When building a roof, carpenters put vertical boards every 2 feet along the horizontal baseline. The height of the boards, y, fo

r the roof shown can be represented with the equation:
y = 0.4x,
where x is the horizontal distance from the nearest corner. How far from the corner is the board that is 4 feet tall?

Answer:

10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

define variables:

y= height of the boards

x= distance to corner

we are trying to figure out what x is since we know the height of the board

4= 0.4x

divide both sides by 0.4

10=x

Complete Question

Question: In the bronze medal game of the 2014 FIBA Asia Cup... In the bronze medal game of the 2014 FIBA Asia Cup, and with his team down by two points, Philippines guard Paul Dalistan was fouled while attempting a three-pointer at the buzzer. He missed the shot and headed to the line for three foul shots.

1. Watch the video of Dalistan preparing to take his first shot. Before he shoots, what is the probability that Philippines will win the game? Lose the game? Send it into overtime? Dalistan’s free throw percentage is 84.6%

Answer:

a

    The probability that Philippines will win the game is   P(A) =  0.6055

b

   The probability that Philippines will lose the game is P(B) =  0.00365

c

  The probability that the game will be sent to overtime  is P(C) =  0.06

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  probability of  Paul Dalistan making a shot is  p  =  0.846

   The probability of  Paul Dalistan not making the shot is  q =  1- p  =  1-  0.846=0.154

     Paul Dalistan team was down by two points

This mean that for Paul Dalistan's  team to win the game he must make the 3 free throws

So the probability that Philippines will win the game is mathematically represented as

    P(A) =   p^3

=>  P(A) =  0.846^3

=>  P(A) =  0.6055

Gnerally for Paul Dalistan's  team to loss the game it means that Paul Dalistan did not make any of the free shot

Hence the probability that Philippines will loss the game is  

     P(B) =  q^3

=>  P(B) =  (0.154 )^3

=>  P(B) =  0.00365

Generally for the game to be sent to overtime  then the game must be tied and for the game to be tied, Paul Dalistan have to make 2 out of the three shots

   Hence the probability that game will go to overtime is  

          P(C) =  3 *  0.846 *  0.154  *  0.154

         P(C) =  0.06

URGENT!!LAST QUESTION!!!! PLS JUST TAKE A LOOK! EASY BUT I AM DUMB!!!!!! WILL GIVE BRANLIEST!!
Luden [163]

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

If the quadrilaterals are similar, there is a proportionality among their sides:

The top side in the large figure (70) is to the top side in the small figure (10) in the same ratio as the left side (x) in the large figure is to the left side in the small figure (4). This in math terms is written as:

\frac{70}{10} =\frac{x}{4}

We can then solve for the unknown "x" by multiplying both sides by 4:

\frac{70}{10} =\frac{x}{4}\\\frac{70\,*\,4}{10} =x\\x=28

2. What would a point on the horizontal axis represent? What about on the vertical axis?
Nikitich [7]
In analytic geometry, using the common convention that the horizontal axis represents a variable x and the vertical axis represents a variable y, a y-intercept or vertical intercept is a point where the graph of a function or relation intersects the y-axis of the coordinate system. As such, these points satisfy x = 0.


A coordinate grid has two perpendicular lines, or axes, labeled like number lines. The horizontal axis is called the x-axis. The vertical axis is called the y-axis. The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect is called the origin. The numbers on a coordinate grid are used to locate points.
