2% of 35,000 is 700. 35,000+700=35,700. The population after the increase would be 35,700.

Just like the other answers, except I will be more specific. So basically, you need to add 2% of 35000 to 35000. So this is the equation you must solve:

35,000 + (2/100 x 35000) = 35000 + 700 = 35700

Mandy built a pyramid for her project on Egypt with a volume of 483

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer

We have,

Volume of pyramid = 4834 in³

Base area of the pyramid = ?

Assuming height of the pyramid = 20 in

We know that

Volume of pyramid = $\dfrac{hlw}{3}$

$4834=\dfrac{20\time lw}{3}$

l w = 725.1 in²

Hence, area of the base of the pyramid is equal to 725.1 in².

A door of a lecture hall is in a parabolic shape. The door is 56 inches across at the bottom of the door and parallel to the flo

Arada [10]

Answer:

The parabolic shape of the door is represented by $y - 32 = -\frac{2}{49}\cdot x^{2}$ . (See attachment included below). Head must 15.652 inches away from the edge of the door.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola is represented by the following mathematical expression:

$y - k = C \cdot (x-h)^{2}$

Where:

$h$ - Horizontal component of the vertix, measured in inches.

$k$ - Vertical component of the vertix, measured in inches.

$C$ - Parabola constant, dimensionless. (Where vertix is an absolute maximum when $C < 0$ or an absolute minimum when $C > 0$ )

For the design of the door, the parabola must have an absolute maximum and x-intercepts must exist. The following information is required after considering symmetry:

$V (x,y) = (0, 32)$ (Vertix)

$A (x, y) = (-28, 0)$ (x-Intercept)

$B (x,y) = (28. 0)$ (x-Intercept)

The following equation are constructed from the definition of a parabola:

$0-32 = C \cdot (28 - 0)^{2}$

$-32 = 784\cdot C$

$C = -\frac{2}{49}$

The parabolic shape of the door is represented by $y - 32 = -\frac{2}{49}\cdot x^{2}$ . Now, the representation of the equation is included below as attachment.

At x = 0 inches and y = 22 inches, the distance from the edge of the door that head must observed to avoid being hit is:

$y -32 = -\frac{2}{49} \cdot x^{2}$
