How to calulate how high a tree that is 5m high and shadow is 4m?

1 answer:

3 0

If you are trying to figure out the distance between the top of the tree and the end of the shadow, use a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the legs of the right triangle.
5^2 + 4^2 = c^2
25 + 16 = c^2
41 = c^2
c = √41 = 6.4 meters

Find the area bounded by the curve y = x1/2 + 2 the x - axis, and the lines x = 1 and x = 4?

Serggg [28]

The area is given by

$\displaystyle\int_1^4(x^{1/2}+2)\,\mathrm dx=\left(\frac23x^{3/2}+2x\right)\bigg|_{x=1}^{x=4}=\dfrac{40}3-\dfrac83=\dfrac{32}3=10+\dfrac23$

so the answer is B

Formulate the indicated conclusion in nontechnical terms. Be sure to address the original claim.

Answer:

a) There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean attendance is greater than 642.

Step-by-step explanation:

since in the question it is mentioned that the average attendance at games should be more 642 and according to this he moving the team with a larger stadium. Also the hypothesis conducted and the conclusion would be failure to deny the null hypothesis

So here the conclusion that should be made in non-technical term is that there should be no enough proof in order to support the claim that the mean attendence is more than $642

Answer:

x = - 8, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$x = - 4y......(1) \\ x + 5y = 2....(2) \\ plug \: x = - 4y \: in \: equation \: (2) \\ - 4y + 5y = 2 \\ y = 2 \\ plug \: y = 2 \: in \: equation \: (1) \\ x = - 4(2) \\ x = - 8\\$
