Answer:

187 paving stones are needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Paving stone

Length = 1m; Width = 80cm

Compound

Length = 13.6cm; Width = 11m

Required

Number of wires to cover the compound

Area is calculated as:

Area = Length * Width

For the paving stone, we have:

A_1 =1m * 80cm

Convert cm to m

A_1 =1m * 0.80m

A_1 =0.8m^2

For the compound, we have:

A_2 = 13.6m * 11m

A_2 = 149.6m^2

Divide the area of the compound by the area of the paving stone

n = \frac{A_2}{A_1}

n = \frac{149.6}{0.8}

n = 187

A 24 foot ladder is placed against a building at an angle of 75⁰. How far is the bottom of the ladder from the building?
yanalaym [24]
24ft is the hypotenuse, at an angle of 75<span>⁰, and we need to find the adjacent.

We use cos(), which is adjacent divided by hypotenuse.

Therefore, we can find the adjacent by doing:

25 * cos(75) = 6.47ft

Round the answer however you like.</span>

Help!!!! I really need help with this I don’t understand it!!!
Temka [501]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a number of ways to get there, but the short of it is that a horizontal line has the equation ...

  y = constant

The constant value must be chosen to match the y-value of points on the line. Here, that is 5. The equation of the line is ...

  y = 5

_____

<em>Another way</em>

You can write the equation in slope-intercept form if you know the slope and the y-intercept. The line crosses the y-axis at y = 5, so that is the value of the y-intercept.

The "rise" between the two points is 5 -5 = 0. The "run" between the two points is 5-0 = 5, so the slope is ...

  m = rise/run = 0/5 = 0

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

  y = 0x +5

Simplifying, we get ...

  y = 5

Five bikers join a race. In how many possible ways can they be arranged as
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

60 different possibilities

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of bikers = 5

Positions = first, second and third

First positions = all 5 riders can take the first spot = 5 possibilities

Second spot = position 1 has been filled hence number of possibilities = ( 5 - 1) = 4

Third spot = position 1 and 2 has been filled ; number of possibilities =. (5 - 2). = 3

Number of possible arrangements :

5 * 4 * 3 = 60 different possibilities

What is the slope of the line on the graph?
Bogdan [553]
Answer: 1/2

When looking at a graph, you need to follow the formula rise/run. This means that between two points, you need to find the distance up and down/left and right.

Looking at points (0,2) and (2,3), I see that the second point is 1 point higher. Let’s add that in for rise.

Rise/run

1/run

Now for run. The second point is 2 points to the right of the first one. Let’s add that in.

1/2
