A ride extended 800 ft along the street, and Riders dropped 50 ft. how long was the zip line ?

fgiga [73]

First, add up the parts of the ratio...
2+3+5=10
then divide the whole into individual parts...
25/10=2.5
then multiply the value of 1 part by the amount in the ratio...
2.5 x 2 =5
2.5 x 3 = 7.5
2.5 x 5 = 12.5
so the final ratio is 5kg:7.5kg:12.5kg
Hope this helps :)

An assembly consists of two mechanical components. Suppose that the probabilities that the first and second components meet spec

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The probability mass function is given by

P(X = 0) = 0.003, P(X = 1) = 0.164, P(X = 2) = 0.833

Step-by-step explanation:

Given to us are two mechanical components.

The probability of the first component meeting the given specifications are 0.98.

The probability that the second component meets the given specifications = 0.85.

In the information given the components are said to be independent.

The probability mass function will be calculated in the following way

i.) P(X=0) which is the probability that neither of the components meet the specifications.

ii) P(X=1) which is the probability when either of the components will meet the specifications and the other will not.

iii) P(X=2) which is the probability that both components meet the specification.

Therefore P(X = 0) = ( 1 - 0.98) × ( 1 - 0.85) = 0.02 × 0.15 = 0.003

and, P(X = 1) = (0.98 × ( 1 - 0.85)) + (( 1 - 0.98) × 0.85)

= (0.98 × 0.15) + (0.02 × 0.85)

= 0.147 + 0.017

= 0.164

and finally, P(X=2) = (0.98 × 0.85)

= 0.833

Helga [31]

Answer:

Self selection sampling.

Step-by-step explanation:

A poll that does not attempt to generate a random sample, but instead invites people to volunteer to participate is called - self selection sampling.

Self-selection sampling is a sampling method where researchers allow the people or individuals, to choose to take part in research on their own accord.

Geometry problem help! Please refer to the image below...

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

A. 1/3

B. √10

C. -1, 1

D. √8, 6

E. congruent and opposite pairs parallel

F. perpendicular, not congruent

G. rhombus, explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

A.

Slope is the rise over the run. Let's look at F to G.

We are going from -1 to 2 on our x-axis (run), so our run is 3 units.

Our rise is 1 unit as we go from 2 to 3 on the y-axis.

$slope=\frac{rise}{run} =\frac{1}{3}$

This slope is the same for all of the sides.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

B.

We will use the distance formula (which is basically just the Pythagorean Theorem) to calculate the length of each side. Let's go between F and G again, but this distance is the same for all the sides.

$\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_1)^2+(y_{2}-y_1)^2 } \\\\(x_1,y_1)=(-1,2)\\\\(x_2,y_2)=(2,3)\\\\\\\sqrt{(2+1)^2+(3-2)^2 } \\\\\sqrt{(3)^2+(1)^2 }\\\\\sqrt{9+1 }\\\\\sqrt{10}$

-----------------------------------------------------------------

C.

The diagonals are the lines that connect the non-adjacent vertices.

Our two diagonals are FH and GE.

-----------------------------

FH

We go from x-value -1 to 1 from F to H, so our run is 2.

We go from y-value 2 to 0. so our rise is -2.

$slope=\frac{rise}{run} =-\frac{2}{2} =-1$

-----------------------------

GE

We go from x-value -2 to 2 from E to G, so our run is 4.

We go from y-value -1 to 3. so our rise is 4.

$slope=\frac{rise}{run} =\frac{4}{4} =1$

-----------------------------------------------------------------

D.

Let's use the distance formula on each of our diagonals.

-----------------------------

FH

$\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_1)^2+(y_{2}-y_1)^2 } \\\\(x_1,y_1)=(-1,2)\\\\(x_2,y_2)=(1,0)\\\\\\\sqrt{(1+1)^2+(0-2)^2 } \\\\\sqrt{(2)^2+(-2)^2 }\\\\\sqrt{4+4 }\\\\\sqrt{8}$

-----------------------------

GE

$\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_1)^2+(y_{2}-y_1)^2 } \\\\(x_1,y_1)=(-2,-1)\\\\(x_2,y_2)=(2,3)\\\\\\\sqrt{(2+2)^2+(3+1)^2 } \\\\\sqrt{(4)^2+(4)^2 }\\\\\sqrt{16+16 }\\\\\sqrt{36}\\\\6$

-----------------------------------------------------------------

E.

They are congruent as they all have the same length (√10) and the opposite sides are parallel as they have the same slope (1/3)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

F.

They are perpendicular diagonals as their slopes are negative reciprocals (1 and -1), and they are not congruent as they have different lengths (√8 and 6).

-----------------------------------------------------------------

G.

Parallelogram- quadrilateral with opposite pairs of parallel sides.

Rhombus- a parallelogram with four equal sides

Square- a rhombus with four right angles

We can see that this is a parallelogram as we saw that the opposite sides are parallel due to having the same slope, and the perpendicular diagonals show that as well. This is also a rhombus because if we use that distance formula on all the sides, it will be the same. It is not a square though because it does not have four right angles, so this is a rhombus.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning!

Housing costs are what percentage of monthly net income? Use the budget sheet to calculate. Round your answer to the nearest who

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating percent is

% = (cost of item/total cost) × 100 %

% = (cost of item/1875) × 100 %

% = (cost of item/18.75) %

You can use the same formula to calculate the percent for each item in the budget. For example,

Housing: % = 420/18.75 = 22 %

You can do this for each budget item and get the table below.

$\begin{array}{lrr}\text{Expense} & \text{Cost} & \%\\\text{Housing} & 430 & 22\\\text{Food} & 300 & 16\\\text{Utilities} & 125 & 7\\\text{Transportation} & 320 & 17\\\text{Savings} & 500 & 27\\\text{Other} & 200 & 11\\\text{TOTAL} & 1875 & 100\\\end{array}$
