You are a landlord, and your tenant complains that you are in violation of the ADA because your wheelchair ramp is too steep. An
Savatey [412]

Answer:

  Not justified

Step-by-step explanation:

ADA requirements are for a slope of 1 in 12 or less, an 8.3% grade, or an angle of 4.8° (actually, 4.764° when rounded to 3 decimal places). The ramp angle found by the assessor is compliant.

  The tenant complaint does not seem justified.

Three students want to estimate the mean word length of the same book. To do this, each student randomly chose 4 words from the
Firlakuza [10]

The solutions to the questions are given below

a)

sample(n) word length sample mean

1                    5,4,4,2    3.75

2                    3,2,3,6     3.5

3                         5,6,3,3    4.25


b)R =0.75

c)

  • The mean of the sample means will tend to be a better estimate than a single sample mean.
  • The closer the range of the sample means is to 0, the more confident they can be in their estimate.

<h3>What is the students are going to use the sample means to estimate the mean word length in the book.?</h3>

The table below shows sample means in the table.

sample(n) word length sample mean

1                    5,4,4,2    3.75

2                    3,2,3,6     3.5

3                         5,6,3,3    4.25

b)

Generally, the equation for is  mathematically given as

variation in the sample means

R =maximum -minimum

R=4.25-3.5

R =0.75

c)

In conclusion, In most cases, the mean of many samples will provide a more accurate estimate than the mean of a single sample.

They may have a higher level of confidence in their estimate if the range of the sample means is closer to 0 than it is now.

Write an explicit formula for an,the Nth term of the sequence 4,12,36
Rudik [331]

Answer:

3^{n}+3^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is geometric (it multiplies the previous number each time). The nth term sequence would be x^n + yn

Because the sequence multiplies by 3 each time, The base number in that equation would be 3^n +yn.

So 3^n of the equation would be:
3, 9, 27.

Compare the 2 equations:
4, 12, 36

3, 9 ,27

The difference between the 2 equations is: 1, 3, 9 which itself is a geometric sequence so the nth term of this new equation is: 3^{n-1}.

Combine these 2 equations together and you get:

3^{n}+3^{n-1}.

When factoring a polynomial in the form ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are positive real numbers, should the signs in the binom
gtnhenbr [62]

When factoring a polynomial in the form ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are positive real numbers, the signs in the binomials should be both positive

<h3>What are quadratic equations?</h3>

Quadratic equations are second-order polynomial equations and they have the form y = ax^2 + bx + c or y = a(x - h)^2 + k

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The form of the polynomial is given as:

ax2 + bx + c

Where a, b, and c are positive real numbers.

Since a, b, and c are positive real numbers. then the form of the expansion would be:

ax2 + bx + c = (dx + e)(fx + g)

<h3>Example to verify the claim</h3>

Take for instance, we have the following quadratic equation

x^2 + 6x +  8

Expand the equation

x^2 + 6x +  8 = x^2 + 4x + 2x +  8

Factorize the equation

x^2 + 6x +  8 = (x + 2)(x + 4)


Hence, the signs in the binomials should be both positive
