Area of triangle = 1/2 base x height

Let h be the height.

8.6 = 1/2 x 3.2h

8.6 = 1.6h

h = 8.6 ÷ 1.6 

h = 5.4 in (nearest tenth)

Answer: 5.4 in

43 coins, no nickels, $4.51 equal amount amount of pennies and dimes, how many of each coin
Sonbull [250]
Set up
Let the dimes = d
Let the pennies = p
Let the quarters = q

Equations
You cannot mean that the pennies and dimes have equal numbers. That would mean that each had 21.5 members. Now could you mean that the dime and penny amount could be the same with 43 coins that total 4.00. Four dollars means that you need 40 dimes alone. It must mean that you are including quarters. 

p + d + p = 43          (1)
p = d                        (2)
p +10d +25q = 451  (3)

Note how this last equation = was derived. You have to multiply the dimes by 10 and he quarters by 100 and the total by 100 to get the numbers all in pennies.

Put the results of 2 into 1.
2p  + q = 43                   (4)  
You need to modify equation 3 as well.
p + 10p + 25q = 451
11p + 25q  = 451           (5)

Solve the new equations
2p +  q = 43               (4)
11p + 25q = 451        (5)

Multiply 4 by 25
25(2p- + q = 43)
50p + 25q = 1075     (6)  Subtract (5) from (6)
<u>11p + 25q = 451
</u>39p = 624                        Divide by 39
p = 624 / 39
p = 16

Since the pennies and dimes are equal there are 16 dimes
p + d + q = 43
16 + 16 + q = 43
32 + q = 43
q = 11

Check
16 + 10*16 + 11*25 = ?
16 + 160 + 275  = ?
451 = ?

Nice problem. Thanks for posting.

Suppose that a box of 86 circuits is sent to a manufacturing plant. Of the 86 circuits shipped, 5 are defective. The plant manag
Triss [41]

Answer:

the probability that the shipment is accepted is 0.8865

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

N = 86,  n/d = 5 and n = 2

now, without replacement

the probability that the shipment is accepted will be;

probability that the shipment is accepted = probability that non is defectives

so p( non is defective ) = ( (86-5)/86) × ((86-5-1)/(86-1))            

p( non is defective ) =  ( 81 / 86) × (80/85)

p( non is defective ) =  0.8865

Therefore, the probability that the shipment is accepted is 0.8865

Please help me with this question :)​
just olya [345]

Answer:

3rd option.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2|k|}{5} = 4

move 5 to the other side of the equation.

2|k| = 5(4)

2|k| = 20

move 2 to the other side of the equation.

|k| = \frac{20}{2}

k = 10

Julian is using a biking app that compares his position to a simulated biker traveling Julian's target speed. When Julian is beh
Gwar [14]

Answer:

11 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Simulated speed = 20/km/h

Time = 15 mins = 1/4 hr = 0.25 hr

Distance Covered as per simulated speed = 20\times \frac{1}{4}=5km

Position of Julian according to the app = -2\frac{1}{4}=-2.25.

Actual distance covered by the bike is

Distance= 5 - 2.25 = 2.75km

Formula for speed:

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{Distance}{Time}

\text{Average Speed}=\frac{2.75}{0.25}

\text{Average Speed}=11

Therefore, the average speed of Julian is 11 km/hr.
