Answer:

l=48, w=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pool be w feet, then the length will be:

l = 2w + 8

The area of the pool is 960 square feet.

This means that:

w(2w + 8) = 960

Expand and rewrite in standard form to get:

2 {w}^{2}  + 8w - 960 = 0

{w}^{2}  + 4w  - 480 = 0

{w}^{2}  + 24w   - 20w- 480 = 0

{w}(w+ 24) - 20(w + 24) = 0

Factor to get:

(w+ 24)(w  - 20) = 0

w =  - 24 \: or \: w   =  20

We discard the negative value because magnitude is positive.

This means

l = 2 \times 20 + 8 = 48

Find the exact value of csc(-1860).
Alex787 [66]
Now, there are 360° in a circle, how many times does 360° go into 1860°?

well, let's check that,   \bf \cfrac{1860}{360}\implies \cfrac{31}{6}\implies 5\frac{1}{6}\implies 5+\frac{1}{6}

now, this is a negative angle, so it's going clockwise, like a clock moves, so it goes around the circle clockwise 5 times fully, and then it goes 1/6 extra.

well, we know 360° is in a circle, how many degrees in 1/6 of 360°?  well, is just 360/6 or their product, and that's just 60°.

so -1860, is an angle that goes clockwise, negative, 5 times fully, then goes an extra 60° passed.

5 times fully will land you back at the 0 location, if you move further down 60° clockwise, that'll land you on the IV quadrant, with an angle of -60°.

therefore, the csc(-1860°) is the same as the angle of csc(-60°), which is the same as the csc(360° - 60°) or csc(300°).

\bf csc(300^o)\implies \cfrac{1}{sin(300^o)}\implies \cfrac{1}{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\implies -\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}

Express your answer in scientific notation. 4.9\cdot 10^{5} - 5.8 \cdot 10^{4} =4.9⋅10 5 −5.8⋅10 4 =4, point, 9, dot, 10, start
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

4.32*10^{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 4.9*10^{5}-5.8*10^{4}, to solve the expression, we need to write both scientific notation to the same power of 10.

5.8*10^{4} is \ expressed\  as \ 0.58*10^{5}

The expression above becomes 4.9*10^{5}-0.58*10^{5}. On taking the difference;

4.9*10^{5}-0.58*10^{5}\\= (4.9-0.58)*10^{5} \\= 4.32*10^{5}

The final expression gives the right answer

Math scores on the SAT exam are normally distributed with a mean of 514 and a standard deviation of 118. If a recent test-taker
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Probability that the student scored between 455 and 573 on the exam is 0.38292.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Math scores on the SAT exam are normally distributed with a mean of 514 and a standard deviation of 118.

<u><em>Let X = Math scores on the SAT exam</em></u>

So, X ~ Normal(\mu=514,\sigma^{2} =118^{2})

The z score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

                              Z  =  \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~  N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean score = 514

           \sigma = standard deviation = 118

Now, the probability that the student scored between 455 and 573 on the exam is given by = P(455 < X < 573)

       P(455 < X < 573) = P(X < 573) - P(X \leq 455)

       P(X < 573) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{573-514}{118} ) = P(Z < 0.50) = 0.69146

       P(X \leq 2.9) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{455-514}{118} ) = P(Z \leq -0.50) = 1 - P(Z < 0.50)

                                                         = 1 - 0.69146 = 0.30854

<em>The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.50 in the z table which has an area of 0.69146.</em>

Therefore, P(455 < X < 573) = 0.69146 - 0.30854 = <u>0.38292</u>

Hence, probability that the student scored between 455 and 573 on the exam is 0.38292.
