers

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

[tex]R_n = R_{n+1} +3[/tex] is given

First term is 15

This is an arithmetic series with a =15 and d =3

If n is the number of terms, then we have

Sum of n terms = 36 xn = 36n

But as per arithmetic progression rule

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2} [2a+(n-1)d]\\= \frac{n}{2} [30+(n-1)3]=36n[/tex]

[tex]72 = 30+3n-3\\n-=15[/tex]

When there are n terms we have middle term is the 8th term

Hence median is 8th term

Given the pay rate and hours worked, determine the gross earnings. Make sure to include decimals and appropriate zeros. rate 6.50 hours 40

Answers

The gross earnings, we obtain solving (6.50*40) the result is $260

Final answer:

To determine the gross earnings for 40 hours worked at a pay rate of $6.50 per hour, multiply the pay rate by hours. The gross earnings would be $260.00.

Explanation:

To calculate the gross earnings given the pay rate and hours worked, we use a simple multiplication. However, there is an additional consideration mentioned in Exercise 3.1, which states that the employee should receive 1.5 times the hourly rate for hours worked above 40 hours. Therefore, the calculation involves two steps if the number of hours exceeds 40.

Calculation:

If hours ≤ 40, the formula is:
Gross Earnings = Pay Rate × Hours WorkedIf hours > 40, the formula is:
Gross Earnings = Pay Rate × 40 + (Pay Rate × 1.5 × (Hours Worked - 40))

In this particular case, the student only worked 40 hours at a pay rate of $6.50 per hour. Using the first formula, the gross earnings would be:
Gross Earnings = $6.50/hour × 40 hours = $260.00

Find four numbers that form a geometric progression such that the third term is greater than the first by 12 and the fourth is greater than the second by 36.

Answers

Answer:

5 , 4.5, 13.5 and 40.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the numbers are in geometric progression, their form is essentially:

a, ar, ar^2 and ar^3

Where a and r are first term and common ratio respectively.

From the information given in the catalog:

Third term is greater than the first by 12 while fourth is greater than second by 36.

Let’s now translate this to mathematics.

ar^2 - a = 12

ar^3 - ar = 36

From 1, a(r^2 - 1) = 12 and 2:

ar(r^2 - 1) = 36

From 2 again r[a(r^2 -1] = 36

The expression inside square bracket looks exactly like equation 1 and equals 12.

Hence, 12r = 36 and r = 3

Substituting this in equation 1,

a( 9 - 1) = 12

8a = 12

a = 12/8 = 1.5

Thus, the numbers are 1.5, (1.5 * 3) , (1.5 * 9), (1.5 * 27) = 1.5 , 4.5, 13.5 and 40.5

Final Answer:

The four numbers forming the geometric progression are 1.5, 4.5, 13.5, and 40.5.

Explanation:

Let's start by defining what a geometric progression (GP) is. A geometric progression is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.
Let's denote the four numbers in the GP as a, ar, ar², and ar³, where:
- a is the first term,
- r is the common ratio.
We've been given two conditions:
1. The third term is greater than the first by 12, which gives us the equation:
  ar² = a + 12
2. The fourth term is greater than the second by 36, which leads us to:
  ar³ = ar + 36
We need to solve this system of equations to find the values of a and r.
Starting with the first equation:
ar² = a + 12
We can subtract 'a' from each side to get:
ar - a = 12
Factor out 'a' from the left side:
a(r² - 1) = 12
Now notice that r² - 1 is a difference of squares and can be factored to (r + 1)(r - 1):
a(r + 1)(r - 1) = 12
This equation tells us that the product of 'a' and (r + 1)(r - 1) is 12. For now, let's keep this equation aside and look at the second condition.
Proceeding with the second equation:
ar = ar + 36
Subtract 'ar' from each side:
ar³ - ar = 36
Factor out 'ar':
ar(r² - 1) = 36
Again, we recognize a difference of squares in the parentheses, so we factor it:
ar(r + 1)(r - 1) = 36
This equation relates 'ar', and (r + 1)(r - 1), and tells us the product is 36.
Now, because we have a similar term in both equations, (r + 1)(r - 1), we can set the products equal to each other to find a relationship between 'a' and 'ar':
From the first equation, we have a(r + 1)(r - 1) = 12,
From the second equation, we have ar(r + 1)(r - 1) = 36.
Dividing the second equation by the first one gives us:
ar(r + 1)(r - 1) / a(r + 1)(r - 1) = 36 / 12
ar / a = 36 / 12
r = 3
Now that we have the value of 'r', let's substitute it back into either of the original equations to find 'a'. Let's use the first equation:
a(r² - 1) = 12
a(3² - 1) = 12
a(9 - 1) = 12
a(8) = 12
a = 12 / 8
a = 3 / 2
a = 1.5
Now we have both 'a' and 'r', which allows us to determine the four numbers in the GP:
The first number, a, is 1.5.
The second number, ar, is 1.5 * 3 = 4.5.
The third number, ar², is 4.5 * 3 = 13.5.
The fourth number, ar², is 13.5 * 3 = 40.5.
So, the four numbers forming the geometric progression are 1.5, 4.5, 13.5, and 40.5.

