For a project in his Geometry class, Nathaniel uses a mirror on the ground to measure the height of his school’s flagpole. He walks a distance of 7.95 meters from the flagpole, then places a mirror on flat on the ground, marked with an X at the center. He then steps 1.15 meters to the other side of the mirror, until he can see the top of the flagpole clearly marked in the X. His partner measures the distance from his eyes to the ground to be 1.65 meters. How tall is the flagpole? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a meter.

For A Project In His Geometry Class, Nathaniel Uses A Mirror On The Ground To Measure The Height Of His

Answers

Answer 1

The height of the flagpole to the nearest hundredth is 11.41 m

Similar shapes

In order to get the height of the flagpole, we will use the similarity theorem of shapes.

From the given diagram, we will have the expression

1.65/1.15 = x/7.95

Cross multiply

1.15x = 1.65 * 7.95

1.15x = 13.1175

x = 13.1175/1.15

x = 11.406

Hence the height of the flagpole to the nearest hundredth is 11.41 m

Nick was surveying his field and saw some cows and ducks. Nick counted a total of 80 heads and
248 legs. Assuming there are no mutations in the animals, determine exactly how many ducks and
cows he saw. Let X represent the number of ducks and y represent the cows.
Total Equation:
Legs Equation:
How many ducks?
How many cows?

Answers

Answer:

44 cows and 36 ducks.

Step-by-step explanation:

x is ducks and y is cows.

Assuming both have 1 head each, we can write:

x + y = 80.

Let's assume each x(cow) has 4 legs and each y(duck) has two legs.

Then we can add the numbers of legs:

2x + 4y = 248 legs

Now rearrange x + y = 80 to:

x = 80-y

and substitute:

2x + 4y = 248 legs

2(80-y) + 4y = 248 legs

160 - 2y + 4y = 248 legs

2y = 88 legs

y = 44   [There are 44 cows]

Use this value to find the number of ducks:

x + y = 80

44 + y = 80

y = 36  [There are 36 ducks]

========================

Levi is planning a road trip. He throws a dart on a map of the United States to decide where to go. There are 4 states that start with the letter A, 3 states that start with the letter C, and 8 states that start with the letter M. What is the probability that Levi throws a dart on a state that starts with an A or an M? (Hint: There are 50 total states.)

P(A∪M)=

1) 0.01
2) 0.24
3) 0.64
4) 0.42

Answers

Answer:

since there are 4 states that start with A and 8 that start with M, this means that out of the 50 states there are 12 states that he could throw a dart at and get either A or M, meaning that 12/50 is the fraction and 12/50 converted into a percentage or decimal is 0.24 meaning that 0.24 is the probability that he throws a dart and hits a state that starts with an A or M

Find the maximum area for a rectangle with a perimeter of 120 meters.

Answers

Answer:

900 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = length, y = width

perimeter = 2x + 2y = 2(x + y) = 120. so

x + y = 60, or y = 60 - x

Area = xy = x(60 - x) = 60x - x^2

= -(x^2 - 60x + 30^2) + 30^2

= 900 - (x - 30)^2

Note (x - 30)^2 is never negative, at least zero.

When (x - 30) = 0, the area is the largest which is 900 m^2

Answers

Answer:

1. f(x) - 7

2. The lines do not have same x-intercept

3. a(x) = f(x+7)

4. b(x) = f(x-3)

5.  c(x) = f(x) + 5 and c(x) = f(x+5) are two functions that can represent c(x)

6. a. g(x) = f(x-8)

   b. Slope of g(x) = 1                                        

   c. y-intercept = (0, -8)

7. a. p(x)=f(x+6) is vertical transformation of f(x) = x. f(x) is the parent function.

   b.(please check explanation section.)

