Answer:

Converting the equation $x^2-20x+13=0$ into completing the square method we get: $\mathbf{(x-10)^2=87}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given quadratic equation: $x^2-20x+13=0$

And we need to convert it into completing the square method.

Completing the square method is of form: $a^2-2ab+b^2=(a-b)^2$

Looking at the given equation $x^2-20x+13=0$

We have a = x

then we have middle term 20x that can be written in form of 2ab So, we have a=x and b=? Multiplying 10 with 2 we get 20 so, we can say that b = 20

So, 20x in form of 2ab can be written as: 2(x)(10)

So, we need to add and subtract (10)^2 on both sides

$x^2-20x+13=0\\x^2-2(x)(10)+(10)^2-(10)^2+13=0\\(x^2-2(x)(10)+(10)^2) \:can\: be\: written\: as\: (x-10)^2 \\(x-10)^2-100+13=0\\(x-10)^2-87=0\\(x-10)^2=87$

So, converting the equation $x^2-20x+13=0$ into completing the square method we get: $\mathbf{(x-10)^2=87}$

An icicle with a diameter of 15.5 centimeters at the top, tapers down in the shape of a cone with a length of

Helga [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: I will leave the answers as fraction and in terms of pi unless the question states rounding conditions to ensure maximum precision.

From the question, we can tell it is a inversed-cone (upside down)

Volume of Cone = $\pi r^{2} \frac{h}{3}$

a) Given Diameter , d = 15.5cm and Length , h = 350cm,

we first find the radius.

$r = \frac{d}{2} \\=\frac{15.5}{2} \\=7.75cm$

We will now find the volume of the cone.

Volume of cone $\pi (7.75)^{2} \frac{350}{3} \\= \frac{168175\pi }{24}$

We know the density of ice is 0.93 grams per $1cm^{3}$

$1cm^{3} =0.93g\\\frac{168175\pi }{24} cm^{3} =0.93(\frac{168175\pi }{24} )\\= 20473 g$ (Nearest Gram)

b) After 1 hour, we know that the new radius = 7.75cm - 0.35cm = 7.4cm

and the new length, h = 350cm - 15cm = 335cm

Now we will find the volume of this newly-shaped cone.

Volume of cone = $\pi (7.4)^{2} \frac{335}{3} \\= \frac{91723\pi }{15} cm^{3}$

Volume of cone being melted = New Volume - Original volume

= $\frac{168175\pi }{24} -\frac{91723\pi }{15} \\= \frac{35697\pi }{40} cm^{3}$

c) Lets take the bucket as a round cylinder.

Given radius of bucket, r = 12.5cm (Half of Diameter) and h , height = 30cm.

Volume of cylinder = $\pi r^{2} h\\=\pi (12.5)^{2} (30)\\=\frac{9375\pi }{2} cm^{3}$

To overflow the bucket, the volume of ice melted must be more than the bucket volume.

Volume of ice melted after 5 hours = $5(\frac{35697\pi }{40} )\\=\frac{35697\pi }{8} cm^{3}$

See, from here of course you are unable to tell whether the bucket will overflow as all are in fractions, but fret not, we can just find the difference.

Volume of bucket - Volume of ice melted after 5 hours

= $\frac{9375\pi }{2} -\frac{35697\pi }{8 } \\=\frac{1803\pi }{8}cm^{3}$

from we can see the bucket can still hold more melted ice even after 5 hours therefore it will not overflow.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

While working at his neighborhood math tutoring center researching the comprehension level of the students Dion investigated that the distribution of the student test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 79.13 and a standard deviation of 6.34. What is the probability that the student scores less than 60.11

We solve using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

z = 60.11 - 79.13/6.34
