The triangle are congruent.
The one is 5 times longer on the base therefore the height is 5 times higher,
5x2 = 10m

Answer:

$425.6 should be budgeted for weekly repairs and maintenance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean $400 and standard deviation $20.

This means that \mu = 400, \sigma = 20

How much should be budgeted for weekly repairs and maintenance to provide that the probability the budgeted amount will be exceeded in a given week is only 0.1?

This is the 100 - 10 = 90th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.28 = \frac{X - 400}{20}

X - 400 = 20*1.28

X = 425.6

$425.6 should be budgeted for weekly repairs and maintenance.

Towers A and B are located 5 miles apart. A ranger spots a fire at a 42-degree angle from tower A. Another fire ranger spots the
lord [1]

Answer: The fire is 3.5 miles from tower B

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram. The triangle in the attached diagram illustrates the clues given in the question. Both rangers are standing at points A and B respectively with a distance of 5 miles between them, which is line AB. Also, one ranger spots a fire from a tower at an angle of 42 degrees, which is point A. Another ranger spots the same fire from another tower, but from an angle of 64 degrees, which is point B. The fire is at point C on the triangle. Now we have a triangle with only one side known (5 miles) and three angles known (the third angle is computed as 180 - {64+42} which equals 74) which are 64 degrees, 42 degrees and 74 degrees.

The distance from the fire to tower B is calculated using the law of sines. (Note that this is not a right angled triangle, hence we cannot use trigonometric ratios). The law of sines is expressed as follows;

a/SinA = b/SinB or

a/SinA = c/SinC

Depending on the sides and angles we are given and the ones we are to calculate.

The distance from the fire to tower B is line BC, labeled as a in our diagram. Using the law of sines

a/SinA = c/SinC

(Note also that a is directly facing angle A, c is directly facing angle C, and so on)

a/SinA = c/SinC

a/Sin 42 = 5/Sin 74

By cross multiplication we now have

a (Sin 74) = 5 (Sin 42)

Divide both sides of the equation by Sin 74 and we now arrive at

a = 5 (Sin 42)/Sin 74

a = 5 (0.6691)/0.9613

a = 3.3455/0.9613

a = 3.4802

{rounded to the nearest tenth of a mile, a equals 3.5}

Therefore the distance from tower B to the fire is approximately 3.5 miles

The side lengths of a triangle are given by the expressions 5x + 3, 5x – 5, and 3x – 2. Write and simplify a linear
rewona [7]

Answer:

The perimeter is P=13x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a triangle is the distance around its edges.

The given triangle has side lengths 5x + 3, 5x – 5, and 3x – 2.

The perimeter is : P=(5x+3)+(5x-5)+(3x-2)

Group similar terms to get:

P=5x+5x+3x+3-5-2

Combine the similar terms to get: P=13x-4

Hence the perimeter in terms of x is P=13x-4
