Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of trees is

567+324+156+89+678 =1814

Percent fir = 567/1814 = .312568908=31.26 %

Percent pine = 324/1814 = .178610805=17.86%

Percent larch = 156/1814 =.085997795=8.60%

percent cedar = 89/1814 =.049062845=4.91%

Percent hemlock = 678/1814 = .373759647=37.38%

The total should be 100 %

31.26+17.86+8.60+4.91+37.38=100.01 ( rounding error because we rounded to the hundredths place)

Answer:

15A.)

1814 total trees

15B.)

Fir: 31.256890849%

Pine: 17.861080485%

Larch: 8.599779492%

Cedar: 4.906284454%

Hemlock: 37.375964718%

Step-by-step explanation:

15A.) For this first part, you would add all the trees together to get the total:

567+324+156+89+678 = ?

891+156+89+678 - Add 567 and 324 together.

1047+89+678 - Add 891 and 156 together.

1136+678 - Add 1136 and 678 together.

=1814 total trees

15B.) For this second part, you would divide each tree type (567, 324, 156, 89, 678) by the total trees (1814). To convert the decimal to a percent, you would move the decimal point to places to the right. Not sure how many decimal places you wanted for each percent, so I gave the full decimal for you to round as you please on your answer.

Fir: 567/1814 = 0.31256890849 = 31.256890849%

Pine: 324/1814 = 0.17861080485 = 17.861080485%

Larch: 156/1814 = 0.08599779492 = 8.599779492%

Cedar: 89/1814 = 0.04906284454 = 4.906284454%

Hemlock: 678/1814 = 0.37375964718 = 37.375964718%

A circular disc has a circumference of 16pi meters. if we multiply the radius of the circular disc is by 10, what is the circumf

Flauer [41]

The circumference of the new disc 160Π that is 10 time of old circumference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Circumference of circular disc = 16Π (pi = Π)

Let, the radius of the circle be 'r'

Formula

The circumference of a circle with r radius = 2 Π r

According to the problem,

2 Π r = 16Π

or, 2r = 16 ( by eliminating the value of Π from both the side)

or, r = 8

Now, we multiply the radius by 10

so, the new radius is 8 X 10 = 80

Now the circumference = 2 Π X 80

= 160Π

Hence, the new circumference also will be 10 times of the older one.

−6x + 14 < −28 OR 9x + 15 ≤ −12. solve for x.

sasho [114]

Answer:

x>7 or x ≤ -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the 1st inequality

-6x +14 < -28 --------------- (Collect like terms)

-6x < -28 - 14

-6x < - 42 -------------------- (Divide both sides by -6)

Note: If you decide an inequality expression by a negative value, the inequality sign changes)

-6x/-6 > -42/-6

x > 7

Solving the 2nd inequality

9x + 15 ≤ −12 ----------- (Collect like terms)

9x ≤ −12 - 15

9x ≤ −27 ------------------(Divide both sides by 9)

9x/9 ≤ −27/9

x ≤ -3

Bring both results together, we get

x>7 or x ≤ -3

The final result is complex (i.e. can't be combined together).

Special right triangles.

Oliga [24]

QUESTION 9

The given right angle triangle has its two legs equal to $x\:cm$ and the hypotenuse is $2\:units$ .

Using the Pythagoras theorem, we have

$x^2+x^2=2^2$

This implies that;

$2x^2=2^2$

$2x^2=4$

$x^2=2$

$x=\sqrt{2}$

$x=1.414$

$x\approx1.4\:units$

QUESTION 10

The given right angle triangle has its two legs equal to $x\:units$ and the hypotenuse is $7\:units$ .

Using the Pythagoras theorem, we have

$x^2+x^2=7^2$

This implies that;

$2x^2=7^2$

$2x^2=49$

$x^2=24.5$

$x=\sqrt{24.5}$

$x=4.95\:units$

QUESTION 11

Sam divided the square backyard into two sections along the 40ft diagonal.

Let one of the sides of the garden be $x\:units$ , then the other side of the garden is also $x\:units$ since it was a square backyard.

The diagonal is the hypotenuse which is 40ft and the two legs are $x\:units$ each.

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem, we have;

$x^2+x^2=40^2$

$2x^2=1600$

$x^2=800$

$\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{800}$

$\Rightarrow x=28.28$

The length of one side of the garden is approximately 28cm.

QUESTION 12

The hypotenuse of Nicole's right triangular support is 92cm long.

It was given that the two lengths of the triangular support are of equal length.

Let the two lengths of the triangular support be $l\:cm$ each.

We then apply the Pythagoras theorem to obtain;

$l^2+l^2=92^2$

$\Rightarrow 2l^2=8464$

$\Rightarrow l^2=4232$

$\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{4232}$

$\Rightarrow l=65.05cm$

Therefore Nicole needs $l+l=65.05cm+65.05cm\approx130cm$ of wood to complete the support.

The correct answer is A.

QUESTION 13

A 45-45-90 triangle is an isosceles right triangle.

Let the length of the two legs be $m\:inches$ each.

It was given that the hypotenuse of this triangle is $12\:inches$ .

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem, we have;

$m^2+m^2=12^2$

$\Rightarrow 2m^2=144$

$\Rightarrow m^2=72$

$\Rightarrow m=\sqrt{72}$

$\Rightarrow m=8.49$

The length of one leg of the hypotenuse is approximately 8.5 inches to 1 decimal place.

QUESTIONS 14.

It was given that the distance from home plate to first base is 90 feet.

Since the baseball field form a square, the length of the baselines are all 90ft.

We want to calculate the distance from home plate to 2nd base,which is the diagonal of the square baseball field.

Let this distance be $d\:ft$ , then using the Pythagoras theorem;

$d^2=90^2+90^2$

$d^2=8100+8100$

$d^2=16200$

$\:d=\sqrt{16200}$

$\:d=127.279$

Therefore the distance from home plate to second base is 127 ft to the nearest foot.

QUESTION 15.

The distance from third base to first base is also 127 ft to the nearest foot.

The reason is that the diagonals of a square are equal in length.

Please help ASAP! X= A) 4 B) 7 C) 9

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

C) x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When two segments intersect in a circle like so, the product of the two parts of one segment will be equal to the product of the two parts of the other segment.

So, 3 * 6 = x * 2

Multiply: 18 = x * 2

Divide: x = 9
