Two similar pyramids have base edges 3 and 5. Find the following (use a colon between the numbers):

1 answer:

6 0

A) 3 : 5

b) 9 : 25

c) 3 : 5

d) 27 : 125

e) 9 : 25

Because the pyramids are similar, any lengths will have the same ratio, areas the ratios squared and volumes cubed.
(You do not need to know their exact shapes or the formulae for the areas or volume.)

To prepare for a triathlon, Amanda starts from position A and rides her bike along a straight road for 12 miles to reach positio

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's draw the given information first for better understanding . Check the image attached.

We can use cosine rule to find the angles .

for angle A ,

$Cos A =\frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}$

$Cos A =\frac{20^2+12^2-15^2}{2*20*12}$

$Cos A =\frac{319}{480}$

m∠A = 48.35 degrees

Similarly for angle B

$Cos B =\frac{a^2+c^2-b^2}{2bc}$

$Cos B =\frac{15^2+12^2-20^2}{2*15*12}$

$Cos B =\frac{-31}{360}$

m∠B = 94.94 degrees

Now use A+B+C=180 degrees

48.35+94.94+C=180

C=180-48.35-94.94

m∠C = 36.71 degrees

5) Two machines M1, M2 are used to manufacture resistors with a design

Basile [38]

Answer:

Since M1 has the higher probability of being in the desired range, we choose M1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Two machines M1, M2 are used to manufacture resistors with a design specification of 1000 ohm with 10% tolerance.

So we need the machines to be within 1000 - 0.1*1000 = 900 ohms and 1000 + 0.1*1000 = 1100 ohms.

For each machine, we need to find the probabilty of the machine being in this range. We choose the one with the higher probability.

M1:

Resistors of M1 are found to follow normal distribution with mean 1050 ohm and standard deviation of 100 ohm. This means that $\mu = 1050, \sigma = 100$
