Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't  even have to do a calculation.  

The arch of the bridge is at point C.

The top of the yacht's mast is at E.

Even though the yacht is much closer to the water's edge, its mast has a much smaller angle of elevation.

The yacht can easily pass under the bridge.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

At least 68% of observations lie between 22 and 26 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 24

Standard deviation = 2

22 = 24 - 2

22 is one standard deviation below the mean

26 = 24 + 2

26 is one standard deviation above the mean.

So, by the empirical rule, at least 68% of observations lie between 22 and 26 months.

a box of crackers has a volume of 48 cubic inches. what is the volume of a similar box that is smaller by a scale factor of 2/3
earnstyle [38]
For this case what you need to know is that the original volume of the cookie box is:
 V = (w) * (l) * (h)
 Where,
 w: width
 l: long
 h: height.
 We have then:
 V = (w) * (l) * (h) = 48 in ^ 3
 The volume of a similar box is:
 V = (w * (2/3)) * (l * (2/3)) * (h * (2/3))
 We rewrite:
 V = ((w) * (l) * (h)) * ((2/3) * (2/3) * (2/3))
 V = (w) * (l) * (h) * ((2/3) ^ 3)
 V = 48 * ((2/3) ^ 3)
 V = 14.22222222 in ^ 3
 Answer:
 the volume of a similar box that is smaller by a scale factor of 2/3 is:
 V = 14.22222222 in ^ 3

How do I solve this?
Artemon [7]

a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)

In this case

49x^4y^2 - 4z^2

= (7x^2y)^2 - (2z)^2

= (7x^2y + 2z)(7x^2y - 2z)

Factors are (7x^2y + 2z) and (7x^2y - 2z)

Answer:

D) 7x^2y + 2z