For the second page, here are the answers

5.

a. False

The slope of f(x) will be steeper than m(x)

b. False

The y-intercept doesn't change due to multiplication of 3/5

6. C. h(x) = 3f(x-5)

7. d(x) = 1/4 f(x) + 9

8. Erika: c(x) = 4f(x) + 4 is the first graph

Landry: c(x) = -4f(x) + 3 is the second graph

Step-by-step explanation:

1. f(x) - 7 = x - 7 ( y intercept is translated down when g(x) = x - k )

2. The lines do not have same x-intercept. ( x-intercept of f(x)=x is (0,0) and that of f(x-10) is (0,10)

3. a(x) = f(x) + 7 = x + 7 = f(x+7)

4. b(x) = f(x) - 3 = x - 3 = f(x-3)

5. c(x) = f(x) + 5 = x + 5 = f( x+5)

   c(x) = f(x) + 5 and c(x) = f(x+5) are two functions that can represent c(x)

6. a. g(x) = f(x) - 8 = x -8 = f(x-8)

    b. Slope of g(x) = Slope of f(x)      

         Slope of f(x) =  d(f(x)/dx = dx/dx = 1

          Therefore Slope of g(x) = Slope of f(x) = 1      

c. y-intercept = (0, -8)       (In this case The y-intercept of g (x)=f(x-8) is translated down as -8<0 by 8 units.)

Jim is 4 years older than mark if the sum of their ages is 44 find the age of each person

Answers

Answer:

jim is 24 years old,  Mark is 20 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

This prompt can be set up using this equation:

Let's represent Mark's age by variable m and Jim's age by variable J.

j + m = 44

m + 4 = j

m = j - 4

j + (j - 4) = 44

2j - 4 = 44

2j = 48

j = 24

So, jim is 24 years old, meaning mark must be 20 years old. 20 + 24 results in 44 years old together.

The curved surface area of a right circular cylinder of height 14 cm is 88 cm². ​

Answers

Answer:

The diameter of the base of the cylinder is 2 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN :

As per given question we have provided that :

➣ Height of cylinder = 14 cm➣ Curved surface area = 88 cm²

[tex]\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}[/tex]

TO FIND :

in the provided question we need to find :

➠ Radius of cylinder ➠ Diameter of cylinder

[tex]\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}[/tex]

USING FORMULAS :

[tex]\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Csa = 2 \pi rh}}}}}[/tex]

[tex]\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{d = 2r}}}}}[/tex]

➛ Csa = Curved surface area ➛ π = 22/7➛ r = radius ➛ h = height ➛ d = diameter

[tex]\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}[/tex]

SOLUTION :

Firstly, finding the radius of cylinder by substituting the values in the formula :

[tex] \begin{gathered} \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Csa = 2 \pi rh}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{88 = 2 \times \dfrac{22}{7} \times r \times 14}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{88 =\dfrac{44}{7} \times r \times 14}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{88 =\dfrac{44}{\cancel{7}}\times r \times \cancel{ 14}}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{88 =44 \times r \times 2}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{88 =88 \times r}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{r = \frac{88}{88}}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\underline{\underline{\sf{\pink{r = 1 \: cm}}}}}} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the radius of cylinder is 1 cm.

———————————————————————

Now, finding the diameter of cylinder by substituting the values in the formula :

[tex]\begin{gathered} \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{d = 2r}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{d = 2 \times 1}}} \\ \\ \qquad{\longrightarrow{\underline{\underline{\sf{\red{r = 2 \: cm}}}}}}\end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the diameter of the base of the cylinder is 2 cm.

[tex]\rule{300}{2.5}[/tex]

CSA of a cylinder = 88 cm²

height = 14 cm

diameter = ?

CSA of a cylinder = 88 cm²

2πrh = 88 cm²

____

[tex]2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r \times 14 = 88 cm²[/tex]

[tex]2 \times \frac{22}{1} \times r \times2 \: = 88 cm²[/tex]

[tex]2 \times 22 \times r \times 2 = 88 cm²[/tex]

[tex]88r = 88 cm²[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{88}{88} [/tex]

[tex]r = 1 [/tex]

____

Diameter = radius + radius

= 1 + 1

= 2

____

Therefore, The Diameter of the base of the cylinder is 2.
