Answer:

you can use it in architecture and construction

Step-by-step explanation:

say you are building a sloped roof. If you know the height of the roof and the length for it to cover, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the diagonal length of the roof's slope. You can use this information to cut properly sized beams to support the roof, or calculate the area of the roof that you would need to shingle. I hope this helps!

stiks02 [169]

The answer to this question is 600-28w > 300. This inequality can be described as $600 (money in the savings account) subtracted by $28w (withdrawal of $28 a week for food) should be greater than $300. It proves that the money will not drop below $300.

Part 1: Use the information provided to write the standard form equation of each circle. Please show the work.

dusya [7]

Answer:

1. (x + 2)² + (y - 9)² = 64

2. (x + 6)² + (y - 9/2)² = 100

3. (x - 15)² + (y + 10)² = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a circle:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

1. Center: (-2, 9), Radius: 8

(x - (-2))² + (y - 9)² = 8²

(x + 2)² + (y - 9)² = 64

2. Center: (-6, 9/2), Radius: 10

(x - (-6))² + (y - (9/2))² = 10²

(x + 6)² + (y - 9/2)² = 100

3. Center: (15, -10), Radius: 1

(x - 15)² + (y - (-10))² = 1²

(x - 15)² + (y + 10)² = 1

Answer:

2800 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Each tile has an area of (0.05 m)² = 0.0025 m². Then the number of tiles required to cover 7 square meters is ...

(7 m²)/(0.0025 m²/tile) = 2800 tiles

It will take 2800 tiles to cover the entryway.

A new company is in the process of evaluating its customer service. The company offers two types of sales: (1) Internet sales an

iragen [17]

Answer:

$H_A: P_{\text{Internet}}-P_{\text{Store}} > 0.10$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let $P_{\text{Internet}}$ be the proportion of the internet sales and $P_{\text{Store}}$ be the proportion of the store sale.

Hypothesis:

We have to conduct a hypothesis to check that the Internet sales are more than 10 percent higher than store sales.

Thus, we can design the null and alternative hypothesis as:

$H_{0}: P_{\text{Internet}}-P_{\text{Store}}\leq 0.10\\H_A: P_{\text{Internet}}-P_{\text{Store}} > 0.10$

Alternate Hypothesis:

The alternate hypothesis states that the proportion of the internet sales is greater than the proportion of store sales by 10 percent.
