Answer:

Please see attached image for the sketch with the labels.

Length "x" of the ramp = 11.70 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the geometry to represent the ramp is a right angle triangle, for which we know one of its acute angles (20^o), and the size of the side opposite to it (4 ft). Our unknown is the hypotenuse "x" of this right angle triangle, which is the actual ramp length we need to find.

For this, we use the the "sin" function of an angle in the triangle, which is defined as the quotient between the side opposite to the angle, divided by the hypotenuse, and then solve for the unknown "x" in the equation:

sin(20^o)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\ sin(20^o)=\frac{4}{x} \\x=\frac{4}{sin(20^o)} \\x=11.695\,\,ft

Therefore the length of the ramp rounded to the nearest hundredth as requested is: 11.70 ft

Write the equation, in standard form, of a polynomial of the least degree with integral
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

f

(

x

)

=

3

x

3

−

5

x

2

−

47

x

−

15

Explanation:

If the zero is c, the factor is (x-c).

So for zeros of

−

3

,

−

1

3

,

5

, the factors are

(

x

+

3

)

(

x

+

1

3

)

(

x

−

5

)

Let's take a look at the factor

(

x

+

1

3

)

. Using the factor in this form will not result in integer coefficients because

1

3

is not an integer.

Move the

3

in front of the x and leave the

1

in place:

(

3

x

+

1

)

.

When set equal to zero and solved, both

(

x

+

1

3

)

=

0

and

(

3

x

+

1

)

=

0

result in

x

=

−

1

3

.

f

(

x

)

=

(

x

+

3

)

(

3

x

+

1

)

(

x

−

5

)

Multiply the first two factors.

f

(

x

)

=

(

3

x

2

+

10

x

+

3

)

(

x

−

5

)

Multiply/distribute again.

f

=

+

x

+

x

−

Combine like terms.

On a recent quiz, the class mean was 72 with a standard deviation of 4.2. Calculate the z-score (to 2 decimal places) for a pers
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The Z score of the person is -3.09.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard normal deviate (Z) for a normal distribution is given by

Z=\frac{X-\bar{X}}{\sigma }

where,

X = the value of observation

\bar{X} is mean of the observations and

σ = standard deviation of the score

Applying values we get

Z=\frac{59-72}{4.2}=-3.09

(08.01) The graph shows two lines, Q and S. A coordinate plane is shown with two lines graphed. Line Q has a slope of one half a
ki77a [65]

Answer:

There are no solutions for the pair of equations.

The lines are parallel to each other

Step-by-step explanation:

Line Q has a slope of 1/2 and crosses the y axis at 3.

This mean at x=0, y=3

Using the equation of a straight line expression to find the slope

y=mx +c  where m is slope and c in the y intercept you can write the equation for Line Q as;

y=mx+c\\\\y=\frac{1}{2} x+c\\\\3=\frac{1}{2} *0+c\\\\3=c\\\\y=\frac{1}{2} x+3

For the Line S , slope is 1/2  and the line crosses the y axis at -2 , which represents the c in the equation y=mx +c

The equation for S will be

y=\frac{1}{2} x-2

Using the graphing tool to plot the two equations for line  Q and line S we notice that the lines are parallel .For solutions, they have to intersect.
