Isiah is 5.83 miles away from his starting point.

When you draw the the miles Isaiah walks, you will discover that you are forming a right angle triangle.

To measure the length from the starting point to the ending point. We must used the Pythagorean equation. Where in the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.

a² + b² = c²

a = 3 miles                        3² + 5² = c²
b = 5 miles                        9  + 25 = c²
c = hypotenuse.                    34    = c²
 
We must get the hypotenuse, since 34 is the square of the hypotenuse we must look for its square root.

c² = 34
c = √34
c = 5.83 miles

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

95%+15%=110% so, 110%-100% is 10% and this means that 10% of both, costs 1.20. now, 10 times 1.20 is 12 dollars and we know that the whole purchace costs 12 dollars. 15 percent of 12 dollars is 1.8 dollars or, one dollar and 80 cents

Suppose the following are the city driving gas mileages of a selection of sport utility vehicles (SUVs). 19, 20, 19, 20, 18, 21,
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the gas mileages is 317÷16=19.8125

317 is the sum total of all the figures and 16 is the number of figures in the distribution

Standard deviation is the square root of the variance and the variance is the mean of all squared deviations

The 16 squared deviations are

7.9102(×2) + 3.2852(×2) + 0.6602(×3) + 0.0352(×4) + 1.4102(×3) + 10.1602 + 17.5352 = 56.4382

56.4382÷16 = 3.5274

This is the Variance. The standard deviation is herefore √3.5274 =1.878 ~ 1.88 (to 2 decimal places)

(B) Chebyshev's inequality predicts that 75% of the selection will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean

2×1.88=3.76

19.8125-3.76 = 16.05

19.8125+3.76= 23.57

The gas mileages are between 16.05 and 23.57

(C) the actual % of SUV models of the sample that fall in the above range is (15/16 × 100) = 93.75%

(D) the empirical rule gives the more accurate prediction

You are enclosing a rectangular garden with 60 feet of ornamental fencing. the area of the garden is 200 square feet. what are t
Lilit [14]

The perimeter is equal to 60 feet and has the formula:

Perimeter = 2 l + 2 w

60 = 2 l + 2 w

 

The area is equal to 200 square feet and has the formula:

Area = l w

200 = l w

 

Rewriting area in terms of l:

l = 200 / w

 

Combining this with the perimeter formula:

60 = 2 (200 / w) + 2 w

60 = 400 / w + 2 w

Multiplying all by w:

60 w = 400 + 2 w^2

Dividing by 2 and rearranging:

w^2 – 30 w = - 200

Completing the square:

(w – 15)^2 = - 200 + (-15)^2

(w – 15)^2 = 25

w – 15 = ±5

w = 10, 20

 

Hence the dimensions of the garden is 10 feet by 20 feet

Help please I need as quick as possible!
Strike441 [17]

Answer: \sum^{24}_{n=1} (4n+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic series with a common difference of 4, so we can immediately eliminate the two left-hand options.

To determine which of the two options on the right is correct, we can determine the first term of each sum expanded out.

  • For the top right, the first term is 4(0)+5=5, which does not match the first term of the given sequence.
  • For the bottom right, the first term is 4(1)+5=9, which does match the first term of the given sequence.
