Answer:

11.4018 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder, wall and floor together form a right triangle with the length of the ladder being the hypotenuse, the distance of the foot of the ladder from the wall being one of the shorter sides and the distance between the top of the ladder and the floor being the other side

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse given the two sides

The general formula is:

c = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}

where c is the hypotenuse and a and b the other two sides

Substituting a = 7 and b = 9 gives:

c = \sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}}\\\\c = \sqrt{7^{2} + 9^{2}}\\\\c = \sqrt{49 + 81}\\\\c = \sqrt{130}\\\\c = 11.4018

So length of ladder = 11.4018 meters

Answer:

11.40

Step-by-step explanation:

in a right angle triangle

the distance from the wall is the adjacent

the height of the wall is the opposite.

using Pythagoras theorem, hypotenuse²= opposite²+adjacent²

hypotenuse²= 7²+9²=49+81=130

hypotenuse=✓130=11.4

Repost 8th grade 50 POINTS+BRAINLIEST: How do you graph a quadratic equation in vertex form when the equation is a perfect squar
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: Vertex : Maximum (2, 0)

Rules:

  • (x + d)² = x² + 2dx + d²    and   (x - d)² = x² - 2dx + d²
  • x² + 2dx = (x + d)² - d²   and  x² - 2dx = (x - d)² - d²

Solve:

x² - 4x + 4

x² - 2(2x) + 2²

(x - 2)²

Into vertex form: a(x - h)² + k

1(x - 2)² + 0

Identify:

vertex : (h, k) = (2, 0)

Find additional things, to graph the equation:

(i) x-intercept: (2, 0)

(ii) y-intercept: (0, 4)

The amount that households pay service providers for access to the Internet varies quite a bit, but the mean monthly fee is $50
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

(a) See Explanation

(b) \bar x =50 and \sigma_x = 0.8944

(c) The shape is normal

(d) P(\bar x > 55) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\mu = \$50 -- mean

\sigma = \$20 --- standard deviation

n=500 --- sample size

Solving (a): The reason we can't determine the probability that an amount to access internet by a household will exceed $55.

The question says that a lot of households pay low rates, but the percentage of the households in this category is not given. This means that it is impossible to determine the shape of the distribution.

Hence, the probability cannot be calculated.

Solving (b): Sample mean and Sample standard deviation

The sample mean estimates the population mean

So:

\bar x =\mu

\bar x =50

The sample standard deviation is calculated as thus:

\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}

\sigma_x = \frac{20}{\sqrt{500}}

\sigma_x = \frac{20}{22.36}

\sigma_x = 0.8944

Solving (c): The shape of the distribution.

We have:

n = 500 --- The sample size

According to Central limit theorem, When the sample size is greater than 30, then the shape of the distribution is normal.

<em>Hence, the shape is normal</em>

Solving (d): P(\bar x \ge 55)

Calculate the test statistic (t)

t = \frac{\bar x - \mu}{\sigma}

t = \frac{55 - 50}{0.8945}

t = \frac{5}{0.8945}

t = 5.590

So:

P(\bar x > 55) = P(t > 5.590)

Referencing the z table, we have:

P(t > 5.590) = 0

Hence:

P(\bar x > 55) = 0

I'm struggling on questions 7,8 and 10 please help and show work, thank you!
dusya [7]
Question 7

(37,065 - 26, 102)/(37, 065) = P/100

(10, 963)/(37, 065) = P/100

37, 065P = (10, 963)(100)

37,065P = 109, 630

P = 109, 630 ÷ 37, 065

P = 2.9577768785

P = 295.78%

Do likewise for the rest of the questions.

To change from decimal to percent, move the decimal point two places to the right and then add the percent symbol (%).
