Answer:

$V =\frac{12}{5}\ cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Volume of Rectangular Prism</u>

Given a rectangular prism of dimensions W, L, and H, its volume is the product of the three dimensions:

V = WLH

The figure shows the dimensions:

L=3 cm

$W=\frac{4}{3}\ cm$

$H=\frac{3}{5}\ cm$

Thus, the volume is:

$V =3*\frac{4}{3}*\frac{3}{5}\ cm^3$

$V =\frac{36}{15}\ cm^3$

Simplifying:

$\boxed{V =\frac{12}{5}\ cm^3}$

Based only on the information given in the diagram, which congruence

romanna [79]

<h3>1 Answer: Choice D) SAS</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

LA stands for Leg Angle. More specifically, the angle is an acute angle. This theorem only works for right triangles. We see that ED = LK which is one pair of congruent leg segments. So that takes care of the L part of LA. However, we don't know anything about the acute angles. We don't know if angle E = angle L, or if angle F = angle M, or something along those lines. We need angle markers to tell us or not.

In short, we only have half the info needed for LA, so we must cross choice A off the list.

----------------

HA stands for hypotenuse angle, or hypotenuse acute angle, and this rule only applies for right triangles. We don't know anything about the hypotenuse lengths if they are the same or not.

Similar to choice A, we don't know anything about the acute angles either.

Those two facts mean we must cross off choice B.

----------------

AAS stands for Angle Angle Side. The order is important because the side is not between the angles. The diagram only shows one pair of angles that are congruent to one another. That pair being the 90 degree angles indicated with the square marker. We don't have another pair of angles, so we cannot use AAS.

Cross choice C off the list.

-----------------

We can use SAS because we have two pairs of congruent sides and one pair of congruent angles.

The congruent sides are

ED = LK (double tickmarks)
DF = KM (single tickmarks)

That takes care of the two "S"s of "SAS". The "A" would be those two right angles which are congruent to one another. The angles are between the congruent sides which is important. Recall that SSA is not a valid congruence theorem.

So that's why choice D is the only answer.

-----------------

Side note: We could use the LL theorem, where L stands for leg, since we are given two pairs of congruent legs for each triangle. Like LA and HA, this only applies to right triangles. LL is a special case of SAS. However, LL isn't listed so we'll just be sticking with SAS as the only answer.

Assume that women's heights are normally distributed with a mean given by mu equals 62.5 in,and a standard deviation given by

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

(a) 0.5899

(b) 0.9166

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable that represents the height of a woman. Then, X is normally distributed with

$\mu$ = 62.5 in

$\sigma$ = 2.2 in

the normal probability density function is given by

$f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}2.2}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2)^{2}}}$ , then

(a) $P(X < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}f(x) dx$ = 0.5899

(in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2)

(b) We are seeking $P(\bar{X} < 63)$ where n = 37. $\bar{X}$ is normally distributed with mean 62.5 in and standard deviation $2.2/\sqrt{37}$ . So, the probability density function is given by

$g(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{37}}}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2/\sqrt{37})^{2}}}$ , and

$P(\bar{X} < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}g(x)dx$ = 0.9166

(in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2/sqrt(37))

You can use a table from a book to find the probabilities or a programming language like the R statistical programming language.

Please help me I need this question done by tonight. The amount that a consultant charges for her work can be modeled using a li

nataly862011 [7]

Answer: The consultant earn $50 each hour.

Explanation:

It is given that for 4 hours of work, the consultant charges $400. For 5 hours of work, she charges $450. The amount that a consultant charges for her work can be modeled using a linear function.

If the linear function represents the amount earn by consultant in hours the the coordinates can be written as (4, 400) and (5, 450).

If we want to find how much money does the consultant earn each hour, so first we have to find the slope of linear function which passing through two points (4, 400) and (5, 450).

$\text{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\text{Slope}=\frac{450-400}{5-4}$

$\text{Slope}=\frac{50}{1}$

$\text{Slope}=50$

In the linear function the slope show the earning of consultant per hour, therefore consultant earn $50 each hour.
