. The Empire State Building is a 102-story skyscraper. Its height is 1,250 ft. from the ground to the roof. The length and width

of the building are approximately 424 ft. and 187 ft., respectively. A manufacturing company plans to make a miniature version of the building and sell cases of them to souvenir shops.
a. The miniature version is just 1/ 2500 of the size of the original. What are the dimensions of the miniature Empire State Building?
b. Determine the volume of the minature building. Explain how you determined the volume.

Answer: a) Dimensions of miniature is 0.17 × 0.08 × 0.5, b) 0.006 ft³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Height of building = 1250 feet

Length of building = 424 ft

Width of building = 187 ft

Now, we know that The miniature version is just 1/ 2500 of the size of the original.

So, Height of miniature would be

\dfrac{1250}{2500}=0.5\ ft

Length of miniature would be

\dfrac{424}{2500}=0.17\ ft

Width of miniature would be

\dfrac{187}{2500}=0.08\ ft

a) What are the dimensions of the miniature Empire State Building?

Dimensions of miniature is 0.17 × 0.08 × 0.5

b. Determine the volume of the miniature building. Explain how you determined the volume.

Volume=0.5\times 0.08\times 0.17=0.006\ ft^3

Hence, a) Dimensions of miniature is 0.17 × 0.08 × 0.5, b) 0.006 ft³.

The large triangle is an isosceles since both angles at the base each equal 42°.
In an isosceles triangle the altitude z is at the same time median , then it bisects the opposite side in the middle . So w = 120/2 = 60

Now let's calculate z:
 tan 42° = (opposite side) / (adjacent side) = z/60
tan 42° = 0.9,
0.9 = z/60 and z = 54

Yanka [14]

Answer:

<u>$4800</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected net income is the probability when rains multiplied by net income (profit) summed with the probability of not raining with that days net income multiplied.

First, Chance of rain = 12% = 12/100 = 0.12

Profit/Loss = Income - Cost

Income is 5000

Cost = 9000

So,

Loss = 5000 - 9000 = 4000

Or, Net Income (profit) = - 4000

Now, Change of not raining = 100 - 12 = 88% = 88/100 = 0.88

Profit = Income - Cost

Income = 15,000

Cost = 9000

Net Income (profit) = 15000 - 9000 = 6000

So, we can write the expected net income as:

<u>Expected NI </u>= (0.12)(-4000) + (0.88)(6000) = <u>$4800</u>

Angles
coldgirl [10]
<h3>Answer: XWY and STR</h3>

I tend to think of parallel lines as train tracks (the metal rail part anyway). Inside the train tracks is the interior region, while outside the train tracks is the exterior region. Alternate exterior angles are found here. Specifically they are angles that are on opposite or alternate sides of the transversal cut.

Both pairs of alternate exterior angles are shown in the diagram below. They are color coded to help show how they pair up and which are congruent.

A thing to notice: choices B, C, and D all have point W as the vertex of the angles. This means that the angles somehow touch or are adjacent in some way due to this shared vertex point. However, alternate exterior angles never touch because parallel lines never do so either. We can rule out choices B,C,D from this reasoning alone. We cannot have both alternate exterior angles on the same exterior side of the train tracks. Both sides must be accounted for.

dybincka [34]

If your solving for x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the inequality:

-24 ≤ 3x - 9        First add 9 on both sides

-24 + 9 ≤ 3x - 9 + 9

-15 ≤ 3x        Then divide 3 on both sides to get "x" by itself

\frac{-15}{3} \leq \frac{3x}{3}

-5 ≤ x                  [or  x ≥ -5 if you prefer "x" to be on the left side]