The ages of 3 brothers are represented by consecutive integers. If the oldest brothers age is decreased by twice the youngest brother age the result is -19. How old is the youngest brother

Answers

Answer:

The youngest brother's age is 21 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ages of 3 brothers are consecutive integers.

If the oldest brothers age is decreased by twice the youngest brother age the result is -19

To find the age of the youngest brother.

Solution:

Let the age of youngest broth be = [tex]x[/tex]  years

The ages are consecutive integers.

So, age of the next older brother will be = [tex](x+1)[/tex] years

The age of the oldest brother will be = [tex](x+2)[/tex] years

The oldest brothers age is decreased by twice the youngest brother age.

The above statement can be represented as:

⇒ [tex](x+2)-2x[/tex]

Simplifying.

⇒ [tex]x-2x+2[/tex]

⇒[tex]-x+2[/tex]

The result for the above expression = -19.

So, we have:

[tex]-x+2=-19[/tex]

Subtracting both sides by 2.

[tex]-x+2-2=-19-2[/tex]

[tex]-x=-21[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by -1.

∴ [tex]x=21[/tex]

Thus, the youngest brother's age is 21 years

The equation is only true if either m or n (or both) is 0.

Final answer:

The square root of the sum of two numbers is not equal to the sum of the square roots of those numbers.

Explanation:

No, √m+n is not equal to √m + √n for all values of m and n. This is because of the nature of square roots and how they interact with addition. Taking the square root of a sum is not the same as the sum of the square roots. For example, for m = 4 and n = 9, √4 + √9 = 2 + 3 = 5, but √(4 + 9) = √13, which is not equal to 5.

A. 6.
B. 8.
C. 16.
D. 24.
E. 32.

Answers

Answer:

Option C. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of differents colors = 4

Number of differents sizes = 2

Case 1: 3 notepads of the same size and the same color:

If we have a package with the same size and the same color, the number of possible packages is:

N° packages = 4(colors)*2(sizes) = 8

Case 2: 3 notepads of the same size and different colors:      

In this case, to calculate the number of possible permutations of packages without repetitions we need to use the following equation:    

[tex] C_{n}^[p} = \frac{n!}{p!(n-p)!} [/tex]

where p: is the number of colors for each package = 3, and n: is the total number of colors = 4.

[tex] C_{4}^[3} = \frac{4!}{3!(4-3)!} = \frac{4*3*2*1}{3*2*1} = 4 [/tex]

This number calculated is for one size, if the have two different sizes the number of possible packages is:

N° packages = 4(colors)*2(sizes) = 8    

Therefore, the total number of different possible packages is:

N° packages = case 1 + case 2 = 8 + 8 = 16

So, the correct answer is option C = 16.

Answer:

The given statement describe inferential statistics.    

Step-by-step explanation:

Descriptive Statistic:

It helps us to summarize a given data set.It could describe the entire population or a sample from the population.There are two types of descriptive measures: measures of central tendency and measures of variabilityCentral Tendency: Mean, mode, MedianMeasure of Viability: Standard Deviation, Variance, Range, Interquartile range

Inferential Statistic:

It s the process of estimating population parameter with the help of a sample from the population.A random sample from the population is used to describe the population with the help of sample statistic.

Given Scenario:

"Based on a sample of 170 truck drivers, there is evidence to indicate that, on average, independent truck drivers earn more than company-hired truck drivers."

Thus, this is an example of a inferential statistics as a sample was used to estimate the population.

Here,

Sample:

Sample of 170 truck drivers

Population:

All truck drivers.

With the help of a sample, we approximated the population, thus, this statement describe inferential statistics.

