A trapezoid is shown. The lengths of the bases K L and J M are 10 feet and 5 feet. The length of side L M is 6 feet. An altitude

is drawn from point K to a point on side J M.
A plot of land has an area of 33.75 square feet. Jackson wants to put a 4-foot by 4-foot shed on the land. He can only do this if the height of the trapezoid is at least 4.5 feet. What is the height of the trapezoid?

The given height of this trapezoid is given to be 4.5m

<h3>How to solve for the height of the trapezoid</h3>

We have to solve for this by making use of the height of a trapezoid. The height is given as

A = (1/2) h (b1 + b2)

The variables here are

h = height

b1 = lenght at base 1

b2 = length at base 2

If the trapezoid that we have is a isosceles triangle, then base 1 is going to be the same length as that of the first base

b1 = 4 ft is the area. Given that the height has to be at least 4.5feet, then this would ensure that the trapezoid would be able to hold the shed.

Hence the height would begiven as 4.5 ft

The probability of a certain brand of battery going dead within 15 hours is. Noah has atoy that requires 4 of these batteries. H
Delicious77 [7]

Question:

The probability of a certain brand of battery going dead within 15 hours is 1/3. Noah has a toy that requires 4 of these batteries. He wants to estimate the probability that at least one battery will die before 15 hours are up.1.Noah will simulate the situation by putting marbles in a bag. Drawing one marble from the bag will represent the outcome of one of the batteries in the toy after 15 hours. Red marbles represent a battery that dies before 15 hours are up, and green marbles represent a battery that lasts longer.How many marbles of each color should he put in the bag? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

The number of marbles of each color that should be present in the bag is;

1 red marble and 2 green marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we note that the probability of a battery going dead = 1/3 and the

Therefore if the red marbles represent that a battery dies before 15 hours then the probability of picking the red marble should be 1/3. That is if there is only one red marble in the bag, the probability of picking the red will be 1/3 when there are other 2 green batteries in the bag

That is there should be 1 red marble and 2 green marble in the bag.

Using the order of operations, what should be done first when evaluating this expression?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

-\frac{16}{17}\\-0.94117

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\left(8\right)}}\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=\frac{-\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}}\\\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}=\frac{17}{32}\\\frac{2\left(9+3\right)-4-3}{4\cdot \:8}\\2\left(9+3\right)-4-3=17\\2\left(9+3\right)-4-3\\2\left(9+3\right)=24\\2\left(9+3\right)\\\mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:9+3=12\\=2\cdot \:12\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:12=24\\=24-4-3
