Answer:

9.83cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are not asked what to look for. We can find the height of the wall.

Let the height of the wall be H

Given

Length of the ladder l = 12fot

Angle of elevation = 55degrees

Required

Height of wall H

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

SIn theta = opp/hyp

Sin 55 = H/12

H - 12sin55

H = 12(0.8192)

H = 9.83cm

Hence the height of the ladder is 9.83cm

Which equation describes a line parallel to y= 4x+ 5 through point (-2, 1)?​
Keith_Richards [23]

The line parallel to y= 4x+ 5 passing through point (-2, 1) is y = 4x + 9

<h3>Parallel Equations</h3>

The given equation is:

y = 4x + 5

Compare y = 4x + 5 with the equation y = mx + c

m = 4, c = 5

The equation parallel to y = 4x + 5 will also have a slope, m = 4

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is given as:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

substitute m = 4, x₁ = -2 and y = 1 into the equation above

y - 1 = 4(x - (-2)

y - 1 = 4(x + 2)

y - 1 = 4x + 8

y = 4x + 8 + 1

y = 4x + 9

Therefore the line parallel to y= 4x+ 5 passing through point (-2, 1) is y = 4x + 9

EASY 5 POINTS!!! A spherical ball just fits inside a cylindrical can, 16 centimeters tall, with a diameter of 16 centimeters. Wh
valkas [14]

formula for volume of a sphere is V=4/3 x pi x R63

if diameter = 16 than radius = 16/2 = 8

 so the equation would be 4/3 x pi x 8^3

A certain car model has a mean gas mileage of 34 miles per gallon (mpg) with a standard deviation A pizza delivery company buys
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

z =\frac{33.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= -1.028

z =\frac{34.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= 0.441

An we can use the normal standard table and the following difference and we got this result:

P(-1.028

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this statement to complete the problem "with a standard deviation 5 mpg"

We have the following info given:

\mu = 34 represent the mean

\sigma= 5 represent the deviation

We have a sample size of n = 54 and we want to find this probability:

P(33.3 < \bar X< 34.3)

And for this case since the sample size is large enough >30 we can apply the central limit theorem and then we can use this distribution:

\bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And replacing we got:

z =\frac{33.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= -1.028

z =\frac{34.3- 34}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{54}}}= 0.441

An we can use the normal standard table and the following difference and we got this result:

P(-1.028

Find the volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 10 inches and height of 20in
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

V = 500 pi in^3

or approximately 1570 in ^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by

V = pi r^2 h  where r is  the radius and h is the height

The diameter is 10. so the radius is d/2 = 10/2 =5

V = pi (5)^2 * 20

V = pi *25*20

V = 500 pi in^3

We can approximate pi by 3.14

V = 3.14 * 500

V = 1570 in ^3
