If the height of Mount Everest is about 8.8×10^3 meters, and the height of the Empire State Building is about 3.8×10^2 meters, which of these statements is true?
A.There is no way to compare these heights
B.Mount Everest is about 40 times as tall as the Empire State Building
C.Mount Everest is about 23 times as tall as the Empire State Building
D.The Empire State Building is about 23 times as tall as Mount Everest

Answers

Answer 1
The answer is C. You just divide 8.8 by 3.8 and 10^3 by 10^2 and put those together. (This is how you generally divide with scientific notation)
Answer 2
Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of Mount Everest = 8.8 x 10³ m = 8800 m

Height of the Empire State Building = 3.8 x 10² m = 380 m

[tex]\frac{\texttt{Height of Mount Everest}}{\texttt{Height of the Empire State Building}}=\frac{8800}{380}\\\\\frac{\texttt{Height of Mount Everest}}{\texttt{Height of the Empire State Building}}=23.16[/tex]

Height of Mount Everest = 23 x Height of the Empire State Building.

So, Mount Everest is about 23 times as tall as the Empire State Building

Option C is the correct answer.

A bridge in the shape of an arch connects two cities separated by a river. The two ends of the bridge are located at (–7, –13) and (7, –13), and the center of the arch on the bridge is located at (0, 0). Find the equation of the arch of the bridge.

Answers

The equation of the arch is y = (-13/49)x².

The equation of an arch can be described by a parabola when one side of the arch mirrors the other side. This is the case for the bridge problem given.

The center of the bridge is at the origin (0, 0), and it is the vertex of the parabola. Since the arch is symmetrical and the x-coordinate of the vertex is 0, the parabola is a vertical one. Thus, the equation will be in the form y = ax². To find the value of a, we will use the fact that one end of the bridge is at (7, -13).

Since (7, -13) is a point on the parabola, by plugging these values into the equation y = ax², we get:

-13 = a(7²)

-13 = 49a

a = -13/49

Thus, the equation  is y = (-13/49)x².

Mike and adam left a bus terminal at the same time and traveled in opposite directions. mike’s bus was in heavy traffic and had to travel 20 mi/h slower than adam’s bus. after 3 hours, their buses were 270 miles apart. how fast was each bus going?

Answers

adam's bus speed = a
mike's bus speed = m
total distace = t

m = a - 20

after 3 hour:

3 * (m + a) = t
3 * (m + a) = 270
3m + 3a = 270
[ 3 * (a - 20) ] + [ 3 * a ] = 270
[ 3a - 60 ] + 3a = 270
3a - 60 + 3a = 270
3a + 3a = 270 + 60
6a = 330

their speed:
a = 55
m = 55 - 20 = 35

There is a traffic light at the intersection of walnut street and Lawrence avenue. The traffic light in walnut street follows a cycle. It is green for 50 seconds, yellow for 10 seconds, and red for 30 seconds, as you travel along walnut and approach the intersection, what is the probability that the first color you see is red?

Answers

P(R)=30/(30+10+50)

P(R)=30/90

P(R)=1/3

Answer: The probability that the first color we see is red is 0.34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Time taken by green color on the traffic light = 50 seconds

Time taken by yellow color on the traffic light = 10 seconds

Time taken by red color on the traffic light = 30 seconds

Total number of seconds = 50+10+30=90

So, Probability that the first color we see is red is given by

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Time alloted for red color}}{\text{Total number of seconds}}\\\\=\dfrac{30}{90}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\=0.3333...\\\\\approx 0.34[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the first color we see is red is 0.34.

Solve the inequality. 8x-5>_27. A.x>_4. B.x>_11/4. C.x<_4. D.x<_11/4

Answers

8x - 5 ≥ 27
8x ≥ 32 <-- Add 5 to both sides
x ≥ 4 <-- Divide both sides by 8

So, to be in solution set, x has to be greater or equal to 4.

In interval notation: [4, ∞)

In a set builder notation: {x | x ∈ R, x ≥ 4}

The solution for the inequality  8x - 5 ≥ 27 can be written as x [4, ∞) or x ≥ 4, so option A is correct.

What is inequality?

An inequality is a relation that compares two numbers or other mathematical expressions in an unequal way. It is most frequently used to compare the sizes of two numbers on the number line.

Given:

8x - 5 ≥ 27

Solve the above inequality as shown below,

Add 5 to both sides of an inequality,

8x - 5 + 5 ≥ 27 + 5

8x ≥ 32

Divide both sides by 8,

8x / 8  ≥ 32 / 8

x ≥ 4

x [4, ∞)

Thus, x can be any real number greater than 4 or equal to four.

[tex]\frac{c}{12+c}=\frac{10}{25}[/tex]

[tex]25c=120+10c[/tex]

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal.

Given that, there are 110 students in total in all the class.

According to question,

a+b+c = 110

After the room changes, we have

a/2 + c/3 = a

4b/5 + a/2 = b

2c/3 + b/5 = c

or,

a/2 = c/3

a/2 = b/5

b/5 = c/3 = a/2

so, substituting in,

a + 5a/2 + 3a/2 = 110

2a + 5a + 3a = 220

a = 22

b = 55

c = 35

Hence, there are 20, 50 and 30 in each room respectively.

A triangle has coordinates A (1, 5), B (-2, 1) and C (0, -4). What are the new coordinates if the triangle is dilated with a scale factor of 1/5?

Answers

IF you are dilating about the origin, which you didn't exactly state, the new coordinates are A' (1/5, 1), B' (2/5, 1/5), C' (0, 4/5).  Dilation is all about distance, so you have to move the new coordinates to whatever the scale factor is times the x and y distance.  For example, A is at (1, 5), so 1/5 of 1 is 1/5, and 1/5 of 5 is 1, hence your new coordinate for A.  It is a fifth of the distance from the origin as its preimage is.

To add, error checking uses the extra 8 bits. ECC memory is more reliable than non-ECC memory but it costs more than a non-ECC memory. Comprising the DIMMS are a series of dynamic random-access memory integrated circuits. Mounted on a printed circuit board, these modules are designed for use in personal computers, workstations and servers.

Find the fifth roots of 243(cos 240° + i sin 240°)

Answers

The best way to find a root is to get the root of the coefficient, then divide the angle by what root you want for the first one, then add 360/root to get each additional angle until you have all the roots. So for the fifth root, get the fifth root of 243, then divide 240 by 5 for your first angle. You then write the root in the same form as the original, just with your new numbers. Now take 360/5 to find that you will add 72 to the angle to get your next angle. Keep adding 72 to get another angle until you have five roots in all.

Suppose that 66% of people own dogs. if you pick two people at random, what is the probability that they both own a dog?

Answers

Final answer:

The probability of two people owning a dog when 66% of people own dogs is found by squaring the probability (0.66), giving us a result of 0.4356 or 43.56%.

Explanation:

The question asks to calculate the probability that both people picked at random own a dog when it is known that 66% of people own dogs. To find this probability, we can simply multiply the probability of the first person owning a dog by the probability of the second person owning a dog, assuming that these events are independent.

The probability that one person owns a dog is given as 66%, which is 0.66 in decimal form. Thus, the probability that both people own a dog is 0.66 × 0.66 (or 0.66 squared). Calculation yields:

0.66 × 0.66 = 0.4356

Therefore, the probability that both people own a dog is 0.4356, or 43.56%.
