Using how tall it is over how wide
=>tall/wide
The model 15in/1.5in
The actual x/55ft

Convert everything into the same units so 55ft to inches
There are 12in in 1ft
55ft * 12in/1ft
The ft cross out leaving in
55*12in= 660 in

So
15in/1.5in = x/660in
Now solve for x my multiplying both side by 660in
660in *15in/1.5in=x
x= 6600in tall

Answer: 550

Step-by-step explanation:Solve the proportion:  15 in./1.5 in. =  h/55 ft. The value of h is 550 ft. The Washington Monument is about 550 ft tall.

Someone please help. Please explain how I should do it!
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if m and n are irrational number then the product of mn sometimes rational and sometime irrational

ex: √5 *√2=√10 irrational

ex: √8*√2=√16=4 rational

b-y=|x|+3

explain why |x|+3≥|x+3|

absolute value of any number is always positive

x           |x|+3          ≥            |x+3|

1              4              =               4             in this case equal

2             5                                5

-2             5             ≥                 1             in this case |x|+3≥|x+3|

in case of negative value of x then |x|+3>|x+3|

The height h of a projectile is a function of the time t it is in the air. the height in feet for t seconds is given by the func
alexgriva [62]

Domain means the values of independent variable(input) which will give defined output to the function.

Given:

The height h of a projectile is a function of the time t it is in the air. The height in feet for t seconds is given by the function

h(t)=-16t^2 + 96t

Solution:

To get defined output, the height h(t) need to be greater than or equal to zero. We need to set up an inequality and solve it to find the domain values.

To \; find \; domain:\\\\h(t) \geq0\\\\-16t^2+96t \geq  0\\Factoring \; -16t \; in \; the \; left \; side \; of \; the \; inequality\\\\-16t(t-6) \geq  0\\Step \; 1: Find \; Boundary \; Points \; by \; setting \; up \; above \; inequality \; to \; zero.\\\\t(t-6)=0\\Use \; zero \; factor \; property \; to \; solve\\\\t=0 \; (or) \; t = 6\\\\Step \; 2: \; List \; the \; possible  \; solution \; interval \; using \; boundary \; points\\(- \infty,0], \; [0, 6], \& [6, \infty)

Step \; 3:Pick \; test \; point \; from \; each \; interval \; to \; check \; whether \\\; makes \; the \; inequality \; TRUE \; or \; FALSE\\\\When \; t = -1\\-16(-1)(-1-6) \geq  0\\-112 \geq  0 \; FALSE\\(-\infty, 0] \; is \; not \; solution\\Also \; Logically \; time \; t \; cannot \; be \; negative\\\\When \; t = 1\\-16(1)(1-6) \geq  0\\80 \geq  0 \; TRUE\\ \; [0, 6] \; is \; a \; solution\\\\When \; t = 7\\-16(7)(7-6) \geq  0\\-112 \geq  0 \; FALSE\\ \; [6, -\infty) \; is \; not \; solution

Conclusion:

The domain of the function is the time in between 0 to 6 seconds

0 \leq  t \leq  6

The height will be positive in the above interval.

The proportion of the total area under a normal curve between two z-scores corresponds to the ______ of that range of scores.
omeli [17]

Answer:

For any normal distribution, the mean and the median will have the same value. For any normal distribution, the proportion corresponding to scores greater than z = +1.00 is exactly equal to the proportion corresponding to scores less than z = -1.00.
