From the setup of the problem, the "length of the top of the bookcase, measured along the attic ceiling" will be the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the length "AB". We have both the angle between AB and AC and the length of AC (3.24 meters), so we can use trigonometric identities.
The cosine of the 40 degree angle between AB and AC is equivalent to the length of AC divided by the length of AB. Equivalently, we have:
where "h", the hypotenuse, is the length we want. Rearranging the formula to solve for h we have that
which is 4.2295... meters. Converting to centimeters (multiplying by 100) we have that h = 422.95... centimeters, or if we round the value, h = 423 centimeters.
Complete question :
The 100m dah times in the girl's track meet were normally distributed with a mean of 13 seconds and a standard deviation of 0.3 seconds.
Lana finished the race in 13.2 seconds . If 84 other girls ran in the event, approximately how many runners did she beat?
Answer:
21 runners
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean, μ = 13 seconds
Standard deviation, σ = 0.3
Lana's race time = 13.2
We find the proportion of runners who had race time above 13.2 ;
Proportion of who had race tune above 13.2
P(x > 13.2)
Obtain the Zscore
Zscore = (x - μ) / σ
Z = (13.2 - 13) / 0.3
Zscore = 0.2 / 0.3 = 0.6667
P(Z > 0.6667) = 0.25239 (Z probability calculator)
This is about 0.25239 * 100 = 25.24% = 25% (nearest percent)
Hence, Number of runners Lana beat = 25% of total runners ;
0.25 * 84 = 21
Hence, Lana beat about 21 runners
Answer: B 2
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the graph, you can see it goes up every hour by 2.
So therefore your answer will be 2.
Hope this helps!

Do the reciprocal!
7 5
12 2
And just multiply and you get 35/24
Answer:
y=
Step-by-step explanation:
Because of the slope, we would assume that it is 1/2 because when you use rise over run, the graph rises 1 unit up and shifts 2 units to the right. The -2 is where the y-intercept is (0, -2) based on the picture seen above. The slope is also positive where it is going up instead of going down.
