A horse corral is situated on a triangular plot of land. Two sides of the plot are 150 feet long and they meet at an angle of 55

°. A fence is to be placed along the perimeter of the corral. How much fencing material is needed?
a. 125 ft
b. 138.5 ft
c. 288.5 ft
d. 438.5 ft

Answer : d. 438.5 ft

The diagram for the given statement is attached below.

Two sides AB and AC are equal so the angle B = angle C

WE know sum of three sides of a triangle = 180

angle A + angle B + angle C = 180

55 + B + C = 180

B + C = 180 -55 = 125

B and C are equal so we divide 125 by 2

angle B = 62.5 and angle C = 62.5

Now we apply sin law

\frac{sin A}{a} = \frac{sin B}{b}

\frac{sin 55}{a} = \frac{sin 62.5}{150}

150 * sin(55) = sin(62.5) * a

122.8728066 = sin(62.5) * a

a = \frac{ 122.8728066}{sin(62.5)}

a= 138.52 feet

To find perimeter we add all the sides

150 + 150 + 138.52 = 438.52 feet

(b) how many measurements must be averaged to get a margin of error of ±0.0001 with 98% confidence? (round your answer up to the
goblinko [34]
Given that the scale readings of the laboratory scale is normally distributed with an unknown mean and a standard deviation of 0.0002 grams.

Part A:

If the weight is weighted 5 times and the mean weight is 10.0023 grams, the 98% confidence interval for μ, the true mean of the scale readings is given by:

98\% \ C. \ I.=\bar{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\left(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\right) \\  \\ =10.0023\pm2.33\left(\frac{0.0002}{\sqrt{5}}\right) \\  \\ =10.0023\pm2.33(0.000089) \\  \\ =10.0023\pm0.00021 \\  \\ =(10.0023-0.00021, \ 10.0023+0.00021) \\  \\ =(10.0021, \ 10.0025)

Thus, we are 98% confidence that the true mean of the scale readings is between 10.0021 and 10.0025.



Part B:

To get a margin of error of +/- 0.0001 with a 98% confidence, then

\pm z_{\alpha/2}\left(\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\right)=\pm0.0001 \\ \\ \Rightarrow2.33\left(\frac{0.0002}{\sqrt{n}}\right)=0.0001 \\  \\ \Rightarrow\left(\frac{0.0002}{\sqrt{n}}\right)= \frac{0.0001}{2.33} =0.0000429 \\  \\ \Rightarrow\sqrt{n}= \frac{0.0002}{0.0000429} =4.66 \\  \\ \Rightarrow n=4.66^2=21.7156\approx22

Therefore, the number of <span>measurements that must be averaged to get a margin of error of ±0.0001 with 98% confidence is 22.</span>

Britney is solving a quadratic equation. Her first
Liula [17]

Britney used commutative property of addition and distributive property of multiplication  over addition to get to step

The answer is II and IV ⇒ answer 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic equation is:

3x² - 8 - 10x = 3(2x + 3)

Britney's step is:

3x² - 10 x - 8 = 6x + 9

Lets explain the meaning of:

1. Commutative property of addition is: you can add a and b or b and a

   both give the same answer

2. Distributive property of multiplication over addition is: when the

   number a is multiplied by the sum of two numbers (b + c), the

   first number a can be distributed to both b and c and multiplied

   by each of them separately, then adding the two products ab and

   ac together for the same result as multiplying the first number a by

   the sum (b + c) ⇒ a(b + c) = ab + ac

3. Addition property of equality is: the property that states if you

   add the same number to both sides of an equation, the sides

   remain equal

4. Multiplication property of equality is: The property that states if

   you multiply both sides of an equation by the same number, the

   sides remain equal

Now let us explain Britney's step

∵ She change the places of the terms - 10x and - 8

- She arranges the terms of the left hand side from greatest power

  of x to the numerical term

∴ She used the commutative property of addition

∵ She multiplied 3 by 2x and multiplied 3 by 3

- She multiplied the number out side the bracket by each of the

  two terms in the bracket

∴ She used the distributive property of multiplication over addition

Britney used commutative property of addition and distributive property of multiplication  over addition to get to step

The answer is number 4) II and IV

Find the common difference of the arithmetic sequence<br> -17, -15, -13, ...
juin [17]

Answer:

term 1 - term 2 = sequence

so

-17-(-15) = -2

and if you minus the rest by -2 it will give you the next term

-15-(-2) = -13

-13-(-2) = -11
