Answer:

The height is 36 in

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a rectangular based pyramid.

Step one

Given data

Volume v = 1944 in

length of base l = 18 in

width of base w = 9 in

Height h= ?

Step two

we know that the expression for the volume of a pyramid is given as

$volume=\frac{ lwh}{3}$

substituting our given data we have

$volume = \frac{18*9*h}{3} \\volume = \frac{162h}{3} \\volume= 54h$

but volume = 1944 in therefore

$1944= 54h\\h= \frac{1944}{54} \\h= 36 in$

angle and angle b are complentary angles. if angle a = (2x-5) and m angle b = (5x+4) then find the measure of angle a

iris [78.8K]

complementary angles = 90

2x-5 + 5x+4 = 90

combine like terms

7x-1 =90

7x = 91

divide by 7

x =13

angle a

2x-5

2*13-5

Jerry goes to a theme park to ride the roller coasters. The theme park charges an entry fee in addition to a fee for each roller

ratelena [41]

You start with: (assuming x equals the cost to enter and y the cost of going on the rollercoasters.)
x+5y=35
x+11y=59. Multiply the top equation by -1, and subtract the equations, giving you -6y=-24, divide by -6 into both sides of the equation, to get y=4. Now replace y in one of the original equations (I recommend x+5y=35) and solve for x, giving you x=15

The cost for entering is 15 dollars, while each coaster is 4 dollars more. You could simplify this by changing y into x and making it slope-intercept form, to track your cost. y=4x+15, so it has a slope of 4, and a y-intercept of 15. This answer should give you a good grade on a test.

A multiple choice exam has 20 questions. Each question has 3 possible answers; there is no partial credit. Only 1 answer out of

Answer:To find out the theoretical probability of the case given, we need to make certain assumptions.

First, we'll assume that he'll attempt all of the questions, i.e he'll attempt all 10 questions.

Next assumption is that each option in each question is equally likely to be marked by the student.

This pretty much leads us to a binomial probability distribution.

Conditions are:

Answers 10 questions.

Each question has 4 options with only one correct answer and all other incorrect answers.

Student is equally likely to pick any outcome in any given question.

Hence, probability of choosing correct answer is 1/4 = 0.25. Probability of choosing incorrect answer is 1–1/4 = 3/4 = 0.75.

The number of trials is 10.

Total number of success is exactly 8 and failure is 2 amongst the 10 questions in any particular order.

Now, calculation is fairly simple.

Binomial probability distribution is such that…

P(8 correct ; 2 wrong)

= 10C8 × (0.25)^8 × (0.75)²

= 405/1048576 ≈ 3.862380981 × 10^-4 ≈ 0.000386
