Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, the complete question is Angela makes a pillow in the shape of a wedge to use for watching TV. The pillow is filled with 12 ft³ of fluffy material. The base is 3 ft, the height is 2 ft, what is the length of the pillow?

The length of the pillow is 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the volume of the wedge is $V=\frac{1}{2}bhl$ , where

b is the base of it
h is the height of it
l is the length of it

∵ The pillow in the shape of a wedge

∵ The pillow is filled with 12 ft³ of fluffy material

∴ The volume of the wedge = 12 ft³

∵ The base = 3 feet

∵ The height = 2 feet

- Use the formula of the volume above to find its length

∵ $V=\frac{1}{2}(2)(3)l$

∴ V = 3 l

∵ V = 12 ft³

- Equate 3 l by 12

∴ 3 l = 12

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ l = 4 feet

∴ The length of the pillow is 4 feet

67. The line contains the point (4,0) and is parallel to the line defined by 3x = 2y.

olganol [36]

Answer:

$y=\frac{3}{2} x-6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we need to know:

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+b$ where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)

Parallel lines will always have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

1) Determine the slope of the parallel line

Organize 3x = 2y into slope-intercept form. Why? So we can easily identify the slope, m.

$3x = 2y$

Switch the sides

$2y=3x$

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate y

$\frac{2y}{2} = \frac{3}{2} x\\y=\frac{3}{2} x$

Now that this equation is in slope-intercept form, we can easily identify that $\frac{3}{2}$ is in the place of m. Therefore, because parallel lines have the same slope, the parallel line we're solving for now will also have the slope $\frac{3}{2}$ . Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=\frac{3}{2} x+b$

2) Determine the y-intercept

$y=\frac{3}{2} x+b$

Plug in the given point, (4,0)

$0=\frac{3}{2} (4)+b\\0=6+b$

Subtract both sides by 6

$0-6=6+b-6\\-6=b$

Therefore, -6 is the y-intercept of the line. Plug this into $y=\frac{3}{2} x+b$ as b:

$y=\frac{3}{2} x-6$

I hope this helps!

Determine the sample size needed to construct a 99% confidence interval to estimate the average GPA for the student population

Volgvan

Answer: n = 14

Step-by-step explanation: margin of error = critical value × σ/√n

Where σ = population standard deviation = 1

n = sample size = ?

We are to construct a 99% confidence interval, hence the level of significance is 1%.

The critical value for 2 tailed test at 1% level of significance is gotten from a standard normal distribution table which is 2.58

Margin of error = 0.7

0.7 = 2.58×1/√n

0.7 = 2.58/√n

By cross multipying

0.7×√n = 2.58

By squaring both sides

0.7^2 × n = 2.58^2

0.49 × n = 6.6564

n = 6.6564/0.49

n = 14
