The building is about 70.95 feet tall.

The building and the laser range will form a right triangle. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height of the building.

112^2 + b^2 = 131^2
b = 67.95

However, don't forget to add on 3 because that is the height of the laser range.

The dot plots show rainfall total for several spring storms in highlands areas an lowlands areas what is the median rainfall for
tankabanditka [31]

*See attached picture showing the dot plots referred to

Answer:

16mm

Step-by-step Explanation:

Given the dot plot showing rainfall for Highlands storms, we can find out the median rainfall for Highlands storms by mere observing the dot plot and locating where the middle value falls within the data set that is represented on the dot plot.

Thus, we have 44 data sets that is being represented on the plot, with one dot representing one data set for rainfall. This means, since the total number of data set is even, our median lies between the 22nd and the 23rd dot or data set that is being plotted.

From the dot plot for Highlands, the 22nd and 23rd dots are 16 and 16 respectively.

Therefore, median rainfall for Highland storms = (16 + 16) ÷ 2 = 16.

I need help plz you leave you house at 1 p.m to go to a wedding. The ceremony starts at 5 p.m. and is 350 miles away. You drive
3241004551 [841]
You leave at 1 P.M., the wedding ceremony starts at 5 P.M.

This gives you a 4 hour gap, the Wedding is 350 miles away, and you're traveling at 65 miles an hour.

Simply you can use two methods, (65 * 4) to verify if you'd make it or not or (350/65) to ensure how many hours it would take in total.

65 * 4 = 260 | Since this is not 350, we can verify that you'd be late.
350/65 = 5.4 (estimated) | Meaning it'd take about 5.4 hours.

To know how long that is we'd have to convert over.

5.4 = 5 2/5ths, 60 minutes are in an hour. Divide 60 by 5 to get 12, meaning:
1/5ths = 12/60ths, with that said multiply that by 2 to get your answer.
2/5ths = 24/60ths or 24 minutes.

This means you'd take 5 hours and 24 minutes to get there.

Originally we stated that the process would take 4 hours. Subtract:

(5 hours and 24 minutes) - (4 hours) = (1 hour and 24 minutes)

Concluding that you'd be late by an hour and 24 minutes.

I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^

Volgvan

Answer:

divide the 32 by 4:

then the equation becomes:

8 x 9 x 5 = 360

this is the same as 32 x 9 x 5/4 = 360

Let f(x)=2x-1 and g(x)=x^2 -3. Find (f o g)(-3)
anzhelika [568]
(f o g)(-3) = (f(g(-3))
Because g is on the inside, we carry out g first.

g(x) = x^2 - 3
Substitute -3 in for x.
g(-3) = (-3)^2 - 3 = 9 - 3 = 6
g(-3) = 6

Next, carry out f on the result of g(-3)
f(6) = 2(6) - 1
      = 12 - 1
      = 11
So the answer is 11.