The statement is an example of inferential statistics, as it makes a general conclusion about a population (all truck drivers) based on a sample.

The statement "Based on a sample of 170 truck drivers, there is evidence to indicate that, on average, independent truck drivers earn more than company-hired truck drivers" describes the use of inferential statistics. This type of statistics is used when analysts want to make predictions or inferences about a population based on the data collected from a sample. In contrast, descriptive statistics are used simply to describe what the data show, such as calculating averages, medians, ranges, and so on. Since the statement indicates a broader conclusion about the earnings of independent versus company-hired truck drivers in general, based on a sample, it utilizes inferential statistics.

Answers

Final answer:

To construct a Pareto chart for the Wagenlucht Ice Cream Company, rank the flavors by preference, calculate relative frequencies, then draw a bar chart accordingly.

Explanation:

The first step in constructing a Pareto chart is to order your categories (in this case, ice cream flavors) from largest to smallest frequency. Therefore, we will rank them as follows: Choco-Nuts (12), Strawberry Cream (4), and Orange Mint (4).

Then, calculate the relative frequencies - the number of people who preferred a particular flavor divided by the total number of people sampled. Choco-Nuts: 12/20 = 0.6, Strawberry Cream: 4/20 = 0.2, Orange Mint: 4/20 = 0.2.

Start a vertical bar chart with the flavors on the horizontal axis. Using the relative frequencies, draw proportional vertical bars for each: Choco-Nuts would be the tallest, then Strawberry Cream and Orange Mint, which are both the same size. This is your Pareto chart.

The circle graph shows Tommy Blox spent the money he earned last summer. If he spent $80 on entertainment, how much did Tommy earn altogether?

Answers

Answer:19+25+10+14+80 gives you 148

Step-by-step explanation:

Tommy earned approximately $68 altogether.

Given:

- Clothes: 19%

- Food: 25%

- Savings: 10%

- Other: 14%

To find out how much Tommy earned altogether, we need to detemine what percentage of his earnings $80 on entertainment represents.

First, we sum up these percentages to find out what portion of his earnings $80 represents:

Total percentage spent = Clothes + Food + Savings + Other

Total percentage spent = 19% + 25% + 10% + 14%

Total percentage spent = 68%

Now, we need to find out how much $80 represents as a percentage of his total earnings:

Percentage of earnings spent on entertainment = (Amount spent on entertainment / Total percentage spent) * 100%

Percentage of earnings spent on entertainment = (80 / 68) * 100%

Percentage of earnings spent on entertainment ≈ 117.65%

Now, to find out how much Tommy earned altogether, we need to determine the total amount represented by 100%, which is his total earnings. Since $80 represents approximately 117.65% of his earnings:

Total earnings = (Amount spent on entertainment / Percentage of earnings spent on entertainment) * 100%

Total earnings = (80 / 117.65%) * 100%

Total earnings ≈ $68

Therefore, Tommy earned approximately $68 altogether.

The number of ducks and pigs in a field totals 34. The total number of legs among them is 86. Assuming each duck has exactly two legs and each pig has exactly four legs, determine how many ducks and how many pigs are in the field. (For each answer, enter an exact number.)

Answers

Answer: the number of ducks in the field is 25

the number of pigs in the field is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of ducks in the field.

Let y represent the number of pigs in the field.

A duck has one head and a pig also has one head.

The number of ducks and pigs in a field totals 34. This means that

x + y = 34

The total number of legs among them is 86. Assuming each duck has exactly two legs and each pig has exactly four legs, it means that

2x + 4y = 86 - - - - - - - - - - -- - 1

Substituting x = 34 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2(34 - y) + 4y = 86

68 - 2y + 4y = 86

- 2y + 4y = 86 - 68

2y = 18

y = 18/2 = 9

Substituting y = 9 into x = 34 - y, it becomes

x = 34 - 9 = 25

Final answer:

To find the number of ducks and pigs in the field, we can set up a system of equations and solve them. Using the given information and the equations x + y = 34 and 2x + 4y = 86, we can find that there are 25 ducks and 9 pigs in the field.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use a system of equations. Let x represent the number of ducks and y represent the number of pigs. From the given information, we can set up two equations:

x + y = 34  (equation 1)

2x + 4y = 86  (equation 2)

Now, we can solve the system of equations. We can start by multiplying equation 1 by 2 to eliminate the x variable:

2(x + y) = 2(34)

2x + 2y = 68

Next, we can subtract equation 2 from this new equation:

(2x + 2y) - (2x + 4y) = 68 - 86

-2y = -18

Dividing both sides of the equation by -2 gives us:

y = 9

Substituting this value back into equation 1:

x + 9 = 34

x = 34 - 9

x = 25

Therefore, there are 25 ducks and 9 pigs in the field.

