A 25 foot ladder is leaning against a tree. If the base of the ladder is 6 feet
away from the base of the tree, how high, to the nearest tenth, does the
ladder reach up the tree?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  24.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If h is the height of the ladder up the tree, the geometry can be modeled as a right triangle with legs h and 6, and hypotenuse 25. The Pythagorean theorem gives you the relation ...

  h² +6² = 25²

  h² = 625 -36 = 589

  h = √589 ≈ 24.3

The ladder reaches about 24.3 feet up the tree.

Use the Squeeze Theorem ​

Answers

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to use the Squeeze Theorem to show that:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0}\left(x^2\sin\left(\frac{2}{x}\right)\right)=0[/tex]

Recall that according to the Squeeze Theorem, if:

[tex]\displaystyle g(x)\leq f(x) \leq h(x)[/tex]

And:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to c}g(x) =\lim_{x\to c}h(x) = L[/tex]

Then:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to c}f(x)=L[/tex]

Recall that the value of sine is always ≥ -1 and ≤ 1. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle -1 \leq \sin\left(\frac{2}{x}\right) \leq 1[/tex]

We can multiply both sides by x². Since this value is always positive, we do not need to change the signs. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle -x^2\leq x^2\sin\left(\frac{2}{x}\right)\leq x^2[/tex]

Let g = -x², h = x², and f = x²sin(2 / x). We can see that:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0}g(x) = \lim_{ x \to 0}h(x) = 0[/tex]

And since g(x) ≤ f(x) ≤ h(x), we can conclude using the Squeeze Theorem that:

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x \to 0}f(x) = \lim_{x \to 0}x^2\sin\left(\frac{2}{x}\right)=0[/tex]

0 0

Answers

Answer:

x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

(2/3)(x/2 + 12) = (1/2)(x/3 + 14) - 3

2x/6 + 24/3 = x/6 + 14/2 - 3

2x/6 + 8 = x/6 + 7 - 3 = x/6 + 4

x/6 + 8 = 4

x/6 = -4

x = -24

Calculate a critical z-score for a left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed test.

a. The critical z-score for a left-tailed test at a 12% significance level is -0.45.
b. The critical z-score for a right-tailed test at a 9% significance level is 1.34.
c. The critical z-score for a two-sided test at a 4% significance level is 1.75.
d. The critical z-score for a two-sided test at a 20% significance level is 0.85.

Answers

Answer:

a. Z = -1.175.

b. Z = 1.34.

c. |Z| = 2.054.

d. |Z| = 1.28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

a. The critical z-score for a left-tailed test at a 12% significance level

Left-tailed test: The region of interest is the 12th percentile or below.

Thus, the critical z-score is Z with a p-value of 0.12, so Z = -1.175.

b. The critical z-score for a right-tailed test at a 9% significance level

Right-tailed test: The region of interest is the 100 - 9 = 91th percentile and above.

Thus, the critical z-score is Z with a p-value of 0.91, so Z = 1.34.

c. The critical z-score for a two-sided test at a 4% significance level is 1.75.

Two-tailed test: The region of interest is between the 4/2 = 2th percentile and the 100 - (4/2) = 98th percentile.

Thus, the critical z-score is |Z| with a p-value of 0.02 or 0.98, so |Z| = 2.054.

d. The critical z-score for a two-sided test at a 20% significance level is 0.85.

Region of interest is between the 20/2 = 10th percentile and the 100 - (20/2) = 90th percentile.

Thus, the critical z-score is |Z| with a p-value of 0.1 or 0.9, so |Z| = 1.28.

PT=3x+3 and TQ=6x-6
Use the figure to the right to find the value of PT. T is the midpoint of PQ

Answers

Answer:

PT = 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

PT=3x+3 and TQ=6x-6

T is the midpoint of PQ.

If T is mindpoint of PQ, it means,

PT = TQ

Substitute all the values,

3x+3 = 6x-6

Taking like terms together,

3x-6x = -6-3

-3x = -9

x = 3

So,

PT = 3x+3

= 3(3) + 3

= 9+3

= 12

So, the value of PT is equal to 12 units.

GraphB

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the best line of fit, we need the line which minimizes the sum of the squared distances, Therefore, from visual inspection, we can conclude that the best line of fit will be one in which the distance between each individual distance and the line of best fit is minimized, for the first graph, only the upper points are close to the regression line leaving the lower values further away, however, the secubd graph gives a more uniform distance between all the data values and the regression line. Hence, it does a better job at capturing the trend in the data.

Aysha has 40 cubes in a bag.
18 red cubes.
13 blue cubes.
9 yellow cubes.
Aysha adds some more red cubes into the bag.
Aysha is now going to take at random a cube from the bag
The probability now that she will take a red cube is 0.5.
Work out the probability that she will take a yellow cube.

Answers

Given:

Total number of cubes = 40

Red cubes = 18

Blue cubes = 13

Yellow cubes = 9

Aysha adds some more red cubes into the bag.

The probability now that she will take a red cube is 0.5.

To find:

The probability that she will take a yellow cube.

Solution:

Let Aysha adds x red cubes into the bag. Then,

Number of total cubes = 40+x

Number of red cubes = 18+x

Probability of getting a red cube is:

[tex]P(Red)=\dfrac{18+x}{40+x}[/tex]

The probability now that she will take a red cube is 0.5. So,

[tex]\dfrac{18+x}{40+x}=0.5[/tex]

[tex]18+x=0.5(40+x)[/tex]

[tex]18+x=20+0.5x[/tex]

[tex]x-0.5x=20-18[/tex]

[tex]0.5x=2[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.5.

[tex]x=\dfrac{2}{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]x=4[/tex]

It means Aysha adds 4 more red cubes into the bag.

Now, the total number of cubes int he bag is:

[tex]40+4=44[/tex]

Probability of getting a yellow cube is:

[tex]P(Yellow)=\dfrac{\text{Number of yellow cubes}}{\text{Total number of cubes}}[/tex]

[tex]P(Yellow)=\dfrac{9}{44}[/tex]

Therefore, the required probability is [tex]P(Yellow)=\dfrac{9}{44}[/tex].

Jenna just got done jumping at the Trampoline center. The total cost of the session was $15.23 She had to pay an entrance fee of $7.25 and $1.45 for every minute she was on the trampoline.

Answers

Answer: 5.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question is not complete but I guess they you want to calculate the number of minutes that Jenne was on the trampoline.

Let the number of minutes be represented by m.

Therefore, based in the information, we can form an equation which will be:

7.25 + (1.45 × m) = 15.23

7.25 + 1.45m = 15.23

1.45m = 15.23 - 7.25

1.45m = 7.98

m = 7.98/1.45

m = 5.50

Therefore, Jenna used 5.5 minutes
