Janeel has a 10-inch by 12-inch photograph. She wants to scan the photograph, then reduce the result

Vaselesa [24]

<u>Complete Question:</u>

Janeel has a 10 inch by 12 inch photograph. She wants to scan the photograph, then reduce the results by the same amount in each dimension to post on her Web site. Janeel wants the area of the image to be one eight of the original photograph. Write an equation to represent the area of the reduced image. Find the dimensions of the reduced image.

<u>Correct Answer:</u>

A) $(10-x)(12-x)=15$

B) Dimensions are : Length = 10-x = 3 inch , Breadth = 12-x = 5 inch

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

a. Write an equation to represent the area of the reduced image.

Let the reduced dimensions is by x , So the new dimensions are

$length=10-x\\breadth=12-x$

According to question , Area of new image is :

⇒ $Area = \frac{1}{8}Length(breadth)$

⇒ $Area = \frac{1}{8}(10)(12)$

⇒ $Area = 15$

So the equation will be :

⇒ $(10-x)(12-x)=15$

b. Find the dimensions of the reduced image

Let's solve : $(10-x)(12-x)=15$

⇒ $120-10x-12x+x^2=15$

⇒ $120-22x+x^2=15$

⇒ $x^2-22x+105=0$

By Quadratic formula :

⇒ $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

⇒ $x = \frac{22 \pm8 }{2}$

⇒ $x = \frac{22 +8 }{2} , x = \frac{22 -8 }{2}$

⇒ $x = 15 , x =7$

x = 15 is rejected ! as 15 > 10 ! Side can't be negative

⇒ $x =7$

Therefore, Dimensions are : Length = 10-x = 3 inch , Breadth = 12-x = 5 inch

A polling organization announces that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent, with

kvasek [131]

Answer:

We are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.

Step-by-step explanation:

95 % confidence means that we are 95 % confident that the the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent.

95 % confidence means that of all the sample about 95 % values are within in the given range.

And only 5% sample are not included in the given parameter.

Margin of error is the amount of miscalculation or difference in change of circumstances from the obtained data.

3% margin of error usually occurs when the data size is small.

As the data size increases the margin of error decreases.

So this statement tells us that we are 95% confident that the proportion of American voters who favor congressional term limits is 64 percent with a difference of 3% for small sample size.

Margin of error= z *σ/√n→

This indicates that as the sample size decreases the margin of error increases and vice versa.

A cylindrical piece of iron pipe is shown below. The wall of the pipe is 0.75 inch thick, and the pipe is open at both ends:

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

(A)398 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a cylindrical piece of iron pipe with the following dimensions:

Height = 12 inches
Diameter = 8 inches

Therefore: External radius =4 Inches

Since the wall of the pipe is 0.75 inch thick,

Internal Radius =4-0.75 =3.25 Inches

Volume of a Cylinder = $\pi r^2 h$

Inside Volume of the Pipe

$= \pi*3.25^2*12\\=398$ cubic inches$

The correct option is A.

Es 18 de junio de 1815, las tropas napoleónicas se encuentran justo adelante, tu eres el ingeniero en balística y el general Wel

Airida [17]

Answer:

89.1° or -1.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Location:

You are on the Mont-Saint-Jean escarpment, near the Belgian town of Waterloo.

The French troops are about 50 m below you and 1.2 km distant.

2. Finding the firing angle

Data:

R = 1200 m

u = 600 m/s

h = -50 m (the height of the target)

a = 9.8 m/s²

We have two conditions.

Horizontal distance

(1) 1200 = 600t cosθ

Vertical distance

(2) -50 = 600t sinθ - 4.9t²

Divide each side of (1) by 600cosθ.

$(3) \, t =\dfrac{2}{\cos \theta}$

Substitute (3) into (2)

$-50 = 600t \sin \theta - 4.9t^{2} = 600 \left( \dfrac{2}{\cos \theta} \right ) \sin \theta - 4.9 \left( \dfrac{2}{\cos \theta} \right )^{2}\\\\(4) \, -50 = 1200 \tan \theta - \dfrac{19.6}{\cos^{2} \theta}$

Recall that

(5) sec²θ = 1/cos²θ = tan²θ + 1

Substitute (5) into (4)

$-50 = 1200 \tan \theta - 19.6 \left(\tan^{2} \theta}+ 1\right )$

Set up a quadratic equation

$\begin{array}{rcl}-50 & = & 1200 \tan \theta - 19.6\tan^{2} \theta -19.6 \\0 & = & 1200 \tan \theta - 19.6\tan^{2} \theta + 30.4\\0 & =&19.6\tan^{2} \theta - 1200 \tan \theta - 30.4\\0 & =&\tan^{2} \theta - 61.224 \tan \theta - 1.551\\\end{array}$

Solve for θ

Use the quadratic formula.

tanθ = 61.249 or -0.025

θ = arctan(61.249) = 89.1° or

θ = arctan(-0.025) = -1.4°
