Answer:

1) B. The height appear to be reported because there are disproportionately more 0s and 5s.

2) A. They are likely not very accurate because they appear to be reported.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution table is shown below:

Last Digit           Frequency

     0                          9

     1                           1

     2                          1

     3                          3

     4                          1

     5                         11

     6                          1

     7                          0

     8                          3

     9                          1

1. Based on the distribution table, we see a very disproportionate distribution. There is a high frequency of 0's and 5's. This lays credence to the heights being reported rather than measured. As such, option B is the correct answer

<u>B. The height appear to be reported because there are disproportionately more 0s and 5s</u>.

2. Since the heights were reported and not measured, they are most certainly not accurate. The conclusion is that the result is not accurate. As such, option A is the correct answer

<u>A. They are likely not very accurate because they appear to be reported</u>.

A ramp is to be built beside the steps to the campus library. Find the angle of elevation of the 23​-foot ​ramp, to the nearest
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

the angle of elevation is 12.56°

Step-by-step explanation:

the height of the ramp represents the opposite side and the length of the ramp the hypotenuse

we see that it has (angle, hypotenuse, opposite)

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse

a: adjacent

o: opposite

h: hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

cos α= a/h

tan α = o/a

we choose the one with opposite and hypotenuse

sin α = o/h

sin α = 5ft / 23ft

sin α = 5/23

α = sin^-1 ( 5/23)

α = 12.56°

the angle of elevation is 12.56°

Curtis rides his bike 9 miles one way then turns around and rides back. On the return trip, his speed is increased 20% because t
k0ka [10]

Answer:

The expression that represents his total time is given by "t = 7.5/s" where s is his speed against the wind.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we will assign a variable to Curtis speed on the first leg of the trip, this will be called "s". Since the speed on the first part is "s" and the speed on the second part is 20% higher, then the speed on the second part is "1.2s". Each leg of the course is 9 miles long, therefore the time it took to go each way is given by:

time = distance/speed

First part:

t1 = 9/s

Second part:

t2 = 9/1.2s = 7.5/s

The expression for the whole course is the sum of each, so we have:

t = t1 + t2

t = 9/s + 7.5/s

t = (9 + 7.5)/s = (16.5)/s

I’m lost please help
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangles are said to be congruent if one of the 4 following rules is valid

  1. The three sides are equal
  2. The three angles are equal
  3. Two angles are the same and a corresponding side is the same
  4. Two sides are equal and the angle between the two sides is equal

Let's consider the two triangles ΔABC and ΔAED.

ΔABC sides are AB, BC and AC

ΔAED sides are AD, AE and ED

We have AE = AC and EB = CD

So AE + EB = AC + CD

But AE + EB = AB and AC+CD = AD

We have

AB of ΔABC  = AD of ΔAED

AC of ΔABC =  AE of ΔAED

Thus two sides the these two triangles. In order to prove that the triangles are congruent by rule 4, we have to prove that the angle between the sides is also equal. We see that the common angle is ∡BAC = ∡EAC

So  triangles ΔABC and ΔAED are congruent

That means all 3 sides of these triangles are equal as well as all the angles

Since BC is the third side of ΔABC and ED the third side of ΔAED, it follows that

BC = ED  Proved
