Answer:

In engineering, construction, and technical fields

Step-by-step explanation:

The use of parallel lines has many wide applications

For example, the parallel lines are important in science in preventing parallax errors in measuring, say the meniscus of the water in a glass.

Another use is in construction. The use of the plumb line shows if the object being built is straight or not. The principle is that the force of the pull acts downwards. Another example is the spirit lever. This can be used by builders to check if the surface is even or not.

In engineering, the properties are important in building bridges and other high-tension structures.

Sheldon wants to feed his strawberry plants 2 more times and his tomato plants one more time he will use the Same amount of plan

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

3 7/12 kg

He doesn't have enough plant to feed strawberry 2 more times and tomato 1 more time

Step-by-step explanation:

On sunday , sheldon bought 4 1/2 kg of plant food. He uses 1 2/3 kg on his strawberry plants and used 1/4 kg for his tomato plants. b. Sheldon wants to feed his strawberry plants 2 more times and his tomato plants one more time. He will use the same amounts of plant food as before. How much plant food will be need? Does he have enough left to do so.

Total plant bought = 4 1/2 kg

Strawberry = 1 2/3 kg

Tomato = 1/4 kg

Strawberry + tomato

= 1 2/3 + 1/4

= 5/3 + 1/4

= 20+3/12

= 23/12 kg

Total remaining after Sunday

= Total - used

= 4 1/2 - 23/12

= 9/2 - 23/12

= 54-23/12

= 31/12

= 2 7/12 kg

Sheldon wants to feed his strawberry plants 2 more times and his tomato plants one more time.

Strawberry = 2 × 1 2/3

= 2 × 5/3

= 10/3 kg

Tomato = 1 × 1/4

= 1/4 kg

Total plant needed to feed strawberry two more times and tomato 1 more time

= 10/3 kg + 1/4 kg

= 40+3/12

= 43/12 kg

= 3 7/12 kg

He will need 3 7/12 kg of plant

He doesn't have enough plant to feed strawberry 2 more times and tomato 1 more time

A(-3,5) to B(8,1)

That makes a right triangle 8 - -3 = 11 in the x direction, 5 - 1 = 4 in the y direction.

d² = (8 - -3)² + (1 - 5)² = 11² + (-4)² = 121 + 25 = 146

d = √146 = 12.083045973594572

In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100. By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200. If the

natka813 [3]

Answer:

$P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential model for the population in t years after 2013 is given by:

$P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}$

In which P(0) is the population in 2013 and r is the growth rate.

In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100

This means that $P(0) = 5100$

$P(t) = 5100e^{rt}$

By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200.

2018 is 2018-2013 = 5 years after 2013.

So this means that $P(5) = 5200$ .

We use this to find r.

$P(t) = 5100e^{rt}$

$5200 = 5100e^{5r}$

$e^{5r} = \frac{52}{51}$

$\ln{e^{5r}} = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}$

$5r = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}$

$r = \frac{\ln{\frac{52}{51}}}{5}$

$r = 0.0039$

So the equation for the moose population is:

$P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}$

Bradley estimated the height of a tree at 2.5 meters. Carla estimated that tree's height at 8 feet.

vredina [299]

Answer: 4.1 feet : 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Bradley estimated the height of a tree at 2.5 meters. Carla estimated that tree's height at 8 feet.

The conversion ratio be used to compare Bradley's and Carla's estimates of the tree's height when measured in feet goes thus:

Since 1 feet = 0.305 meters

2.5 meters will be = 2.5/0.305 = 8.2 feet

Therefore the conversion ratio will be:.

= 8.2 : 8

Reducing to lowest term will be

= 4.1 feet : 4 feet.

= 4.1 : 4
