A water canal has a rectangular cross section 3 meters wide and 2 meters deep. How much water is contained in a 30-meter length

of the canal? How much water does it hold after 60% of the water has evaporated

Basically you are finding the volume of a rectangular prism of 3 by 2 meters cross section and 30 meters length. Volume = (3 m)(2 m)(30 m) = 180 cubic meters.

If 60% of the water has evaporated, 40% is left. Find 40% of 180 cubic meters to answer the 2nd part of this question.

This is a right triangle. To find the length of the hypotenuse a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

21^2 + 18^2 = c^2

441 + 324 = c^2

765 = c^2

Which of the following is not equal to sin⁡(-230°)?

xenn [34]

From trigonometry we know that:

if $sin(\theta)=sin(\alpha)$

then, $\theta=n\pi+(-1)^n\alpha$ (where $n$ is an integer)

This can be rewritten in degrees as:

$\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n\alpha$ .............(Equation 1)

Now, in our case, $\alpha=-230^{\circ}$

Therefore, (Equation 1) can be written as:

$\theta=n(180^{\circ})+(-1)^n(-230^{\circ})$ ..........(Equation 2)

Now, to find the correct options all that we have to do is replace n by relevant integers and find the values of $\theta$ that match.

For n=2, (Equation 2) gives us: $\theta=2\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^2(-230^{\circ})=360^{\circ}-230^{\circ}=130^{\circ}$ .

Thus, $sin(230^{\circ})=sin(130^{\circ})$

Now, we know that: $-sin(-50^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})$

Let n=-1, then:

$\theta=(-1)\times 180^{\circ}+(-1)^{-1}(-230^{\circ})=-180^{\circ}+230^{\circ}=50^{\circ}$

Thus, $sin(-230^{\circ})=-sin(-50^{\circ})$

Likewise, $sin(-230^{\circ})=sin(50^{\circ})$

Only the last option $sin(-50^{\circ})$ will never match $sin(-230^{\circ})$ because no integral value of $n$ will ever give $\theta=-50^{\circ}$

Thus the last option is the correct option.

There are about 320 million people living in the United States. Of these, how many would you predict wear corrective lenses

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

240 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Google said that three out of four people wear corrective lenses which is also 75%. So whats 75% out of 320 million? <u>Half of 320 million is 160 million</u>. <u>Half of 160 million is 80 million, 160 million plus 80 million is </u><u>240 million.</u>

Answer:

$[tex]4608\sqrt{3}$ [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $\sqrt{96} *\sqrt{6}* 2*\sqrt{6}*4 *\sqrt{6} *4*\sqrt{3}$

2. $\sqrt{2^{5} *3} \sqrt{6} *2\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{3}$ <em>factoring 96</em>

<em>since $\sqrt{2^{5}*3 } = \sqrt{2^{5} } \sqrt{3}$ </em>

3. $\sqrt{2^{5} } \sqrt{3}\sqrt{6} *2\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{3}$

<em>using exponent rule - $(a^{b}) ^{c} = a^{bc}$ </em>

<em> $\sqrt{2^{5} } = 2^{5/2}$ </em>

4. $2^{5/2}\sqrt{3}\sqrt{2*3} *2\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{3}$
