Answer:
Solution 2. A right triangle is formed with the bottom of the flagpole, the snapped part, and the ground. One leg is of length $1 ...
Missing: picture way barely
Step-by-step explanation:
A flagpole is originally $5$ meters tall. A hurricane snaps the flagpole at a point $x$ meters above the ground so that the upper part, still attached to the stump, touches the ground $1$ meter away from the base. What is $x$?
$\text{(A) } 2.0 \qquad \text{(B) } 2.1 \qquad \text{(C) } 2.2 \qquad \text{(D) } 2.4 \qquad \text{(E) } 2.5$
Solution 1
The broken flagpole forms a right triangle with legs $1$ and $x$, and hypotenuse $5-x$. The Pythagorean theorem now states that $1^2 + x^2 = (5-x)^2$, hence $10x = 24$, and $x=\boxed{2.4}$.
(Note that the resulting triangle is the well-known $5-12-13$ right triangle, scaled by $1/5$.)
Solution 2
A right triangle is formed with the bottom of the flagpole, the snapped part, and the g
If we multiply the inequality n<4 by 3 we get the following:
Now, on the next inequality we have the following:
By transitive property, we have:
therefore, the solution set for m is m<8
The volume of a prism is area of the base times height.
This is a triangular prism. The base is a triangle.
The volume is area of the base times height, and the base is a triangle.
Find the area of the triangle and multiply by the height of the prism.
V = volume of the prism
A = area of the base
H = height of the prism
h = height of the triangle
b = base of the triangle
V = AH
V = (1/2)bhH
V = (1/2) * 9 ft * 7 ft * 15 ft
V = 472.5 ft^3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is - C. 11.45 ounces to 11.75 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the empirical rule of the distribution for 68% falls under the normal curve falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
That is:
μ±δ
From the given information, the mean is
μ = 11.60
and the standard deviation is
δ = 0.15
We substitute the given parameters to obtain;
11.60±0.15
11.75 and 11.45
This means the lower limit is
11.45
and the upper limit is
11.75
