Answer:

164 Yards

Step-by-step explanation:

With the information in this problem, we need to assume that triangle ADE and ABC are similar, otherwise we would not have enough information to solve it.

1. AE/DE=AC/BC (Since the triangles are similar, the corresponding parts will have the same ratio. In other words, you should be able to multiply the length of any side in one triangle by the same number and get a side length of the similar triangle.)

2. AE/DE=(AE+EC)/BC (Rewrite side length AC as the sum of its parts)

3. 230/120=(230+85)/BC (Insert the values given for each side length into the equation)

4. 230/120=315/BC (Add 230 and 85)

5. 230*BC=315*120 (Cross multiply)

6. BC=315*120/230 (Divide each side by 230 to isolate BC)

7. BC=164.347826... (Plug the equation into a calculator)

8. BC=164 (Since the problem asks to round to the nearest yard and the number in the tenths place is below 5, round your answer down to 164)

btw definitely ignore that guy posting links

please lmk if i made any errors, hope this helps!!!

A ball is kicked upward with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second. The ball's height, h (in feet), from the ground is model

stellarik [79]

Answer:

1. t = 0.995 s

2. h = 15.92 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to look at the following formula

Vf = Vo + gt

then we work it to clear what we want

Vo + gt = Vf

gt = Vf - Vo

t = (Vf-Vo)/g

Now we have to complete the formula with the real data

Vo = 32 ft/s as the statement says

Vf = 0 because when it reaches its maximum point it will stop before starting to lower

g = -32,16 ft/s² it is a known constant, that we use it with the negative sign because it is in the opposite direction to ours

t = (0 ft/s - 32 ft/s) / -32,16 ft/s²

we solve and ...

t = 0.995 s

Now we will implement this result in the following formula to get the height at that time

h = (Vo - Vf) *t /2

h = (32 ft/s - 0 ft/s) * 0.995 s / 2

h = 32 ft/s * 0.995 s/2

h = 31.84 ft / 2

h = 15.92 ft

The distribution of blood cholesterol level in the

qaws [65]

Answer: A. Mean of sampling means $=\mu=168\ Mg/dl$

Standard deviation of sampling means = $2.86\ mg/dl$

B. The probability that your sample has mean less than 165 is 0.1492 .

Given : The distribution of blood cholesterol level in the

population of young men aged 20 to 34 years is close to normal with

mean $\mu= 168$ Mg/dl and standard deviation $\sigma= 35$ mg/dl.

Sample size : n= 150

Let $\overline{x}$ sample mean values.

A. The mean and the standard deviation of the distribution of the sampling means would be :

Mean of sampling means = $\mu=168\ Mg/dl$

Standard deviation of sampling means = $\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{35}{\sqrt{150}}$

$=\dfrac{35}{12.2474487}\\\\=2.85773803649\approx2.86\ mg/dl$

The probability that your sample has mean less than 165 would be

$P(\overline{x}$

Hence , the probability that your sample has mean less than 165 is 0.1492 .

Solve the exponential function 3 to the x-5 = 9

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

$3^{x - 5} = 9$

$3^{x - 5} = 3^2$

$x - 5 = 2$
