The length of ladder used is 12.25 ft.

<h3>What is Pythagoras theorem?</h3>

Pythagorean theorem, the well-known geometric theorem that the sum of the squares on the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse .

The Pythagoras theorem which is also referred to as the Pythagorean theorem explains the relationship between the three sides of a right-angled triangle. According to the Pythagoras theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of a triangle.

example:

The hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is 16 units and one of the sides of the triangle is 8 units. Find the measure of the third side using the Pythagoras theorem formula.

Solution:

Given : Hypotenuse = 16 units

Let us consider the given side of a triangle as the perpendicular height = 8 units

On substituting the given dimensions to the Pythagoras theorem formula

Hypotenuse^2 = Base^2 + Height^2

16^2 = B^2 + 8^2

B^2 = 256 - 64

B = √192 = 13.856 units

Therefore, the measure of the third side of a triangle is 13.856 units.

given:

base= 2.5 ft,

perpendicular= 12 ft

Using Pythagoras theorem,

H² = B² + P²

H² = 2.5² + 12²

H² = 6.25+ 144

H= 12.25 ft

Over a period of 12 weeks, Carlos ran an average of 21 miles per week. How many kilometers is this? Round your answer to the nea

velikii [3]

Answer:

405.80

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know Carlos ran 21 miles per week, for 12 weeks....

That makes 21 mi/wk x 12 weeks = 252 miles.

Then we know each km is 0.621 mile.

So, we divide 252 miles by 0.621 mile/km to get= 405.80 km

Dividing miles by miles/km gives us the unit we want (km).

<u>There was a trap in this question,</u> because if instead of dividing the 252 miles by 0.621 you would have multiplied it, you would have gotten another answer listed... just not the right one. :-)

Determine the sample size needed to construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion when p = 0.65 and

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

n=170

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

$n$ random sample taken (variable of interest)

$\hat p=0.65$ estimated proportion.

$p$ true population

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 90% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.90=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=\pm 1.64$

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.06$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.65(1-0.65)}{(\frac{0.06}{1.64})^2}=169.968$

And rounded up we have that n=170

Renee is simplifying the expression (7) (StartFraction 13 over 29 EndFraction) (StartFraction 1 over 7 EndFraction). She recogni

dsp73

Answer:

The correct option is commutative property.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression that Renee is simplifying is:

$(7)\cdot(\frac{13}{29})\cdot(\frac{1}{7})$

It is provided that, Renee recognizes that 7 and $\frac{1}{7}$ are reciprocals, so she would like to find their product before she multiplies by $\frac{13}{29}$ .
