Answer:

19.209 miles from each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

{a}^{2}  +  {b}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}

Using this we get:

{15}^{2}  +  {12}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}

225 + 144 = 369 =  {x}^{2}

\sqrt{369 }  = 19.209

in a square garden plot (with an area of 400 sq ft)deer fencing priced at $1.50 per foot is to be installed around the plot. if
mina [271]

We have a square garden of 400 square foot.

The area of a square is:

A=x^2

where x: side length.

In this case:

\begin{gathered} A=400=x^2 \\ x=\sqrt[]{400}=20\text{ ft} \end{gathered}

The perimeter of the square is the sum of the lengths of the sides of the square. As they are all equal, we can write:

P=4x=4\cdot20=80\text{ ft}

The fencing is priced at $1.50 per foot. If we add the 7% sales tax to this price we get:

C=1.50\cdot(1+0.07)=1.50\cdot1.07=1.605\text{ \$/ft}

The fencing will be installed in all the perimeter (80 ft).

We can calculate the total cost by multiplying the sales price ($1.605 per foot) and the perimeter (80 ft):

F=C\cdot P=1.605\frac{\text{\$}}{\text{ft}}\cdot80\text{ ft}=\$128.40

Answer: the fencing will cost a total of $128.40

A worn, poorly set-up machine is observed to produce components whose length X follows a normal distribution with mean 14 centim
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

74.86% probability that a component is at least 12 centimeters long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 14

Variance is 9.

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

So

\sigma = \sqrt{9} = 3

Calculate the probability that a component is at least 12 centimeters long.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 12. So

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

Z = \frac{12 - 14}{3}

Z = -0.67

Z = -0.67 has a pvalue of 0.2514.

1-0.2514 = 0.7486

74.86% probability that a component is at least 12 centimeters long.

The length of a rectangle solid is 3.0 m the width is 0.6 meter, and the height is 0.4 meter. Find, to the nearest tenth, the nu
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

0.72\,\,m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of a rectangle solid = 3 m

Width of a rectangle solid = 0.6 m

Height of a rectangle solid = 0.4 m

To find: Volume of the solid

Solution:

Volume of the solid = length × breadth × height

=3\times 0.6\times 0.4=0.72\,\,m^3

So, the number of cubic meters in the volume of the solid is 0.72\,\,m^3
