Q.The rectangular front windshield of the bus has the length of 1.5√3 m and the width of 1.5 m . The wipers are attached to the

bottom corners. If the length of each wiper is equal to the width of the windshield, find the percentage of the windshield that wipers can reach.

Answer:

Area covered by wiper=area of arc(A0D)+area of traingleAOB+area of arc(BOC)

We know AO and OB are wipers,whose lengths are 1.5

In ∆ABC

AB^2+BC^2=AC^2

(1.5√3)^2+(1.5)^2=(AC)^2

2.25×3+2.25=(AC)^2

2.25×4=AC^2

AC=3

Also AO=1.5

similarly using Pythagoras theorem in ∆OBC

we get

OC=1.5

this shows that point O is the bisector of diagonal AC

so,AO=OC

also from property of rectangle we know that, diagonal bisects each other equally

so,O will also be the bisector of diagonal BD

hence OB=OD=1.5

AC=BD (property of triangle)

AC/2=BD/2

OB=OC,hence OB=OC=OD=OA=1.5=AD=BC

Hence OAD will be an equilateral triangle

so

angle OAD=60

similarly angleOBC=60

area of sector=angle of that sector ×area of circle/360

area of arc(AOD)+arc(BOC)=60/360 ×3.14 ×1.5×1.5 +60/360 ×3.14×1.5×1.5

=2×(60/360)×1.5×1.5

area of triangleAOB=area of rectangle/4 (diagonal divides the rectangle in 4 equal parts)

area of triangle=1.5×1.5√3/4

=>1.5×2.6/4=3.90/4

=0.975 or 0.98(approx)

Area covered by wiper=.98+2×60/360 ×3.14×1.5×1.5

=.98+0.75×3.14=2.35+0.97

=2.35+.98

Percentage of area of windshield covered by wiper=3.3×100/3.9=84.61

hence percentage of area of windshield covered by wiper is 85percent(approx)

A store has a total of 15 bicycles and tricycles. There are 37 wheels. How many tricycles does the store have?
Vlad1618 [11]
X+y=15
2x+3y=37

15-x=y
2x+3(15-x)=37
2x+(45-3x)=37
2x-3x+45=37
-1x=-8
x=8

x is the amount of bikes, so there are 8 bikes. 8x2=16.
37-16=21
21/3=7

There are 7 tricycles.

Convert the following statement using an "if-then" structure.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

  D. If John owns a dog, then he owns a cat

Step-by-step explanation:

The implication p → q (if p, then q) has the same truth table as the logical expression ~p∨q. You have the expression ...

  ~(John owns a dog) ∨ (he owns a cat)

Matching parts of this expression to the components of the expression ~p∨q, we see we can choose ...

  • p = John owns a dog
  • q = he owns a cat

and put those into the structure of the implication: if p, then q.

  If John owns a dog, then he owns a cat. . . . . matches choice D

The time (in minutes) taken for a dose of a certain drug to be effective as a sedative on lab animals is normally distributed wi
Anni [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the time (in minutes) taken for a dose of a certain drug to be effective as a sedative on lab animals. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 1

σ = √variance = √0.01 = 0.1

the probability that the time taken for a randomly selected animal is between 1 and 1.1 minutes is expressed as

P(1 ≤ x ≤ 1.1)

For x = 1,

z = (1 - 1)/0.1 = 0

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.5

For x = 1.1

z = (1.1 - 1)/0.1 = 1

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.84

Therefore,

P(1 ≤ x ≤ 1.1) = 0.84 - 0.5 = 0.34

The the proportion of animals for which the time taken is between 1 and 1.1 minutes is 0.34
