A ship anchored in a port has a ladder which hangs over the side. The length of the ladder is 200cm, the distance between each r

ung in 20cm and the bottom rung touches the water. The tide rises at a rate of 10cm an hour. When will the water reach the fifth rung

Answer:

The answer to your question is 8 h

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length of the ladder = 200 cm

distance between each rung = 20 cm

rate = 10 cm/h

fifth rung = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the total distance the tide must rise

distance = 20 cm x 4

              = 80 cm              because the first rung touches the water

2.- Calculate the time

rate = distance / time

-Solve for time

time = distance / rate

-Substitution

time = 80 cm / 10cm/h

-result

time = 8 h

Someone help me please
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Important notes:

3 sides 1 angle - COSINE RULE

2 sides 2 angle - SINE RULE

since, the question wants to find the length of BC. In the end we will have 3 sides and 1 angle and use cosine rule

formula of cosine rule:

a² = b² + c² - 2bc Cos A° (to find the length)

Cos A° = b² + c² - a² / 2bc ( to find the angle, if there is given three sides and have to find the angle)

So just substitute,

a² = 13² + 15² - 2(13)(15) Cos 95°

a = 20.6 or 21

A university knows from historical data that 25% of students in an introductory statistics class withdraw before completing the
Vikki [24]

Answer:

13.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use binomial probability:

P = nCr p^r q^(n-r)

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1-p).

Here, n = 16, r = 2, p = 0.25, and q = 0.75.

P = ₁₆C₂ (0.25)² (0.75)¹⁶⁻²

P = 120 (0.25)² (0.75)¹⁴

P = 0.134

There is a 13.4% probability that exactly 2 students will withdraw.

Solve the inequality below. Use the drop-down menus to describe the solution and its greah
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is x ≤ -4. A graph of the solution should have a vertical line passing through x = -4 and be shaded to the left of x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x + 13 ≥ 41

Subtract 13 from both sides

-7x ≥ 28

Dividing both sides by the -7 changes the inequality sign and we have

x ≤ -4

Hence, the solution of the inequality is x ≤ -4 and the graph of the solution should have a vertical line passing through x = -4 and it should be shaded to the left of x = -4 indicating that only numbers less than or equal to -4 are possible solutions of the inequality.

Hope this Helps!!!