A body of constant mass m is projected vertically upward with an initial velocity v0 in a medium offering a resistance k|v|, where k is a constant. Neglect changes in the gravitational force. a. Find the maximum height xm attained by the body and the time tm at which this maximum height is reached.

Answers

Answer:

tm = tₐ = -m/k ㏑{ [mg/k] / [v₀ + mg/k] }

Xm = Xₐ = (v₀m)/k - ({m²g}/k²) ㏑(1+{kv₀/mg})

Step-by-step explanation:

Note, I substituted maximum time tm = tₐ and maximum height Xm = Xₐ

We will use linear ordinary differential equation (ODE) to solve this question.

Remember that Force F = ma in 2nd Newton law, where m is mass and a is acceleration

Acceleration a is also the rate of change in velocity per time. i.e a=dv/dt

Therefore F = m(dv/dt) = m (v₂-v₁)/t

There are two forces involved in this situation which are F₁ and F₂, where F₁ is the gravitational force and F₂ is the air resistance force.

Then, F = F₁ + F₂ = m (v₂-v₁)/t

F₁ + F₂ = -mg-kv = m (v₂-v₁)/t

Divide through by m to get

-g-(kv/m) = (v₂-v₁)/t

Let (v₂-v₁)/t be v¹

Therefore, -g-(kv/m) = v¹

-g = v¹ + (k/m)v --------------------------------------------------(i)

Equation (i) is a inhomogenous linear ordinary differential equation (ODE)

Therefore let A(t) = k/m and B(t) = -g --------------------------------(ia)

b = ∫Adt

Since A = k/m, then

b = ∫(k/m)dt

The integral will give us b = kt/m------------------------------------(ii)

The integrating factor will be eᵇ = e ⁽k/m

The general solution of velocity at any given time is

v(t) = e⁻⁽b⁾ [ c + ∫Beᵇdt ] --------------------------------------(iiI)

substitute the values of b, eᵇ, and B into equation (iii)

v(t) = e⁻⁽kt/m⁾ [ c + ∫₋g e⁽kt/m⁾dt ]

Integrating and cancelling the bracket, we get

v(t) = ce⁻⁽kt/m⁾ + (e⁻⁽kt/m⁾ ∫₋g e⁽kt/m⁾dt ])

v(t) = ce⁻⁽kt/m⁾ - e⁻⁽kt/m⁾ ∫g e⁽kt/m⁾dt ]

v(t) = ce⁻⁽kt/m⁾ -mg/k -------------------------------------------------------(iv)

Note that at initial velocity v₀, time t is 0, therefore v₀ = v(t)

v₀ = V(t) = V(0)

substitute t = 0 in equation (iv)

v₀ = ce⁻⁽k0/m⁾ -mg/k

v₀ = c(1) -mg/k = c - mg/k

Therefore c = v₀ + mg/k  ------------------------------------------------(v)

Substitute equation (v) into (iv)

v(t) = [v₀ + mg/k] e⁻⁽kt/m⁾ - mg/k ----------------------------------------(vi)

Now at maximum height Xₐ, the time will be tₐ

Now change V(t) as V(tₐ) and equate it to 0 to get the maximum time tₐ.

v(t) = v(tₐ) = [v₀ + mg/k] e⁻⁽ktₐ/m⁾ - mg/k = 0

to find tₐ from the equation,

[v₀ + mg/k] e⁻⁽ktₐ/m⁾ = mg/k

e⁻⁽ktₐ/m⁾ = {mg/k] / [v₀ + mg/k]

-ktₐ/m = ㏑{ [mg/k] / [v₀ + mg/k] }

-ktₐ = m ㏑{ [mg/k] / [v₀ + mg/k] }

tₐ = -m/k ㏑{ [mg/k] / [v₀ + mg/k] }

Therefore tₐ = -m/k ㏑{ [mg/k] / [v₀ + mg/k] } ----------------------------------(A)

we can also write equ (A) as tₐ = m/k ㏑{ [mg/k] [v₀ + mg/k] } due to the negative sign coming together with the In sign.

