3 1/2 divided by 3/4

This monitor has a diagonal length of 19 inches and an aspect ratio of 5:4. What are the width and height of the monitor? Round

nasty-shy [4]

<em>Rounded to the nearest tenth of an inch the Witdth of the monitor is 14.8 inches while the Height of the monitor is 11.9 inches.</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

The aspect ratio is defined as:

<em>"The proportional relationship between the width and height of an image"</em>

It is usually expressed in a mathematical language as:

$x:y \\ \\ x: \ Width \\ \\ y: \ Height$

So, it is true that:

$x:y=5:4 \\ \\ or: \\ \\ \frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{4} \\ \\ \therefore x=\frac{5y}{4}$

In this case, we know that the monitor has a diagonal length (D):

$D=19in$

So, by Pythagorean theorem:

$D^2=361 \\ \\ 361=x^2+y^2 \\ \\ Since \ x=\frac{5y}{4}$

$D^2=361 \\ \\ 361=x^2+y^2 \\ \\ Since \ x=\frac{5y}{4} \\ \\ 361=\left(\frac{5y}{4}\right)^2+y^2 \\ \\ 361=\frac{25y^2}{16}+y^2 \\ \\ \frac{41}{16}y^2=361 \\ \\ y^2=\frac{261\times 16}{41} \\ \\ y=\sqrt{140.87} \\ \\ y=11.869in$

Finding x:

$x=\frac{5(11.869)}{4} \\ \\ x=14.836in$

<em>Finally, rounded to the nearest tenth of an inch the Witdth of the monitor is 14.8 inches while the Height of the monitor is 11.9 inches.</em>

Question 1

Scrat [10]

Answer:

17.11 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

You are using trigonometry in this problem.

The height of the flagpole represents the side <u><em>opposite</em></u> the given angle.

The base of the triangle is given as 19 meters and represents the side <u><em>adjacent</em></u> to the given angle.

Out of the main trigonomentric functions (sine, cosine, and tangent), only tangent uses both the opposite and adjacent sides.

Tan(angle) = opposite / adjacent

If we plug in what we know into that equation: <em>tan(42 degrees) = h / 19</em>

This means that <em>your answer = 19 * tan(42) = 17.11</em> meters

Over 6 days jim jogged 6.5 miles 5 miles 3 miles 2 miles 3.5 miles and 4 miles what is the mean distance that jim jogged each da

soldi70 [24.7K]

In order to identify the mean distance jogged by Jim for 6 days, we add up all of the distances and divide the sum by 6. That is,
sum = 6.5 + 5 + 3 + 2 + 3.5 + 4 miles
sum = 24 miles
Dividing the sum by 6 will give us an answer of 4 miles. Thus, Jim jogged an average of 4 miles for 6 days.

Suppose that you need to create a list of n values that have a specific known mean. Some of the n values can be freely selected.

Leno4ka [110]

As the problem indicates, degrees of freedom are the number of values that can be independently selected before it is necessary to choose specific values to arrive at the desired result.

The average, on the other hand, results from the sum of a list of values divided by the amount of values in the summed list.

Assume that the mean sought is $x$ and consider that the list is composed of a single element $a$ , in that case no random number can be selected, since the mean $x$ must correspond to that number.

If the list were composed of two elements $a$ and $b$ , one of the two values could be chosen randomly, and according to the chosen value the second should be the one whose sum with the previous one results in $2x$ , this given that the formula of the average $\sum\limits_{i=1}^n \frac{ x_{i}}{n}$ .

With three values $a$ , $b$ and $c$ , it is possible to select two freely, since the thirteen must be the one that balances the sum of $a+b$ , that is $(a + b) + c = 3x$ .

Thus, in general, with n values, it is possible to select $n-1$ values freely whose sum must be balanced by the last value so that the whole sum is $nx$ .
