If you place a 29-foot ladder against the top of a building and the bottom of the ladder is 24 feet from the bottom of the building, how tall is the building? Round to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The height of the building to the nearest tenth is 16. 3 ft

The situation forms a right triangle.

Properties of a right triangle:One of its angles is 90 degreesThe sides can can be found using Pythagoras theorem.

The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed.

The distance from the foot of the ladder to the bottom of the building is the adjacent sides.

Therefore,

c² = a² + b²

where

c = hypotenuse

a and b are the other two legs.

b² = 29² - 24²

b² = 841 - 576

b = √265

b = 16.2788205961

b = 16.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, we've kinda been through the steps, so imma give the abridged version:

Volume:

5 x 13 = 33

30 x 19 = 630

LA:

19 x 13 = 247

19 x 12 = 228

5 x 19 = 95

247 + 228 + 95 = 570

SA:

12 x 5 = 60

60 + 570 = 630

J Compound interest; $298.65
no

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  J Compound interest; $298.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest compounding pays interest on the interest. For the same annual rate, any amount of compounding will earn more interest.

For short time periods, the effect of compounding is not great. In general, it will be a fraction of the equivalent simple interest rate. Here, the effective multiplier for annual compounding is ...

  1.051^4 = 1.22024337

and the effective multiplier for simple interest is ...

  1 +0.051·4 = 1.204

Then the difference in interest rate multiplier for the 4-year period is ...

  1.22024337 -1.204 = 0.01614337

That fraction of the $18500 principal is $298.65.

Compound interest earns $298.65 more than simple interest in this scenario.

Justin bought 5 apples and 4 oranges for £45. On another occasion, he bought 2 apples and 8 oranges which cost £50. Find the cost of 3 apples and 7 oranges

Answers

Answer:

the cost of 3 apples and 7 oranges be £15 and £35 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the apple be x

And, the oranges be y

Now according to the question

5x + 4y = £45

And,

2x + 8y = £50

Multiply by 2 in equation 1

So,

10x + 8y = £90

2x + 8y = £50

8x = £40

x = £5

And, y be

5(£5) + 4y = £45

£25 + 4y = £45

4y = 20

y = £5

So, the cost of 3 apples and 7 oranges be £15 and £35 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

34 petri dishes are prepared with a growth medium. 16 are randomly selected and treated with antibiotic A. The other 18 are treated with antibiotic B. Each dish is inoculated with a bacteria. Several hours later, the diameter of the bacteria colony in each dish is measured in mm, with these results:


A: 8.59, 7.80, 4.11, 8.68, 8.08, 7.86, 6.97, 8.21, 1.72, 8.13, 7.48, 6.33, 8.32, 8.65, 3.06, 8.90

B: 5.59, 6.96, 5.25, 6.46, 0.09, 7.70, 3.10, 0.94, 7.00, 7.91, 6.39, 7.45, 5.79, 6.66, 5.91, 6.62, 5.07, 7.25


Let µA and µB be the respective population mean diameters across many similar hypothetical experiments. Consider a test at level α = 0.10 of H0 : µA − µB = 0 vs. HA : µA − µB 6= 0.(a) Do you think it is plausible that the samples came from approximately normal distributions? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

(a) According to the central limit theorem, the distributions of the sample means of sufficiently large samples randomly selected from a population with mean, μ and standard deviation, σ with replacement will be normally distributed

Therefore, given that the size of the population from which the samples were selected (34 petri dishes) is comparable the sizes of the samples, (16 and 18), therefore, the samples are approximately normal

Also given that the petri dishes were prepared with growth medium designed to increase the growth of microorganisms, with an expected amount of growth, the samples therefore came from approximately normal distributions

7. The rent for an apartment was $5,600 per year in 2018. If the
rent increased at a rate of 4% each year thereafter, use an
exponential equation to find the rent of the apartment in 2025.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $7369

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function is of the form ...

  f(x) = a·b^x

where 'a' is the initial value, and 'b' is the growth factor. When the growth is given as a growth rate (4% per year), the growth factor is that value plus 1.

Here, the initial value, for x=0 in 2018, is 5600. So, the exponential model of the rent is ...

  r(x) = 5600·(1 +.04)^x

  r(x) = 5600·1.04^x . . . . . . . for x years after 2018

__

In 2025, we have x=2025 -2018 = 7. Then the rent is ...

  r(7) = 5600·1.04^7 ≈ 7369

The rent of the apartment in 2025 is $7369 per year.
