A small family home in Tucson, Arizona has a rooftop area of 1967 square feet, and it is possible to capture rain falling on abo

ut 61.0% of the roof. A typical annual rainfall is about 14.0 inches. If the family wanted to install a tank to capture the rain for an entire year, without using any of it, what would be the required volume of the tank in m3 and in gallons

Answer:

Required of volume of tank = 39.62 m3 or 10471.18   gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Total volume of water collected = Annual Rainfall * Useful Area

Total volume of water collected = 1199.87 * 1.1667

Total volume of water collected = 1399.89 ft3

---1 ft3 = 7.48 gallons

Hence, total volume of water collected in gallons = 1399.89 * 7.48 = 10471.178  gallons

----1 ft3 = 1/35.315 m3 = 0.0283 m3  

Therefore total volume of water collected in m3 = 1399.89 * 0.0283 = 39.6169 m3

Workings

Useful area = 61% of 1967

Useful area = 0.61 * 1967

Useful area = 1199.87 sq/ft.

Annual rainfall = 14 inch = 14/12 month

Annual rainfall = 1.1667 ft.

A system for tracking ships indicated that a ship lies on a hyperbolic path described by 5x2 - y2 = 20. the process is repeated
malfutka [58]
Answer:
The ship is located at (3,5)

Explanation:
In the first test, the equation of the position was:
5x² - y² = 20 ...........> equation I
In the second test, the equation of the position was:
y² - 2x² = 7 ..............> equation II
This equation can be rewritten as:
y² = 2x² + 7 ............> equation III

Since the ship did not move in the duration between the two tests, therefore, the position of the ship is the same in the two tests which means that:
equation I = equation II

To get the position of the ship, we will simply need to solve equation I and equation II simultaneously and get their solution.

Substitute with equation III in equation I to solve for x as follows:
5x²-y² = 20
5x² - (2x²+7) = 20
5x² - 2y² - 7 = 20
3x² = 27
x² = 9
x = <span>± </span>√9

We are given that the ship lies in the first quadrant. This means that both its x and y coordinates are positive. This means that:
x = √9 = 3

Substitute with x in equation III to get y as follows:
y² = 2x² + 7
y² = 2(3)² + 7
y = 18 + 7
y = 25
y = +√25
y = 5

Based on the above, the position of the ship is (3,5).

Hope this helps :)

Gabriel invested $900 in an account paying an interest rate of 3 1/4 % compounded daily. Daniel invested $900 in an account payi
Helen [10]

Answer:

$40

Step-by-step explanation:

The earnings of Gabriel can be calculated with the formula:

P = Po * (1 + r/n)^(nt)

Where P = 900, r = 0.0325, n = 365 and t = 19

So we have:

P = 900 * (1 + 0.0325/365)^(365*19) = $1,668.81

The earnings of Daniel can be calculated with the formula:

P = Po * e^(rt)

Where Po = 900, r = 0.03375 and t = 19

So we have:

P = 900 * e^(0.03375*19) = $1,708.97

So the amount that Daniel will have more than Gabriel is:

1708.97 - 1668.81 = $40.16

Rounding to nearest dollar, the difference is $40

The measure of the unknown angles in the kite are as follows;

  • x = 66 degrees
  • y = 158 degrees

<h3>How to find the measure of a kite?</h3>

A kite has two pairs of adjacent equal sides.

In other words, a kite is a quadrilateral that has 2 pairs of equal-length sides and these sides are adjacent to each other.

One pair of opposite angles is equal. Diagonals are perpendicular to each other.

A kite has four interior angles and the sum of these interior angles is 360°

Therefore, the measures of the

x = 66 degrees.

Let's find y.

y = 360 - 70 - 66 - 66

y = 158 degrees.

Math please help 10 points!
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

average= \frac{sum of scores}{number of tests}

80= \frac{79+81+77+x}{4}

80 x 4 = 79+81+77+x

320=237  + x

320-237 = x

83=x

so Marianne must score 83 points or higher on her last test
