Answer:
h
Step-by-step explanation:
multiplication and inference
It would take her 10 hours. If it is double the time for one person to complete the task versus two, you can guess that the other person takes the same amount of time
First you need to find the area of the circle, which is πr^2
With a radius of 8 inches, the area of the circle will be π*8^2 or 64π.
Next you want to find the area of the 120 degree section of that circle.
120 degrees is 1/3 of a circle, so all you have to do next is multiply the are of the circle by 1/3 (because 360/120= 1/3).
(1/3)(64π) --> All you really have to do here is multiply 64 by 1/3 or divide it by 3 (because to divide by a number is the same a multiplying by it's reciprocal) so you get (64/3)(π).
64/3 is 21 and 1/3 or 21.333..., so however you choose to write it, I will leave the answer as (64/3)π squared inches.
Answer:
8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
First, draw a picture. The pole is 22 feet tall. Katherine is 5.5 feet tall. She is 24 feet from the pole. The light from the top of the pole to the tip of her shadow forms two similar right triangles. The length of her shadow is x.
Now use similar triangles to write a proportion:
22 / (24 + x) = 5.5 / x
Cross multiply:
22x = 5.5 (24 + x)
Distribute:
22x = 132 + 5.5x
Combine like terms:
16.5x = 132
Divide:
x = 8
The shadow is 8 feet long.
P(x > 6.9) = 1 - P(x < 6.9) = 1 - P[z < (6.9 - 5.1)/0.9] = 1 - P(z < 2) = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275.
Therefore P(x > 6) is about 2.5%
