You will need to use Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2
the a and b values will be 12 and 5 feet. So just plug them in and solve for c.
12^2 + 5^2 = c^2
144 + 25 = c^2
169 = c^2 square root both sides
13 = c
so the ladder has a length of 13 feet.

A city planner wants to estimate the average monthly residential water usage in the city. He selected a random sample of 100 hou
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the average monthly residential water usage for all households in this city is between 4401.3 gallons and 4598.7 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.645*\frac{600}{\sqrt{100}} = 98.7

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 4500 - 98.7 = 4401.3 gallons

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 4500 + 98.7 = 4598.7 gallons

The 90% confidence interval for the average monthly residential water usage for all households in this city is between 4401.3 gallons and 4598.7 gallons.

An animal shelter spends $4.50 per day to care for each bird and $8.50 per day to care for each cat. Dominic noticed that the sh
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4.5b + 8.5c = 175

b + c = 22.......b = 22 - c

4.5(22 - c) + 8.5c = 175

99 - 4.5c + 8.5c = 175

-4.5c + 8.5c = 175 - 99

4c = 76

c = 76/4

c = 19......there are 19 cats

b + c = 22

b + 19 = 22

b = 22 - 19

b = 3 <==== there are 3 birds
