DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

3000 girls
38 fishes
37 points
115 marbles
19 gray coloured cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown values be x

30 class mates = 1 class room

18 girls in 1 classroom

18 girls in 30 classmates

x girls in 5000 class mates

$18\:girls= 30\:students\\x\:girls = 5000\:students\\\\Cross\:Multiply\\\\30x = 90000\\\\Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:30\\\frac{30x}{30} = \frac{90000}{30}\\ \\x = 3000\\= 3000 girls$

$2.5\:miles = 12 \:fishes\\8\:miles = x\:fishes\\\\Cross\:Multiply\\2.5x = 96\\\\Divide\:both\:sides\:of\:the\:equation\:by\:2.5\\\\\frac{2.5x}{2.5}=\frac{96}{2.5}\\ \\x = 38.4\\Approximately \: =38\:fishes$

$8\:minutes = 14\: points\\21 \:minutes = x \:points\\\\Cross\:Multiply\\8x = 294\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}8\\\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{294}{8}\\\\Simplify\\x=\frac{147}{4}\\\\x = 36.75\\\\Approximately\:= 37\:points$

$32\:marbles = 5\:inches\\x\:marbles = 18\:inches\\\\Cross\:Multiply\\5x = 576\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5\\\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{576}{5}\\\\x=\frac{576}{5}\\\\x =115.2\\= 115=\:marbles$

$2 \: gray\:colour= 15\:cars\\x\:gray= 140\:cars\\\\Cross\:Multiply\\\\15x = 280\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}15\\\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{280}{15}\\\\Simplify\\x=\frac{56}{3}\\\\x =18.666\\Approximately ;\\19$

Luda [366]

Answer:

74.05 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

A ladder leans against a building. The foot of the ladder is 2 feet from the building and reaches to a point 7 feet high on the building.

The ladder forms a right angle triangle with the building

Base of the triangle is 2 feet

The distance between the ground and the top of the ladder is 7 feet

the graph is attached below

AB= 2, AC = 7

We know the opposite and the adjacent side so we use tan formula

$Tan (x) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} =\frac{AC}{AB} = \frac{7}{2}$

x = tan^-1 (7/2)

x = 74.05 degree

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to evaluate if thickness of a 10 gauge metal sheet is a requiered in the process that means 3.416 mm thick. So that should be our null hypothesis; μ₀ = 3.416 and based on sample data, we will formulate an alternative hypothesis taking into account the mean, and standard deviation obtained. We surely will have better information to take a decision
