Mathematics

Viefleur [7K]2 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

A flagpole is 53 feet tall. Most of the time, this will be a vertical side of the triangle.

The flagpole and the ground are perpendicular to each other so they should form the legs of the triangles, this the triangle will be a right angle.

The rope will be the hypotenuse, the side opposite of the right angle.

34kurt

Answer:

                \dfrac{1}{30}

Step-by-step explanation:

6 symbols and 4-symbol code so number of combinations wich doesn't contain the same symbol twice would be:

6•5•4•3 = 360

If code starts with a star followed by triangle that means only one posibility for first two symbols and code doesn't containing the same symbol twice means that left 4 symbols for next two.

So number of combinations of code starting with a star followed by triangle and doesn't containing the same symbol twice will be:

1•1•4•3 = 12

The probability that a randomly chosen code starts with a star followed by triangle and doesn't contain the same symbol twice:

\dfrac{1\cdot1\cdot4\cdot3}{6\cdot5\cdot4\cdot3}=\dfrac{1\cdot1}{6\cdot5}=\dfrac{1}{30}

Custom Greetings places an order for 300 reams of card stock paper. Its supplier offers Custom Greetings a 35% trade discount. I
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

<em>Net price: $4972.50</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

We know a ream of paper has a list price of $25.50. Custom Greetings placed an order for 300 of them. If they have purchased them at list price, the total price would have been

300*25.50=$7,650

But we also know there was a 35% trade discount, so the net price of their order is

$7,650-$7,650*35/100=$4972.50

The price of a computer component is decreasing at a rate of 15​% per year. State whether this decrease is linear or exponential
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Since the price is given by an exponential function, the decline in price is exponential.

The component will cost $36.8475 in three years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the price of a component has the following format:

P(t) = P(0)(1-r)^{t}

In which P(t) is the price after t years, P(0) is the initial price, and r is the rate that the price decreases.

Since the price is given by an exponential function, the decline in price is exponential.

The price of a computer component is decreasing at a rate of 15​% per year.

This means that r = 0.15

Component costs ​$60 ​today

So P(0) = 60. Then

P(t) = P(0)(1-r)^{t}

P(t) = 60(1-0.15)^{t}

P(t) = 60(0.85)^{t}

What will it cost in three​ years?

This is P(3).

P(t) = 60(0.85)^{t}

P(3) = 60(0.85)^{3} = 36.8475

The component will cost $36.8475 in three years.

love history [14]

Answer: H = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation: Since a triangle's area is b times h/2, we know that two times 48 is 96, therefore we can opposite the equation so 12 is the base times the height (8 cm) is 96 divided by 2, there's your answer.
