The Table Above Shows The Percent Of The Area Of A Towndevoted To Three Uses. If The Area Devoted To

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  B)  1,800 acres

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

Explanation:

Let

r = area devoted to residential use

This variable is some positive real number, and it represents the area in acres.

Your teacher says that " the area devoted to business use is 7,200 acres less than the area devoted to residential use"

This means the expression r-7200 represents the area for business use

Note the jump from 25% to 65% is 65/25 = 2.6, meaning that we multiply by 2.6 when going from the business area to the residential area.

So we'll multiply by 2.6 to go from r-7200 to r

We'll have this equation

2.6(r-7200) = r

because it's effectively saying

2.6*(business area) = residential area

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

Let's isolate r

2.6(r-7200) = r

2.6r-2.6*7200 = r

2.6r - 18720 = r

2.6r - r = 18720

1.6r = 18720

r = 18720/(1.6)

r = 11700

We'll use 11700 acres for the residential portion.

And also r-7200 = 11700-7200 = 4500 acres are set aside for the business district.

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

The largest region (residential) uses 11700 acres of land.

Note the jump from 10% to 65% involves a multiplier of 6.5 because 65/10 = 6.5

So if g is the amount of government land used, then,

6.5g = r

6.5g = 11700

g = 11700/(6.5)

g = 1800

1800 acres of land are for government use

This is why the answer is choice B.

Answer 2

The area, in acres, devoted to government use is 1800.

Option (B) is correct.

To find the area.

What is percentage?

Percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.

Given that:

Let

r = area devoted to residential use

This variable is some positive real number, and it represents the area in acres.

This means the expression r-7200 represents the area for business use

Note the jump from 25% to 65% is 65/25 = 2.6, meaning that we multiply by 2.6 when going from the business area to the residential area.

To multiply by 2.6 to go from r-7200 to r

The equation is

2.6(r-7200) = r

because it's effectively saying

2.6*(business area) = residential area

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

Let's isolate r

2.6(r-7200) = r

2.6r-2.6*7200 = r

2.6r - 18720 = r

2.6r - r = 18720

1.6r = 18720

r = 18720/(1.6)

r = 11700

We'll use 11700 acres for the residential portion.

And also r-7200 = 11700-7200 = 4500 acres are set aside for the business district.

The largest region (residential) uses 11700 acres of land.

Note the jump from 10% to 65% involves a multiplier of 6.5 because 65/10 = 6.5

So if g is the amount of government land used, then,

6.5g = r

6.5g = 11700

g = 11700/(6.5)

g = 1800

So, the area, in acres, devoted to government use is 1800.

Each corner of a rectangular prism is cut off. Two (of the eight) cuts are shown. How many edges does the new figure have? Assume that the planes cutting the prism do not intersect anywhere in or on the prism. EXPLAIN PLS

Answers

Answer:

  36

Step-by-step explanation:

Each cut creates a triangular face where the corner used to be. That face adds three edges to the figure. The 8 cuts add a total of 8×3 = 24 edges to the 12 edges the prism already had.

The new figure has 12+24 = 36 edges.

A stone is dropped of a 1296-ft-cliff. The height of the stone above the ground is given by the equation h= - 16t^2+1296, where h is the stone’s height in feet, and t is the time in seconds after the stone is dropped. Find the time required for the stone to hit the ground.

Answers

When stone hits the ground, it's height will be zero, and since we're finding the time that's required for the stone to hit the ground, we can set h = 0 and solve for t.

The time required for the stone to hit the ground[tex]v(9)=-288,a(9)=-32[/tex].

What is the equation?

The definition of an equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal.

Here given that,

A stone is dropped of a [tex]1296[/tex]-ft-cliff. The height of the stone above the ground is given by the equation [tex]h=-16t^2+1296[/tex], where [tex]h[/tex] is the stone’s height in feet, and [tex]t[/tex] is the time in seconds after the stone is dropped.

So,

[tex]h=-16t^2+1296\\\\v(t)=\frac{ds}{dt}=-32t+0\\\\=-32t\\\\\\a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}=-32[/tex]

When [tex]s(t)=0[/tex] now solve it for [tex]t[/tex] so,

[tex]-16t^2+1296=0\\\\t^2=\frac{1296}{16}\\\\t^2=81\\\\t=\sqrt{81}\\\\t=9seconds[/tex]

When [tex]t=9[/tex] so,

[tex]v(9)=-32(9)\\\\v(9)=-288[/tex]

nd

[tex]a(9)=-32[/tex]

Hence, the time required for the stone to hit the ground[tex]v(9)=-288,a(9)=-32[/tex].

A right pyramid with a square base has
volume of 252 cubic centimeters. The
length of one of the sides of its base is 6
centimeters. Rounded to the nearest
centimeter, what is the vertical height of
the pyramid?

Answers

Hey there!

A right pyramid with a square base just means that it isn't slanted all funny. If you create a triangle with a point on one of the edges of the base, the center of the base, and the top of the pyramid, it would be a right triangle.

To find the volume of a right pyramid, you just take the base area, multiply it by the height, and then divide by three.

However, we are looking for the height. We have been given, so we will just go backwards.

252×3=756 (multiply instead of divide)

6×6=36 (base is a square, so you just square 6. This is our base area)

756/36=21

So, the vertical height of the pyramid is 21 cubic centimeters.

A news article estimated that only 5% of those age 65 and older who prefer to watch the news, rather than to read or listen, watch the news online. This estimate was based on a survey of a large sample of adult Americans. Consider the population consisting of all adult Americans age 65 and older who prefer to watch the news, and suppose that for this population the actual proportion who prefer to watch online is 0.05. A random sample of n = 100 people will be selected from this population and p, the proportion of people who prefer to watch online, will be calculated.
(a) What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of p? (Round your standard deviation to four decimal places.
(b) Is the sampling distribution of p approximately normal for random samples of size n 100? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

A. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Stepwise regression is a variable-selection method for independent variables.

Stepwise regression  helps us to recognize and choose the most handy descriptive variables from a list of several reasonable independent variables.

It entails a series of steps that is drafted to locate the most handy X-variable to incorporate in a regression model. During each step of the course of action or method, each X - variable is estimated by applying a set criterion to determine if it is meant to exist in the model.

The basis for selection can be choosing a variable which satisfies the stipulated criterion or removing a variable that least satisfies the criterion. A typical illustration of such criterion is the t value.

Even though the kilometre has replaced it to a large extent as the standard measure of length, it is still the main unit of measurement for distances in the United States, the United Kingdom, Liberia and UK and US oversees territories.

Miles are longer than kilometres as a kilometer is equivalent to only 0.621371 miles.
