Let us say that x is the real height of the original hut, therefore we can establish the equation:

5 : x = 1.5 : 8

5 / x = 1.5 / 8

 

Solving for x:

x = 5 * 8 / 1.5

x = 40 / 1.5

<span>x = 26.67 ft</span>

Without computing, determine which number is greater, [(-4)^4]^5 or -[(4^12)^3 Explain your reasoning.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

I think [(-4)^4]^5, but I'm not completely sure

Step-by-step explanation:

1.0995116e+12 greater than -4.7223665e+21

[(-4)^4]^5=1.0995116e+12

-[(4^12)^3=-4.7223665e+21

Find P(A or B) if the events are disjointed. P(A) =6/25 , and P(B) =9/25 .
nevsk [136]
Here, "disjointed" signifiies that Event A and Event B are independent; neither outcome influences the other.  In such a case, the union of A and B is given by the sum of the two probabilities P(A) and P(B).

Here, that sum is P(A or B) = 6/25 + 9/25, or 15/25, or 0.6.

Find two numbers the quotient between. Then estimate the quotient. 41÷3
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The quotient is between 10 and 15, and the exact answer is 13 with the remainder of 2: 13R2.

Step-by-step explanation:

41 ÷ 3 is a very long answer so do 39 ÷ 3 which equals 13 and since you can't divide 2 by three without negatives, just do it as a remainder of 2, or R2, which means the answer is 13 with the remainder of 2, or just 13R2.

Use the Distance Formula to find the distance between (13, 1) and (9,- 4), rounded to the nearest hundredth.
valina [46]

Answer:

  about 6.40 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is ...

  d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)

For the given points, the distance between them is ...

  d = √((9 -13)^2 +(-4-1)^2) = √((-4)^2 +(-5)^2) = √(16 +25)

  d = √41 ≈ 6.40

The distance between the points is about 6.40 units.
