Answer:

You have a right triangle.

a^2+b^2=c^2

4^2+b^2=256

16+b^2=256

b^2=256-16

b^2=240

b=sqrt240

b=15.49 ft. ans. for the height of the ladder up the wall.

Answer:15.5

Step-by-step explanation:4^2 + h^2 = 16^2

h^2 = 256 - 16 = 240 = 16*15

h = 4 square root 15

h = 15.5

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

(1) The correct option is (A).

(2) The probability that Aadi will get Tails is \frac{2}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that:

  • Eric throws a biased coin 10 times. He gets 3 tails.
  • Sue throw the same coin 50 times. She gets 20 tails.

The probability of tail in both cases is:

  • P(\text{Tail})=\frac{3}{10}
  • P(\text{Tail})=\frac{20}{50}=\frac{2}{5}

(1)

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

In this case we need to compute the proportion of tails.

Then according to the Central limit theorem, Sue's estimate is best because she throws it <em>n = </em>50 > 30 times.

Thus, the correct option is (A).

(2)

As explained in the first part that Sue's estimate is best for getting a tail, the probability that Aadi will get Tails when he tosses the coin once is:

P(\text{Tail})=\frac{20}{50}=\frac{2}{5}

Thus, the probability that Aadi will get Tails is \frac{2}{5}.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

P = 4w + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Jose is creating a map in the shape of a rectangle whose length is 4 inches longer than its width. Let w stand for the width of the map in inches. Write an equation gives the perimeter of the map in terms of w?</em>

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L +w)

L is the length of the rectangle

w is the width

If the length is 4 inches longer than its width, then;

l = w + 4

Substitute into the expression;

P = 2 (L+w)

P = 2(w+4+w)

P = 2 (2w+4)

P = 4w + 8

Hence the perimeter of the map in terms of w is P = 4w + 8
