Answer:

Divide the volume of the tank (10,000 gallons) by the filling rate of 250 gallons/minute and you will Hours = hr x min x 3785 ml x 55 gal = 208175 = 115.6 hrs.

Question:

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

part A) The scale factor of the sides (small to large) is 1/2

part B) Te ratio of the areas (small to large) is 1/4

part C) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Determine the scale factor of the sides (small to large).

we know that

The dilation is a non rigid transformation that produce similar figures

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

Let

z ----> the scale factor

$\frac{CB}{C'B'}=\frac{CD}{C'D'}=\frac{BD}{B'D'}$

The scale factor is equal to

$z=\frac{CB}{C'B'}$

substitute

$z=\frac{4}{8}$

simplify

$z=\frac{1}{2}$

Part B) What is the ratio of the areas (small to large)?

Area of the small triangle

$A=\frac{1}{2}(2)(4)=4\ units^2$

Area of the large triangle

$A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(8)=16\ units^2$

ratio of the areas (small to large)

$ratio=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{1}{4}$

Part C) Write a generalization about the ratio of the sides and the ratio of the areas of similar figures

In similar figures the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

In similar figures the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

The smallest square number which can be divisible by 11 and 5

Elena L [17]

Answer:

3025

Step-by-step explanation:

let's look at it in this concept.

For a number to be divisible by 11 and 5. it must be a multiple of the LCM of 11 and 5.

LCM of 11 and 5=55

therefore the number is 55x, where x is a positive integer.

it is a said that the number is a perfect square

therefore the square root of 55x must be an integer.

$\sqrt{55x} = \sqrt{5 \times 11 \times x}$

the smallest value of x to make 55x a perfect square is....

$x = 11 \times 5 = 55$

Therefore the number is.... .

$55x = 55(55) = 3025$

sweet right

HELP The minute hand of a clock is 5 inches long. to the the nearest tenth of an inch, how far does the tip of the minute hand t

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

18.326 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is basically asking us to find the arc length that the tip of the minute hand travels. The formula for an arc length is S=θr. So we need th find the angle that the minute hand passes through. We know that there is 360 degrees in a cicle and there is 12 stops around a clock, so divide 360 by 12 to find the degrees the minute hand travels every 5 minutes. We ge that every 5 minutes the hand travels 30 degrees, and 35 minutes is 7*5 so we multiple 30*7 to find the angular displacement, and we get 210 degrees. This equation uses radians though so we have to convert, which can be done doing $\frac{210}{1} *\frac{\pi }{180}$ , and we ge that θ is $\frac{7\pi }{6}$ so ( $\frac{7\pi }{6}$ )(5)= 18.326 inches

A geologist examines 14 geological samples for iron concentration. The mean iron concentration for the sample data is 0.181 cc/c

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the population mean iron concentration is between 0.167 cc/m³ and 0.195 cc/m³.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.05 = 0.95$ , so $z = 1.645$

Now, find M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 1.645*\frac{0.0318}{\sqrt{14}} = 0.0140$

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 0.181 - 0.0140 = 0.167 cc/m³.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 0.181 + 0.0140 = 0.195 cc/m³.

The 90% confidence interval for the population mean iron concentration is between 0.167 cc/m³ and 0.195 cc/m³.
