3 0

Answer:

w = 3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by

A = l*w

30 = 10 *w

Divide each side by 10

30/10 = 10w/10

3 = w

A basketball gymnasium is 25 meters high, 80 meters wide and 200 meters long. We want to connect two strings, one from each of t

Rudiy27

Answer:

a) the centre is at (12.5 m, 40 m , 100 m ) with respect to our position

b) the length of the strings S will be 216.85 m

c) the angle that is formed by the strings is 1.23 rad

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that we stand on one of the corners on the floor , so our coordinates are (0,0,0) , then the coordinates of the center of the gymnasium are found through

x center = (25 + 0)/2 = 12.5 m

y center = (80+ 0)/2 = 40 m

z center = (200+ 0)/2 = 100 m

then the centre is at (12.5 m, 40 m , 100 m ) with respect to our position

b) the length of the strings S will be the modulus of the vector that points from our position to the diagonally opposite corners

|S| = √(25²+80²+200²) = 216.85 m

c) the angle can be found through the dot product of the vectors that represent the strings S₁ and S₂

S₁ =(25,80,10)

S₂ =(-25,80,100)

then

S₁*S₂ = 25*(-25) +80*80 + 100*100 = 15775

but also

S₁*S₂ = |S₁||S₂| cos θ = |S|² * cos θ

S₁*S₂ = |S|² * cos θ

cos θ= S₁*S₂/|S|²

θ= cos ⁻¹ ( S₁*S₂/|S|² ) = cos ⁻¹ [15775/(25²+80²+200²)] = 1.23 rad

What is the radius of the following circle?

lara [203]

Answer:

The radius is: $2\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in center-radius form is:

$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$

Where the center is at the point (h, k) and the radius is "r".

So, given the equation of the circle:

$x^2+y^2=12$

You can identify that:

$r^2=12$

Then, solving for "r", you get that the radius of this circle is:

$r=\sqrt{12}\\\\r=2\sqrt{3}$

The population of a town is 6500 and is increasing at a rate of 4% each year. Create a function for this scenario. At this rate,

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

$P_4 = 7604.08$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the population increases at a rate of 4% per annum, then:

In year 1:

$P_1 = P_0 + 0.04P_0$

Where $P_0$ is the initial population and $P_n$ is the population in year n

In year 2

$P_2 = P_1 + 0.04P_1$

It can also be written as:

$P_2 = P_0 + 0.04P_0 + 0.04 (P_0 + 0.04P_0)$

Taking out common factor $P_0$

$P_2 = (1 + 0.04) (P_0) + 0.04P_0 (1 + 0.04)$

Taking out common factor (1 + 0.04)

$P_2 = (1 + 0.04) (P_0 + 0.04P_0)$

Taking out again common factor $P_0$

$P_2 = (1 + 0.04) (1 + 0.04) P_0$

Simplifying

$P_2 = P_0 (1 + 0.04) ^ 2$

$P_n = P_0 (1 + 0.04) ^ n$

This is the equation that represents the population for year n

Then, in 4 years, the population will be:

$P_4 = P_0 (1 + 0.04) ^ 4\\P_4 = 6500(1 + 0.04) ^ 4\\P_4 = 7604.08$
