Answer:

Hence the length of the base is given by 7 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Volume of a triangular prism=140 ci

Height=4 inches

base height =10 inches.

To Find:

Length of base

Solution:

We know that ,

Volume of triangular prism is given by

V=1/2(base *height* length)=1/2*b*h*l

Here V=140 ci

b=10 inches ,h=4 inches.

140=1/2*(10*4*l)

280=40l

l=280/40

l=7 inches

Answer:

The length of the base is 7 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangular prism with base height h, length l, and base length b has volume V given by

V=\frac{1}{2}lbh

We are told that the volume of the prism is 140 cubic inches, and h=10, l=4; therefore we have:

140=\frac{1}{2}(4)(10)b

b=\frac{140*2}{4*10} =7\:inches

\boxed{b=7\:inches}

The length of the base is 7 inches.

What is the following difference 11 sqrt 45 - 4 sqrt 5
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

29*sqrt(5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with sqrt (45). You must reduce it to it's prime factors.

45: 9 * 5            9 is not prime so reduce it.

45: 3 * 3 * 5  

When you write √45, you should replace it with √(3*3*5)

The rule is

Rule: when you have a pair of equal prime factors under a root sign, you can take one out and throw one away.

Rule 2: If there are an odd number of equal primes one of them will be left underneath the root sign.

√45 = 3√5

11sqrt(45) - 4 sqrt(5)              Substitute for 45

11*3*sqrt(5) - 4sqrt(5)            Take out sqrt(5) using the distributive property.

(11*3 - 4)*sqrt(5)                      Combine 11 * 3  

(33- 4) * sqrt(5)                       Do the subtraction

29 * sqrt(5)                             Answer

There is a competition at the local movie theater for free movie tickets. You must guess all four employees' ages given a few cl
Pie

Complete question :

There is a competition at the local movie theater for free movie tickets. You must guess all four employees' ages given a few clues. The first clue is when their ages are added together the sum is 106. Kirk is 2 times the quantity of ten years less than the manager's age, Brian is 12 years younger than twice the manager's age, ,and Matt is 6 years older than ½ the manager's age. What are all four of their ages? Be sure to show set up equation work and answer

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following clue :

Let manager's age = m

Kirk's age = k

Brian's age = b

Matt's age = a

Sum of their ages = 106

k = 2(m - 10) = 2m - 20

b = 2m - 12

a = 0.5m + 6

k + b + a + m = 106

Express all their ages in terms of m

2m - 20 + 2m - 12 + 0.5m + 6 + m = 106

5.5m - 20 - 12 + 6 = 106

5.5m - 26 = 106

5.5m = 106 + 26

5.5m = 132

m = 132 / 5.5

m = 24

Manager's age = 24 years

kirk = 2(24 - 10) = 2(14) = 28 years

Brian = 2(24) - 12 = 48 - 12 = 36 years

Matt = 0.5(24) + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 years

Please help with this cylinder
makkiz [27]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a parallelogram = base times height

Given area = 40

Given height = 4

Given = x + 6

Thus,

40 = 4 * (6 + x )

Step 1 distribute the 4

4 * 6 = 24

4 * x = 4x

we now have 40 = 24 + 4x

step 2 subtract 24 from each side

40 - 24 = 16

24 - 24 cancels out

now we have 16 = 4x

step 3 divide each side by 4

4x / 4 = x

16 / 4 = 4

we're left with x = 4

To check our work, we can plug in the value of x and find the area of the parallelogram then. If it equals 40 the x = 4 is true.

(x + 6) * 4

* substitute 4 for x *

(4 + 6) * 4

4 + 6 = 10

10 * 4 = 40

40 = 40

Hence x = 4

"Suppose we are testing the null hypothesis H0: = 20 and the alternative Ha: 20, for a Normal population with = 5. A random samp
mezya [45]

Complete question is;

Suppose we are testing the null hypothesis H0: μ = 20 and the alternative Ha: μ ≠ 20, for a normal population with σ = 5. A random sample of 25 observations are drawn from the population, and we find the sample mean of these observations is x¯ = 17.6. The P-value is closest to:

a. 0.0668.

b. 0.0082.

c. 0.0164.

d. 0.1336

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 20

Alternative hypothesis; Ha: μ ≠ 20

Population Standard deviation; σ = 5

Sample size; n = 25

Sample mean; x¯ = 17.6

Let's find the z-score from the formula;

z = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)

z = (17.6 - 20)/(5/√5)

z = - 1.073

From online p-value from z-score calculator attached, using z = -1.073; two tailed hypothesis; significance value of 0.05,we have;

The P-Value is 0.283271.

Looking at the given options, the closest to the p-value is option D
