the rectangular swimming pool in my backyard is 15 feet wide and 30 feet long. I have a raft in the shape of a right triangle wi

th a base of 3 feet and a height of 4 feet. if I jump off of the diving board into the pool what is the probability that I will land on my raft?

Hey there!

First of all, let's find the area of the pool.

15(30)=450 feet squared.

Now, let's find the area of the triangle.

4(3)=12/2=6 feet squared

Assuming that you can land anywhere in the pool, including the diving board (as we didn't get any measurements for it so that we can eliminate it)

This gives us 6/450, which simplifies to 1/75.

Therefore, you have 1/75 or 1.3% chance of landing on the raft.

I hope this helps!

there is a line includes the point (0,4) and has a slope of 7 what is its equation in slope-intercept form
Oliga [24]

Answer:

y=7x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope- intercept form is y=mx+c

m=7

so y=7x+c

substitute (0,4) into y=7x+c

so 4=(7x0)+c

c=4

so y=7x+4

Please help this question.

Answer:

a). 59.049°C

b). 2.1179 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression representing the final temperature after decrease in temperature of the metal from 100°C to T°C is,

T = 100(0.9)^{x}

where x = duration of cooling

a). Temperature when x = 5 seconds

T = 100(0.9)⁵

  = 59.049

  ≈ 59.049°C

b). If the temperature of the metal decreases from 100°C to 80°C

Which means for T = 80°C we have to calculate the duration of cooling 'x' seconds

80 = 100(0.9)^{x}

0.8 = (0.9)^{x}

By taking log on both the sides

log(0.8) =log[(0.9)^{x}]

-0.09691 = x[log(0.9)]

-0.09691 = -0.045757x

x = \frac{0.09691}{0.045757}

x = 2.1179

x ≈ 2.1179 seconds

What is the length of segment TQ?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that \triangle SRV \con \triangle QRV by SAS, so this means QV=SV by CPCTC. Hence, 4x-1 \longrightarrow x=4.

We also know that \triangle STR \cong \triangle QTR by SAS, so this means TS=TQ by CPCTC. Since TS=3x+2=3(4)+2=14, <u>TQ=14.</u>
