Answer: 4004.76\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

inclination is \theta=75^{\circ}

Mountain is h=3900\ ft high

Cable is tied x=910\ ft from the base of the mountain

From the figure, length of the shortest path is l

It is given by using Pythagoras theorem

\Rightarrow l^2=3900^2+910^2\\\Rightarrow l=\sqrt{(3900)^2+(910)^2}\\\Rightarrow l=4004.76\ ft

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

It's a valid sample because the first five people were selected to participate.

Step-by-step explanation:

True because random people who saw the advertisement responded. By chance, not every person who saw the advertisement answered, therefore it was random, but it would be more random if he decided to reject the second, fourth, sixth, and eighth person, and only the first, third, fifth, seventh, and ninth were chosen.

How much paint does Brielle need to finish her room
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Paint Needed = 1.25 gallons = It means 1 gallon and 1 quart of paint is needed to paint the Briellie's room.

Step-by-step explanation:

As, this question is incomplete, so we will create similar question and complete it. '

Let's suppose Brielle's room has following dimensions:

Length of two walls =  10 ft

Length of other two walls = 12 ft

Height of the room from bottom to ceiling = 10 ft

In order to calculate the amount of paint needed, we need to calculate the surface area of the room to be painted.

So, for that, add all the lengths together and multiply it by height of the room.

SF = (L1 +L2 +L3+ L4) x H

SF = (10 + 10 + 12 + 12) x (10)

SF = 440 sq.ft = Actual footage of the room to be painted.

Now, we have convert this number in gallons to know the amount of paint required to paint Brielle's room. For this, we need to divide our SF to 350 sq.ft per gallon.

Paint Needed = 440 sq.ft / 350 sq.ft per gallon

Paint Needed = 1.25 gallons = It means 1 gallon and 1 quart of paint is needed to paint the Briellie's room.
