If construction costs are $160,000 per kilometer, find the cost of building the new road in the figure

Mathematics

MAVERICK [17]3 years ago

Answer:

$4,160,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the length of the new road in km using Pythagorean Theorem.

According to Pythagorean Theorem:

c² = a² + b²,

Where, c is the longest leg, which is the hypotenuse, a and b are the 2 other legs of the ∆.

Since we are calculating the lenght in km, convert each lenght of the two legs of the ∆ into km.

1 km = 1,000 m

10,000 m = 10 km

24,000 m = 24 km

c² = 24² + 10²

c² = 576 + 100

c² = 676

c = √676

c = 26 km

Lenght of the new road = 26 km

If cost of construction is $160,000 per kilometer, therefore, cost of constructing 26 km road = 160,000*26 = $4,160,000

If k = √31 and m = √26, which graph most closely represent the locations of K and M on a number line? The options are in the pic
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

First option

Step-by-step explanation:

√31 = 5.56....

√26 = 5.09....

So m is less than k but greater than 5.

k is greater than k but less than 6.

So the first option is more logical

In the probability distribution to the​ right, the random variable X represents the number of marriages an individual aged 15 ye
kodGreya [7K]

The table of the probability is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

μ = 0.919

The interpretation of this is that;on the average, an individual aged 15 years or older has been involved in 0.919 marriages.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value which is also called mean value is denoted by the symbol μ. It is defined as the sum of the product of each possibility x with it's probability P(x) as the formula;

μ = Σx.P(x) = (0 × 0.272) + (1 × 0.575) + (2 × 0.121) + (3 × 0.027) + (4 × 0.004) + (5 × 0.001)

μ = 0.919

Thus, the interpretation of this is that;on the average, an individual aged 15 years or older has been involved in 0.919 marriages.

Consider the following system of equations.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

C. When the equations -10x + 5y = -60 and -3x − 5y = -5 are added together, a third linear equation, -13x = -65, is formed, and it shares a common solution with the original equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-y=12

-3x-5y=-5

multiply the first equation by -5

-10x +5y = -60

add the 2 equations together

-3x-5y=-5

-10x +5y = -60

-------------------------

-13x = -65

We use the addition property of equality which says adding the same thing to both sides, doesn't change the equation, so we will get the same answer as the original equation
