A 12 foot fence on the property line casts a 25 foot shadow on the shortest day of the year, and the north side of the house is set back 60 feet from the property line.

Answers

Answer 1

Using similar triangles formed by the fence, and the house, the top of which the property line passes, the height of the house can be determined.

The height of the house is 28.8 feet.

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

Height of the fence = 12 foot

Length of the shadow cast by the fence = 25 foot

Distance of the house from the property line = 60 feet

The maximum allowable height for the house.

Solution:

Using similar triangles, we have;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{Height \ of \, fence}{Length \ of \ fence \ shadow} = \mathbf{\frac{Height \ of \, house}{Distance \ of \ house\ from \ property \ line}}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{12}{25} = \mathbf{\frac{Height \ of \, house}{60}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle Height \ of \ house = \frac{12}{25} \times 60 = 28.8[/tex]

The height of the house = 28.8 feet

What is the lateral surface area of this rectangular prism?

Answer: 208 in^2

5/9 + 1/3 × 1/3 = 0.66666666666 = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime factorization of 100,000 is 2^5 × 5^5. Since it has a total of 10 prime factors, 100,000 is a composite number.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.8-0.2=4+0.2−0.2

5.6 = 4x

5.6/4  = 4x/4

x= 1.4

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Square sides are equal..

A=a^2=1.1^2≈1.21

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The lateral surface area of a rectangular prism can be calculated by finding the sum of all the lateral faces of the prism, i.e. the total area excluding the area of the bases. The formula to find the surface area of a rectangular prism is given as, Lateral surface area of a rectangular prism = 2(l + b) h square units.

When a prism has its bases facing up and down, the lateral area is the area of the vertical faces. (For a rectangular prism, any pair of opposite faces can be bases.) The lateral area of a right prism can be calculated by multiplying the perimeter of the base by the height of the prism.

6d: lower q is 15
6e upper q is 18

Answer:

Q1 = 13.5

Q3 = 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6d) ===============

12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 17, 17, 17, 17, 18, 19, 20

I counted 12 numbers in this set. The median is the middle number of a sorted set. It's also the 2nd quartile as it is 2 quarters in, or 50% in.

First, find the median. In an even-numbered set, that's the average of the 2 middle numbers. In this case, it's between 17 and 17:

12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 17 === 17, 17, 17, 18, 19, 20

Now the set is split into 2 sets with 6 numbers each. Now, find the median of each of those sets. Again, the median of an even-numbered set is the average of the 2 middle numbers.

To find the first quartile (Q1), find the median of the lower set.

12, 12, 13 === 14, 14, 17

The median here is the average of 13 and 14, so 13.5.

6e) ==============

Exactly the same process as above.

7, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 17, 17, 17, 18, 19, 20

12 numbers again.

7, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14 === 17, 17, 17, 18, 19, 20

Now, to find the third quartile, find the median of the upper set.

17, 17, 17 === 18, 19, 20

The median is the average of 17 and 18, or 17.5.

Bruno and Willie need a total of $50,000 to start an accounting business. Bruno has spent a lot of time getting the business set up, so Willie agrees to contribute $12,000 more than Bruno. How much money will Willie contribute?

Answers

The amount contributed by Willie and Bruno is $31000 and $19,000 respectively.

Let amount contributed by Willie be x

Let amount contributed by Bruno be y

Since Willie agreed to contribute $12,000 more than Bruno;

Therefore;

x - y = 12000....…....... equation (1)

x + y = 50,000...…....... equation (2)

By solving the system of equations simultaneously;

2x = 62000

x = 31000

and y = 50,000 - 31000

y = 19,000

In essence; The amount contributed by Willie and Bruno is $31000 and $19,000 respectively.

7. Write an inequality that matches the graph shown.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we define the line.

the slope is -3 (as for every increase of x by 1 unit, y changes by -3 units, which makes the slope -3/1 = -3).

the y-intercept is 2.

so, the line is

y = -3x + 2

now the graph shows that we need to define all y values that are below (and that means smaller than) the result values of the line function.

the line is not included.

therefore the inequality is

y < -3x + 2 or 3x + y < 2

Use angle relationships to complete the top equation. Then, solve for x and find the measure of both angles.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These two angles are interior and on the same side of the transversal. Therefore they are supplementary.

6x + x + 5 = 180

7x + 5 = 180                   Subtract 5 from both sides

7x = 180 - 5

7x = 175                        Divide by 7

x = 175/7

x = 25

x + 5 = 25 + 5 = 30

6x = 6*25 =       150

A car's velocity is modeled by V(t)=0.5t^2 -8t +24 ,where the velocity is in feet per second and time is in seconds. When does the car come to a complete stop
12 seconds
8 seconds
4 seconds
2 seconds

Answers

The velocity of the car is the rate of change of distance over time.

The car comes to a complete stop at 12 seconds

The velocity function is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{V(t) = 0.5t^2 - 8t + 24}[/tex]

When the car comes to a complete stop, V(t) = 0.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{0.5t^2 - 8t + 24 = 0}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\mathbf{0.5t^2 - 6t - 2t + 24 = 0}[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]\mathbf{0.5t(t - 12) - 2(t - 12) = 0}[/tex]

Factor out t - 12

[tex]\mathbf{(0.5t - 2)(t - 12) = 0}[/tex]

Split

[tex]\mathbf{(0.5t - 2) =0\ or\ (t - 12) = 0}[/tex]

Solve for t

[tex]\mathbf{0.5t =2\ or\ t = 12}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{t =4\ or\ t = 12}[/tex]

12 > 4.

Hence, the car comes to a complete stop at 12 seconds