Now to find the maximum height Xₐ, the equation must be written in terms of v and x.

This means dv/dt = v(dv/dx) ---------------------------------------(vii)

Remember equation (i) above  -g = v¹ + (k/m)v

Given that dv/dt = v¹

and -g-(kv/m) = v¹

Therefore subt v¹ into equ (vii) above to get

-g-(kv/m) = v(dv/dx)

Divide through by v to get

[-g-(kv/m)] / v = dv / dx -----------------------------------------------(viii)

Expand the LEFT hand size more to get

[-g-(kv/m)] / v = - (k/m) / [1 - { mg/k) / (mg/k + v) } ] ---------------------(ix)

Now substitute equ (ix) in equ (viii)

- (k/m) / [1 - { mg/k) / (mg/k + v) } ] = dv / dx

Cross-multify the equation to get

- (k/m) dx = [1 - { mg/k) / (mg/k + v) } ] dv --------------------------------(x)

Remember that at maximum height, t = 0, then x = 0

t = tₐ and X = Xₐ

Then integrate the left and right side of equation (x) from v₀ to 0 and 0 to Xₐ respectively to get:

-v₀ + (mg/k) ㏑v₀ = - {k/m} Xₐ

Divide through by - {k/m} to get

Xₐ = -v₀ + (mg/k) ㏑v₀ / (- {k/m})

Xₐ = {m/k}v₀ - {m²g}/k² ㏑(1+{kv₀/mg})

Therefore Xₐ = (v₀m)/k - ({m²g}/k²) ㏑(1+{kv₀/mg}) ---------------------------(B)

Final answer:

The question is about an object projected upwards under gravity and a certain resistance. The equations of motion will be non-linear due to the nature of the resistance. Solving these equations metaphorically or numerically will yield the maximum height and time taken to reach that height.

Explanation:

The subject matter here is mechanics which falls under Physics. Given that there is a body of constant mass m projected upwards with an initial velocity v0 and the medium being passed through provides a resistance of k|v|, the equations of motion under this resistance will be non-linear.

The question here pertains to the calculations related to an object moving upwards under a given resistance and gravity. To obtain the maximum height achieved by the body xm and the time taken to reach that tm, we employ the trick of non-dimensionalisation. First, we observe the units of all physical quantities and using this, we can introduce reduced physical quantities which are dimensionless.

Unfortunately, these non-linear equations don’t have a neat analytical solution, and methods of approximation or numerical techniques might be necessary to solve them for particular initial conditions.

Answer:

Emil's back pack weigh now [tex]5\frac{1}{8}\ pounds[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Weight of backpack = [tex]6\frac{3}{8}\ pounds[/tex]

[tex]6\frac{3}{8}\ pounds[/tex] can be Rewritten as [tex]\frac{51}{8}\ pounds[/tex]

Weight of backpack =  [tex]\frac{51}{8}\ pounds[/tex]

Weight of Book 1 = [tex]\frac{3}{4}\ pound[/tex]

Weight of Book 2 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\ pound[/tex]

We need to find weight of back pack after removing books.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

weight of back pack after removing books can be calculated by Subtracting Weight of Book 1 and Weight of Book 2 from Total Weight of backpack.

framing in equation form we get;

weight of back pack after removing books = [tex]\frac{51}{8}-\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Now to solve the equation we will first make the denominator common using LCM.

weight of back pack after removing books =[tex]\frac{51\times1}{8\times1}-\frac{3\times2}{4\times2}-\frac{1\times4}{2\times4}=\frac{51}{8}-\frac{6}{8}-\frac{4}{8}[/tex]

A store is mixing up two types of nuts, peanuts and cashews into a 50 lb barrel. peanuts sell for $4 a pound and cashews sell for $7 a pound. If the store wants to sell the mix for $5.75 a pound, how many pounds of each nut should be put into the mix?

Answers

Answer:

Cashew 12.5lb

Peanuts 37.5lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pounds of cashewnuts and peanuts be c and p respectively.

Firstly, the total mass of the nuts is 50.

This means:

c + p = 50

Now let’s work with the money

4p + 7c = 4.75(50)

From the first equation, let c = 50 - p

Substitute this into the second equation.

4p + 7(50 - p) = 237.5

4p + 350 - 7p = 237.5

3p = 112.5

P = 112.5/3 = 37.5lb

For Cashew c = 50 - p = 50 - 37.5 = 12.5lb
