1/8  5/6  3/8
Make sure that in order to compare and rank them from least to greatest, you ned to first see that the denominator is the same.

1/8=3/24  5/6=20/24  3/8=9/24
1/8<3/8<5/6

Therefore, 5/6 is the greatest and also the farthest that Carlos ran.

Chee is flying a kite, holding her hands a distance of 3.25 feet above the ground and
Mademuasel [1]

The height of the kite above the ground is 58.68 ft

Let x be the height of the kite above Chee's hand.

The height of the kite above Chee's hand, the string and the horizontal distance between Chee and the kite form a right angled triangle with hypotenuse side, the length of the string and opposite side the height of the kite above Chee's hand.

Since we have the angle of elevation from her hand to the kite is 29°, and the length of the string is 100 ft.

From trigonometric ratios, we have

tan29° = x/100

So, x = 100tan29°

x = 100 × 0.5543

x = 55.43 ft.

Since Chee's hand is y = 3.25 ft above the ground, the height of the kite above the ground, L = x + y

= 55.43 ft + 3.25 ft

= 58.68 ft to the nearest hundredth of a foot

So, the height of the kite above the ground is 58.68 ft

The common ratio of a geometric series is 1/4 and the sum of the first 4 terms is 170.
Illusion [34]

Answer: the first term of the series is 128

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence is expressed as

Sn = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)

Where

n represents the number of term in the sequence.

a represents the first term in the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

From the information given,

r = 1/4 = 0.25

n = 4

S4 = 170

Therefore, the expression for the sum of the 4 terms, S4 is

170 = a(1 - 0.25^4)/(1 - 0.25)

170 = a(1 - 0.00390625)/(1 - 0.25)

170 = a(0.99609375)/(0.75)

170 = 1.328125a

a = 170/1.328125

a = 128

Please urgently please❤️ Please help

Answer:

6. E

7. D

8. 5,-8,34

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Parallel to the y-axis and passes through the point (3,5)

For it to be parallel to the y-axis, what this means is that it has an x-intercept and no y intercept.

So what this means is that x = 3 is our line so E is correct

B. Perpendicular to the y-axis means it is parallel to the x-axis

It means is has no x intercept and thus its x value at any point in time is zero

So the equation is y = -5

or simply y + 5 = 0 which means D is correct

C. It is parallel to the line 5x -8y + 12 = 0

Thus: 8y = 5x + 12

dividing both sides by 8

y = 5x/8 + 12/8

y = 5x/8 + 3/2

y = 5x/8 + 1.5

Comparing this with the general equation of a straight line ;

y = mx + c

where m is that slope, this means that 5/8 is the slope of the line

Mathematically if two lines are parallel, they have equal slopes.

So we can say the slope of the other line too is 5/8

Now to find the equation of the other line, we can use the point-slope method

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where (x1,y1) in this case is (-2,3)

So we have;

y-3 = m(x-(-2))

y-3 = 5/8 (x + 2)

8(y-3) = 5(x + 2)

8y -24 = 5x + 10

5x + 10 + 24 -8y = 0

5x -8y + 34 = 0

So A, B, C = 5, -8, 34

Suppose a population has a mean of 7 for some characteristic of interest and a standard deviation of 9.6. A sample is drawn from
valkas [14]

Answer:  A. 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size : n= 64

Standard deviation: \sigma=9.6

The formula to find the standard error of mean is given by :-

S.E.=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ S.E.=\dfrac{9.6}{\sqrt{64}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ S.E.=\dfrac{9.6}{8}=1.2

Therefore, the standard error of the​ mean= 1.2

Hence, A is the right option.

The circle shown is centered at the origin and contains the point (-4, -2). What is the length of the diameter of the circle? Ro
trasher [3.6K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for circle centered at origin:

x² + y² = r².

Therefore r² = (-4)² + (-2)² = 20, r = √20.

Hence d = 2r = 2√20 = 8.94 (2d.p.)
