brian borrowed a 20-foot extension ladder to use to paint his house. If he sets the base of the ladder six feet from the house how far up will the top of the ladder reach?

Answers

Answer 1

The ladder Brian borrowed for painting should go 19.08 feet up the house if Brian sets the base 6 feet from the house

How to find the distance up the house the ladder will go

information given in the question

hypotenuse = 20-foot ladder

adjacent = 6 feet from the house

opposite =  how far up the house = ?

The problem is solved using the Pythagoras theorem is applicable to right angle triangle.  the formula of the theorem is

hypotenuse² = opposite² + adjacent²

plugging the values as in the problem

let x be the required distance

20² = 6² + x²

400 = 36 + x²

400 - 36 = x²

x² = 364

x = √364

x = 19.08

At the gym on Saturday, Reese ran 5 miles in the treadmill and then the completed 1 mile in the elliptical machine and burned 725 calories. On Sunday she ran 3 miles on the treadmill and completed 1 mile in the elliptical, and burned 505 calories. Write and solve a linear system to find the number of calories Reese burns on the machine

Answers

Answer:The equations are 5t + e = 725 and 3t + e = 505

Step-by-step explanation:Subtract equation (2) from equation (1) and you arrive at;

2t = 220

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

t = 110

Having calculated the value of t, substitute for the value of t into equation (1)

5t + e = 725

5(110) + e = 725

550 + e = 725

Subtract 550 from both sides of the equation

e = 175

The above calculations shows that the calories burned on each gym equipment are;

Treadmill = 110 per hour

Elliptical = 175 per hour

36 and 30 percentage of 10​

Answers

Answer: 120

explanation: We already have our first value 36 and the second value 30. Let's assume the unknown value is Y which answer we will find out.

As we have all the required values we need, Now we can put them in a simple mathematical formula as below:

STEP 136 = 30% × Y

STEP 236 =

30

100

× Y

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides of the equation by 30 we will arrive at:

STEP 3Y = 36 ×

100

30

STEP 4Y = 36 × 100 ÷ 30

STEP 5Y = 120

Finally, we have found the value of Y which is 120 and that is our answer.

You can easily calculate 36 is 30 percent of what number by using any regular calculator, simply enter 36 × 100 ÷ 30 and you will get your answer which is 120

The value of y that makes the two matrices inverse of each other is 1/2

The inverse of a square matrix A, denoted by A⁻¹.

The formula is [tex]\frac{1}{|A|}.adj(A)[/tex]

The product of A and A⁻¹  should be the identity matrix. The identity matrix that results will be the same size as matrix A.

Inverse of given first matrix is

Adjoint of matrix = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc}-4&-14\\2&6\end{array}\right][/tex]

Inverse of matrix = [tex]\frac{1}{|A|}.adj(A)[/tex]

Therefore , Inverse = [tex]\frac{1}{4}.\left[\begin{array}{cc}-4&-14\\2&6\end{array}\right][/tex]

Answers

The greatest percent error among the predictions is of:

2.23%.

How to obtain the percent error of a measure?

The percent error of a measure is obtained by the division of the difference between the actual value and the estimated value by the actual value, and multiplied by 100%, hence the equation is:

Percent error = |Actual - Estimate|/Actual x 100%.

From the given dot plot, we have that the farthest measure from 22.4 seconds is of 22.9 seconds.

The difference between the actual time and the estimate time is of:

22.9 seconds - 22.4 seconds = 0.5 seconds.

Applying the presented division, the percent error is given as follows:

Answers

The joint relative frequency is 23%. So option (1) is correct.

Joint relative frequency is defined as the ratio of a frequency that is not in the total row or column to the total number of values or observations. The marginal frequency in a two-way frequency table is the entry in the "total" for the column and the "total" for the row.

Given data:

                         Traditional     Online       Row totals

Computer:             28                62               90

Mobile device:       46                64              110

Column totals:       74               126             200

The joint relative frequency can be found by the formula:

= (Number of students using a mobile device in traditional class / Total Number of students) x 100%

Number of students using mobile devices in traditional class = 46

Total number of students = 200

= (46 / 200) x 100%

= 0.23 x 100%

= 23 %

Therefore the joint relative frequency of students in traditional classes using a mobile device is 23%.

The sides of a triangle are in the ratio of 3:4:5. A man jogged around it 5 times and cover a distance of 3000m What are the sides of the triangle?​

Answers

The sides of the triangle are 150m, 200m and 250m.

What is distance?

Distance is a measurement of how far apart two things or points are, either numerically or occasionally qualitatively. Distance can refer to a physical length in physics or to an estimate based on other factors in common usage.

Given: The sides of a triangle are in the ratio of 3:4:5. A man jogged around it 5 times and cover a distance of 3000m.

As man jogged around triangle  5 times and cover a distance of 3000m.

So, the distance for one round is 3000/5 = 600m.

The covered distance is nothing but the perimeter of the triangle.

So, the perimeter of the triangle is 600m.

Let, 3x, 4x, 5x are the sides of the triangle.

⇒ 3x + 4x + 5x = 600

                 12 x = 600

                      x = 50

Therefore,

3x = 3(50) = 150

4x = 4(50) = 200

5x = 5(50) = 250

Hence, the sides of the triangle are, 150m, 200m and 250m.

112/200 = 0.56

0.56 as a percentage:

0.56 * 100 = 56%

Answer::

To do percentages with fractions,

divide the numerator by denominator to get a decimal,

so for example, your question, 112/200

112/200 is 0.56 decimal, and then to make it percent,

we multiply by 100,

how does that work?

you move two places to the right because 100 has two zeros

so 0.56 would be 56,

therefore the percent of 112/200 would be 56%

A line parallel to the line 4x + 7y = 49 - 2x + 4y must have a slope of - 2.

What are lines and their slopes?

We know lines have various types of equations, the general type is

Ax + By + c = 0, and the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + b.

Where slope = m and b = y-intercept.

the slope is the rate of change of the y-axis with respect to the x-axis and the y-intercept is the (0,b) where the line intersects the y-axis at x = 0.

Given a line that is 4x + 7y = 49 - 2x + 4y.

7y - 4y = - 2x - 4x + 49.

3y = - 6x + 49.

y = - 2x + 49/3.

Now, lines parallel to each other have the same slope.

The roots for the given quadratic equation 2x² - 9 = 3x is {3, -1.5}.

What is a quadratic equation?

The Quadratic equations are second-order polynomial equations such as ax² + bx +c = 0 for x, where a ≠ 0.

It has at least one solution that could be real or complex.

The given equation is 2x² - 9 = 3x.

Now expressing in the form of ax² + bx + c = 0, we get

                        2x² - 3x - 9 = 0,

a = 2, b = -3, c = -9, Now solving the above equation, we get

                       2x² - 6x + 3x - 9 =0

                       2x(x - 3) + 3(x - 3) = 0

                       (x - 3)(2x + 3) = 0

               x - 3 = 0       (or)        2x + 3 = 0

                x = 3            (or)         x = -1.5
