Answer:

21 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool has dimension 15 feet by 17 feet, which is in the form of a rectangle.

The area of the pool = length × width

                                   =  17 × 15

                                   = 255 square feet

Area of the pool and cement walkway = 483 square feet

Area of walkway = area of pool and walkway - Area of pool

                            = 483 - 255

                            = 228 square feet

Let's assume that the cement walkway has equal thickness across its perimeter, so that;

the dimension of the pool and the cement walkway = 23 feet × 21 feet

The width of the cement walkway is 21 feet.

Calculate the current in an Inductor if the energy stored is 240J and the Inductance is 24H.​
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Current, I = 4.47 Amperes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Inductance = 24H

Energy stored, Eind = 240J

To find the current;

The energy stored in an inductor is given by the formula;

Eind = ½LI²

240 = ½*24*I²

Cross-multiplying, we have;

480 = 24I²

I² = 480/24

I² = 20

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

Current, I = 4.47 Amp

You intend to estimate a population mean with a confidence interval. You believe the population to have a normal distribution. Y
Luda [366]

Answer:

T = 4.541

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't have the standard deviation for the population, so we use the t-distribution.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 4 - 1 = 3

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 3 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99. So we have T = 4.541
