If the volume of the right prism shown is 27 ft3, then h = __feet.

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

h=6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a right angle prism-

Find area of cross-section, in this case an isoscles triangle so we know that both of the parallel lines are 3ft

To find the area of the cross-section, do:

3 x 3 = 9

9 ÷ 2 = 4.5 (Area of cross-section)

Since we don't know the length of h, we need do:

27^3 ÷ 4.5 = 6

Therefore 6 is h

Hope I explained it okay:)

Y = x² + 7x - 5 Can be written in the form y = ( x + a )² + b. Find the value of a and the value of b.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

$a=\dfrac{7}{2} \\\\b=\dfrac{49}{4} \\$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=x^2+7x-5\\\\=x^2+2*\dfrac{7}{2}*x +\dfrac{49}{4} -\dfrac{49}{4} -\dfrac{20}{4} \\\\=(x+\dfrac{7}{2} )^2+\dfrac{69}{4} \\\\a=\dfrac{7}{2} \\\\b=\dfrac{49}{4} \\$

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes fuel economy values that are known to be good estimates of the fuel economy

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 16 - 1 = 15

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95$ . So we have T = 1.7531

The margin of error is:

$M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.7531\frac{0.78}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.34$

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 23.29 - 0.34 = 22.95 mpg

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 23.29 + 0.34 = 23.63 mpg

The 90% confidence interval for the mean combined fuel economy for Ford Explorers is between 22.95 and 23.63 mpg.

Which question is a statistical question because it has more than one answer?

emmasim [6.3K]

4 because you’re finding sizes for multiple people while the other questions are just asking for one thing

If a fire is burning a building and it takes 2 hours to put it out using 2000 gal./min., what minimum diameter cylindrical tank

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The minimum diameter of the cylindrical tank needed to store the quantity needed to put out the fire is approximately 58.415 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A gallon equals 0.134 cubic feet. First, we determine the amount of water ( $Q$ ), measured in cubic feet, needed to put out the fire under the assumption that water is consumed at constant rate:
