Answer:

55.96 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = Speed X time

Car first moved east for 1 hr , distance = 40 x 1 = 40 miles

Car then moved north-east for 30 min, distance = 40 x 0.5 = 20 miles

From trigonometry,

sin 45 = \frac{y}{20} ; y = 20 sin 45 ; y= 14.14 miles

cos 45 = \frac{x}{20} ; x = 20 cos 45 ; x = 14.14 miles

using Pythagoras theorem;

z^{2} = y^{2} + (40+x)^{2}

    = 14.14^{2} + (40+14.14)^{2}

     = 3131.08

z^{2} = \sqrt{3131.08}

z = 55.96 miles

Two sections of a class took the same quiz. Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: A. 85.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Two sections of a class took the same quiz.

Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students who had a mean score of 90.

We know that  , \text{Mean}=\dfrac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{No. of observations}}

Then , for section A :

\text{Mean score }=\dfrac{\text{Sum of scores in sec A}}{\text{No. of students}}

\Rightarrow\ 80=\dfrac{\text{Sum of scores in sec A}}{15}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Sum of scores in sec A}=80\times15=1200

Similarly in Section B, \text{Sum of scores in sec B}=90\times20=1800

Total scores = Sum of scores in sec A+Sum of scores in sec B

=1200+1800=3000

Total students = Students in sec A +Students in sec B

=15+20=35

Now , the mean score for all of the students on the quiz =\dfrac{\text{Total score}}{\text{Total students}}

=\dfrac{3000}{35}=85.7142857143\approx85.7

Hence, the approximate mean score for all of the students on the quiz = 85.7

Thus , the correct answer is option A. 85.7.

The product of a binomial and trinomial is x^3+3x^2-x+2x^2+6x-2 which expression is equivalent to this product after it has been
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: First option.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the product obtained by multiplying a binomial and a trinomial is:

x^3+3x^2-x+2x^2+6x-2

Then, in order to simplify this product, it is necessary to add the like terms.

Therefore, the expression that is equivalent to this product after it has been fully simplified is:

 =x^3+(3x^2+2x^2)+(6x-x)-2\\\\=x^3+5x^2+5x-2

You can  observe that this matches with the first option.

A box of cereal has a volume of 144 inches squared. the height of the cereal box is 12 inches, and the depth is 2 inches. what i
Nutka1998 [239]

The value of the given cone with a volume of 144 has a width is 6 inches.

We have given that,

A box of cereal has a volume of 144 inches squared.

The height of the cereal box is 12 inches, and the depth is 2 inches.

The volume of cone = 144 inches squared.

height=12 inches

depth=2inches

<h3>What is the formula of the cube?</h3>

Area of a cube = V = L * W * H

L-length

W-width

H-height

We have to determine the width cereal box.

Plug the given values in the formula

V = L * W * H

144=2×12×width

Width=144/24

Width=6inches

Therefore the value of the width is 6 inches.
