How high is the end of the ladder against the building?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

its a right triangle, so we can use the pythagorean theorem to find h

(pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2, c is the hypotenuse)

h^2+4^2=13^2

h^2+16=169

h^2=153

h=sqrt153

h≈ 12.4ft

What is the quotient StartFraction 15 p Superscript negative 4 Baseline q Superscript negative 6 Baseline Over negative 20 p Sup
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

- \frac{3}{4} \times  \frac{p^{8} }{q^{3} }

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the quotient of the following division, \frac{15p^{-4}q^{-6} }{- 20p^{-12} q^{-3}}.

Now, \frac{15p^{-4}q^{-6} }{- 20p^{-12} q^{-3}}

= - \frac{3}{4} p^{[- 4 - (- 12)]} q^{[-6 - (- 3)]} {Since all the terms in the expression are in product form, so we can treat them separately}

{Since we know the property of exponent as \frac{a^{b} }{a^{c} } = a^{(b - c)}}

= - \frac{3}{4} p^{8} q^{-3}

= - \frac{3}{4} \times  \frac{p^{8} }{q^{3} } (Answer)

{Since we know, a^{-b} = \frac{1}{a^{b} }}

Suppose the standard deviation of a normal population is known to be 3, and H0 asserts that the mean is equal to 12. A random sa
blagie [28]

Answer:

z=\frac{12.95-12}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{36}}}=1.9  

p_v =P(z>1.9)=0.0287  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 12 at 5% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=12.95 represent the sample mean

\sigma=3 represent the population standard deviation for the sample  

n=36 sample size  

\mu_o =12 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal to 12, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 12  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 12  

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

z=\frac{12.95-12}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{36}}}=1.9  

P-value  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>1.9)=0.0287  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 12 at 5% of signficance.

2) Lisa is ordering sand from the Internet, On one site she found sand on sale for
Anastasy [175]

For this case we must find the unit cost (dollars per pound) of each site and then compare.

We take into account that:

1kg equals 2.205 pounds

So, we have:

Site 1:

C = 2.25 \frac {dollars} {pound}

Site 2:

5kg = 5 (2.205\ pounds) = 11.025 pounds

So, the unit cost is:

C = \frac {14} {11.025} \frac {dollars} {pound} = 1.27 \frac {dollars} {pound}

Thus, the best deal is on site 2.

ANswer:

The best deal is on site 2.
