<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>Length of the drainpipe = 700.7 cm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a builder makes drainpipes that drop 1 cm over a horizontal distance of 30cm to prevent clogs. The ratio of the vertical drop to the horizontal distance covered is \frac{1}{30} cm.

The angle of inclination,

tan(θ) = \frac{1}{30}

θ = 1.9º

By trignometric ratio,

cos(θ) = \frac{horizontal distance}{length of the drainpipe}

length of the drainpipe = \frac{700}{cos(1.91)} = \frac{700}{0.999}

length of the drainpipe = 700.7 cm

Level 3<br> Solve: |x + 2|– 5 = -1
leonid [27]

Answer:

x=−6

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms and use the properties of equality to get the variable on one side of the equal sign and the numbers on the other side. Remember to follow the order of operations.

∣x+2∣−5=−1

Add 5 to both sides of the equation.

∣x+2∣=4

Use the definition of absolute value.

x+2=4

x+2=−4

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.

x=2

x=−6

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

0.925 or 92.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

y=a(1-b)^x

decay factor is 1-b <- and the part we care about

b is 7.5%=0.075

1-0.075

=0.925

I'm a little rusty on exponential rates, but I hope this helps!

A fair die is tossed 5 times. Let <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bm%7D%7Bn%7D" id="TexFormula1" title="\dfrac{m}{n}
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

m = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can suppose that the number we are looking for is for example 5.

(we can do so because the probability is the same for each number - it'sna fair dice)

For the first toss the probability we have 5 is 1/6 (we have 6 numbers on the dice and number 5 is just one of the possible 6 outcomes).

For the second toss the probability we have 5 is again 1/6.

For the rest of 3 tosses we don'tcare what number we will get( we have our two consecutive 5s), so all of the outcomes for the rest of 3 tosses are good for us (probability is 6/6 = 1)

Threfore, the probability to get two consecutive 5s is 1/6 * 1/6 * 1 * 1 * 1 = 1/36.

We can see that m = 1.
