Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When equal bases are multiplied, the powers add.
The bases of both expressions is x.
The powers are 5 and 7.
The answer is x^(5 + 7) = x^(12)

Answer:
- cable length: 300.2 ft
- anchor distance: 193.0 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The side given is opposite the given angle. We want to find both the hypotenuse and the adjacent side in the right triangle that models the geometry.
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
sin(50°) = (230 ft)/h
h = (230 ft)/sin(50°) ≈ 300.24 ft
The length of the cable must be about 300.2 feet.
__
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(50°) = (230 ft)/d
d = (230 ft)/tan(50°) ≈ 192.99 ft
The cable must be anchored about 193.0 ft from the tower.
Memorize the definition of standard deviation: the sd is the square root of the average of the squared deviations of the mean. Wow. Let's do it.
Step 1. First we need the mean. That's easy. Add them up and divide by the count. Check if you get 16.88/5 = 2.81333.
Step 2. Now we're going to subtract this from each of the values, and square the result. Don't worry about negative signs, the squaring will get rid of those. Example for the first number:
(1 - 2.813)^2 = 3.29
The list of numbers I get is (rounded, in reality round as little as possible):
3.29, 2.60, 1.41, 2.35, 1.66, 6.18
Step 3: Add them all up. I get 17.49.
Step 4: Divide by the count of numbers. 17.49/6 = 2.91
Step 5: Take the square root from this result. SQRT(2.91) = 1.707305
TIP: Use excel to do all these steps, then run the set of numbers through Excel's built-in sd function (called STDEV.P) and see that you get the same result!
Answer:
The angle for each slice is 45 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to calculate the angle of each slice, we first need to calculate the total area of the pizza, because we will use that to find the area of each slice and as a result it's angle. To calculate the area of the pizza we must use:
pizza area = pi*r²
r = d / 2 = 14 /2 = 7 inches
pizza area = pi*(7)² = 153.86 square inches
Since the pizza was divided in 8 pieces, the area of each piece is given by the area of the pizza divided by the number of slices. We have:
slice area = pizza area / 8 = 153.86 / 8 =19.2325 square inches
Each slice is a circle sector, therefore it's area is given by:
slice area = (angle*pi*r²)/360
Therefore we can solve for angle:
19.2325 = (angle*pi*7²)/360
angle*pi*49 = 6923.7
angle = 6923.7 / pi*49 = 45 degrees
The angle for each slice is 45 degrees.
