Svetllana [295]

Answer:

3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A 12-foot ladder is leaning across a fence and is touching a higher wall located 3 feet behind the fence. The ladder makes an angle of 60 degrees with the ground.

ladder is 12 foot

The ladder makes an angle of 60 degrees with the ground.

It form a right angle triangle . ladder is the hypotenuse

$cos(60)=\frac{x}{12}$

$0.5= \frac{x}{12}$

multiply 12 on both sides

x= 6

the distance from the base of the ladder to the bottom of the fence

x-3 = 6-3=3 feet

Jones assembles 200 relays in the same time that Smith assembles 180. When Jones has completed 300 relays, how many will Smith h

Finger [1]

Answer:

270

Step-by-step explanation:

Jones turns out 200 relays to Smith's 180. You set up that basic ratio and make a proportion out of it.

S/J = 180/200

Now you make your proportion

S/J = x/300

But the 2 ratios much remain the same.

180/200 = x / 300 Multiply both sides by 300

180*300/200 = x Multiply the numerator together.

54000/200 = x Do the division

270 = x

Smith will have turned out 270 relays.

On Monday, it snowed 30 inches in 16 hours. On Thursday, it snowed 21 inches in 6 hours. On which day did it snow at a greater r

nevsk [136]

Answer: Thursday

Step-by-step explanation:

I think this answer is correct because, On Monday it says it snowed 30 inches for 16 hours, so we divide 30 by 16 and we get 1.875. But for Thursday it snowed 21 for 6 hours, so we divide 21 by 6 and that equals 3.5. So on Monday it snowed 1.875 snow per hour and Thursday it snowed 3.5 snow per hour. So the answer is Thursay!

A plant manufactures part whose lengths are normally distributed with a mean of 16.3 centimeters and a standard deviation of 2.5

EastWind [94]

The probability that the plant manufactures a part between 10.8 and 12.8 centimeters 13%

<h3>How to find the probability that the part is between 10.8 and 12.8 centimeters</h3>

The probability is solved z scores, this measures the amount of standard deviation sample X is from mean. the formula is below

z = (X - μ) / σ

<u>Definition of variables</u>

mean, μ = 16.3 centimeters

standard deviation, σ = 2.5 centimeters

X = 10.8 and 12.8 centimeters

z score, z

substituting into the formula

for X = 12.8 centimeters

= (X - μ) / σ

= (12.8 - 16.3) / 2.5

= -1.4

the p value for z of -1.4 = 0.161513

for X = 10.8 centimeters

= (X - μ) / σ

= (10.8 - 16.3) / 2.5

= -2.2

the p value for z of -2.2 = 0.027807

the probability is calculated as below

0.161513 - 0.027807= 0.133706

= 0.13

=13%
