Water level in a well was 20m below ground level. During rainy season, rainwater collected in different water tanks was drained

into the well and the water level rise 5 m above the previous level. The wall of the well is 1m 20cm high and a pulley affixed at a height of 80 cm. Raghu wants to draw water from the well. Find the minimum length of the rope that he can use.

Answer:

17 m

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the figure,  A_0-B_0 is the ground level, A_1-B_1 is the old level of water which was at 20 m below ground level, A_2-B_2 is the new level of water which is 5m above of old level. The height of wall of the well, 1.20 m, and the the pelly at 80 cm =0.80 m, has been shown too.

The minimum length of the rope is equal to the distance between the pully and the new water level, indicated by the length L_0 in the figure.

So, L_0= 20-5+1.20+0.80= 17m

Hence, Raghu must use a rope having the minimum length 17 m to draw water from the well.

You are dealth one card from a 52-card deck. find the probability that you are dealt a two or a black card
grigory [225]
The probability of getting a 2 or a getting a black card, find individual probabilities; 

A standard deck has 52 cards. 

There are 4 2's in a normal deck; probability of getting it is 4/25 

The probability of getting a black card is; 26/52 since half the deck is red and black. 

Now add up the probabilities since it says "or" 

(4/52)+(26/52)=30/52 probability of the card that you were dealt being a two or a black card. 

Hope I helped :)

Write (5,0) with a slope of 2 in slope-intercept form
tia_tia [17]
Y = mx + c
y = 2x + c
When x = 5 and y = 0,
0 = 2(5) + c
c = -10

y = 2x - 10
